    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor Gen2 Reticle Upgrade?????

    So, I have an EBR2c reticle in my Razor Gen2. Yesterday I went to a store in a nearby town and looked through a Razor gen2 with an EBR7c. It reminded me of the ONLY feature I miss from my long ago sold IOR, the MP-8 reticle. The floating dot is ridiculously amazing to me, and since Vortex now...

    I'm getting ready to send my .308win Rem700 to a gunsmith to become a 260rem. via the Sniper's Hide GB that they are doing. Since I am having the action trued and lug pinned, it occurred to me that I didn't need to settle with just one caliber and could have multiple options using different...

    Has anyone been able to get these to shoot out of a Factory remmy barrel at mag length? My research is showing me that they don't like jumping to the lands. Can anyone confirm that?

    Eberlestock X3 lo Drag for Tactical Match or no?

    My first Long Range match is coming up in March and I am starting to gather my gear. Do most prefer an Eberlestock (ex. X3 lo Drag) pack to carry their rifle, or do most prefer a good pack without a scabbard, and carrying their rifle slung on their shoulder?

    MCS Mini Chassis and Accurate Mag question.

    I just received my T4A from Manners last week, and this week started hunting for 10rd mags for it.

    Gunsmithing Quick Savage rebarrel question

    I just acquired an old style M110 in .243 that is in desperate need of a re-barrel. How hard is it to acquire a new barrel and stock for an older model Savage? My understanding is that the newer style M110 parts are not compatible with the older style. Any thoughts?
