    Imported carbon fiber tripod (RT90C)

    If anyone is interested, I just posted my RT90c complete with Midwest offroad anvil 30 adapter plate in the PX. After several years of reliable service out of the RT90c I switched to a 2 section inverted tripod. The Midwest offroad adapter should also fit the leofoto MA30L anvil clone head.

    SOLD Sold: Innorel RT90C tripod with MidwestOffroad Anvil 30 adapter plate

    All sold 3/23 Changing up my tripod setup around and have some stuff for sale. First Up: RRS Anvil 30 (has Rev D engraved on the bottom, I believe this was the latest version RRS released before the RRS-lock Anvil 30 ARC-- this Anvil 30 does not have the RRS-lock pin.) A few light rub marks on...

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    Hodgdon direct, Natchez, and now powder valley have all listed it in recent days... Be ready for it to show up at another dealer soon and jump on it. I had 4 8# jugs in my cart at powder valley just a few minutes ago and was entering my credit card info but decided to pass on it. I snagged 20...

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    8 pounders of H4895 just hit powder valley... Is the world healing? While it might be available, you'll pay dearly for it... I swear someone is playing a joke on us and used an uno reverse card now that vihtavuori is the budget friendly option, lol Edit: And it's gone.

    AT-XC bolts are not compatible with AT/AW bolts

    At this point, if you're buying an AI you are going in with full knowledge that trying to obtain any replacement part is going to be easy at best, require a long wait and backorder most of the time, and possibly impossible to get at the worst. Lots of stories about the continuing difficulties...

    AIAT - barrel won’t come off

    Torqued was better for both cold bore POI and group size hitting the barrel with a rubber mallet near the muzzle between every shot, but not significantly. I tested this between 4 barrels and 2 AT actions. If you aren't frequently changing barrels my preference is to torque them to 50 ft-lb...

    Rifle Scopes Best optic aroumd 2k with mil discount

    EV = expert voice, one of the mil/le/vet discount sites. They aren't a gun related site, but they do have some optic manufacturers that participate and sell through them. Vortex is there, as is Burris, Zeiss, Nightforce, Athlon, etc. PX = the classifieds here on the hide

    AIAT - barrel won’t come off

    Use a barrel vise and your AW action wrench and give it a good "oomph." I wouldn't worry about hurting anything unless you exceed 150 ft-lb or so, or if it feels like threads are galled if/when the barrel pops free. Hopefully the thing didn't gall or drag a burr when the barrel was installed...

    Rifle Scopes Best optic aroumd 2k with mil discount

    Euro does offer a mil/le/vet price on the S3, but their mil/le/vet price on the S3 6-36 is higher than what you paid for your demo model. It's also higher than the current EV price on the S3 6-36, and the EV price is about $200 more than they go for lightly used in the PX. The really good deals...

    Rifle Scopes Best optic aroumd 2k with mil discount

    2 of my RG3s came from the Liberty Optics fiasco that Vortex made good on, but I still had to pay Vortex for them-- it's not like Vortex sent them to me for free, they just honored the price Scott charged for them. It's not like they gave away every scope that Scott stiffed people on for...

    Rifle Scopes Best optic aroumd 2k with mil discount

    Best deal on a Razor Gen 3 is a used one out of the classifieds for about $2150ish, or buy a 30% off MAP price certificate on Vortex from Euro Optic out of the PX for about $75 and then order a new RG3 for $2100 from Euro with that 30% off MAP certificate. The Vortex mil/le discounts aren't as...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Funny, I was just talking with another member here yesterday who also runs a 33XC barrel in his AXMC with a single shot sled, now thinking I need one as well. I already have a 300PRC barrel for my AXMC, and have been thinking about doing either 300 or 338 Norma but decided either of them wasn't...

    30 MOA Cant for Vortex Razor Gen 3 6-36 x 56

    While the Spuhr ring caps have cracked too and you can find pictures of that, the caps seem to fail at a much, much lower rate than the clamp bars. I can't recall a single post anywhere about a cracked Spuhr QD clamp bar-- so you should be good. I haven't modeled anything to check the numbers...

    30 MOA Cant for Vortex Razor Gen 3 6-36 x 56

    In the beginning those of us who posted about our Spuhr failures were often told we didn't know what the hell we were doing, we must have been overtorquing them, our torque drivers were messed up, we must have been putting grease on the screws, etc. Basically everyone who liked Spuhr wanted to...

    Precision Rifle Gear Question on RRS Anvil 30 R-lock tension adjustment

    Question for those that have used both the older non r-lock Anvil 30 and the new r-lock version... I have an older non r-lock version right now. The clamp tension on the rail isn't adjustable, but it can compensate for different rails somewhat as there is a wave spring under the nut. The wave...

    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    As I said, I'm not 100% sure either. All I know is both times I had to deal with S&B service I dealt with Jerry; my impression was he was the one doing the work based on his level of knowledge when I asked what was wrong and what was needed to fix it when he described what he had to do on the...

    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    I have no idea how many employees are at the S&B USA facility, nor how many are in the service department, but I can say the 2 times I had to use S&B service I dealt with Jerry both times so he may very well be "the guy" when it came to the US service center. He may have been the only one there...

    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    Apparently Jerry is gone now and service means going back to Deutschland... Sucks. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/schmidt-and-bender-repair.7120031/post-12025939
