    Rifle Scopes Elite 10x or SS 10x

    Re: Elite 10x or SS 10x I highly recommend the swfa scopes. I have owned both the moa and mil versions. For the money the 10HD is a great buy. It would be a very good learning tool as it is mil-mil ffp. The glass is excellent and they track perfectly. It is a good investment as you will not...

    Too much? Badger FTE Brake for Rem700 308

    Re: Too much? Badger FTE Brake for Rem700 308 Does not change accuracy. It will allow you to feel more comfortable behind the 300 wm. I usually back bore the rifling past the threads, but its up to your smith. I have seen several remingtons improve thier accuracy after installation. This...

    remy 700 badger base bedding

    Re: remy 700 badger base bedding Also check the integral recoil lug of the base. Some do not make contact with the reciever. I think that is a Remington issue. Squirting some loctite under the base before tightening will help to keep out the rain and prevent rust. I have had several that...

    Rifle Scopes Deployed troop seeking advice

    Re: Deployed troop seeking advice Amen. Things are just as bad at home. As an ER nurse I see people that are in our country illegally get whatever they want for free while at the same time Tricare just gets worse.

    Gunsmithing Optical bore sighter, thoughts?

    Re: Optical bore sighter, thoughts? At 100 yards take the bolt out and look down the bore. You will see many concentric rings. Line the rings up like apertures with the target in the middle. Then click your scope over to the target. With practice this gets me almost zeroed before I ever...

    What's your favorite barrel contour?

    Re: What's your favorite barrel contour? kreiger heavy palma at 20 inches with 1.25 inch cut off the rear. That seems to be a good balance between weight and portability. Length makes a huge difference. Also the shorter the barrel the lighter you can go and still keep it stiff. I would not...

    XLR vs. AICS

    Re: XLR vs. AICS Just had a trigger screw loosen on me with the xlr and it was not easy to fix in the middle of nowhere. The aics is nice because I can take the action out quickly and fix any issues. Probably not a real issue for most, just makes me feel better knowing I can fix just about...

    XLR vs. AICS

    Re: XLR vs. AICS The xlr must be broken down into pieces to access the trigger. That is a deal breaker for me. I have learned to love the aics.
