    Leica Amplus 6 - locking turret?

    I finally got to handle one of these hunting scopes.. I was extremely impressed with the build quality and glass . I would say it’s a tick better optically than the VX-5HD scopes I’ve been using . One thing that would be a deal breaker for me….. it has a very robust exposed elevation turret...

    Any 'smiths known for Tikka Builds?

    I have been wanting to try a Tikka for a long time, and I am about to pull the trigger on a T3 Scout .308. I want to use this as a base for a budget precision rifle for use out to 750 yards. I plan on getting a new stock for it, and then slowly modifying it over time as I learn more about it as...
