    Rifle Scopes YUUUUUUUUGE S&B sale

    Got the email blast as well. Just got off the phone with Tyler who was extremely helpful! Fortunately my wife wanted a new optic on her rifle, so I bought 3 at those prices. 2ea 5-25 h2cmr & did the unthinkable, bought a 3-20P4F. Maybe that one will get a reticle change at a later date besides...

    Unertl Spotting Scope on eBay for a steal...

    I finally got the time to compare the Unertl to the M49 @ 710yds. I had 2 people providing feedback on the perceived resolution. Both of us feel the Unertl has better contrast & a sharper image. With my eyes the Unertl seems to have approx. 10% better contrast while my friend who has...

    POSSUM HOLLOW still in business ?

    If I remember correctly Eric moved to florida several years ago to take care of his parents. His son was taking care of the Kwick case trimmers but Eric was still making the bore guides as of about 2 years ago. Hopefully he is still in business, real nice person to deal with!

    No problem i'll do a partial write up with all the requested data once it arrives. Heading out with a few friends to our longer range on the 26th if the weather stays nice & will do a comparison review on both out to 710 yds. My aging eyes have issues with contrast which is the main reason I...

    Unertl Spotting Scope on eBay for a steal...

    The tripod on the Unertl I bought will fit in a M49 tripod case, basically same design from all suppliers. Not sure about the scope fitting my spare M164 case but i'll find out soon enough.

    Thanks for the heads up! Been looking for one for a while now. Been using my model "T" M49's for years & they have always been good enough but the unertl may have better contrast which will help my aging eyes.

    Longer, heavier barrel

    Couldn't tell you about the 300wm but I'm running modified heavy varmint profiles (1.25" out 5" then straight taper to 1" at the muzzle) at 28-30" finish length on a few Pierce short actions & they don't have any issues in my AICS stocks. All shoot fantastic!

    Rifle Scopes In need of honest opinions for some old man eyes...

    I tried adjusting my diopter without using my glasses. I found out that I was almost completely out of diopter adjustment, maybe 1/16 of a turn left so this option is out for me. What I've found out is that different scopes coatings or the way they are built make a huge difference for me. My...

    HK91 sharpshooter

    After HK developed the PSG1, they developed several other interesting "target" versions of the HK91. WE all know this as the PSG1. It originally came with a 6x Hensolt scope. The later ones had a 10X scope. The MSG 90 closely followed the PSG1 but having a lighter weight & still had the...
