    .30-06 rifle build, input appreciated

    Re: .30-06 rifle build, input appreciated I agree with Graham...What is your intended purpose and what is your definition of tactical / target. I mess around with some BR ( benchrest shooting ). While I can use my BR rifles for varmint hunting...they are too heavy and long barreled to ever...

    6.5x47 vs 308

    Re: 6.5x47 vs 308 I think you're going to be impressed at the performance of the 6.5mm bullets. I have a couple of .308's and a .260 Improved...which has similar ballistics of the 6.5x47. Significantly less elevation and windage needed when shooting at longer distances...600+ yards. Either...

    Remington 700s

    Re: Remington 700s I would be +3 on the Milspec 5R. It definitely shot more accurately than the PSS I owned as well....in fact the PSS was sold after seeing the results of the Milspec. This was my first, honest 1/2 moa factory rifle...using FGM ( Federal Gold Match) ammo.

    Rifle Scopes Best compromise scope - ideas?

    Re: Best compromise scope - ideas? You should really provide what your budget is...many choices to pick from with what specs you've provided so far. My first impression would be for you to check out a NightForce NXS 5.5-22X...you pick the front objective 50 or 56mm..they weigh in at 31 and...

    Re: SH has the New Kahles Tactical in Hand I can't wait to read your write-up L.L. Will be nice to hear when it's available and what the street price will be.

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recommendations

    Re: Scope Recommendations I second the Super Sniper recommendation as well...but the Viper is also a nice option. I've been happy with every NightForce base and ring set that I've ever purchased...can't go wrong there either.

    need a new trigger

    Re: need a new trigger I swapped my pre-X triggered Rem. 700 with an L-1 K. I found this to be an extremely easy project and was a definite improvement over my factory trigger. If this is a viable option for you....I would recommend it highly...great trigger and a great company backing...

    Rifle Scopes $1000 limit. Long range prairie dogging scope

    Re: $1000 limit. Long range prairie dogging scope I really think you'd be happy with either the 6-24x or the 8-32x SS LRMOA scope. 24x for 500 yard is really pretty decent. If you want to stretch it our further then probably the 8-32x. Good Luck, Wayne

    Rifle Scopes $1000 limit. Long range prairie dogging scope

    Re: $1000 limit. Long range prairie dogging scope I've got two Sightron SIII's and think they are a real strong value for their price point. One of my scopes is an 8-32X...which has optics that are nearly identical to an 8-32X NightForce I used to own. I would second the S III SS 8-32x56...

    Rifle Scopes Strategies for choice of scope/optic zeroing range

    Re: Strategies for choice of scope/optic zeroing range I think there are many facets to your question. First being, as you mentioned, What round are you using? A .308 has different handling characteristics versus a 50 BMG rifle...the 50 takes a few hundred yards to stabilize so a 100 yard...

    Rifle Scopes The perfect for my use

    Re: The perfect for my use BTW, IOR sources their glass from Schott...just like S&B and Zeiss. IOR has a close relationship with Zeiss....Zeiss shares their coating technology with IOR. So...you are getting premium German sourced glass and coatings. Wayne

    Rifle Scopes The perfect for my use

    Re: The perfect for my use Yes...I had a 6-24x...an early gen 1 or 2. This was my first exposure to German Glass. The optics are absolutely fantastic. I could really get a sense of depth looking through this scope, almost 3D. My only problem with the scope was...dialing settings...the...
