    First time AI advice

    Re: First time AI advice OP - as others have said give Sporting Services a call. Graeme is a very helpful guy and can talk you through the options. I have a 26" target barrel on my AW - yes, with 175gr and 155gr it will get out to 1000yds. But I'd not describe it as a stalking rifle - it...

    RMR as primary AR sight???

    Re: RMR as primary AR sight??? Understood. I'd not have too many problems with the idea of using an RMR as a red-dot alongside irons (even if they are the secondary sights i.e flip-up/BUIS/Dueck style)....I find the RMR very similar to the C-More I used to use some years ago on a .22 upper...

    The APA PARAGON destruction video series

    Re: The APA PARAGON destruction video series Great set of vids. +1 on the salt water, breaching tool and drop tests. Sand would be good...and for those of us in more temperate climates...maybe a mud bath? And for those of us in the cold places...a snow/ice test. How about a truck test...

    Finnish M39-SOV Project BUILD FINISHED

    Re: Finnish M39-SOV Project begins.... No, nothing too scientific yet on tigthening it down. But makes perfect sense to have known values/baseline for the action and fore-end. Does anybody know if there any known/published values for "correct" torque on the Finnish or Russian rifles?

    When will the M40A1 be "Vintage?"

    Re: When will the M40A1 be "Vintage?" Depends what you are talking about...clothes, wine, cars, watches.... But most say the term "vintage" can be applied to anything over 20-25years old. So, if you accept that criteria applies to rifles too, your M40A1 will be well into "vintage" territory...

    Finnish M39-SOV Project BUILD FINISHED

    Re: Finnish M39-SOV Project begins.... Boris - yes, it was an interesting day - maybe a little lacking in scientific method and measuring, but worthwhile. What struck me the most was the POI shift to the left at 1/4 turn unscrewed and how it shifted back again.

    Unertl experts, need help busting eBay douchebag

    Re: Unertl experts, need help busting eBay douchebag As one of my fellow countrymen once famously said......"NEVER surrender!" Glad you got it sorted. Just make sure you return the scope with a signature required on delivery.

    Rifle Scopes Dam you Fedex!!!!

    Re: Dam you Fedex!!!! Translated that probably means the driver either (a) had a duvet day, (b) went home early with boxes still on the truck, or (c) got delayed making his regular "special delivery" to the hottie three streets away and just keyed in "customer not at home" to cover himself...

    Another M1903A1 / USMC Sniper "look alike" begins

    Re: Another M1903A1 / USMC Sniper "look alike" begins ...on the upside, it should fit the rifle and get you shooting. As DV spotted in Docles's thread...the repros are also based on the 1" objective and fit fine. And the benefit of your scope is that it is a REAL Unertl. Perhaps the only...

    Re: Unertl experts, need help busting eBay douchebag rth1800...understood. But I agree with former0302 - walking away just encourages the perpetrators to keep doing it. I've had two major problems with Ebay...both resolved (but hard work from my side was the only way to get it done) - so...

    Another M1903A1 / USMC Sniper "look alike" begins

    Re: Another M1903A1 / USMC Sniper "look alike" begins Looks like a more than decent start. Some light and local steaming will probably reduce some of the dents in the furniture...a light sanding and some new stock finish - it'll look gorgeous! As it is...it's got that great patina to it...

    Otis cleaning kit for .338 lapua?

    Re: Otis cleaning kit for .338 lapua? Got two...use them on everything from .22 to 7.62 and 8x57. As others have said...best for range/field use. No substitute for pukka cleaning kit (bore guide/rod etc.)
