    Good Builder for a Tikka 595 based build?

    Re: Good Builder for a Tikka 595 based build? Sometimes the best way to narrow your search is just to call Mac Tilton at 805 720-7720. http://www.mtguns.com Nobody has built more precision Tikka 595s than Mac Tilton.

    Sako TRG 338 LM vs. Custon Setup.

    Re: Sako TRG 338 LM vs. Custon Setup. The TRG 22/42 is the Ultimate platform production rifle. Buy used, save some $$ and get a new barrel Order a standard .472" & .531" bolt body from Beretta USA and have the ultimate switchbarrel rifle. Used .338LM is pretty dicey. How many rounds down...

    Larue Stealth snipers- any good?

    Re: Larue Stealth snipers- any good? Worth it? Some guys go gaga over a rifle that is loaded with logos... You want a precision Ar-15 upper, you don't buy one with a "quadrail" of any type on it. Are you a for-real, hard-holding SOB who can fire sub-moa groups all day long from an...

    Photos Another barrel for my M2008

    Re: Another barrel for my M2008 What a strikingly beautiful rifle! Watch your pressures with a "tight bore" Are you a moly shooter? Might be fun to try with a good cast bullet if you want to see what that barrel will really do.

    Rifle Scopes Vari-X III 6.5-20x40 EFR AO scope?

    Re: Vari-X III 6.5-20x40 EFR AO scope? There is not much elevation potential in the 6.5-20 Leupolds, 50moa total, unless you go with a mk4. 50moa total windage and elevation means maybe you get a range of 23moa of movement in any direction from the mechanically or optically centered reticle...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver FFP tactical scope

    Re: Weaver FFP tactical scope The Battlefiled optic doesn't need to differentiate between mole color of identical quint subjects at 1200yds or allow such total .1mil precision turret movement. The tiny precision has to cost way more than more gross movements would, even if just as precise...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver FFP tactical scope

    Re: Weaver FFP tactical scope Yeah, hold-offs are fast; but unless you are wearing a Leather Shooting Coat, Cuffed-up in a Very Stout shooting sling, and have a stout Free-Float tube or full-length aluminum ribbed forearm in your stock; no one can shoot with much accuracy that way. Can any...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver FFP tactical scope

    Re: Weaver FFP tactical scope Regarding who is "serious" and who is not: Actually, THE bullet proof system for sniping, which is Minute Of Rib Cage hit capability, IS The Leupold M3 turret with matched cam. Yeah, I understand the capabilities of a matched reticle to turret; but to my...

    Rifle Scopes Which binoculars? - I am totally new.

    Re: Which binoculars? - I am totally new. I had Steiner Military Marine 8x30s, individual focus, very nice quality; except they fogged the first time I ever "challenged" them in the outback. You want shirt pocket size? Zeiss armored 8x30 BTP are about the best small binocular for durability...

    Rifle Scopes Windage issue, need help!!

    Re: Windage issue, need help!! None of the picatinny railed forarms ever lineup, unless the receiver is an integral unit sold with a matched handguard. Glad you got your scope back on track.

    Rifle Scopes ? for Burris XTR Guys

    Re: ? for Burris XTR Guys Have a 3-12x w/illum ballistic mil-dot. Turrets are very good and track fine. 16moa per revolution. Almost 100moa of elevation on my application. Turret movement is 6+ complete revolutions of elevation from a 100yd zero. I like the reticle very much, prefer the...

    Rifle Scopes redfield base

    Re: redfield base Do yourself a favor and ditch the STD scope mount "system". The rear support is about non-existent. I have a set of Win 70 matte bases in dual dovetail and a few sets of matte rings I will give you a deal on; if you don't want to go picatinny or weaver base. The STD...

    Gunsmithing Standared barrel in varmit style stock.

    Re: Standared barrel in varmit style stock. I have used a Sendero stock with a Rem BDL barrel and it looked very good. Have one rigged up right now on a PSS barrel, and the barrel channel is not excessive; looks fine. The PSS with its wide forend does look a bit awkward with the slim bdl...

    Rifle Scopes Good mount for AR10 for 1,000 yrds

    Re: Good mount for AR10 for 1,000 yrds Not really any discussion on the "for 1000yds" aspect of the query. Is the AR-10 in .308win, even with 175gr matchkings, feasible at 1000yds? I know the boltgun guys have to shoot max loads to get there. Can't do that with an AR10 at least not with...

    H4350 and 308

    Re: H4350 and 308 Not the Best Choice, but undoubtedly better than using a mortar & pistle to grind up sulphur, saltpeter and charcoal. Varget, RL15, IMR 4064/4895 even 3031 plus win ball and vita vourhi powders are much better choices if you have access to the powder. For sure you don't...

    Loading solids in 338

    Re: Loading solids in 338 Longshot, You are really making some dangerous suppositions! #1, How much bearing surface difference is there between bullets? You cannot just go by weight. #2 A Super-Mag case like .338 lapua with 10% less powder charge could be unsafe and prone to detonation...
