    Just opened a package from Jon Beanland...

    Nice rifle, I just sent some parts to Jon. He seems like a great guy to deal with.

    6.5mm build???

    .260 if you don't reload, either can easily get to 600, 1:8 if you're wanting to use 140s. Zak from TBAC wrote a great article comparing the 6.5s.

    xlr delays

    I'm at 10wks now but it's not a big deal, estimates are estimates. Is one or two weeks more really that big of an issue, especially in this industry?!

    hows the B&C tac adjustable stock

    I really like my B&C medalist adjustable, absolutely no complaints at all. I have fondled some McMillans & Manners, they are super nice. Maaaaybe a little better finish but, for me, I really couldn't justify the additional cost & the B&C fit me perfectly. Just my $0.02.

    Off-centered scope

    Well I tried mounting the scope with leupold mark 4 rings and I appears to have the same issue. I then remounted the scope back with the XTR rings and bore sighted. To my surprise, the windage was damn close to the center of the scope set at zero internal windage. Topstrap: I think you're...

    Off-centered scope

    It looks as though the scope is angled (not parallel to bore). I've got some mark 4 rings I can try to see if its the rings ( I'm hoping its the XTR rings that are the issue). Marksman, I wouldn't mess with the internals of the scope, I meant adjusting the windage when zeroing. Sorry if I was...

    Off-centered scope

    Hmmmmm... They are indeed XTR rings. I'll test that theory tomorrow. This may be another instance of you get what you pay for. GME, that is a brilliant way to test, definitely will do.

    Off-centered scope

    Great points guys. The yawing factor makes total sense, I had a feeling I was making it easier in my head than it actually was. I think I may just shoot it at various ranges to see how much error there is. Unfortunately I already had the barrel shortened & threaded before I found the issue...

    Off-centered scope

    Once the scope is zeroed arbitrarily at 100yds (windage is adjusted for being off-centered) it would then be right on despite any change in range. Am I not thinking this out right?

    Off-centered scope

    When mounting a scope on my Savage 12 in 223, I was disappointed to find the scope mount is not centered to the bore. If you look at it it's subtle, but its definitely there. I'm thinking once the scope/rifle is zeroed, the off-centered scope shouldn't have much effect on downrange scope...

    Glass bedding a b&c?

    Could do it yourself for $40 box of Devcon & some courage. There's a great how-to thread in the gunsmith forum.
