    Is my Savage worth upgrading?

    Criterion makes some great pre-fit barrels for Savage rifles .I have one in 260 Rem. with a cheap stock. I have hit a plate at 1760 yards with it. Less than a 1,000 in it so that's not bad.

    Rifle Scopes Dud IOR Terminator?

    Guess I am one of the lucky ones. I've had a Recon for 6 years and not had a problem with it. I have put over 1000 rounds through my Savage in 260 Rem. shooting from 100 yds. out to 1760. Also have the 6-24x56 on a 6.5x47 I love them both. I have never seen my eye reflection in either. Great...

    Rifle Scopes IOR; Recon Gen 2 4-28x50 vs. Tactical Gen 4 6-24x56

    I have both, and like both very much. But I am not one to cretic scopes, I bought them because the glass is very clear and like the extreme reticle. For me the center dot is easy for me to hold on the target weather shooting paper or steel. Did the Michigan Steel shoot last weekend and had no...

    How do you Primer Pocket Uniform?

    K&M by hand!! I have used a drilldriver but thought that enlarged the primer pockets. Lapua brass costs to much .

    Rifle Scopes IOR Bucuresti Scope value

    That could be a loaded question!! There are a lot of people on here that DO NOT like IOR scopes. I have 2 and love them. It seems the old scopes were not made very well!

    260 Rem - Lapua versus Remington Brass

    The Nosler 260 Rem. I bought 3 years ago SUCKED! Pitched half away after 1 or 2 firing because the primer pockets enlarged and would not hold a primer. Back then most complained that their brass was to soft.

    Rifle Scopes Scope Bottoms Out Before Reaching Zero (Savage LA)?

    Sorry I don't understand? You say you are cranking up meaning you are turning the elevation nob up in the direction the arrow shows up? Or are you turning the nob down to raise the reticle up?

    Bipods???

    I bought a Bobro three years ago and love it. It comes with its own picatinny attachment and is very solid. I plan on buying another one day, just not right away. Spent $4200. on scopes in the last few months, buy once cry once. OUCH!

    Rifle Scopes Scope Bottoms Out Before Reaching Zero (Savage LA)?

    I have 5 flat recievered Savages, 2 long and 3 short and they all run 20 moa bases. And I have not had a problem getting a 100 yd. zero. Also I have not bedded any of the bases. I have used EGW, Badger, Farrell. Nightforce and Sekkins and they all work.

    Rifle Scopes Scope $2000-$2500

    I'm using the IOR 4-28x50 40mm Recon on my 308 and there is no comparison with my NXS. The Schott Glass is the clearest of any scope I have looked through.

    Rifle Scopes Ordered: VALDADA IOR 5.8-40x56 40mm Tactical FFP, MOA/MOA

    Hello! My Recon came with the same rings and my scope moved also. The instructions say to wipe the screws and clean out the holes with alcohol, I didn't. Afterword I did clean everything and put some rosin on them and that seems to work for now. I torqued them at 17-18 inch pounds.

    Rifle Scopes Ior valdada

    Phillip61, I don't see this is worth getting banned from this forum. This has turned into a pissing match and you have not helped the IOR Valdada image buy this going back and forth with a lot of people that have had a bad experince with the old IOR scopes. Back in November I bought the 4-28...
