Had a Faxon Gunner that couldn't do under 3-4 MOA. Current Wilson Combat 20" Super Sniper won't do under 2 MOA with 5 different factory loads and it's heavy 50.7 oz JP Rifles? I heard Wilson Combat makes the blanks? Rainier Ultra Match? Proof Research? Do carbon barrels have erratic accuracy...

Bought this year and it got wet this morning and noticed it smelled of wood stain. In drying it off some wood stain came off onto the paper towels and stained my hands. When sitting out in the snow, I noticed the stock was quickly absorbing the melted snow. The stock now has nasty looking water...

I have a 20" Faxon Big Gunner barrel (35.84oz) in .308 that's so far is producing 3"- 4" groups with 3 different factory loads. My previous shorter, but heavier Wilson Combat gave me <1.5" groups with 4 different factory loads. Is there such a thing as an accurate, but not too heavy barrel? How...

Magnus made in Germany. Fortis in Portugal. Is the Fortis merely a Portugese built Magnus? Any difference optically between these two? Also, how would you guys rate the S&B Zenith compared to a Zeiss V6/V8 and Swarovski Z6? I'm still looking for a low light scope to top my 27 Nosler for deer...

Experiences with this stock? My Tikka T3X/Carbon-Six barrel needs a home. I'm tempted to order and wait a long time for a Manners or maybe a Mesa Altitude. The EKO in Large Pattern Midnight Grey visually appeals to me most at this point, but I have no idea if it's a decent stock.

Just watched a review from Optics-trade and they seem to really like this scope, especially in low light conditions. Anybody here have any hands on experience with this scope? I'm looking to replace my Swarovski Z3 with a better low light performer for hunting. Tried the Leica Magnus and Meopta...

The stock bolt and this custom bolt both show the same contact wear in my Tikka 308. I used a marker to determine if the receiver is good enough to build a 28 Nosler from. Would you build a semi-custom based on this imperfect receiver or are most Tikka receivers similar to this?

Optimal image quality. After reading many opinions would it be accurate to state the Magnus has slightly better image/eyebox/fov and the Polar may have slightly better low light performance? I know Dark Lord prefers the Magnus for an all around hunting scope, but I don't recall him saying the...

All are within the same price range now and appear to have the same optical design. Which do you buy and why? I can't decide since I don't have all 3 before me. Will be used mostly targets and some game identification/hunting. Which has the least amount of distortion at their lowest...

As far as resolution, clarity and contrast, which of these has the better image and eyebox? Unfortunately, I am a glass snob as I appreciate the beauty of a great image. Looking for a scope in the $1200-ish range. Would the much cheaper Arken EP-4 be competitive? Are their scopes in this price...

Like the "HMR" suggests, I'd like a double duty long range rifle. Weight is not too much of a concern. I need to keep the price under $1200. I really like the Bergara stock with it's internal aluminum bedding skirt and the Browning's stock too, but it looks like it doesn't have any internal...

Need a lightweight hunting scope for my arriving Tikka T3X Lite. Are there any scopes under $800 that optically outperform the Z3 series and are relatively lightweight?

I had my Rem 700 rebarreled with a Kreiger, action trued (by Krieger) and everything Cerakoted, Timney trigger and fitted with a McMillan Lazzeroni stock. Unfortunately, it hates factory ammo. At 100yrds, 5-ish" groups with Hornady 150gr, 165gr and 180gr Interbonds, SST's and Superformance...

Newb needs help. Will most low profile gas blocks fit under the handguard? Being on a tight budget (Maybe I'll sell my ACR to help fund) I'm torn between building a 308 or just settling with a Bushmaster ORC or something simliar priced that I'd upgrade in time anyways. If anybody has any...

I'm curious how the Zenith line compares optically to the Diavari and the Swaro Z6 line? Sharpness. Resolution. Brightness ect. I found a great deal on a S & B Zenith 1.5-6x42 which would replace my Elite 4200 on my 6.8 AR.

Is there much a velocity gain going from 16.5" to 20" with most .308 factory loads? I'm considering this model for some target shooting and mostly deer hunting. I have an AR 6.8 I use in the woods, but would like something with a little more reach in the fields (<500yrds) and yet still retain...

I'm going back and forth between getting a semi custom 308 bolt action and a pof upper. Soooo confused How reliable is the pof piston system? Accurate barrel ect? I currently have a 6.8 with an Adams Arms piston system and would like some diversity and a round that is a little more...

I'm afraid I might have to settle for a right handed action. Knowing you have to compromise and dish out a lot of money isn't a good feeling. If Remington made the 700 TARGET TACTICAL 308, 26" VTR w/ 5R rifling in left hand I'd be all over it. Is there anything out there in that price range...

Any thoughts on the 340 Weatherby Accumark w/ Accubrake? Is it a solid action? Decent barrel? Accurate? Tactical potential? I'm a lefty so my options are limited.

I'm considering this scope for some target and mostly hunting w/300WM. 2nd FP/RapidZ 800. Currently using an IOR 4-14X50 Tactical, but I'm not satisfied with it's lower end optical performance. Is this model Zeiss the best value for my needs as far as top tier optical quality is concerned...
