    Rifle Scopes Glass????

    Why not the new 3-15 SWFA for some versatility.

    Rifle Scopes Dumb question?

    Yeah that's an easy one. No problem I bet! Those things have been shot and worked. No guarantees of course, but I'd bet it will hold up with no problems at all.

    Rifle Scopes Falcon Menace or Vortex Viper

    Never looked through the falcon, but based on just my review reading and numerous threads about problems with the falcon scopes, I'd suggest the vortex viper. I've owned and used the viper and the viper pst. To me either one is well worth the money spent on em. The viper has pretty good glass...

    Rifle Scopes My Thoughts on getting new optics

    Well before using a S&B I'd have said why would you pay that much for an optic! Now, after shooting behind one for a week a distance, I'd say they are worth the money and if it were within your means, then you should get one. Will it make you a better shooter, well that's debatable, but it...

    Gunsmithing Stock smithing

    I'd probably take off a little more, but all in all if a single piece of paper fits it should be alright. There shouldn't be much flex there, but I personally would want to know for sure.

    Gunsmithing Heavy Barreled build Question

    I suspect it would be best, but I'm no professional. I've read about it and it seems several do, but then a lot of people don't want any bedding in front of action at all. I'd think that heavy sucker would droop though! I'd be interested in hearing what some more experienced fellas have to say...

    Rifle Scopes help choosing optics

    Now that's a pretty tall order there! I doubt you'd need that much mag for only 600yds. For that budget you're going to be hard pressed, but not impossible, depending on the quality of glass. Mueller has some and I've heard decent stuff on em. Maybe look on opticsplanet at reviews. Maybe look at...

    Rifle Scopes First (big) optics purchase

    Personally I'd look at the new 3-15 or at least something that was 2.5-10 power. You'd be surprised what 600yds looks like even when it's magnified.

    Rifle Scopes Another "which scope thread" for LEO

    I used a Schmidt & Bender 5-25x56 at a recent LE sniper school (my first, so I'm pretty new to this). For a closer shot, which is typical, I'd have preferred a lower mag than this. We shot to 600yds and I absolutely loved it at that distance. I was leaps and bounds ahead of the others. Most were...

    Rifle Scopes The truth about Leupold thread

    Well I've owned 1 mk4 4.5-14x50 lr/t illuminated mildot. No real complaints on it's working order. I did however think the glass was overrated for the price. When compared to a PST the glass was no better. When compared to the regular viper, the glass was maybe marginally better....maybe. Not...

    Any reviews of TiborasaurusRex's YouTube Vids?

    Well I watched one so far. The 1st one is alright I guess. 1st 4 minutes were intro I think. I'll give em some more viewing before deciding to be fair. In the mean time I'll see what else I can find. Bought the 1st dvd from rifles only, so we'll see how that goes. I've also viewed some of the SH...

    Rifle Scopes Just traded up in Scopes!!

    Nope, but I know the PST was a pretty solid optic when I had one. I don't see why this would be a bad option, based on that. I like Vortex and have had really good luck with their products. So I'd say you'd be ok, unless you trade a NF or USO for it.

    Help with recoil management

    Could it be the stock not located in the shoulder pocket correctly? I'm just throwing that out there, but I know if it's too far out on the ball it will kick it to the side. I don't know why a brake would effect the direction of recoil, but simply reduce the amount of felt recoil. Again just my...

    Please double check my math.

    12x27.77/1.1=302.94yds is what I get. So I'd say you're pretty well spot on.

    Any reviews of TiborasaurusRex's YouTube Vids?

    I saw them, but haven't really watched any of them. I think I might give em a shot, since I waste a lot of time on the introwebonet anyhow! The only issue I have with YouTube is the validity of any video there and by that I mean, does a guy really know what he's doing or is it some dude posting...
