    Tikka T3X TAC A1

    actually I don't mind the look of thge Tikka grip but I'm not a fan of how it feels. I have a spare Magpul MIAD grip with the different front and rear inserts but I'd actually prefer a more vertical grip. someone mentioned they were going to try a MPA EVG Grip. I don't know who that was or if...

    Rifle Scopes How ya like my new scope level?

    ok yeah. I wasn't trying to be a jerk but in this pic, the pin is centered up with the vial, and with the bubble, but the bubble is right against the right vertical marker on the tube. or is it an optical delusion?.. I really like the way it hugs right up against the turret on the sight line...

    Rifle Scopes Best 2-10 ish ffp

    I have a Vortex PST GenII 2-10x32 on a DMR-style carbine. I had the GenI 2.5-10 with the illum bump on the ocular piece. the image was ok but nothing spectacular. I felt the reticle was too small at 2.5x to use without illum so I sold it and mounted a SWFA 1-6. the GenII model is better in...

    Rifle Scopes How ya like my new scope level?

    the pic looks like the pin is offset with the centering bars printed on the vial. just a bad pic? which should I trust - the bars or pin?..

    Gunsmithing Rem 722 .222 caliber conversion

    yeah, maybe I'll just have someone finish the stock and put it together for him. funny thing, the 722 was not a premium rifle in its day but the factory stock still has gorgeous wood...

    Rifle Scopes .22 LR Trainer Scope - $700 Budget

    first of all, I apologize for the rude comment about smoking something. I was trying to be funny the way I joke with my friends but after reading it, it didn't come across that way. I don't have an LRHS but I do have an LRTS and been told that they share the same glass so that's what my...

    Rifle Scopes How Much Scope Do You Really Need?

    yes, I actually meant I would rate them SWFA, Ares, PST2 - low to high. when I wrote that I thought it was clear. sorry for the confusion. I admitted my testing was not scientific or particularly thorough. I isolated it to one comparison at 8x magnification on a cloudy day in dark timber at...

    Rifle Scopes .22 LR Trainer Scope - $700 Budget

    serious question - are you or do you know someone who is connected to Athlon? I ask because I realize that you are a fan of Athlon but I have no idea what you're smoking if you think the Ares is better either optically or mechanically than the LHRS. I own all of the scopes you list above (...

    Gunsmithing Rem 722 .222 caliber conversion

    ah, I didn't even think about the twist. probably 1:12 or so. good point... well, I'm no good at checkering so I'll have to come up with something else. maybe just replace the barrel altogether?.. not much fits on that bolt head...

    Gunsmithing Rem 722 .222 caliber conversion

    my stepdad has a Remington 722 in .222REM that he used to shoot bulleye matches with years ago. it's a factory barrel but it's very accurate. he was hand-checkering a benchrest stock for it but never got around to finishing it. I'd like to do something nice for him and I'm wondering if it's...

    Rifle Scopes How Much Scope Do You Really Need?

    I admitted I don't know very much or have much experience with upper tier scopes. I always bought the best that I was able to afford at the time but none was over $1000. I just picked up a Bushnell LRTSi and compared it to an SWFA 3-15x42, an Athlon 2.5-15x50, and a Vortex PST GenII 2-10x32...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell will not honor 30% off Elite Tactical scopes

    haha, you should have seen me when I was told that the rebate for a free Tikka magazine had to be FILED by the end of February, not purchased and my rifle would not arrive at my FFL until the following week. I went on the warpath. good news here is we actually have a Bushnell representative...
