    Rifle Scopes AI AX50 and S&B PM2 MOA Base Trouble

    Wow, I can't believe it sheared the recoil lugs off the base! I have a Steyr HS.50 with a Steiner 5-25 mounted in Seekins rings and have never had any issues regarding recoil induced movement. Even when it had a USO 3.2-17 T-pal on it (HEAVY!) there were no issues. Maybe you should consider a...

    Rifle Scopes best scope caps?

    Tenebraex are the best as far as I'm concerned.

    Rifle Scopes steiner elevation knob Problem? (binding)

    You should be commended on your efforts to satisfy your customers. I own a 5-25 MSR myself and thus far am very pleased with it. Reading this has made me feel very assured as a customer that if I do have any issues with my optic someone will take a legitimate interest in trying to remedy the...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles vs Steiner

    The S&B 5-25 PMII tunnels at low mag, approx. 5-8x not high mag as you suggest. Actually the Steiner does the same but only initially from 5-5.5x, maybe less. I own both the Steiner and the Schmidt. I don't yet own a Kahles k624 however I would not hesitate to buy a Kahles based on my...

    Rifle Scopes Who has a Bausch & Lomb 10x tactical on their rifle?

    Yes, the SS series scopes were heavily based off of this design. SS's are made by Tasco are they not? Or some kind of association there? While functionally there is probably little between them , These will carry a large premium over the SS series if no other reason than...

    Rifle Scopes Who has a Bausch & Lomb 10x tactical on their rifle?

    Picked it up for $375 all in. Mounted it on my vintage Krico 6.5x55 and shot at 920m today. Impressed. Glass is very nice, could easily make out individual impact marks on a 12"x12" plate painted white. As stated by Ratton, massive elevation. Have it on a 0moa base and still have 46moa up at...

    Rifle Scopes Who has a Bausch & Lomb 10x tactical on their rifle?

    I found two of these at a local gun shop. This sounds cliché but they came in as part of an estate to be sold off.For scope's that are over 20 years old they are in great shape showing light ring marks and the odd rub here and there. I know the history of their origin (XM-25) and their supposed...

    Nice shooting. TRG's become an addiction, I have three and am looking for another (42 in .300 WM).

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    That looks like a real sweet rig in the making! What chambering?

    Anschutz 1827 Fortner Biathlon ???

    Trigger is same as furnished on the 54's. Superb in every regard! User adjustable in every way. Can't comment on the bolt, as I have yet to do any maintenence. I've only put a couple hundred rounds through to this point. I sold off one of two Finnfire Ranges I have to buy this gun and have no...

    Is going to .50bmg worth it?

    I have a Steyr HS 50 that I manage to get out from time to time. They are not expensive to feed if you reload using pulls. This is fine for plinking but to really realize a .50's potential you must use top shelf components. This is where things start getting pricy. I'd say buy one just for the...

    Anschutz 1827 Fortner Biathlon ???

    Yes, the 11mm rail is only on the rear portion of the action behind the ejection port. Many companies make rail risers/extensions that will cantilever far enough forward to allow scope mounting in a conventional way. I recently acquired an older 1827F (90's?) that I have only plinked with using...

    Sako TRG, Benchmark barrel in 243, pics

    I'm hoping with the long barrel and running H1000, I'll get the velocity I'm looking for with very acceptable barrel life. I would prefer to run the D-tacs myself but they are very hard to come by where I live. Berger's are plentiful though. Will be doing barrel break in this weekend. Will have...

    Rifle Scopes steiner elevation knob Problem? (binding)

    Seriously!! Is this your first ever scope with turrets?? Sounds like whatever scope someone sends you, you would find fault with it, probably due to your own ignorance. I have S&B's that I could set the turret up to read between the graduations. None of them do because I'm not an idiot. Why...

    Sako TRG, Benchmark barrel in 243, pics

    Beauty! LOL I just finished a similar project myself. Had a green TRG (non folder) re-barreled with a 28.5" med. palma contour 7.5 twist Bartlein. I went with 6SLR for the chamber. Goal is 105 hybrids at 3200fps.

    Tikka questions

    The aluminum recoil lugs have only been an issue on the larger chamberings, specifically .338win. I would not even let this factor into the equation as far as making a decision on buying a Tikka. My 595 MasterSporter and the newer version T3 Sporter I owned both shot better than any bone stock...

    Rifle Scopes steiner elevation knob Problem? (binding)

    I'm not implying there was nothing wrong with your previous scopes but I have found it to be common with many scopes that have some type of 2nd rev. indicator that at the transition between the revs some change in feel or resistance is normal. My Steiner 5-25 certainly exhibits additional...
