    Tier 1 scope rings?

    I have never had an issue with any rings i have ever used regardless of price. Seekins, 2 lines of vortex, 2 lines of Burris, Leupold, Steiner, Talley, Weaver and cheap amazon rings... and probably a bunch of others that i can't remember. Never had a set of rings slide, loosen, or pinch the...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3!!!

    I have a pair of the 3-15 XTR2's and one (8mil/rev) is poor optically, and the other one is wonderful. I also have a 4-20 that is just spectacular (very similar to my DMR 2) and a 5-25 that is maybe better than the 8mil/rev 3-15, but far worse than the other 3-15 and 4-20. My brother has 4 of...

    Why the hatred for savage?

    I have 20 or so rifles and half are Savages. I have a 22-250 that will flip a spent round 180 degrees and it will land in the chamber backwards. It happens about 1 in 5 rounds. I think the neck doesn't clear the ejection port when the ejector lets go and flings the back end around. Other than...

    Best optic under $800

    I have a Burris XTR2 SCR 5-25 and a Ares BTR gen 2, 4.5-27. The glass is pretty close , but on everything else the Burris is just better. I will take the XTR2 every time over the Ares BTR. But they both work.

    Rifle Scopes Best Hunting Scope under $2k

    Yeah, i have plenty of target scopes and they don't make good hunting scopes at low light in a wooded area unless it is lighted, and i just never turn on the lighted reticle. It does make a difference that a well designed hunting reticle is used in a hunting situation. Sure you can always use...

    Rifle Scopes Best Hunting Scope under $2k

    I know it isn't going to have the glass clarity of others, but it would be worth your while to take a look at the Burris Veracity. I have a bushnell dmr2, burris XTR2'S, steiner p4xi and a zeiss v4 conquest and i just like my Burris Veracity more for my hunting rifle. The ffp e1 reticle uses...

    28 nosler

    I have a savage ultralite 28 nosler that has a 24" 1-8.44 twist barrel amd just can't find a lot of relevant information. I am planning to use 180 eld-m, but if that doesn't work well i have alternatives. I have lots of n570 powder and a little reloader 26, so i would rather use the n570. I...

    How useful are the Sig Kilo 3000s...

    I ranged elk at 1500 yards on a far hillside. I did have it use a rest to get still enough. It worked quite well.
