    Rifle Scopes Can you identify this scope?

    It looks like a USO ST-10, fixed parallax, there are no turret covers when you get that particular knob option. It is a well built, rugged scope, really all that's needed. Originally it would've had US OPTICS printed on the side, but it looks like someone has messed with the finish on it...

    Anybody shot Litz's new product line ( ABM ammo)??

    Like keyrock, I've ordered some of the 230gr for 300WinMag. Will see how they work from one of these tight-bore 1-10 Oby's.

    Model 70 Pre64 Target rebuild underway

    That is looking good. I have my stock (still needs some work), a Pre-War Model 70 action, and an XXXXX barrel blank (1-10) on hand but need to decide on a builder for the metal work. What did you decide on for the trigger? Tune the M70 trigger or put something else in it? I miss the old...

    220 Swift feeding issue

    I would pay close attention to what Robert said above about the rear of the follower. Had the same problem with one, about 3 Swifts back (unfortunately it was not one of Roberts' builds, it was from another builder that did not prep the follower for that cartridge)

    stupid ? about high dollar custom 308 actions

    And....so? What is your point? Some have more than one car, or motorcycle, or a walk-in cigar humidor, or a wine cellar, or four mistresses that are less than 25 years old..............oh I get it...

    Rifle Scopes Counter sniper question/value

    OP, the best tool for removal of that scope is an oxy-acetylene torch, as you proceed with the removal, take extreme care not to damage the rifle or the rail. Do not worry about damaging the rings....they are goners anyway since they have actually been in contact with that scope. Flame purifies.

    .338-378 vs 338 lapua

    Nice Accumark. I worked with the .338-378 back during the '90s, when there was an ample supply of H870. The H870 made it easy to load, since it usually took a case full, (depending on the bullet weight). My rifle did not have a muzzle break (those are for sissies). Today, I might...

    Remington vssf

    Have owned 2, my son still has one of them (220 Swift). Both were the earlier model (pre-j-lock, pre-x-mark) the old-style triggers can be suitably tuned/adjusted by someone that knows what they are doing, the HS Precision stock (with aluminum bedding block) works pretty well, and most...

    Need a new verizon phone, as tough as I can get.

    I use an Iphone 5, cause I have to, and have Verizon 'cause of travel. This one is in an OtterCase Defender, etc., but iphones don't stand up well to moisture. Keep that sucker out of monsoons and bag it good when you wade/swim with it. The ottercase does fairly well but it's not...

    Why no love for HS Precision?

    Yeah that seemed to have pissed off a lot of folks. I did not particularly care for the 1st gen DBM/magazines on the older HTRs, but used the hell out of 'em anyway. Their current DBM and magazines are an improvement, but I'd rather use about any other DBM that uses AI magazines. The...

    Rifle Scopes Advise on a High end Glass upgrade.

    For me, the S&B 4-16 X 42 works well, and I think the S&B 4-16 X 50 is available in Australia. Only the mid-section is illuminated, the intensity can be adjusted easily by the external dial. But I don't know how much they cost down there. I also like my Hensoldt 4-16 X 56 scopes but they...

    Need help identifying my rifle...

    Really do not know. Once in awhile they are posted for sale here, but don't recall what asking prices were for those stocks--try using the search function here for PST026. Have you taken the action out of the stock and looked to see if the HSP markings are on the barrel, hidden by the stock...

    Need help identifying my rifle...

    That does not appear to be an HTR. (I still have an older LE HTR). On the HTR, the trigger was an old style Remington tuned by HSP. The bolt was also re-worked by HSP, (but the bolt shroud may have the J lock). Older HTRs had the 1st gen DBM (3 round and 10 round magazines). Later HTRs have...
