Howdy, I'm on Manners' Stock Builder site and it lists inlet options for both the T3 and T3x. I'm looking to order a MCS-PRS1 TK, but I have both a T3 and a T3x, and I need to know if the stock will work with both rifles. My understanding is that the footprint is the same, what am I missing...

Will this adaptor work with the Cal Gen 2? Thanks

Hide, please educate me on the best AI style mags for a 7 SAUM on a Tikka action. I have a CDI long action DBM ready to roll. Cheers, BP

G'day Hide, 105gr Hybrids are impossible to find anywhere in Australia, and with no signs of them turning up anytime soon I need to start looking at other options. I'm running 2 x 6BR's and a .243, all are 8 twist and all shoot extremely well with 105's. I stupidly sold a large chunk of my...

I've never handled one of these scopes but just bought one blind. At the price paid I can flip it and get my money back at the very least. Plan is to stick it on a lightweight hunting rifle. I don't tend to need super high performance at dawn/dusk but I'm interested in any feedback other users...

Hide, I'm trying to get reliable data re velocity numbers for a 20 inch 6BR (8 twist) running 80 & 105gr projectiles. Varget is my preferred powder since I'm sitting on a fair bit of it. Any info appreciated.

There's not a lot of info out there on this scope. Anyone run one? I've got a 7-35 with the Mil-XT and I'm eyeing the 4-16 with the same reticle for a more compact/lighter weight rifle for shorter-range matches and a bit of hunting. I know the NX8 models are all the rage but I'd prefer to stay...

So I have one arriving tomorrow with the Mil-XT reticle. Will be going on a comp/range toy. Help my confirmation bias by telling me the good (and the bad/ugly) of the NF.

I have a Anvil 30 ballhead and the Meopta Meostar 15x56 Bino's inbound. I'm looking for an adaptor I can use to QD mount the binos. Any help appreciated. BP

I'm looking to pick up one of these to cover the role of general purpose backup optic that will spend most of its time on a rimfire. Here in Australia they are the same price. I can't easily get hands on with them so looking for some feedback on the pros and cons of each for the role I've...

Anyone running a Bushnell 3-12 or 4.5-18 LRHS or LRTS on a .22lr? I'm putting together a trainer and since I've got these scopes I could repurpose one of them onto the rimfire. Obviously they parallax to about 50y, so not ideal but since most of my .22 shooting will be 50m+ I'm thinking they...

These X vs X threads are usually annoying but regardless I'm interested in an overview from someone who has both of these scopes. I have a backorder on a Steiner M7Xi 4-28x56 MSR2 II and have the option to switch to a Minox ZP5 5-25 MR4 reticle - price is essentially a wash (I'm based in...

Is there a consensus on which powder is better in the 6.5 Creed? I'm looking for a touch more velocity than H4350 produces - this is for a 20' Tikka hunting rifle pushing 147 or 140 ELD-M's. Any real world advise appreciated.

Anyone know what the XRS II uses. Tenebraex haven't listed the info on their site yet. Thanks, BP

Before I get into my thoughts re the XRS II I'd really appreciate it if someone could direct me to the correct Tenebraex cap sizes for this scope. I originally posted this in the XRS II thread but thought I'd put it up separately for those considering one. Having now spent more time with these...

Some context - I've got 6mm & 6.5 match rifles so I know they stomp the .308 for wind/recoil (+ energy at distance) etc. My .308 is specifically for hunting out to 500m and occasionally banging steel - I'm keen to keep this rifle compact and relatively lightweight. The rifle is a Tikka Varmint...

Looking at the '.223 /.308 aren't dead' thread had me playing around with numbers on my ballistic app. Now I'm wondering how fast a fast twist .308 20-22 inch barrel could push a 225gr Eldm? Assuming AI mag length constraints of approx 2.86 oal. Even very modest velocities (2300-2500fps)...

For the guys running 18-20 inch barrels - what are your loads? I'm considering chopping my barrel and running 130gr Hybrids - not sure how much velocity I'll give up to the 24inch barrel. I have 4350 and Varget on hand. Thanks, BP

Any through scope reticle pictures of the EBR-7B? Thanks

.243, BR, 6x47, 6 Creed, Dasher etc - Please tell me what you got that's 20inch or less. What velocity are you getting and with which projectile. I know the 6mm's seem to need more barrel than the 6.5's, but I'm interested in what people are achieving with shorter 6mm's. Ciao, BP
