    Re: New ATI Combo 410 Shotgun and 22LR It is receiver length. The 2.5" .410 will fit in an AR receiver. CMMG had a 12 gauge AR-10 upper that looked promising, but the problem is in using a "straihgt up" magazine that can't account for the curvature of the stack caused by the rims. The...

    Rifle Scopes Tikka T3 CTR Scout .308: Help picking scope

    Re: Tikka T3 CTR Scout .308: Help picking scope The SS 3-9 has better glass than any other scope in the price range (according to guys who really know this stuff, not just me) and the package is a heck of a deal. I mean, even if you don't have a use for the 30mm mount (which seems to be...

    Rifle Scopes Tikka T3 CTR Scout .308: Help picking scope

    Re: Tikka T3 CTR Scout .308: Help picking scope SS 3-9x42. I was looking for an optic for a similar rifle and, after weighing it all out, I decided on the SS. Great glass, FFP and built like a tank. There are some on SampleList.com for $499, or they have the group buy with tons of "free"...

    You need this rifle in your collection!

    Re: You need this rifle in your collection! I've got a pink Saiga 12. Maybe it isn't tacticool like a Benelli or a 870 with aftermarket rails, but its got firepower for days. Oh, and girls think it is cute.

    Best deal for 1600

    Re: Best deal for 1600 After ref;ecting on my own post (about how I could not build one myself for cheaper) I decided to take the plunge as well. I went with the floorplate fluted version. This website has cost me $2900 in the last 12 hours.

    Raising Boys to Men is proving impossible

    Re: Raising Boys to Men is proving impossible I can't give any advice on parenting (I would guess I am closer in age to your son than to you) but I know that teh older I get, the wiser my parents seem. I have always been respectful (well, for teh most part) and have always loved them, but I...

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle

    Re: PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle I don't know from experience, but I have read many places that the HD glass is as good (or better) than the Leupy Mk4.

    Rifle Scopes Low cost rings (Burris)

    Re: Low cost rings (Burris) Look at what is being measured. The Burris rings are measured from the top of the rail to the bottom of the "hole" the scope sits in. Others measure from the top of the rail to the center of that same hole. 1"=about 25mm. A set of Seekins or TPS rings at .82"...

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle

    Re: PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle I am going with the 3-9 SS. If I decide to go with a higher mag scope on this rifle, I think the 3-9 will do just fine on one of my ARs. I have been reading a lot on the SS and the durability seems to be top notch.

    BEST RIFLE? BEST SCOPE? FINALLY ANSWERED!!!!

    Re: BEST RIFLE? BEST SCOPE? FINALLY ANSWERED!!!! I have no ill will (har har) toward William, but I really do like Harry. One of our contract security guys was British Army and, from his perrspective, Harry is the only Royal that really wants to serve. He's got a hell of a sense of humor, too.

    Best deal for 1600

    My 260 build...

    Re: My 260 build... I want to know how you did the webbing, too. I have a B&C that came plain black and I think I would like to add some color to it. Perhaps an instructional thread to follow this one up?

    Re: 32 too old for service?? We need more good people in our medical facilities. I know a bunch of medical and med service officers if you want me to put you in touch with them.

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle

    Re: PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle I would like to be able to hunt with it. I have used an illumiated reticle in thick woods before and thought it was worthwhile (though not entirely necessary) and I am certain I want a variable on this one. Otherwise, since it will be my GP...

    Gunsmithing Bead Blasting

    Re: Bead Blasting What blasting media do you recommend for blasting if you intend to leave it un-coated? I am thinking of doing a bead-blasted finish on the barrel for my next build.

    Best deal for 1600

    Re: Best deal for 1600 I am doing my own build on a CDNN-bought action. I could barely buy the action, barrel and stock for what the complete gun will cost you. Do it.

    Rifle Scopes How many LR shooters Don't use bubbles

    Re: How many LR shooters Don't use bubbles I've never used one before, but then I have only shot one match with optics. I hadn't really thought about it before, but I think it would be good for practice. To use an Army phrase, it will help you know "what right looks like," or in this case...

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x44 vs SS 3-9x42 for utility rifle

    I am going to be doing my first bolt action build--a 20-23 inch .308 on a FN SPr action--while I am home on mid-tour and want to get a low-ish powered variable to mount on it. The concept is for a "utility rifle," a general-purpose .308 that is handy and accurate enough for targets out to 500...

    Rifle Scopes New Leupold Mark IV M5 FFP Series

    Re: New Leupold Mk 4 M5 6.5-20 FFP Awesome video. I am really glad to see Leupold making an effort to address the demands of this crowd. One of these may well be my "stepping stone" until I build up the nerve to drop $2k+ on an equivalent USO.
