    Rifle Scopes NF 2.5-10x24 vs 1-X?

    I am looking for an optic to round out a 13.9” build. I’m going with a variable optic and am stuck. I like the concept of a 2.5-10x24 and will be putting an offset red dot on it so the 2.5x low end shouldn’t be too much of a down side. I had an NX8 and liked everything but the reticle/dot size...

    Bix’n Andy Dakota trigger?

    Anyone have any experience with these? Looking for something not super expensive to upgrade from a factory xmark. Figure I’d check before jumping on one of the Independence Day trigger tech deals

    Factory 280ai ammo help

    My reloading setup is still a work in progress, and am looking to pick up some factory 280ai ammo for the range and likely this hunting season (deer/elk) I’m leaning towards the federal ammo with the 168gr hybrid hunter in their “premium nickel plated” ammo. Anyone have any experience reloading...

    Rifle Scopes USO erek cover

    Does anyone know where I can find the 2 hole cover for USO Erek knobs. I picked one up second hand and it didn’t have it and USO said they don’t make them anymore. Is it critical to use it? (Scope is a st-10

    6.5cm build help: cerakote/melonite

    Okay, this is primarily aesthetic... I’m wrapping up a “do all” rifle. End goal is 8.75lb ish with a scope. As it sits it is 7.5lbs (obviously weight will be lost as the barrel is cut). Question being, the action is a melonited BAT VRD. If I get the barrel cerakoted can I get close to...

    Budget chassis: KRG or another?

    I’ve wanted to try out a chassis for a while and I’ve got a rem 700 5R barreled action sitting here, so figured instead of buying a stock and bottom metal I would try a chassis. Is the KRG bravo the best bang for the buck out there? Won’t be a comp gun or a hunting rifle, just a range shooter so...

    Rifle Scopes NF 2.5-10 vs 2.5-20

    Does anyone have both of these? Or experience with both? I was leaning towards the 2.5-10 for a 6.5 creedmoor hunting rifle, but with the 2.5-20 out is it worth the 7oz or so extra for that? I’m gathering the 2.5-10 is probably easier to get behind with a more forgiving eyebox, but just wanted...

    BAT VR scope rings

    Other than the rings available from Bat, does anyone have any experience with direct mount rings? I don’t really want to run a rail and their action has a full diameter bridge, unlike a traditional 700 action. Pictures are a plus if you’ve got them!

    Rifle Scopes Scope recommendation for 280ai

    Looking to get a scope for a 280ai hunting/target rifle I’ve got coming. Ranges for ~1000 or so on targets and steel. I’m wanting 25x minimum on the high end. I’ve been looking at the Leupold mark 5hd 5-25, NX8 4-32, and the ATACR 5-25 SFP with the MOAR-t reticle (FFP isn’t a necessity). The...
