    Any reviews of TiborasaurusRex's YouTube Vids?

    Ya, you won't see a huge jump using h4350 in a 260 but using 118 surplus you would no doubt see more.

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    You can"t shoot long range with a second focal plane scope. (Every website on the internet) Scope magnification above 16X will not usually be usable do to mirage. (every website on the internet except Accurate shooters) High powered optics make the rifle tremble (every website on the internet)...

    Any reviews of TiborasaurusRex's YouTube Vids?

    Seen them all. Can't beat the price. He has clearly put a lot of time and energy into the production of this free series. Clearly done a public service sharing his own experience and promoting a better understanding of this type of shooting and the science behind it.. . I also consider Rex and...

    Discomfort when shooting prone due to stock design?

    Your discomfort from prone is going to be ongoing with that stock design. The heal of the rifle is dropped well below the bore line, stock designers have done this in a horrible attempt to direct recoil up instead of straight back in to the shooter. It does provide the intended function in the...

    Rifle Scopes Don't Laugh - Need a scope for a long range Mosin

    I think you would probably be better served with the fixed power swfa or there 3-15x42, given your price range and need for matching turrets. Take my opinion with a grain of salt considering I have NOT used the menace. I really like the high power variables but with matching turrets there are...

    what good is a spotting scope without a decent (front focal) reticlue

    +1 .......... Seriously, a little experience makes up for a lot of little features and even some do-hickey whatchamacallits.. No doubt. . Turrents and reticules are "tactical as fuck".............. and a new classic one liner has bean inscribed in the archives of history. Did this classic...

    Rifle Scopes Looking for a budget scope

    Nikon prostaff: "B" got some, great standard range scope, light weight (great for the money) but probably low on the resale side. bushnell 10x:"A" best.....only $200 turret scope, got some and they really are a compact bargain, lots of adjustment for a 1" tube, lacking paralax adjustment but I...

    Rifle Scopes Any advantages to running a 34or35mm scope?

    If the only advantage of a 34mm is additional internal adjustment compared to a 30mm and most long range 30mm scopes are running 70+ moa of adjustment: I would conclude the only time there would be a significant advantage would be at extreme long range.

    what good is a spotting scope without a decent (front focal) reticlue

    Love reticles but............ magnification is magnification. #1 reason...........Spotting.........Hunting is a much more diverse market share. "tactical" correction is a small sliver of a much bigger market but.............Still got to side with you, just because I would like to see more of...

    Upgrade to a Dillon 550 or buy a Chargemaster?

    550 all the way. As for double charging, I have loaded tens of thousands on my 550 without doing it so......... friends don't let friends drink or text while reloading.

    Range Report How accurate is your chrono??--

    What he said +1K My crono is retired, My numbers always match up and are then adjusted for conditions from the PROVEN base. D.O.P.E...............The oldest, cheapest, easiest and most reliable data possible. . . Many an internet argument was started over that statement right there.

    Big 30 or 33 cal for build?

    Idaho ctd...........Just realized who I am talkng to............ knowing what you know about breaks why would recoil even come up as an issue? :rolleyes: Couldn't help it.

    Big 30 or 33 cal for build?

    I agree you do not NEED it at 800 and that there is not much difference between a 300 rum and a 338 edge...... That is actually my point. They pretty much cost the same, same length in the magazine issues. The 300 has a speed edge were it is not needed, the 338 has an energy edge if you reach...

    Rifle Scopes Picking my first scope for AR308

    Do not be afraid of magnification if you are buying a quality scope. I think magnification range is more personal preference. Most folks make it out to be a strictly application based decision but it is not that simple. How much do you WANT is a better question, granted I don't want any for...

    Rifle Scopes Measuring deer and elk?

    For big game hunting I have two numbers that work really well. #1 close range, often referred to as max point blank. #2 what the Laser tells me the distance is.. I have sean a 4" difference between a nice 4x4 mule dear and a big 4x4 mule dear (and an even bigger 3x3 mule dear), never measured...

    Big 30 or 33 cal for build?

    I have to admit to being a 338 edge fan. I do not shoot factory ammo anymore in any bolt rifles at all anyway. My most important hunting is elk and at eight hundred yards there is just no substitute for the big 300 grain 338. If you try with the 230 grain .30 cal you end up spending all most...
