    Struggling to understand the mistery with this rifle

    I would get away from the notion that your gun can always shoot "one hole groups". Just because your gun has "done it before" doesn't mean it is the norm. I believe this is where most of your "misery" is coming from. Unrealistic expectations for this type of rifle. In reality (and this is...

    Rifle Scopes Top tier scope recommendation

    This video by Area 419 does an excellent job at comparing some of the top scopes currently on the market: The video allows you to see the large advantage in FOV the 540i has over it's competitors

    Still contemplating a savage 10fp in 308.

    Buy it! Try to talk the price down, since its an older model and not as popular now? With your background story and nostalgia, you should definitely get it. Especially if you got the money to spend. Can even slap one of the newer revised SWFAs on it too

    Proper assembly for pre-fit on ARC CDG action?

    To be fair it is HIS money and time; he's free to spend it how he wants... But OP, there is a very good reason everyone is trying to get you to go to a heavy steel barrel

    Proper assembly for pre-fit on ARC CDG action?

    Reiterating: Carbon-Fiber barrel on a magnum target rifle/range toy makes little sense. You WANT heavy weight, it is your friend in this use case. Unless you want to spend more money for a less enjoyable/effective experience.

    Cheap coyote gun help

    What did you end up getting OP?? I'll reiterate what others have said about Howa and Tikka. If you have the time/skills, getting a Howa barreled action and bedding it in a laminate stock from Boyds or Richards Micro Fit stocks is my favorite "lowest cost" option. For the mini actions you may...

    Vortex Fury Replacement Teaser

    I personally would still rather use phone/kestrel for ballistics. Maybe a new Fury will be released eventually. But being able to laser range, spot a shot, and then give a measured correction (via reticle) all from one optic would be nice (without spending over $2k)

    No MOA or MIL reticle :(

    Solus or Origin for first custom build?

    Agreed. Just clarifying in case he took it as the Solus can't change bolt face.

    Solus or Origin for first custom build?

    As is the Solus (if you can find the bolt face you're looking for). However not sure if they have all the options as the Origin does currently (PPC face etc..) Either action would likely serve you well. Most will recommend the Origin as there's concerns with Aero's financial status and support.

    Curiosity Test.. Brake VS No Brake and Expander VS No Expander

    I wouldn't take any conclusions from this. Run the exact same test again, change up the order in which you fired them from the first time. Even doing this just one more time, you'll likely see that the results will be different. Ideally you would also be blind to which sample you are shooting...

    Kelbly or Terminus

    +1 for Kelblys. Unfortunately I haven't played with a Terminus, but I'd doubt either option would be bad. On the higher end, I have owned an Impact, Aero Solus, AI ATX, and the Kelblys is my personal favorite.

    LRF Binos w/Reticle

    Is there additional difficulty in manufacturing binos with an etched reticle? Seems like something that would be more common. I am trying to avoid having a spotting optic and a range finder as two separate devices. Seems like Vectronix Vector X is the only option. About double my preferred...

    LRF Binos w/Reticle

    What are the options available today for a pair of laser rangefinder binoculars with a MIL reticle? Ballistic software not needed for my application. Is there an option in the $1000 - $1500 range? I did a quick search of the major players and couldn't find anything. Edit: is this still a gap in...
