@bman940 Any plans for a Christmas tree reticle? This sound like a great scope for the price and would be exactly what I’m looking for, except I’m was planning for my next scope to have a Christmas tree reticle.

You can doubt GAP shooters care, but yet GAP (insert XYZ custom or semi-custom rifle) shooters would come out of the woodwork to shit on Savages. I too wondered why. No, they shouldn't give two shits. They aren't in the same class. And yet...here you guys are. I said 'would' come out of the...

Actually, they've been called pieces of shit over and over in this thread. I have a Savage that I bought about ten years due to the ability to throw a new barrel on there. Never had any issues but never ran it hard. Having said that, with the increased popularity and offering of 'precision'...

I think that’s for the camera adaptor.

I dipped my toe into precision rifles with a Savage since I liked the ability to change calibers/barrels in my workshop. Put a McGowan barrel on and rented some go/no go gauges and I had a shooter in 6.5cm (before Savage was even offering that caliber, I think.) Pretty neat. But we know Savage...

Currently have a Savage in 6.5CM bedded in a cheap laminate stock, McGowan barrell and Vortex Viper PST Gen 1. Havent shot it in a few years as I’ve been focusing on other shooting sports I was mostly being facetious when asking what else I needed. I know I could go to a club match and...

That's a thing? I don't shoot matches (yet), but as a casual precision rifle enthusiast, it's things like this that make me believe (rightly or wrongly) that precision rifle matches are too equipment oriented. Besides a rifle that shoots straight, I also need a Christmas tree reticle, Hog...

Anyone have 6.5 Creedmoor loads for AA4350 (can't find H4350 powder) and 140 and 124 gr Amax's? (I've worked up to 42.2 with the 140s with no signs of pressure, but didn't find any clear nodes. Could be my abilities and not the gun, though.) Thanks.

Hi, This is my first time reloading for precision. I'm reloading once fired (in my rifle) 6.5 Creedmoor brass in a Lee single stage press, RCBS shell holder and Hornady Custom Grade dies (full length). I set the die up according to Hornady's instructions, which is to raise ram to highest...

Hi, In a few days I'll have my first range session with a newly built Savage in 6.5 Creedmoor. Brand new barrel, new bedding job, new scope (Vortex Viper HST), new bipod, etc. I'll be shooting factory 120gr. I'll take the brass and reload it, but for now I'm not working on load...

I've read the article on stress free pillar bedding on 6mmbr. Stress-Free Pillar Bedding I have a Savage 110 that I'm going to bed in a Boyd Tacticool stock. I bought some pre-fab pillars that are rounded to match the radius of the action. But, I don't know that it's the perfect fit. I got...

I've got a Savage 110 and am mounting an EGW 20 MOA base. I placed it on the receiver, and pressed on the front. Tapped on the base. It's not raised and appears to be making solid contact. I snugged the front two screws down, and tapped and otherwise prodded the rear. No discernible gap at...

You guys are probably right about my price figure, and I've got some room to go a little higher. But keep in mind that the retail price will be higher than what I would pay. (Again, I'm honoring the companies' wishes and avoiding talking about the specifics of the various discounts.) Vortex...

Hi, This is a slight twist on the typical "What riflescope should I buy" question. I'm fortunate that some optic companies offer discounts to law enforcement officers making private purchases. I know Vortex, Leopold, and I think Burris offer discounts. There may be others. (If you know...

Thanks for the reply. That's a little more than I want to invest. I just ordered a Nomad at a good price. I figured the Diamondback was better but not twice as good as the Nomad. If I upgrade I'll skip the Diamondback and look at the Viper line (and others in that price range.) I discoverEd...

Vortex Diamondback 20-60x60mm spotting scope is out now but I haven't been able to find any good reviews. Does anyone have any experience with it? I have a lead on a good deal for one but I have a few questions. Is it worth the premium over the discontinued but still available Vortex...

Re: Which Bushnell product for 308 build? Thanks for the replies. I've filled out my profile. The Fusion 1600 is more than I wanted to spend (discount or not). Seems the 4200 6-24x looks like a good value even a street prices. Any thoughts on the Bushnell Elite 1500 rangefinder? That's more...

You guy might have had similar situations or know the deal. I've got a friend who says he knows someone whose cousin (or something like that) can get Bushnell products at a good price. I'm looking for a scope, spotting scope and maybe range finder for a 308 build I have in mind. I'm very...
