    Scope base for Savage 110BA (>0 MOA)

    Re: Scope base for Savage 110BA (>0 MOA) I'm probably going to use either the Premier 5-25x56mm or SWFA SS 5-20x50mm scope. Each have ~30 mils / ~100 MOA of elevation adjustment. I tend to do my load-development and validate my zero at the 100yd line, and then dial for elevation. My local...

    Scope base for Savage 110BA (>0 MOA)

    Re: Scope base for Savage 110BA (>0 MOA) Does the EGW base have a cut-out? I kind of like the way the Murphy Precision version doesn't. --

    Scope base for Savage 110BA (>0 MOA)

    I've read EGW makes a 20MOA that sorta fits, but requires the holes be drilled-out to accommodate the #8 screws of the 110BA. I didn't see anything on their website that looked right. Nightforce is rumored to have one, as is Ken Farrell -- again, not on their website, but possibly available...

    338 Lapua (powder, bullet, primer) & Savage 110BA

    I'm going to start ordering components next month. I definitely plan on using Lapua brass, but after that I'm wide open. Trying to shortcut the process of trying a whole bunch of different combinations. I'm assuming 300gr-class bullets. Any specific suggestions? 26" barrel, and C.I.P...

    Re: I'm looking for a good rifle If you can find one, the Savage 99 in 308 is great for hogs too.

    Re: 11mm rings for 30mm and 1 inch tube I thought I saw a set of 30mm rings once that weren't "tall", but I've not been able to find them again.

    Rifle Scopes Geovid vs Victory RF

    Re: Geovid vs Victory RF I have the "Carl Zeiss Optical Inc Victory RF Binoculars (10x45 T RF)". I like them. They do seem a little brighter than the Geovid's, but I think I like the ranging interface better on the Geovids. Could just be because I used my Leica range-finder for years...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA SS 5-20x50mm illum - generational differences

    I noticed on my first one from the previous batch, the parallax knob is marked down to 35-yards. That's what it says on their website too. This one came came with the battery, but not installed. The two from this current batch are only marked down to 50yds, and the battery was presumably...

    Re: SWFA SS 5-20x50mm illum -vs- IOR 3-18x42 SH LT158 I already have the 3-18x42mm. I think it's a gen-2. Figured I might as well use it -vs- taking a beating selling it.
