    Gunsmithing 300 Norma Magnum gunsmiths

    Re: 300 Norma Magnum gunsmiths No. Just wondering who has a reamer for one and could build one for me. I know you have built a lot of 338 Norma mags. Do you have a reamer for a 300 Norma mag?

    Rangefinder 1000 yard 20" targets

    Re: Rangefinder 1000 yard 20" targets The Zeiss rangefinding binoculars will do 1700 yards on deer sized game in decent conditions hand held. They are the best rangefinder I have used and I have used the Swaros, the Geovids, and Bushnell. They are expensive, but glass is superb and very...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone using a Zeiss Victory FL Diavari 4-16x50T??

    Re: Anyone using a Zeiss Victory FL Diavari 4-16x5 Anyone else have one of these who could let us know how you like it? I'm really interested in this for a hunting scope with the Hunt ASV locking turrets and the Rapid Z 800 Reticle. From what I have read, it seems like this combo would...

    Rifle Scopes Viper PST update from Vortex

    Re: Viper PST update from Vortex I have a Viper PST from the first batch that was released. I am very pleased with it. I think Vortex did a really good job with this scope. I did find the turrets a little loose for my taste, but it sounds like Vortex is fixing that. I still give props to...

    Rifle Scopes Geovid vs Victory RF

    Re: Geovid vs Victory RF I have owned both. I sold me Geovids. They are a great binocular, but the Zeiss are brighter, better glass, and range a lot further. I was lucky to get 1200 yards out of my Geovids. You will get 1600+ pretty easily with the Zeiss. Both are great units, but the...

    Re: Anyone using a Zeiss Victory FL Diavari 4-16x5 I too am interested in these. Any reviews would be appreciated. I am especially interested to hear how the hunting ASV locking turrets work.

    Rifle Scopes I got my Vortex Viper PST 4-16

    Re: I got my Vortex Viper PST 4-16 The knobs could be a little tighter. They feel very crisp, they just turn a little easier than I would like. I counted 77 MOA on mine. They have the adjustments that are advertised. The reticle is great. I have zero complaints about the reticle...

    Rifle Scopes I got my Vortex Viper PST 4-16

    For everyone freaking out over the less than stellar reviews on these, I have not found any of those issues. I hope to have a more in-depth report, but glass seems to be quite good on mine. It's not up to par with a PH, USO, or SB, but pretty damn good for the money. It seems as clear to me...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Delivery Reality

    Re: Vortex Viper PST Delivery Reality Disappointing? Not for me. Doug informed me one of these is coming my way. I would think that everyone would be ecstatic that they are starting to show up. They are even on time!

    300 grain Berger velocity results!

    Re: 300 grain Berger velocity results! I also just noticed that Tyler is using a 32" barrel. I have a 26" barrel on mine. Should be able to get up to 3066 fps no problem with that long barrel. I would expect a little more velocity with 104.0 grains of Retumbo. Could be a slower lot of...

    300 grain Berger velocity results!

    Re: 300 grain Berger velocity results! I have a 338 Allen Express (338 Lapua Improved) with a Seekins DM installed, so I can seat them long (3.895"). My go to load is 100.0 grains of Retumbo which is nowhere near a top load. I get 2950 fps with this load using 300 SMK. From what I have...

    Re: My Dad passed away.............. Sorry to hear about your loss, Senderoman. It sounds like you were very close to your father and developed some great memories. Cherish your memories and feel fortunate that you had such a great man as a father. At times like this, that's about the only...

    AICS 338 Lapua mag COAL

    Could anyone tell me what is the maximum COAL that can be used in an AICS 338 Lapua mag? I remember it being right around 3.600". Does that sound right? I also heard rumors that they were coming out with a mag that would be around 3.800". Can anyone confirm that? Thanks!

    Anyone try, or have info on WC867 WC872

    Re: Anyone try, or have info on WC867 WC872 I have experience with WC872. I would think it would be way too slow for any of those calibers. I run it in a 7mm Allen Magnum which is a 7-338 Lapua improved. It's about right for that round running 200 grain bullets.

    Rifle Scopes Spotting Scope - which one? High end!

    Re: Spotting Scope - which one? High end! I upgraded from a Swarovski STS 80 HD to the Kowa Prominar TSN-883. I have looked through the best Swarovksi, Leica, and Zeiss have to offer. My choice was the Kowa Prominar. The 88mm objective makes them extraordinarily bright, and the clarity is...

    New AXIS Tactical Rifle

    Re: New AXIS Tactical Rifle Looks like a really nice receiver with some innovative features. Any plans on making a long action with a bolt face large enough for the 338 Lapua?
