    Re: Scope choice for 700 milspec 5r 300win I have the SS 5-20 on my 5r and I love that scope. I can't compare it to a vortex though since I've never had one.

    I'ts been awhile, but it's finally here.

    Re: I'ts been awhile, but it's finally here. Congratulations, it's a great gun. I love mine. It's as much of a shooter as everyone says. I put the Super Sniper 5-20 on mine about a week ago and took it out to 1000 yards the first time out with the scope. I put 4 shots within about 4 to 6...

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! Sighted in my 5-20 today on my 5r remmy. Did a quick tracking test and checked with reticle. Adjustments and reticle are spot on, returns to zero every time. Vertical tracking is perfect, and thanks to LL for the feeler gauge tip. It works...

    Member Link Up North Carolina

    Re: North Carolina NC seems to really suck for outdoor shooting. Indoor ranges suck but it's almost all there is around here. Locally to me there is the RCWA near Salisbury but they want a 600 dollar initiation fee, two cosigners, a background check and monthly meetings to be a member. It has...

    Review: Wife's Rem 700 5R (.308 Win)

    Re: Review: Wife's Rem 700 5R (.308 Win) Great post. I love my 5r. I love it even more with the Timney 510 I installed and set at 2.25 lbs. I ordered one of the SS 5-20's from the Facebook promotion and can't wait to try that out. I'm planning on sending mine to Gradous to have it cut down...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more!

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! Looks like it'll hit 10k in time for a Tuesday order. Might have missed this in the 10 pages of posts but will the 5-20's that are in stock ship immediately or will they hold the shipments until the pair can ship? Also when does the card...

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! I can't believe some of the belly aching about "Having to join" Facebook for this promotion. Who cares about Facebook? You create an account and click "like", big deal. You don't have to give them your social and checking account routing...

    rem700 5r way overpriced?

    Re: rem700 5r way overpriced? Actually I think it's the 10th anniversary of them building that particular rifle for accusport. I paid about 1050 for mine at a local gun shop. I kind of wish I'd have gotten the 20" barreled version but my rifle shoots great. I got .750 groups with FGMM 168...

    ruger 10/22 - losing accuracy {was a tack driver}

    Re: ruger 10/22 - losing accuracy {was a tack driver} Did the OP ever get this issue figured out? I'm experiencing the same thing. I have a 10/22 tactical target with the factory bull barrel. It was shooting one hole groups at 25 yards with several types of ammo. It's had maybe 400 to 450...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more!

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! Growing pretty fast. I posted on every firearm forum I'm a member of. I've gotten only 11 of my actual FB family and friends to like it. They are slacking. Should hit 4000 by next weekend or sooner at this rate. Keep it coming.

    Decent Budget Spotting Scope?

    Re: Decent Budget Spotting Scope? I picked up a Redfield Rampage tonight at the local Bass Pro Shop. It was about $240 and seems like a pretty nice piece for the price compared to some of the Redhead's and Bushnell's in the same price range. One thing that stood out was that the eye relief...

    Setup for Ballistic FTE

    Re: Setup for Ballistic FTE 10-4, and thanks for the response. I'm working on trying to get across a Chrono before the trip. I will use the complete data set for my calculator. If I can get across a chrono then all the better. If not I planned on shooting at 100 yard increments out to 4 or...

    Setup for Ballistic FTE

    I've been doing some searching and reading on this topic and it's getting a little confusing. I'm new to this kind of equipment so can someone please tell me the basic setup for getting started with ballistic FTE on iPhone and what is the best way to input climate data from a kestrel 4500? I've...

    Rifle Scopes Please ignore this thread..> I'm an idiot.

    Re: Please ignore this thread..> I'm an idiot. My problems appear to be none. I shot at 25 yards tonight and split the line in the target about an inch low with three rounds. Put a couple turns up on the turret and split the line, then turned back to zero and put one more through the same...

    First time with new 5r.

    Thought the other thread was getting too strung out and picture heavy. Took my new 5r .308 to a buddies house to get it sighted in and was pretty happy with the initial performance. First 5 shots after sighting. Shot one round of the Dot Drill for fun before time ran out.

    Rifle Scopes Please ignore this thread..> I'm an idiot.

    Re: Could this be a problem? (or am I paranoid) I adjusted my parallax for 100 yards. I'm going to my local indoor range just to shoot it at 25yards and see if it holds center. Most likely I've worried over nothing but I just want to be sure before I pack it up and go shooting out of state.
