I have a new Leupold RX-2800 TBR Rangefinder . Bought it a few months back. Only just got chance to really practice with it. Seems to Range OK fast as lightning. Very sensitive. I can range a duck in an open field 200 yards away and only got to blink and it will range 10yards +/- Question is...

Im not interested in building an AR. I have built bolt action rigs before, for long distance shooting but now I want to try the AR platform for distances out to 500 yards. Im going to stick to .223 as the rounds are relatively cheap to reload and the accuracy with my old .222 rifle over 300...

thats a very simple but good idea. I have a laser bore sighter (the bullet shaped type). This item in the video would be equaly as usefull, thanks. When I recieve the Larue mount, I will mount it to my new 20Moa rail. I'm sure the results will be better. Thanks

Dont quite follow you hewlett. How can I zero the scope when it is Not on the rifle ? because whatever I zero it at...when I mount it to the rifle, the zero is going to be in a different possition anyway. Since my initial post, I took a closer look at the setup. I found that on the 0MOA mount...

Hi I Bought a used but very new NF NXS 12-42x56NP-R2 from Ebay and a 20MOA rail (from Thirdeye) Up until last week I had a SWFA 10X42M scope with LOADS of Adjustment. I knew the Nightforce had less, but I figured a 20Moa rail would fix that....Wrong ! . I used my standard 0MOA rail and...

Re: 7mm long distance rifle build.... please advise thanks all... Thats great news. I shall try some 175's / 168's and the A-max to 1000 yards when I get chance.

Re: 7mm long distance rifle build.... please advise Thankyou to both of you ! BobinNC , I'm very interested in your statement that the 7/08 will do 1200 yards. What sort of bullet weight would get me there ?. I'm using 160g SPBT and 162 A-max for 750 yards. I'm limited to only Vectan...

Hi After building a 7/08 which I must say I'm very pleased with for ranges from 300 to 800 yards. I want to build a 7mm cal rifle which is accurate at ranges up to 1400 yards. I want to use either 7WSM or 300RUM . Because I am going to use remington or savage actions (due to their ease of...

Re: Ballistic calculators for PDA Thanks TJ , but way too expensive for a peice of software. I will stick with one of the two choices I gave.

Been looking at 'Perry-Systems' Ballistic calculator software and also 'Gunworks' G7 Ballistic calculator software. The Gunworks one is on youtube, and seems very good. Has anyone tryed both ? Any preferences between these two ? http://www.perry-systems.com/ (70 dollars on SD card)...

Re: Remington LR900X Laser Rangefinder Well, to give you some idea of the Rangefinders that are available here...The best is considerd to be 'Hawke' at 400 euros = 564 dollars ! Anyhow, I have managed to pick up a Bushnell Legend 1200 ARC - used but in new condition for the equivelent...

Re: Remington LR900X Laser Rangefinder Ok... I have found a reasonably priced one. Bushnell legend 1200 arc. I understand that leupold rangefinders have the ability to show the real horizontal distance for rifles. The Bushnell model (above) only seems to show bullet drop in inches. This...

Re: Remington LR900X Laser Rangefinder LOL Ok...that one was a bit more helpfull.. I don't mind used or new, but cant really spend over 250 dollars inc shipping. I will take your advise though. I can't stand buying crap.

Re: Remington LR900X Laser Rangefinder mmmm like I said... im not interested in who's better. Just need a helpfull review on the remington

Hi all, There has been alot of discussion on rangefinders I know. I'm not interested in 'what is better' as I'm sure Leupold/leica/bushnell are the better quality end. I have a maximum budget with which I need a rangefinder that will calc reflective surfaces out to 800 meters. I shoot in the...

Re: Savage Custom Rifle in 7/08mm Gun laws in France grow tighter each year like everywhere else. Handguns,rifles,semi autos and shotguns are all permitted here with the correct licences. With the exception of fully auto, the skys the limit.

This is my first custom rifle build. It started out as a Savage Stevens 200 hunting rifle in 7/08mm . After asking advice on this website, I sourced the best parts I could find within my budget. As I live in France, their choices are very small when it comes to stocks. I had to reach out to the...

Re: Mil dot - distance calculations Great ! I am working with a SWFA SS10x42M scope, so I think I should be ok then. Thanks
