Picked up a Seekins HIT rifle in 6GT. Looking for a FFP scope for it. Debating between Tract Toric ELR 4-25, Leupold Mk5 5-25, or Trijicon Tenmile 4.5-30. I'd like to stay around the $1,500 price range. Leaning towards the Leupold Mk5 but is there anything I'm missing out there?
Looking at getting a 6mm Creed or 6 GT for next rifle. I don't do competitions but I just pretend by myself. So just a long range bench or field shooting gun. Looking at 6mm for the low recoil and high bc bullets. Originally looking at the Seekins Havak Hit because of price, side folder, and...
Just got my Manners LRH long action stock in. I ordered it for long action Hawkins M5 hunter bottom metal. When I test fit it the sides of the bottom metal show just behind the Arca plate. I assume in a short action this doesn't show. When making the stock for a long action do they use the...
A friend has a Daniel Defense Delta 5 chassis gun in 308. It had a Nightforce NSX 3.5-15 on it but he was having problems tracking or holding zero, I can't remember. He wanted it replaced and asked me to help put on a Vortex Razor LHT. He had never done it and didn't have the tools. It has...
I have a Bighorn Origin short action and it has worked out good. For my next rifle I'm wanting a long action but haven't decided on caliber. I'm looking at 300PRC, 6mm-06, 300WSM, or 6.5PRC. This is why I'm looking at Bighorn again because of the easy changing of the bolt heads. Has anyone...
I'm looking at the 15-45x65mm models. The Vortex and Leupold models look very similar and seem to have the same specs. I know the Leupold is made in china, I'm assuming it's the same thing as the Viper with a different outer case. Is it? My purpose for use would be spotting shots to...
Thinking of getting a Rex Mg7 .358 for my Mpx. How is everyone attaching their Rex cans? I want to 3-lug but I only know of Yankee Hill having a 3lug adapter.
Any info on Leupold's tripods? They have a Mark 5 kit and a Pro Guide kit with carbon fiber twist lock legs. Ball head with 40 lbs load capacity and Arca attachments. Probably made overseas but looks similar to RRS. I can't swing RRS price, this looks like a good compromise.
Besides Big Horn (already have one) what other long actions allow you to use prefit barrels and swap bolts or boltheads? I'm thinking of building a bld hunter style gun in 300prc and also be able to swap it to 6-06 or other.
On LongRangeOnly forum there was a discussion about the 3-18 mk5 losing zero. He did a box test and apparently it didn't return to his original zero. He said it only happened once in his testing but also complained about the 35mm tube being to thin thought that could be the reason. I haven't...
I have a 4 bolt Viper barrel vise. I have to remove and install bolt action barrels like prefits for Bighorn and others. My question is how tight do I tighten the barrel vise to the barrel? I know you don't want the barrel to spin because it'll marr the finish but is it possible to crush or...
I have an Omega300 with Griffins Plan A taper mount adapter. The other day when trying to take it off the taper mount stayed and the tube began to spin. A wrench got it off but can I put threadlocker on the tube to make it stay?
I have an Omega300 and a Griffin Paladin 300. I'm looking for something to put on a Mpx 9mm and was considering the Omega9k. But the 36m seems like it does the same as the Omega9k and also offers more. So is there a reason to get the 9k other than cheaper cost?
I've been reloading for awhile, started with basic RCBS dies and as my level of accuracy increased I moved to Redding S-type bushing dies because I thought they were better. Never had a problem with either. Now I've started looking into getting a 22 Creedmoor and listening to what others have...
Had a baffle strike on my Griffin Explorr 224 can with my Bergara HMR 223. I've shot about 2-300 rounds with the same setup, but today was different. First I was sighting in a new optic on my AR15 with 11.5" Faxon barrel with Griffin Taper muzzle break, shooting some reloaded 55gr Vmaxes...
I'm building a 22 creedmoor for hunting and long range plinking. I'm thinking of going with a 20" barrel because it'll be suppressed. I would like to keep it 4lbs or less. I'm considering a 20" light palma or Rem Varmint. Any idea what either of those barrel would weigh at 20" fluted or not?
I have an Origin short action coming with a magnum bolt head and a spc bolt head. I'm planning on using it for a 224 valkyrie for for target shooting and general long range varmint fun. Then switching to 6.5prc or something else for hunting. For the 224 I don't need a real heavy contour, I...
Looking to build a 6.5 prc hunting rifle off a Origin action. Planning on a 24" barrel and I'm wondering about contour. I'm thinking of a light palma contour, anyone have an idea what weight that barrel would be? Also would a 24" medium palma be close to a Remington varmint/sendero?
Once I read a sub forum like Bolt Action and click "Mark this channel read" at the bottom of the page shouldn't the thread subjects no longer be in bold?
