    What’s the minimum height needed for 34mm scope/rings to clear a 56mm obj on the rig by the OP?

    Gunsmithing Free Floating the barrel

    Free floating a barrel is a cost cutting cool factor that doesn't hurt, but having the action/lug bedded first is key, along with a way to secure the screws consistently.

    Rifle Scopes Help choosing scope for Remington 700 5r.

    Post pics when you're done modding your rig. A 5R Hart (NY) was one of my favorite barrels, FWIW. Oh yeah - any of the scopes mentioned in this thread will get you out to 850-1000 feet ;-)

    Ultra Lightweight Hunting Rifle

    I'm sure they have their place, but an ultralight rifle, after several hours of trotting around daily, just doesn't cut it when one's heartbeat is raised significantly higher after a long uphill sprint; a heavier rifle's sight picture is just that much more forgiving & stable. In my experience...

    Rifle Scopes Tape inside scope rings?

    Aluminum shims compress with age. I suggest fresh cold shims installed in the field, will help you pop them yotes at longer distances.

    Rifle Scopes Will Spur mount Fit on defiance deviant hunter action?

    Likely the funniest thing I've heard all week. Call 'em & ask them to measure the mount. In metric AND standard. It will still be a fail; they have zero idea of how to use calipers or a measuring tape.

    Rifle Scopes Precision rifle poors scope struggles.

    Even considering the fact that you're a short boat ride away from Seattle, you pretty much nailed it. Your $ calculations would make you a good hunter, as it's all about getting GMO free meat for dirt cheap. And I'm not even being sarcastic (y)

    You don’t have to man-splain yourself. I feel the same way about good sled dogs.

    Rifle Scopes Monstrum Lens Covers

    That makes zero sense, unless you have a 24" scope. 3 seconds is precious time lost. Try to compensate elsewhere. I did say "similar". The link I posted above doesn't need tucking away. It stays on the rig when flipped away, and finding the correct size is no different than finding the right...

    Rifle Scopes Monstrum Lens Covers

    Don't get all defensive, I'm just trying to figure out the love. May I suggest a "scope coat" or similar - like these here - https://scopeguardalaska.com They'll keep dust off everything, not just the lenses. One swipe of the thumb (as opposed to two flip caps) & it flicks off faster than...

    Rifle Scopes Precision rifle poors scope struggles.

    I feel a zero stop is a non issue. You running 0moa rails? What minimal elevation are you talking about? My 3-12 Henny has a total range of 30mils and 14.7-14.9 up after zeroing at a 100yds. If I recall correctly they offered a locking turret to those who felt it was essential. Capped...
