    Gunsmithing Shot 30-06 through 300wm Accidentally

    Need your advice guys. I accurized a Win 70 pre 64 style action in 300wm for a buddy. He bought a box of ammo the night before. At 4am he loaded his rifle. He saw a little buck and took a shot. The gun just clicked. He jacked another shell and this one went off. He got a little blast from...

    Do Not Damage Your Fusions!!!

    Re: Do Not Damage Your Fusions!!! KL, I did mention that. They said because they were dropped, it voids the warranty. They even read the warranty verbatim for me. I am not looking for a reason to be frustrated with them, but it has been far from dealing with Vortex.

    Do Not Damage Your Fusions!!!

    I have a pair of Bushnell Fusions that were dropped and the left eye piece was bent. It also hit just right on the left strap holder and broke a little chunk off. I sent them in to Bushnell and they told me the warranty was void since I dropped them. I understand if I drove over them, but to...

    Gunsmithing Savage 7mm Problems with pics - Help!

    Rifle Scopes Talk me out of epoxying my base to action

    Re: Talk me out of epoxying my base to action Great guys. Thanks for all the input. Most of these will be on rifles that get shot very little. Maybe 100 rounds a year.

    Rifle Scopes Talk me out of epoxying my base to action

    I am sick of screws loosening up. I want to put some devcon on between the tac rail and action and just screw it down. Should I put epoxy on the screws too? I figure I can always heat it with my heat gun to remove. Thoughts?

    Gunsmithing Savage 7mm Problems with pics - Help!

    Went and shot my friend's savage 7mm and the first 2 shots grouped well, but the third would always fly. I thought of scope bases, rings and scope at first. Took off old and put on new EGW tac base and Warne rings. I switched scopes and it still shot the same. I re-bedded the front lug area of...

    Rifle Scopes * Viper PST Clarity Update *

    Re: * Viper PST Clarity Update * I read numerous reviews, after I found the clarity "issue" and found that people have found the 6-24 clarity to be much better than the 4-16. I have no idea why though. To be clear, I was VERY impressed with every aspect of the scope for the price, just not...

    Rifle Scopes * Viper PST Clarity Update *

    I called Scott and talked to him about clarity of my 4-16. Long story short, the Vortex company really took care of me. I won't go into details, but he said, "If you aren't happy, we aren't happy." They have earned my business and will get many more orders from me.

    Re: Scope? Groups low horiz. dispersion, high vertical 150gr powerpoint, I think. It shot great with bought ammo last year with the same scope. He said it hasnt been dropped and nothing has changed. I guess the big question is, would the scope malfunctioning cause a vertical error only...

    Rifle Scopes Scope? Groups low horiz. dispersion, high vertical

    Re: Scope? Groups low horiz. dispersion, high vertical Just to clarify, I only had two questions. I wanted to list the variables to aid in solving the issue. It is a 7mm mag. I shoot fairly often and do pretty well with my 300rum and 338 edge, so I don't think it is that. Side to side isn't...
