    Rifle Scopes Not quite so long range shooting scope

    I recently picked up my first .308 bolt action and I have a Vortex Viper 6.5-20 scope on there that does its purpose. I've got that Midway special Vortex HS on back-order. I live in San Francisco which is very far from any long range ranges. The closest 100 yard range to me is 50 miles away and...

    Are Seekins rings twice as good as Burris XTR ring

    Re: Are Seekins rings twice as good as Burris XTR ring Holy crap. Didn't know you guys would have 94 opinions on this one matter. Thanks for all the info! Aside from the fit/finish, looks and tacticoolness, are there any performance differences between the Burris and Seekins? Will the...

    AAR: Magpul Dynamics SPR/DMR SoCal 04/17/19

    Re: AAR: Magpul Dynamics SPR/DMR SoCal 04/17/19 I don't think you really have to leave California to be able to get better at shooting. It's an annoyance gun wise in California but has plenty to offer outside of just shooting that not many other places can give.

    Rifle Scopes Best 30mm (tube) scope for 308 w/ $500 budget

    Re: Best 30mm (tube) scope for 308 w/ $500 budget I've got the Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50 without a rifle to put it on and the glass doesn't seem all that great. My Leupold Vari-X 3 1.5-5 has brighter and clearer glass. I've got the Vortex HS midway special on order and Vortex has told me that...

    Stock contour..HELP

    Re: Stock contour..HELP You could always find the dimensions of the barrel you want to put in and call McMillan and see if whatever stock they have will fit that barrel.

    Are Seekins rings twice as good as Burris XTR ring

    Re: Are Seekins rings twice as good as Burris XTR ring I don't have the know how to know if my rings will have good contact with my scope. I'm pretty sure if I mount any kind of rings, that the scope probably won't shift and if they do that's probably the only way I know if they are good or not.

    Are Seekins rings twice as good as Burris XTR ring

    I'm putting together a .308 budget rig with a Howa action, B&C stock yada yada. Rifle costs about $900 and the Vortex HS scope i'll eventually have on there is about $400 (Midway special). I'll only be target shooting with it and will be in a padded hard case when not at the range (no hunting)...

    Tikka heavy barrel

    Other than the tactical, where did all the heavy barreled Tikkas in .308 go? The scout isn't anywhere to be found and I believe the Varmint got discontinued. Will I have to spend $1500 just to get a Tikka heavy barrel? Are they back logged or are they just forcing everyone to buy their Tactical...
