Re: Teludyne Straight Jacket? Who has had it done? I built a .308 Win rifle using the Teludyne system. I have just started working with it and developing loads for the rifle. So far I am very happy with my rifle and very impressed with the work done by Teludyne. Here's a write up I did on...

Re: Plastic Bolt Knob? I have one on an Ultra Light Arms .308 hunting rifle. Works great and it didn't add much in weight to the rifle. I did the semi permanent attachment with epoxy and I couldn't be happier.

Re: NFNXS 2.5-10X32 best hunting ret? I have the Medium Velocity on my .308 bolt action that I use for deer and bear. It works great out to 600 yds.(at the range, on deer my longest shot to date is 160 yds). with my handloads and selected 150-165 grain commercial ammo the reticle is a...

Re: You tap a scope? Trijicon recommends rapping the side of an ACOG sharply with the palm of your hand after each adjustment to make sure the internal mechanism is seated. Just sayin...

Re: Nightforce capped turrets I have the 2.5-10 with MV reticle. I don't experience the problem you are describing. While the threads are finer than I have experienced with other brands they go with no extra force necessary and certainly not enough to activate the adjustment knob.

Re: NightForce NXS 2.5-10X32? I have mine on a .308 NULA and love it! Great glass, tough construction, a simple usable reticle and illumination. It replaced my Accupoint 1.25 - 4 amber triangle because I didn't want to be limited to PBR. Now I use it to 600 yds. with the M- Velocity...
