    Rifle Scopes Opinions on Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50

    Re: Opinions on Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 I have the 4-16pst SFP Ebr1 MOA. Only issue that I have is with the illumination, but could have been the cheap battery that came with the scope. Vortex did send me a replacement battery cover to fix the original issue of the illumination not working...

    Precision trainer build- Sako Quad vs CZ 455 PT

    Re: Precision trainer build- Sako Quad vs CZ 455 PT Quad has a lower bolt lift and action seems beefier/larger than the 455. Easier to put a larger bolt knob on the Quad, do not need to remove the stock on the Quad to switch barrels, Quad has a really nice trigger as OEM. (Some quads have...

    CZ 455 Has Arrived!

    Re: CZ 455 Has Arrived! Adco can do the barrel threading as well but Hooper can also do the bolt knob job and replace the bottom metal and everything else on your list. I am building something similar except with a lighter barrel, 455 American with Manners stock... 3 barrels I have a DIP...

    Tacticool or Rimfire Hunter

    Re: Tacticool or Rimfire Hunter I would have said the rimfire hunter. It seems that Boyd uses a softer wood or less resin on the Tacticools, not as durable as the rest of the laminate stock lineup. I modified a CZ stock's inletting for a 455 only to have it crack between the action screw...

    Purchase bolt with barrel?

    Re: Purchase bolt with barrel? Some of the Lothar Walther barrels are sold with the bolt heads... The LW-50 on my AR10 came with the fitted bolt head, made swapping it easier as no worries about headspace.

    Magpul MOE handguard or Quad Rail?

    Re: Magpul MOE handguard or Quad Rail? Could grab a Nordic free-float handguard tube and slap a few rails on it. (cheaper than the JP V-Tac but same concept)

    AR10 Gas Port for LW50 barrel?

    What is the average size gas port size for a 20" LW50 polygonal barrel with rifle-length gas system? I installed a restrictor inside the end of my gas tube and am drilling it out to get the rifle functioning without overgassing. .073" was severely undergassed resulting in "outty" primers...

    Need help - AR10 cycle problem

    Re: Need help - AR10 cycle problem Did you re-center the gas block after installing the handguard? Try the OEM buffer, if it works the same by almost ripping off the heads of the cases then the gas port is fine, if not then it is a place that needs attention. Does the Cam pin have any...

    DIP Inc. Backorder Time?

    Re: DIP Inc. Backorder Time? Which rail? I received a 25moa 11mm extended rail last week... I emailed them and they said the rails are out of stock and will be in stock in a few weeks, then received my full order in the same week after placing it. (mag housings, screws, striker springs, rail)

    Rifle Scopes Viper PST 2nd time sending back

    Re: Viper PST 2nd time sending back I have a $2000 ST-17 USO with a loose piece of dust that floats around on the inside... Sometimes it gets on the reticle lense and sometimes it's somewhere else. If that makes you feel better? (No I haven't sent it in for repair, a shake or bump then it...

    Max magnification for hunting

    Re: Max magnification for hunting 4-16x would be ideal under most conditions, 2.5-16x would be better under certain circumstances like scanning at shorter ranges that require a larger FOV. The 16x on the top end for zooming up, most times on a hot day any higher magnification will give you...
