    Rem SPS Tac 308 bolt won't close / military ammo

    Re: Rem SPS Tac 308 bolt won't close / military ammo I think you are correct about the chamber being cut to minimum head space. I plan on neck sizing only once I get a batch of cases that will chamber correctly. I just bought 100 WW 308 new brass. The military brass cases are trimmed, full...

    Rem SPS Tac 308 bolt won't close / military ammo

    Re: Rem SPS Tac 308 bolt won't close / military ammo Ok, I know a little bit about case length, OAL etc. I have measured it every way including with the Hornady OAL set with their 308 modified case. The magazine is so short on this rifle that there is no way you are even close to the rifling...

    Rifle Scopes 20 MOA rail, causing my rifle to shoot very high

    Re: 20 MOA rail, causing my rifle to shoot very high Well the vertical post adapter must have been the problem. Removing and re-installing did the trick. The rifle shoots exactly where it is supposed to. Now to work up some loads and start banging steel at long ranges. Thanks for all the...

    Rifle Scopes 20 MOA rail, causing my rifle to shoot very high

    Re: 20 MOA rail, causing my rifle to shoot very high The rail only goes on one way and the BORS will not work with a zero stop scope. My NF does not have a zero stop turrets. I guess I will remove the BORS and start over. The only thing I can think of is that the BORS adjuster that...

    Rifle Scopes MOA concerning rings and rails.

    Re: MOA concerning rings and rails. Thank you for the info. I agree that the rail is big clunky and clanks. The rifle is that way also. I could not afford a big clunky Barrett so the Savage was my choice. These rifles are putting out some pretty impressive targets for the price paid. I...

    Rifle Scopes MOA concerning rings and rails.

    Re: MOA concerning rings and rails. Sorry for the long time in getting back. So I am begining to understand the moa thing with rings and rails. Now does anyone know if my Savage 110BA has a zero rail or built in MOA? I hate to be so ignorant about such things but I am learning. As I said...
