    Well Merry Christmas to me, my Ruckus showed up and should be in my hands in a week. BIG kudos to Defiance for getting it done, I know they had some loooong build times. Stay safe troops.

    Scope leveling questions

    I think what matters is once the scope is in the rings and attached to the base, that you level the action and then the reticle? You can use the underside of the scope? however I prefer to level the reticle.

    Scope leveling questions

    I couldn't agree more, I have one and it's great, and takes alot of the "frustration" out of leveling a scope, for me it's because sometimes I can be too "fussy".

    Scope leveling questions

    Are the rings tight? I usually level the rifle , & torque the rings to the base & then level the scope.

    Want to build a new hunting rifle…Bolt rifle novice…be gentle!

    I'm kinda in the same position as you, I have a couple of standard calibers, .223, .308 & 300WM. I building a 6.5PRC on a Defiance Ruckus action, with an IBI barrel and KMW stock. The 6.5PRC will fit that "short action magnum" niche I'm looking for. I did consider a 300PRC, however my 300WM is...

    I hope that my Ruckus is getting built this month? (y)🤞🙏, we use the Ruckus for our sniper rifle builds and it's just a well built action. Great company

    I need a in/lb torque wrench

    I picked up a Wera torque driver on Ebay, it goes from 11 to 29 inch pounds so your pretty much covered for scopes and MRDS for pistols. Great quality IMO.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce ATACR™ 4-16x42 F1?? Opinions wanted

    OK, good info, so without the PVS, 1.125" should be fine, my boss is using those & the height seems fine. Thanks for the info, I like to try new things or products. I like Nightforce & I'm happy to spend my $ with them. Cheers

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce ATACR™ 4-16x42 F1?? Opinions wanted

    BTW, I'm just curious about your choice of rings? & height? I'm using one your stocks 🙂👍, & I usually opt for Badger M40A rings , however this being somewhat of a "compact" scope, I'm thinking maybe going with Nightforce 1"-mediun? or the 1.125" height?

    Nightforce ATACR 4X16X50 F1 for a new rifle build

    Thanks troops, I think based on my "hands on" and the comments above, the 4X16X42 is the winner, with the Mil-R reticle. I usually run Badger M40 rings, however my boss is using NIghtforce with his scope and I always have an open mind? What's the consensus these days on NIghtforce rings both the...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce ATACR™ 4-16x42 F1?? Opinions wanted

    Thanks Terry, are you using the C552 model? It looks like Nightforce has "discontinued" the 4X16X50 model and replaced it with the 4X20X50 model.

    Nightforce ATACR 4X16X50 F1 for a new rifle build

    Thanks for the replies, so I see my shooting being between the 400-700 yard mark. Comparing prices on the 16 & 20, the 20 is about $800 more, so I'll be staying with the 16. On the subject of objective size, I have always gravitated towards a "larger" tube for light etc, however I do have both...

    Nightforce ATACR 4X16X50 F1 for a new rifle build

    So I'm in the process of putting together a 6.5PRC with a 24" barrel for a intermediate range hunting and target rifle. I have a couple of Steiner M series scopes in the 3X18 and 5X25 magnification range. This time I'm going with a Nightforce scope, I've handled a few and decided based on that...
