    Rifle Scopes Newbie question - mil dots and holdover/windage

    Re: Newbie question - mil dots and holdover/windage Christmas tree reticules are nice, I run them on two of my competiton rifles. However, I ran a 3-12 50mm PMII with a standard P3 Mil-Dot for many years. If you want a Christmas tree in a Mil/Mil scope you're going to pay. Honestly...

    Anyone not like the AICS chassis? Why?

    Re: Anyone not like the AICS chassis? Why? I like it for durability, and for the most part it's comfortable. However, it's heavy and the length of the grip is a little short. I prefer my Manners stocks....

    Rifle Scopes Vortex customer service

    Re: Vortex customer service I sent my Razor 5-20 scope in for the eyepiece modification. Vortex sent back my scope in a matter of days and also through in a ball cap. I have never had such prompt customer service, and the folks at Vortex are really pleasant to talk to. Vortex is really a...

    Badger Ordance FTE Brake Questions

    Re: Badger Ordance FTE Brake Questions I had my smith do a thread protector and he recessed the rear of the protector and inserted a rubber gasket so that the protector would snug down on the gasket and not the barrel. When I thread my supressor on I flip the protector so the rubber snugs...

    Badger Ordance FTE Brake Questions

    Re: Badger Ordance FTE Brake Questions My .260Rem kicks less with the FTE than with my STW Titanium can, but it's a heavy beast and overkill for a .260 or .308. Look for a smaller lighter break like the Thruster.

    Bartlein barrel on Remington 700

    Re: Bartlein barrel on Remington 700 I have a Bartlein on my GAP built Rem700SA in .260Rem. It's a great barrel on a great build, and it’s very accurate. However, I'm not sure that any one of the top end barrels is better than the other, and I'm not so sure that GAP is any better than any...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST 6-24 x 50 FFP Mil/Mil

    Re: Vortex Viper PST 6-24 x 50 FFP Mil/Mil Give Vortex a chance to sort out your scope. They took really good care of me on my Razor eye peice swap, and even sent me a ball cap to sweeten the deal. No money out of my pocket. By the way, I had a similar problem with black crap on the inside...

    New guy looking in to options for my 700 pss

    Re: New guy looking in to options for my 700 pss I would look into a Rem700 PSS or other in .308win. You really can't go wrong. You can dress them up nice and if you want to change calibers the bolt face will accomodate just about any thing that is being shot at tactical matches right now...

    Rifle Scopes Falcon Menace 5-25x50 Tactical opinions please

    Re: Falcon Menace 5-25x50 Tactical opinions please I use a Falcon 5-25 50mm on my Savage Mark II trainer. Great for that rifle and set up, but not sure I would trust it on top of a hard hitting rifle like a .338 LapMag. The Vortex line of scopes seems to be a better route to go. They have...

    Rifle Scopes Help me decide between NF/IOR

    Re: Help me decide between NF/IOR I have been down the IOR road with a 2.5-10, two 3-18's, and a 3x CQB. I'm not going there any more. The IOR has great glass, quite a bit better than NF in my opinion. However, they are not worth the trade up in glass relative to all the other things that...

    Best Scope / Optic for .22 trainer

    Re: Best Scope / Optic for .22 trainer I'm using a Falcon 5-25 50mm FFP Mil/Mil with the ML16 reticule. I mounted it in a set of Burris XTR low rings on an EGW 20moa rail on my Savage Mark II. I really like the set up, some would say that 25x magnification is too much but I shoot my rifle...
