    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    So I was able to get the G3 Vortex on my rifle and get to the range for a quick trip on Tuesday and a good day on Saturday, and from what I see so far I'm very happy with it. I should have waited to get it on my rifle before starting this, but I had a friend ready to take it off my hands if I...

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    I'd love to get there someday, but I think it's over 4 hours from me. One day I'll do an overnight and check it out as it looks really nice there. Atglen Sportsmens Club in Chester county is where I go for High Power silhouette, and this will be my first year in the small bore category. Scott

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    Mike, the zero procedure was at the top of the list of reasons why I wanted the Gen 3 Razor and got rid of my Gen 2. Thanks for putting it like that, finding a good balance is key. Thanks again, Scott

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    yes, actually mostly for small bore silhouette out to 200 yards, which is shot from a bench. It's absolutely overkill for that. I might shoot some rimfire PRS matches with it, and I'll take it to my 1000 yard range and try to get out as far as I can with it. I know it's an excellent optic, I...

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    Thank you for all the replies. I just need to get out with it a bit more and see how it goes, hopefully tomorrow. The zero stop was looking to be the biggest complaint about the Leica, but for $2500, that seems like something I can live with. Do you need to adjust the zero stopover time you...

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    I was amazed how bright it was. And $1900 is an excellent deal for sure. Thanks for the input. Scott

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    I like the way you think. Leica rifle scopes are just about as reliable as other high end manufacturers? Scott

    Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

    So I went to check out the Gen3 Vortex 6-36 and buy it with a 30% off cert, but I wanted to check out the Leica PRS 5-30x and side by side them. I expected to like them both about equally, and leave with the Vortex, which I did, but I really liked the Leica glass, more than I thought I would...

    Manners ELR light stock and rear bag choice

    I have an ABR on an MPA chassis and it's excellent. I still kind of prefer making small elevation adjustments by just leaning into the rifle a bit, sliding it on the wedge rear bag. Also means I should check out a bipod ext thingy, but reaching far up front to lock and unlock the levers is a...

    Manners ELR light stock and rear bag choice

    I ordered a Manners ELR light last February. I know it could still be another 6 or 7 months, but I just emailed to see if they have a timeframe for the batch I'm in... Hopefully we will know soon how long these are taking. I have a beast 2 being built out, and I like an angled butt stock with a...

    416 Hellfire on a 1.47" BAT CT

    I believe the 1.47" is gtg for a Cheytac, otherwise BAT wouldn't sell the appropriate bolt to go along with it. I know of at least one top smith that used the 1.47" with a 9.5x77, but I absolutely understand wanting a larger receiver. Scott

    2nd Opinion (ELR Build)

    How far out will you be shooting at the match? I know someone with a 300 win mag that came in like 2nd or 3rd at an ELR match. If you're squared away and shoot well with your current setup, I wouldn't hesitate to shoot it, assuming you don't have a super thin contour hunting barrel. If you...

    416 Hellfire on a 1.47" BAT CT

    Thanks for the input... The 1.47" BAT CT has the minimum tenon size required to chamber a 416 Hellfire, but I'm also wondering if that's not the best idea just because it just makes it. That 40 inch barrel goes a long way to tame the recoil on your 416. Do you shoot solids in your 33xc...

    6mm BR Norma reamer

    JGS is doing a run in a month or so, and I'll just make a couple modifications to their 1262 print to open the neck a bit and give it a touch more free bore thanks again for the replies. Scott

    6mm BR Norma reamer

    I forgot that Alpha sells reamers... thank you for the reminder. I wonder if all the BR reamers are .274" neck. They have options to choose for the free bore. Are there any cons to running a .274" neck? The neck gets worked a bit more, but shouldn't be s huge deal with Lapua brass. Will a...

    6mm BR Norma reamer

    I'm more concerned about getting the neck right as I don't want to turn necks. Everything I have read says 0.2720" neck is gtg, but I'm not sure how the taper on the reamer would affect this. thank you, Scott
