    Deciding which 17 HMR rifle

    I'm looking to buy a new rifle in 17 HMR. I'm looking at the Tikka T1X and the CZ 457 (Varmint Pro Boyds stock,) or 457 synthetic suppressor ready. Boyds being about $50, I plan to on a rail and scope (4-16) most likely for paper and occasional squirrel/rabbit. If you own either or both, I'd...

    Rifle Scopes Looking at a scope for my Ruger 10/22, Bushnell RimFire, Athlon Neos, or Hawke

    I'm looking for a scope for my 10/22 and narrowed my choices down to three (Bushnell RimFire, Athlon Neos, and Hawke Vantage). I plan to shoot paper, metal plates, and harass a few squirrels and rabbits. As with most Hide answers, buy all three, test them, and sell off the two I least like...

    Jeffd is GTG

    I just wanted to give positive feedback to Jeffd. I bought a Huber trigger from him in the Exchange last week. It showed up today as advertised. I would buy from him again.

    Gunsmithing Barrel question

    I've slowly gathered parts for my .338 LM build. The only part I really need is the trigger. I have a Krieger on order and was wondering if I ought to snag up a Proof Research. The Krieger is paid and should be here at the end of the month. Has anyone here went with a Proof barrel then switch to...

    What barrel length for .338 LM?

    I've searched the threads here and there are various preferences. If you were building a gun for punching paper and steel primarily, would you go 26", 28" or another barrel length for the .338 Lapua?

    Decision on stock

    I have begun my quest to put together a custom .338 Lapua rifle. I plan to buy another Manners stock. I have a solid black Manners for my Tikka but was interested in the molded color, specifically the Elite Tac Black Forest Molded. Does anyone here have that particular color and how do you...

    I pulled the trigger (pun intended)

    After reading a bunch of posts, I pulled the trigger today and called Defiance and ordered a Deviant Tactical for a .338 LM. This will give me incentive to get my butt out the the range when the project is complete. The Hide is a great place!

    Savage 338

    Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone shoots the 338 Lapua with the Savage 112 and 110? How do you like them and if you had to do it over, would you buy something else and what? I would eventually like something in 338 and the Savage models look interesting. My other options would be...

    Rifle Scopes Minox or Steiner?

    I'm considering a 5-25X56 scope for my RPR. Anyone own both and what is your take on both scopes, good, bad, indifferent? I'd like to shoot some steel past 1000 yards eventually.

    Rifle Scopes Thanks CS Tactical

    I would like to say thanks to Mike and co. at CS Tactical for the great deal for the Vortex Strikefire. I took my daughter to the dentist which was a few blocks away from Mike's shop this afternoon. Knowing Mike likes to schedule appointments for walk in visits, I didn't plan on visiting him...

    Rifle Scopes Which scope for a Savage 17 HMR?

    I bought a Savage 17HMR and was looking for input on a scope. I noticed some companies have a dedicated scope for this caliber. Besides BSA (which isn't a consideration)are there any other choices?
