    Leofoto tripods

    The weight that I measured was tripod and base adaptor only. There weren’t any retaining screws on my TA-3-LC head. The head snaps into the retention button on the tripod and the friction lock secures it. The TA-3 head fits the Leofoto 364c as good as it does a RRS tripod.

    For what it’s worth, the TA-3-LC works perfectly with the LN-364 tripod.

    Gunsmithing Flush cup removal

    A hot allen wrench worked like a charm. I didn’t have to put flame near the stock. Lock the wrench in vicegrips, heat the end of the wrench cherry red and insert it into cup with a bit of twisting force. It took about 45 seconds after inserting wrench before it started unscrewing, came out...

    Gunsmithing Flush cup removal

    Anyone have any tips on removing flushcup bases from a fiberglass stock? I would like to replace mine with limited rotation cups if I can get the current ones out without damage.

    Sling Selection for KRG Chassis

    The TAB Gear PRS sling, HK style hooks, and a pair of the SLG-LUP sling loops from KRG is hard to beat.

    XLR Element owners - anyone interested in a "mid-length" swiss-arca rail? question inside.

    A piece of 120-150mm universal arca plate will span the first two threaded holes forward of the magwell and stll leave plenty of room for a bipod.

    Leofoto tripods

    I went ahead and bought one to try out. It was delivered today and I have to say my initial impression is positive. The tripod is solid and stable, all adjustment points are smooth and feel well made. The advertised weight was 5.7 lbs. this one trips the scale at an even 6 lbs. One pleasant...

    Leofoto tripods

    Does anyone here have any hands on experience with the Leofoto tripod legs? I am curious about the LN-404C or the LN-364C. At half the cost of a RRS or Gitzo, are they half as good? I think I saw one in a photo taken at the PRS finale this weekend but I can’t be sure. I have read positive...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles scope service location and turnaround time?

    I had to send mine back for a canted reticle. I was quoted 8 weeks and that is exactly what it took. No surprises.

    ARC mag extensions?

    The Seekins/ Core +2 mag extensions will work on the ARC mags. They are tight for the last 1/4" but a few taps with a soft face hammer will coax them home.

    Range Report 6x47 and 110 SMK?

    Has anyone tried the 110 SMK in a 6x47 with favorable results? I know it's asking a lot of a small cartrige, but I'm curious. I am planning ahead for a 6x47 and wondering if it is possible or do I need to plan on sticking with 105 Hybrids.

    Magpul Poly Rail- Good enough for a bipod?

    I have used the Magpul rail on my KRG spigot for two years and it has held up fine.

    Looking for custom rifle heavily padded soft cases manufacturer

    Armageddon Gear, Bald Eagle. They both make cases large enough for long tactical style rifles with large scopes.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell reticle thickness G3 illuminated vs non illuminated

    The non-illuminated reticle is thinner in the center. I am not sure by how much, but I think the thinner section extends out .5 mil from center in each direction. The rest of it is the same.

    Throw Lever Review/Comparo - Vortex branded metal vs. MK Machining printed vs. cheapie Cat Tail

    I have the printed MK Machining throw levers on all my scopes and have no regrets. I agree, they are ugly, but they work and fit great at a small price.
