    Rifle Scopes New Mark4 60015 doesn't have 65MOA elevation adj.

    Re: New Mark4 60015 doesn't have 65MOA elevation adj. Sounds like the cam is just positioned on the wrong side of the turret stop. Loosen the set screws and remove the cam/turret cap. Look for the stop ball, as Mike calls it (above). Position the stop ball on the other side of the turret...

    Rifle Scopes Redfield 12x?

    Re: Redfield 12x? Does your scope have the coin slot adjust side-focus parallax on the left of the turret housing? If so, it is a keeper if in good functional condition.

    Re: I want to invent a new cartridge!! What is needed is for someone to remove the belt from the standard .375 H&H magnum case and rebate the rim to fit in a .472 bolt. Cartridges of short, intermediate, and long length to be used in short and long action rifles already existing. Rather...

    Who owns a 300 wsm ar10T?

    Re: Who owns a 300 wsm ar10T? Armalite and DPMS both offered a .300saum upper or complete rifle for a couple of years; but no longer. I know the Armalite required a special magazine due to much wider body contour of the short action ultra mag case. Maybe you gain 100-150 fps over the...

    Re: Armalite ar10-T I just bought couple days ago Congrats on your purchase! Save yourself some money and weight and don't buy the Magpul stock. You might want to look at the Armalite technical library and download some files to read up on your rifle. The barrel on a T is not a lightweight...

    Rifle Scopes Opinion on IOR

    Re: Opinion on IOR How in hell did this turn into a piece about Liberty Optics or Scott Berish? Why would Berish want to cast aspersions on my comments now, when he acted Very Concerned about them 2 yrs ago? Why would Berish relate so many confidential experiences of how shitty IOR has...

    Rifle Scopes Opinion on IOR

    Re: Opinion on IOR A crimp or crease is not a ring mark. It is an indentation of the tube, and if it happens in the wrong location, your scope might just become non-functional. Yeah, finish wear is no big deal, but creases in the scope's maintube will impair your ability to mount the scope...

    Rifle Scopes Opinion on IOR

    Re: Opinion on IOR "The dot is that precise.... glass likened to a coke bottle from Schott Glassworkz in Germany is hard for me to swallow..." Aside from its weight which was pushing 3lbs with rings on that 2-12x IOR, the scope was really amazing. Mounted it up about 6-7pm the night it...

    Rifle Scopes Help me choose IOR 4x14 or Leupold 4x14

    Re: Help me choose IOR 4x14 or Leupold 4x14 I owned both scopes concurrently, until 18mos ago. Kept the Leupold. IOR is heavy. IOR is way too damn long, look at that occular lens and mag ring. Unless you use a prone forward-mount base the scope design will prove problematic for mounting...
