    Rifle Scopes USO erek zeroing question.

    I have a SN-3 I bought used with the EREK knob. I want to reset the knob to zero but I didn't get the nifty cover with the hole in it they show in the video detailing resetting the turrets. Can I do it without have the special cover? Any help would be appreciated!

    Re: Looking at a Steyr Mannlicher Model S 300 Win Mag My Dad has one my grandfather bought back after WWII in Germany chambered in .30-06. If they are anything now like they were then you won't be disappointed. Do you have a link to the one you're looking at?

    Hey y'all, looking to buy a utility rifle

    Re: Hey y'all, looking to buy a utility rifle A shorter barreled .308 would probably fit your needs well. Depending on your preference for brand and control positions you could go with a Remington 700 SPS Tactical (20" varmint contour barrel) or possibly a Savage. They make several shorter...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST or Zeiss Conquest ?

    Re: Vortex Viper PST or Zeiss Conquest ? I had a Zeiss Conquest 3-12x56 with the 30mm tube and with a 0 MOA base I was able to shoot out to 675 yards with a .308 using a 20 inch barrel. That is as far as I tried to dial up for so I don't know where it bottomed out. I ended up trading the...

    My new Scout Supply Co. shorty .308.

    Re: My new Scout Supply Co. shorty .308. I'm not sure exactly on the weight...I don't have any way to weigh it. It doesn't "feel" heavy at all. It is superbly balanced and handles perfectly. I know it's much easier to get into and out of a tree stand with than my 26" heavy-barreled .260! I...

    My new Scout Supply Co. shorty .308.

    Here is my newly completely .308 that Russell at Scout Supply Company built for me. This was originally a AAC-SD model. I wanted a bit shorter and thicker barrel so Russell trued up the action, put on an Obermeyer MTU contour 1-10 twist stainless cut to 18.5". The end is threaded 5/8-24 for my...

    savage model 12 LRP

    Re: savage model 12 LRP http://demigodllc.com/articles/6.5-shootout-260-6.5x47-6.5-creedmoor/ Check out this article, maybe it will help you decide. If you're going to reload its pretty much a toss up between the two. Those LRPs are great rifles! My dad has the 6.5 CM version.

    Is this a no go??

    Re: Is this a no go?? That is the right fitting stock you linked...I'm not sure about the palm swell though. Another option is to keep an eye on the options and accessories for sale page here. People sell take off HS precision stocks all the time. Sometimes with detachable mag systems.

    Rem 700 or Savage 12 LRP?

    Re: Rem 700 or Savage 12 LRP? If you can, get your hands on each gun and see which controls you prefer. I prefer Remington's controls (trigger, safety, bolt-release, etc.), my Dad really likes Savages. He loves the accutrigger system. To me, it seems a little awkward. So, try them both if...

    Rifle Scopes Did I get a bad scope?

    Re: Did I get a bad scope? Turning the elevation adjustment DOWN makes the reticle go up but bullet impact go down. To do this the reticle VISUALLY goes up. That makes sense if you think about it. If your shots are higher than you want them to be you Turn the adjustment knob DOWN, the reticle...
