    A few patches down the bore then shoot it.

    Rifle Scopes RPR set up help

    Butt pad isn’t visible in that pic. It’s completely obscured by my arm. I see my left hand (in a black/white mechanix glove), the lower pic rail for attaching a monopod, and down below my arm is a small rear squeeze bag that hangs from the butt stock by 550 cord so it doesn’t get lost upon...

    I have a 5-25x on there. I really don’t ever use it over about 12-14x. Too much zoom and you get lost too easily. Your 3-18x is fine. You can outshoot the rifle with that.

    Okay, another thing that comes to mind: There are several different variations of mag release extensions that go in by way of a single screw. These are ambidextrous and make changing a mag much easier. CTK makes one that’s available in Midway for about $37. I don’t have one on mine but have...

    One few more things: The bolt shroud is the black tubular extension on the rear of the bolt. Some of them were covered under a recall. You can check Ruger’s website to see if yours was affected. I don’t really even remember what was wrong with it. But they will send you a replacement. A lot of...

    Eustice reigns supreme

    Haha. Thanks for that. It was an easy deal. The guy I bought them from did the same for me. You made the deal easy. Fast payment.

    Rings: Not sure what objective size you have because you didn’t post it and I’m too lazy to google it. But you’ll want 1.4” or higher. Not to worry because there is an adjustable cheek riser that goes pretty high. The odds of you buying rings that are too high are slim. I like NightForce...

    More than 2 scope rings?

    He’s saying make something that attaches to the pic rail in front of the forward scope rings. It can have arms that come up around the scope tube that will attach to a picatinny rail that’s sits above the scope tube/objective bell. There is no weight or pressure on the scope rings as the rail...

    Washington DC Trip - looking for suggestions

    Udvar Hazy Air&Space Museum in Chantilly by Dulles is awesome. Enola Gay, space shuttle, and an SR 71 Blackbird are hard to beat. Edit to fix what autocorrect did to me.

    Not sure where you’re getting that from his post.

    More than 2 scope rings?

    I saw it done on a rifle but it was the .950 JDJ. The extra ring was needed because of the recoil.

    Maggie’s Stupid Games- She got a stupid prize

    So I’ve read about 10 articles that all say the same thing. One thing that isn’t mentioned is anything about the driver of the car that hit her, other than they were let go. Driving without insurance isn’t legal. If they didn’t have it at the scene why were they let go?

    Maggie’s Stupid Games- She got a stupid prize

    Wait, she got hit by a person who didn’t have insurance? Was the driver who hit her verified as an illegal, er... undocumented, uh... non-legal resident?
