    Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them?

    Re: Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them? Many thanks Dylan and Doc for your answers. Looking at this from what I know now I think the VGM might be the best option. The system of adding 10 MOA per fixed position and those positions being the same as the true scope calibration clicks...

    Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them?

    Re: Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them? Doc, I like the idea of using the VGM base like you do. It saves having to re-do a known distance if you were to calibrate in that manner as a result of barometric and altitude changes. This way you also get to work with just the "one" true...

    Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them?

    Re: Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them? Thanks for this Dylanss, the accuracy of the system ... is it a situation similar to a scope where you never get a "true" MOA click adjustment ... for instance on my Nightforces I take them to a tunnel range and test the true movement over a...

    Re: Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them? That is good to hear ... and I take your point about keeping track of the two elevations ... although the STR30-160 from the pic's in the link has a set of graduations stenciled into the rear mount to let you know what it is set on ... which...

    Ivey/VGM adjustable bases - anyone used them?

    I am considering the use of an external base elevation system for my .375CT to enable me to use a scope with a higher magnification range but lower internal elevation adjustment and wonder if anyone on here has tried the same ? From looking at what is available these two contenders seem to be...

    Caliber suggestions for a 700 LA magnum bolt face?

    Re: Caliber suggestions for a 700 LA magnum bolt face? Hi Dave, Getting Bartlien to do a specific barrel for the fatter 178g bullets has always been mooted. If someone timed it right they could pick up the stock others hold and have a fair old "stock pile" to play with ... I guess it would...

    Caliber suggestions for a 700 LA magnum bolt face?

    Re: Caliber suggestions for a 700 LA magnum bolt face? Hi Dave, I heard AI had you busy with .338 chamberings on the Bartliens. Nice work but a bit of a groundhog day ? Your 7mm BooBoo you did for Tony S which I bought from him was a hell of a rifle! Bringing that into F Class over here got...

    Rifle Scopes Why all the Leupold bashing? What am I missing?

    Re: Why all the Leupold bashing? What am I missing? For those who might be interested I can say that in F Class shooting at the top end of the sport there is to the best of my knowledge no one in your USA team for both Open and F/TR using a Leupold. By far the majority of your team use the...

    338 Norma Magnum

    Re: 338 Norma Magnum Speculating here on the "why do it" question.......I suspect RUAG who own Norma are trying to offer a .338 option which would not require the significant cost to many Military Units of buying new .338LM rifles by giving them the chance to upgrade a .308 rifle with new...

    Who makes the best 338 Lapua?

    Re: Who makes the best 338 Lapua? The DSR 1 is the most expensive......but not sure about the best. The bi-pod design and rail slider system is good. The second mag fitting is in the way for certain positional shots such as off the knee when sitting and then needs to be removed to work best...
