    On a budget so what will the best bang for the buck between these two scopes. I will be mounting one of them on a Savage 10FP with a max range of 200 yards (that's the max of the range I belong to) but I do get to use other ranges that reach out to 500 yards. Thanks for you posts.

    Standard or heavy barrel 223? Make a Difference?

    I was wondering is there an accuracy difference (223) with a heavy barrel vs a standard barrel? Friend of mine has a Howa Ranch rifle in 223 and it's very accurate on ground hogs. Just like to know if it's worth the extra bucks for the HB vs the standard barrel? Thanks, Dan

    H&R Survivor 308

    I know these do not fall under the same realm as your bolt action rifles, but for a single shot 308 with a bull barrel would these make an accurate rifle? Does anyone have any trigger time with one or know anyone that has one? Would they make a good low budget tac driver? Thanks, Dan

    Need advice from the experts on Savage

    I have been looking at the 10FP (308) and the 10FP Precision Carbine. My main question is will there be any advantage of the 24" barrel vs the 20" barrel in accuracy over distance? Thanks for your help.
