    Rifle Scopes US Optics Scope for Hunting??

    Re: US Optics Scope for Hunting?? I always carry Leica Geovid Binos for glassing and rangefinding, Swarovski STS HD 65mm spotting scope, and my rifle with usually a USO SN3 3.2-17 and sometimes a USO SN3 1.8-10. Each scope has its intended purpose, but for the majority of the hunting I do...

    Rifle Scopes US Optics Scope for Hunting??

    Re: US Optics Scope for Hunting?? I have had my 3.2-17 all across the continent and shot game from ranges of 20 yards to 800 yards. I have even taken it on a Dall Sheep hunt and didn't mind hauling it around. It is my go to scope. The great thing about USO is that you can customize it to...

    DTA SRS First Impression My .02

    Re: DTA SRS First Impression My .02 My DTA set up with the 22" .308 shot about like that as well with 168 A-Max. I want to try some different loads to tighten things up. The .338, on the other hand, shooting 300 SMK's put 3 shots in one ragged hole for me, and 3 shots in a slightly more...

    Re: 375 Cheytac Optic What about US Optics SN3 3.8-22? That's what I use on my 375 CT.

    Rifle Scopes US Optics Scope for Hunting??

    Re: US Optics Scope for Hunting?? I use both the SN33 1.8-10 and an SN3 3.2-17 on my hunting rifles. I spend a lot of money on hunting and want to make sure my equipment doesn't let me down. US Optics scopes have never let me down. I personally think the 3.2-17 is more versatile, but I...

    DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK

    Re: DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK +1 on the trigger. You will find nothing to complain about. Overall, I haven't found anything I dislike about this system. Ergonomics are actually better with the SRS than a conventional rifle in my opinion. I have found that cycling the bolt while...

    DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK

    Re: DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK I finally got a chance to shoot the DTA SRS. I started with the 338 Lapua conversion installed. I did some rechecking and you are right, Cira. I don't know what I did wrong the first time, but I definitely came up with the wrong length with my OAL gage...

    DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK

    Re: DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK The 338 Lapua Improved that I have has the Seekins DM on it and enables me to seat the 300 SMK at 3.895" COAL. This in turn enables me to easily put a 100.0 gr. charge of Retumbo in the case and achieve velocities around 3000 fps. Granted, this is the...

    DTA SRS 338 Lapua with 300 SMK

    I just started loading up some rounds for my new SRS and wanted to use 300 gr. SMK's, but I found that I had to seat them really deep (like 3.610" COAL) to not be jamming them pretty hard into the lands. It seems that the SRS in 338 Lapua is throated for the 250 Scenar. For those of you that...

    BAT Action

    Re: BAT Action I had Kirby Allen of Allen Precision Shooting build me a 338 Allen Express (338 Lapua Improved) on a BAT HRPIC receiver that comes with the integral recoil lug and 20 MOA rail. Having owned a few custom receivers (Nesika, Surgeon, Stiller, Lawton) I will say that this receiver...

    New Atlas Bipod

    I just received a package today containing my new Atlas Bipod. At first, I thought they seemed overpriced and figured my Harris would work just fine, but curiosity got the better of me, and I had to try one out. I'm glad I did! Comparing the Atlas to a Harris is like comparing a stock Rem 700...

    Reloading for the 375 Cheytac?

    Re: Reloading for the 375 Cheytac? Fotis, I don't have a lot of experience with mine yet since I've only owned it for a few months. I have been using Jamison cases, Fed 215 primers, 350 Grain SMK's. I started with 135.0 grains of Retumbo. This chronographed at 3120 fps. I have worked up...

    What kind of paint for painting stock?

    I've got a stock that could use a new paint job. It's a Manners T4. So what kind of paint are you guys using? Anyone want to share some photos of some creative paint jobs and materials used?

    Desert Tactical Arms Owner

    Re: Desert Tactical Arms Owner Nice shooting! I would be curious to see what the 300 SMK or Scenar would do out of the DTA. I can't wait to get mine ordered!

    Desert Tactical Arms Owner

    Re: Desert Tactical Arms Owner If they could do a Cheytac conversion, I could sell everything and just get a handful of conversion setups. That would be pretty cool! I'm getting really close to having the funds for one of these. Pretty exciting stuff!

    Rifle Scopes Thanks Scott!

    Re: Thanks Scott! I have yet to buy a scope from Scott, but have bought some Seekonk wrenches from him. Great to deal with. I'm saving up for a PH or Razor, and I will be buying it through Scott. Great prices and great customer service.
