    Rifle Scopes Edit: Broken LP scope ring

    And the audacity to break something and expect the manufacturer of the product to foot the repair bill is beyond me. I know some companies are willing to but to expect it from them? Further more to get mad when they don't? For God sake! What kind of entitlement culture are we presenting the...

    Rifle Scopes Edit: Broken LP scope ring

    Like I said, they peen the cross bolts on them. If you pull the nut off to replace the clamp it will ruin the nut and it wont hold torque. There is someone on here that said they can fix it if you send it to them though. I looked again but I can't find the thread. I read it some time ago.

    Rifle Scopes Edit: Broken LP scope ring

    I could be wrong all of my NF rings seem to be peened on the end of the cross bolt. Maybe they couldn't sell you a replacement jaw because you removed the nut? If the end of that cross bolt nut is peened and you removed that nut, the rings may be trashed because the threads on the nut will be...

    Rifle Scopes Hard use Recce carbine optic...stumped.

    This is great info, especially when the shooter is trying to judge the size of the target at a known distance. When I'm shooting, I completely leave out the size value of the target in inches of and metric form of measurement. I just like at the world in angle value. For instance, I just look...

    Cadex Strike Dual Chassis with Badger Oversize Bolt Knob

    Well that's good news. Thank you for the input. I'm sure if I cant get it directly from Cadex I can have my machinist remove some material from the front of the slot to allow the recoil lug to fit. Ive had to do this before on other builds.

    Rifle Scopes nightforce

    The zero distance is completely up to you. I zero most of my guns at 200m because it puts me minute of deer or elk out to 300m without having to think about anything. Then generally a mil at 400 meters. Things change more inconsistently between calibers FOR ME beyond that. But it is up to...

    Rifle Scopes Hard use Recce carbine optic...stumped.

    I find Mil reticles to have an easier equation of ranging when ranging in meters. You can range in yards with one and you can range in meters with an MOA reticle. But I generalize it to shooters who shoot in meters to use Mil reticles and those who shoot in yards to use MOA reticles.

    Rifle Scopes New Optic from Nightforce?

    HD1911, Your points are very valid and I, unlike some members see them as points of discussion. Not in any way like an argumentative response. I, while primarily a long range shooter who hunts ricks and steel most of the year and brings gear to drop a bull at long range if needed, am...

    Rifle Scopes What is the differance between the NightForce NXS and the NightForce Benchrest scopes?

    I know I'm going to get beat down for this but I avoid Vortex like the plague. I agree with RobertB at the top. Look around for a used NF NXS. They have more options and are tough as nails.

    Rifle Scopes nightforce

    The 110 BA has a 20 MOA McCann style base on it. A set of Nightforce Extra High or Extreme High rings between the base and optic should get you there unless you need a lot of travel to get to 1000 yds.

    Cadex Strike Dual Chassis with Badger Oversize Bolt Knob

    I currently have two Remington 700 with quite a lot of work done to them chambered in .338 LM CIP. I am extremely interested in a couple Cadex Strike Dual Chassis for them and in the near future, setting them up with forward mounted Night Vision devices (which ones I have not decided yet)...

    Remington 5R .300winmag

    I bought my wife a 5R Mil-Spec in 300 WM. Had a Holland muzzle brake and put an older factory Remington stainless trigger in it and tuned it up a bit. I bedded the stock and had my local gunsmith install a PTG AI mag bottom metal on it. Then I Duracoated the barreled action and bolt Combat...

    Need an answer? was it bulls*** or true?

    You know this is kind of interesting. I'm not saying I believe this or not but sometimes I start in my back yard before heading up the hill. I can get exactly 50 meters out of my yard if my feet are against my house on my back porch and a target is as far as I can see it through some trees as...

    Rifle Scopes Razor 1-6 and NF 1.125" Unimount???

    I don't think you should have any problems with it. I looked at some pics of one and it doesn't seem to drop any more than Nightforce's scopes in the saddle and they fit in it just fine.

    Rifle Scopes What size tube would you prefer on your new scope? 30/34mm

    I'm primarily a dialer. Ever my Horus reticles, I use a combination between turret adjustment and reticle hold over. If I'm shooting long range and need adjustment, I want as large tube. I rarely consider the weight of the optic because I'm superman! LOL

    Rifle Scopes Hard use Recce carbine optic...stumped.

    I have a lot of AR's that are loosely based off military configurations. MK18 Mod 1 & 2's, Mk12's RECCE's and so on. My personal RECCE "type" is topped with an NF2.5-10x24 with a Mil-Dot and Mil turrets. I have a cat tail on it and when I need to range or use the reticle for spotting, I just...

    Rifle Scopes New Optic from Nightforce?

    I called NF on it and they said the MAP price is going to be $975 for models without illumination and $1171 for illuminated models. For the "only in MOA" comment above, I have yet to see a traditional hunter use anything but minutes or IPHY. So I don't think it's a bad move to not include a...
