    polymer vs. forged vs billet

    I'd stick with the forged or billet lower. Forged will actually be a little stronger than billet, but billet has that newer high-tech look a lot of shooters are looking for. The strength difference is nominal between forged and billet. If you go with a billet lower, you might want to ensure...

    Rifle Scopes Choosing scope. Fixed vs Variable.

    Re: Choosing scope. Fixed vs Variable. Shooting a scope dialed UP T0 20 power off-hand without support is difficult. The slightest muscle movement and your reticle is bouncing around off target. If it is all going to be bench work, then no problem with 20 power. The .300 Wthby Mag is an...

    Rifle Scopes Am I nuts?

    Re: Am I nuts? +1 for getting a period correct scope for such a nice rifle. Realize however it doesn't have to be German. When the Nazi's invaded Europe the pillaged anything, from all conquered, to further their war effort. Who else made glass in that period? Sounds interesting to me.

    Rifle Scopes Pick a new scope for me

    Re: Pick a new scope for me I hear Leupold VX-6's are innovative. I too am a Leupold guy. I have the Leupold VX-6, 2-12 x42mm illuminated dot on order, and should get it by the 5th of July. LEUPOLD VX-6 A bonus is that you can have a BDC dial free of charge for your flat shooting cartridge...

    Rifle Scopes Optic for inside 300 yds

    Re: Optic for inside 300 yds Those Remington 600's are a classic. I couldn't find one, so I went for a Model <span style="font-style: italic">Seven</span> in the rare .300 RSAUM. Great lightweight and short barrel for mountain hunting where most shots are under 300 yards. One of my favorite...

    Rifle Scopes Best AR/Carbine Scope under 400?

    Re: Best AR/Carbine Scope under 400? If you are shooting under 400 yards why do you need a mil reticle? You can pretty easily 'guestirange' targets and animals under 400 yards. Also if you know your ballistics, you can easily hold-over or come-up pretty quickly without doing the math...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold TS-30A2 Scopes as Military surplus?

    I am aware of a person selling Leupold TS-30A2 scopes in varying conditions. Are these scopes legally available as military surplus? If so, should the serial #'s or model #'s be obliterated? EDITED TO ADD: The TS-30 A2 is the Marine Corps version of the Mk 4, 2.5-8 x 36mm Ill. MilDot. What...

    AR10 vs Bolt Action

    Re: AR10 vs Bolt Action All of my .308 gas guns are Armalite. Their new model that shoots the inexpensive P-mags is a good idea. Gas Guns are fun, and with a good barrel are pretty accurate. There will be a point where you accuracy will flatten out if shooting factory ammo, or being...

    Rifle Scopes Custom BDC

    Re: Custom BDC So how can you sell these and make any money at it? Different scope dials have different circumferences. How can you make the readouts for dials you don't have in front of you? If it was just a personal project, it looks sweet!
