    Scope recommendation for FV-SR

    The Nikon scope mentioned just above works well on the FV-SR in Tacticool I put together for my wife. Dropped a crow out of a tree @ 93 yards last year with CCI SS HP through AAC Aviator: KaClick--WHOP!

    Rifle Scopes T3 CTR pic rail and rings questions?

    Anyone know whether rail on new CTR is 0 or 20 MOA? Can't find online; rather have root canal than call Beretta. Also need recommendation on lowest and lightest rings for Leupold Mk4 w 40mm obj. Or VX3 w 50mm. Waiting impatiently for my . 260, which is going to be mostly a hunting rifle, and...

    SBR'd bolt actions?

    ptaylor, those are outstanding ranch/truck guns! I've thought of SBRing a TC Contender frame and threading pistol barrels in .22LR, .223, 6.8 SPC, and .357 and .44 Magnums for strictly subsonic usage.

    CTR or LTR

    Get both! I say this because I've had my LTR .308 since '06 and it's rarely shot more than .5s; last two 3-shot groups were .323 Ctc w 165 Fed 165 TBTs and .349 w 150 Fed PowerShoks. LGS promised I'd have 1st Tikka CTR .260 in Mid-South soon. Can't hardly wait! Pondering a Silencerco Harvester...

    Help me find a quality precision rifle under $1000

    Rem LTRs can be had for less than a grand. Mine shoots .3s-.5s. If they'd start threading the barrels and make them in .260 I'd get one in a flash.

    Comprable alternative to 700 AAC-SD?

    This caught my eye tonight... Was thinking T3 Lite SS 7mm-08, trim to 19 in., press fit collar thick enough to thread, then I saw this as new option for 2014, with more features and can-ready and under 8lbs. Sans scope AND in .260!: Tikka T3 CTR

    Any scope recommendations for a IPSC Mini-rifle ?

    I watched a video and read the regs. Looks like fun, sorta 3-gun style w .22s. A decent red dot looks like it'd be fine on any of the targets I saw. Or just drop a Bushnell Banner 1-4x with the Circle Dot reticle on it for about $75. If ya wanna use up more of the $300 you could get one of the...

    Muzzle Devices on Shorty Bolt guns

    Do a search for the Quiet Brake Shield from Simplistic Shooting Solutions. Kinda like a Noveske Krink but screws onto AAC or YHM brakes. Adds 5 oz. though. Have not used one; ran across write up trying to figure out how to jazz up my bone stock LTR.

    Rifle Scopes red dot sight on top off scope?? any good??

    Set the scope on 4x and run that bolt fast. Consider a bayonet or ballbat inside 5 meters. :D Seriously, go to YouTube and look for Sauer 202 hunter's video.
