    SAKO S20 rail help

    Call Sako. I think you have to buy one of their mounts. https://www.sako.fi/s20-accessories

    SSG69 STEYR CHASIS

    McMillan used to make one. I would call them first, but you’ll probably have to search Gunbroker and various for sale boards.

    Rifle Scopes Sphur mount on delta 5

    I would call Mile High Shooting. You could also email Spuhr directly, but MHS will help you on the phone. That is how I picked the Spuhr mount for my Tikka CTR T3x.

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    So no rough movement when the bolt feeds the rounds? I had one of the first Manners PRS stocks with the AICS bottom and I had to send them my gun because it wouldn’t feed. Still was rough after they adjusted it. I am on the wait list for a Whiskey 3 in Sako Green, folding stock. I will give...

    Does this happen with Tikka CTR mags?

    Spring was still attached. The follower is just sliding out. Maybe follower issue or feed lip issue? I will call Beretta and see what they say. A mag exchange would be nice with such a low round count.

    P4Xi??

    4x gets the job done on a tactical type rifle < 200 yards in. Again, if you want 6x, that is fine, but the Steiner 1-4x is hard to beat. I will be buying another for an AK.

    P4Xi??

    For under $1000, the Steiner P4xi is hard to beat. It has a daylight bright reticle, a bullet drop compensating reticle, large and more than adequate eyebox on 1x. It is also water proof and has good illumination adjustments. I ran mine on a DD 16” mid length upper this summer at a Vickers...

    Does this happen with Tikka CTR mags?

    Agree. I need to take it apart and inspect it. It appears to be still attached to the spring though. I have diaper duty right now with the kids. I will try tonight if I get time.

    AI AT Bolt Stuck 6.5 CM

    Agree as I pointed out. The stresses are far different and requires finite element modeling to truly determine how well these cases handle the stress.

    Does this happen with Tikka CTR mags?

    I didn’t. It pulled out by itself when I was loading rounds. Specifically, when I pushed in the first round, the follower tilted up and out like you see above. I thought maybe it was me, but I think something is wrong with the feed lips or mag body. I can’t do the same with my other CTR mags.

    Does this happen with Tikka CTR mags?

    Happened yesterday at the range. This mag probably only has 100-120 rounds through it. i can easily push the follower in and out.

    AI AT Bolt Stuck 6.5 CM

    I don’t reload, but I always thought you were only supposed to load brass 2-4 times tops before ditching it. I had an Olin Corp employee tell me this when I was a teenager growing up in the St Louis area (at the Olin shotgun range). I guess I am wrong, but brass is fairly malleable and does...

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    Correct. I would just buy AICS brand mags. Magpuls would be nice but KRG says they don’t work with Tikkas.

    KRG Whiskey 3 Chassis-Let's See Them

    For you guys running Tikkas, any issues using AICS factory mags in the Whiskey-3 chassis?

    Best eyebox for a 4-16/3-18 scope?

    I went back out to the range today. I have a GRS Bifrost stock, and made some very subtle adjustments to the LOP and cheek piece. It helped a lot along with running the scope at 12-15x magnification. I shot prone which may have helped me too. More important , I used my glasses rather than...

    Best eyebox for a 4-16/3-18 scope?

    Carbonbased pretty much nailed my problems I am -8.5D with astigmatism wearing contacts (Acuvue Oasys). Glasses, which can be manufactured more precisely, for me are around -8.75D. I generally shoot with contacts so I can use std safety glasses. It takes my eyes more time to focus though...

    Best eyebox for a 4-16/3-18 scope?

    Thanks for the info. Will try to look through a Hensoldt and Tangent Theta. The Minox ZP is very similar to the Tangent Theta as well, so I will try to look at that.

    Rifle Scopes Finally Arrived-S&B Short Dot Dual CC

    Compared to say the Kahles K16i?

    Best eyebox for a 4-16/3-18 scope?

    I have a Kahles 3.5-18x50. I like it, but I find the eyebox very sensitive at 12-18 magnification. What other scopes would you recommend that possess a large eyebox in that magnification range? This is on a bolt gun, so I do not need an ultra short. I picked the Kahles initially because I love...

    Rifle Scopes Finally Arrived-S&B Short Dot Dual CC

    How is the eyebox on the short dot dual? I looked at an early model a year ago and was not impressed
