    Rifle Scopes Are these Burris Zee rings installed correctly?

    Re: Are these Burris Zee rings installed correctly? Yeah - I worried about that when I installed mine. I mucked about and got an equal gap on both sides. I bet in made 2/3 of f-all of a difference! You'll be alright. They are great rings BTW, those inserts are just genius - protect teh...

    Ever just have a shitty day at the range?

    Re: Ever just have a shitty day at the range? Yeah I'm with you Poke - every once in a while "one of those days" rolls around. Like when your out confirming a new load's trajectory before a big hunt, and your friend is shooting half your group size with your own rifle... having had not...

    Rifle Scopes Pros & Cons of Going totally metric

    Re: Pros & Cons of Going totally metric You need a scope that matches - whether mil/mil or moa/moa, you get the same effect. The advantages of base-10 numeral systems are recognised world-wide, that's the way everything's headed. So in that respect, MIl comes out ahead.

    Hunting & Fishing Elk...600 yards...how would you do it?

    Re: Elk...600 yards...how would you do it? Well, it sure ain't the loud noise that kills 'em! I use a 7mm Rem Magnum and a 7mm SAUM for shots on big game out to 1000m. It's more than enough gun given the right projectile choice. What you need is a scope you can dial in, and an...

    Rifle Scopes Coating a scope (body not lens)

    Re: Coating a scope (body not lens) Yeah 50/50, it's one more layer to soak up damage from rocks etc., and also to stop it standing out like a nonbodies business on the mountain-side. Plus it looks cool if it's all matching

    Rifle Scopes Coating a scope (body not lens)

    Re: Coating a scope (body not lens) So if I coat the scope, will it still fit back into the rings? Or will I need to lap them to open them out fifty microns or so? Is there any danger of it getting into the moving parts and wrecking the scope? Maybe coat the barrel+action, small metal parts...

    Rifle Scopes Coating a scope (body not lens)

    Hi y'all, I am considering doing a full protective coating with Cerakote for my rifle's action, barrel, bases, rings and scope. Some questions: 1) Should I consider painting the scope, and other smaller parts, rather than coating them? 2) Should I consider coating the whole scope, or just...

    Re: Some hate mail for you killers... Right-o..... Oh well, I guess she has her reasons, in the same way all insane people do. It's only though modern society that those opinions can flourish, if someone wasn't killing her food for her she'd sing a different tune, or starve/die of...

    Rifle Scopes ring lapping

    Re: ring lapping Perhaps try some rings with felt inserts or self-locating inserts. e.g. Burris Zee, or Sako Optilock. Negates the requirement for lapping altogether. I have a set of Burris Zee's on my hunting-weight long range rifle, it's taken thrashings on the floor of my land cruiser, in...

    Re: New Schmidt and Bender PMII 5-25x56 If you do anything except take your rifle to the range, locking turrents are the best thing since sliced bread IMO. I have had the turrets on my scope move a number of times during various hunting trips, makes for one more thing to worry about...

    Rifle Scopes Butler Creek quit making the 50 and up Flip Ups?

    Re: Butler Creek quit making the 50 and up Flip Ups? Those big plastic ones kept breaking for me - too flimsy for proper outdoor use. Might be one reason to stop making them.
