    Rifle Scopes Best Customer Service in the Optics Business

    Re: Best Customer Service in the Optics Business My vote was for leupold because you could run the damn scope over and they would give you a new 1. That to me is a warranty not custom options Nightforce makes you pay for anything that happens to it except for a defect in craftsmanship. I...

    Gunsmithing Duracoat inside barrel

    Re: Duracoat inside barrel have you tried using a bore brush? I've had that happen with dura- coat and robar's rogaurd and the brush got all of it out. I would not use aircraft paint remover. That shit is so potent that im pretty sure it would frost the bore seeing to how most of them have...

    Re: What BMG for LR ? It took a lot of shooting and thanks to an experienced shooter from the 50 cal scene I got that load. Its not like i just poured it in a case and said lets roll.

    What BMG for LR ?

    Re: What BMG for LR ? I have never fired the 408s or 375s but I have fired the tac 50 a lot. I can hit hit a 15in plate at 1000 pretty easily, but not all the time so the rifle/cartridge is not as accurate as id like. I have attempted to recreate Rob Furlongs shot but could only get 2400yds...

    Lead Injection on a Mcmillan??

    Re: Lead Injection on a Mcmillan?? Lead is a bit much for what you want i think. The sniper fill is pretty heavy if you got the whole stock sniper fill it would be enough to tame the recoil that's for sure. But if you want a heavy gun that your not ever worried about having to carry then put...

    What BMG for LR ?

    Re: What BMG for LR ? Check out McMillan the price is high but its 1 hell of a gun. The 50bmg is not a super accurate cartridge but it can get the job done. The 338LM is a far more accurate cartridge.

    Re: Nightforce Im not saying that nightforce scopes aren't good and strong but they are capable of breaking do to mechanical failure. I have used and owned a lot more than 5 nxs and br models and only three failures so it not common but it happens. So if that makes you feel better about...

    Hunting & Fishing What happened here?

    Re: What happened here? Nope, it doesnt take much to break the bones in your throat, and i guarantee that if you got punched in the throat as hard as any bullet would hit even if it nicked you then you would not be able to breath now try moving 100yds without breathing...DEATH

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce

    Re: Nightforce #2 got a demotion. it wouldnt stay on 24" square paper at 200yds with the 50 so i figured it took a dump so i mounted it to the 22 to confirm my suspicion. when i got the scope back it held inside 2.5" at 200yds with the same 50.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce

    Re: Nightforce ALL were mechanical failures 1) 12-42x56: the front lens on the eye piece came loose. Pretty interesting having a $2000 scope rattle like that 2) 12-42x56(not the same as above): would not hold zero on a 22lr, it broke on a 50bmg 3) 8-32x56: scope leaked and fogged up in az...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce

    Re: Nightforce Don't worry about it I have sent a few nightforce scopes back without warranty info without any problems. They have a repair form you copy from there website, fill it out and send it in with the scope and rma number(you get that from them prior to shipping).
