    Rifle Scopes help with zeiss conquest

    I picked up a used Zeiss Conquest 4.5x14x44 for a good price a while back . It looked brand new. Sent it to Zeiss to have an elevation target turret installed. Got it back and everything looked good to go. Turret had nice positive sharp clicks. Put it in the safe and kinda forgot about it for...

    compass lake varmint upper

    I'm wanting a new upper . Will be a bench gun used for prarie dogs and paper. I'm really liking what I read about compass lake. I like building my own builds, but I'm wondering if I can build one with a compass lake barrel as accurate as a varmint upper that Frank has done his magic on ?

    50 gr tsx

    This bullet seems to be gathering a following since Black Hills came out with their 5.56 version. I'm told the 50 gr tsx BH is loading isn't the same as the component bullet offered to reloaders. Is this true? If so does anyone know what the difference is ? What about the 50 gr ttsx compared...

    Rifle Scopes Zeiss target turret retrofit ?

    I just picked up a like new conquest 4.5-14x44 z plex with hunter knobs. I'm thinking about sending it to zeiss for target turrets. Will probably just get the elevation turret done. I've read some comment on the zeiss target turrets feeling a little mushy and not audible. This is not what I...

    I'm in need of a torque driver. I'm looking at the ATD 10x80 - crs , and the ATD 15x72 - 12FS. I like the looks of the 15x72,but it doesn't seem to be available with a bit set. Is this correct ?

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell elite warranty ?

    If I read it right it says that if your not satisfied you can return it within 365 days for a full refund. Is this correct ? Thinking about picking up a 4200 elite 3-12x44 FFP on clearance. Since I've never laid eyes on one of these the 1 year trial period could seal the deal.

    question about Geissele SSA

    The pull weight on my ssa is a little heavy for my liking. If it could be lightened up a little it would be the perfect trigger for me. Are the SSA and the SSAE identical triggers except for the springs? If so can I get the SSAE springs and put them in the SSA making it a SSAE trigger?

    wipe out bore cleaner in the ar

    I've used this stuff in bolt guns and it does pretty well. Is there any ill effects with it getting in the gas tube of an ar ? I would think a shot of compressed air through the rear of the gas tube would blow it out.

    Need help with M4 build

    I got a little bored with my bolt actions so I added an ar to my collecion. I must say it has become addictive. My first ar was a S&W mp15or. It is a fine rifle and probably does everything it's supposed to do. However the little demon in me that wants MOA out of every rifle has come out. So I'm...
