    Rifle Scopes VX5 hd, NF SHV, or Razor LHT?

    Between a shv and a vx5hd I'd buy another vx5hd. I have two shvs and a vx5hd and the vx5hd glass is significantly better.

    Gunsmithing Switching barrels on a trued 700?

    I talked to the gunsmith who trued the action today. All he did was true the lug and action face. He didn't touch the threads. I've been doing the math on it and it seems smarter to just buy a cheap donor rifle and use that action than to buy another bolt for the action I have. So that's...

    Gunsmithing Switching barrels on a trued 700?

    That's kinda what I'm thinking. I need to quit being a cheapskate and just buy a defiance deviant and be done with it. Lol

    Gunsmithing Switching barrels on a trued 700?

    I've been considering buying a nontrued action and going that route. And just leaving the 223 like it sits.

    I've been looking at the NSS barrels and that's what I'm considering putting on my action.

    Gunsmithing Switching barrels on a trued 700?

    in all honesty I don't know what all was trued on the action. The gunsmith who did the work said unless the action really needed the threads single pointed he was only going to true the action face and bolt lug abutment. So I'm assuming that's all he did.

    Gunsmithing Switching barrels on a trued 700?

    I have a Remington 700 in 223 that I had trued and put a .250 precision ground recoil lug and a shouldered hawk hill heavy Palma 7 twist barrel installed on. My question is can I buy a bolt with a 308 bolt face and lap it to the reciever, then buy a remage prefit barrel in whatever cartridge and...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Do all hunting shotgun?

    I went with the benelli m2 26" in gore optifade camo. Been really happy with it so far. Mainly dove and turkey hunting. No regrets here.

    Gunsmithing Southern Precision rifles (Bugholes)

    I'm planning to have a rifle built in the near future and I'm going to use Southern Precision. I've had them do minor upgrades to my current rifle and have zero complaints and highly respect the guys there. Would definitely recommend from my experience.

    Rifle Scopes VX5 hd, NF SHV, or Razor LHT?

    I agree. When I bought my razor lht I was looking at the leupold vx5hd that has mil turrents and the htmr reticle. I went with the vortex because of the illumination and floating center dot. If leupold had the same offering I would have bought it.

    Rifle Scopes VX5 hd, NF SHV, or Razor LHT?

    I have the razor lht. A vx5hd firedot duplex. And 2 shv's a first and a second focal. The leupold kicks the NF and vortex ass for clarity and illumination. IMO if you're hunting at less than 300 get the leupold.

    KRG Bravo Barrel Contour Balance Question

    I'm running a Remington 700 223 in a bravo with a hawk hill 7 twist heavy Palma finished at 26". I've been happy with it so far , but all my shooting has been prone off a bipod. I've run some dry fire barricade drills and it seems to balance good on the barricade but I haven't really paid much...

    Giraud Power Trimmer vs Henderson Precision Powered Trimmer

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs SHV

    Has anyone on here compared the shv 4-14x50 f1 to the nxs 2.5-10x42 as far as sight picture and clarity is concerned. I'm thinking about buying the nxs for a 308 hunting rifle. I have a shv f1 on my ar10 and I'm curious if nxs is really worth the extra money, over the shv, for something that's...
