    Re: Manner vs. Mcmillan I have a Mcmillan, and I am just waiting on a Manner's. One thing I can say about dealing with Manners is that their customer service has been top notch and their predicted time scales bang on. If their stock are as good as their customer service, (and I fully...

    Rifle Scopes What magnification for 1000m shooting?

    Re: What magnification for 1000m shooting? The other thing to consider is the bulk and weight of the scopes. The S&B x5-25's have 56mm objectives while their x4-16 and x3-20 both have 50mm objectives. I have a x4-16 and like very much, but I'd have probably gone with the 3-20 had it been...

    Why the M40?

    I am just wondering why the M40 of all vintages seem so highly regarded here, and yet you hardly ever hear of people lusting after M24? Besides the M24 being a long action, what other differences are there? I believe both use the same 40x Remington action for instance??? As the Maries build...
