Rifle Scopes scope recommendations for a newbie
If you're not wanting to break the bank while still getting a quality scope that can serve you for a long time and get you out to distances I would say go with a Vortex Viper, or a Millett. Really does depend on what kind of budget you have I guess, you can get better quality than the ones I...- Metal Gear

Rifle Scopes Vortex scopes
Can't go wrong with a Vortex! I have owned 2 Vortex scopes now, most recent being the Viper 6.5-20x50mm mil dot. I have it mounted on a Savage in 308, and although It has only seen about 100 rounds through it I am very happy with how accurate the turrets track and how clear the glass is. The...- Metal Gear

New Savage build in .223
Wow that is awesome! Hoping to hear some long range shooting results soon with that rig! What kind of load in 223 will be needed to make it out that far? I happen to be local to you, and actually made it to Rayners Range for my first time last month. My regular range is Briar Rabbit in...- Metal Gear

My new long range rifle, Savage 10fcp-k
Well I ended up getting some digital calipers today to try to get to the bottom of why a round I recieved that was reloaded by Freedom Munitions, was very hard to close and open the bolt with. Every round I fired using PMC 147 grain fmj cycled very smoothly, most of the rounds from Freedom...- Metal Gear

My new long range rifle, Savage 10fcp-k
Thanks for all the info guys! I noticed a couple of the remanufactured rounds from Freedom Munitions were really hard to get the bolt closed and open once chambered. I need to get some calipers so I can check length on the various rounds I will use. Reloading will most likely not come into play...- Metal Gear

My new long range rifle, Savage 10fcp-k
Thanks for the welcomes! I will make it out to the range with this rifle hopefully next weekend and see what kind of groups I can get with some FGMM 168 grain, and also some Freedom Munitions 150 grain reloads I got for a great price. Looking forward to hopefully seeing some pretty small groups...- Metal Gear

You should check out the Triad Tactical stock pouches. They come with internal risers if you want added height, they not only look good but are very functional and stay on rock solid.- Metal Gear

My new long range rifle, Savage 10fcp-k
This is my first post here on the Snipershide forum and I just want to share my recent long range rifle build. So, late in 2013 I decided it was time to part ways with my Remington 700 SPS Tactical in 223 and move up to a larger caliber, and better equipment. I have always been a fan of Savage...- Metal Gear
