I wouldn't think your bore over height is an issue as long as you have the same cheek weld between the two guns

For what it's worth I have plenty of clearance for the bolt handle. The only issue was running a throw lever on the magnification ring, I had to make sure it was biased towards the left side of the gun so it stays out of the way.

I have a CZ455 Varmint in the wood CZ stock with the 30 MOA Area 419 rail and an Athlon Ares BTR 4.5-27x50. Using the lowest rings I could find (Vortex Hunter lows) the cheek weld is perfect with no riser. Disclaimer - I have a big fat Korean head so your mileage may vary. It takes me about 11...

I think people have tested individual examples of much more expensive premium scopes to have 2-4% tracking error, including S&Bs. If you don't think it's worth your time to stick with Athlon then go with another brand you trust but you never know when you'll get a lemon and I wouldn't write off...

Any AR-15 grip I believe. The one that comes with it is really nice, you may want to hold off on ordering a grip until you try it.

Nah it's not trying to flip over on me. I think either the side or the front would work fine. The barrel rides high enough and the channel has so much room that I don't think there's even a remote chance of barrel contact if you put a flush cup in the side

It's no lightweight woods gun but not bad if I slide the bipod out of the way. The Warne Skyline is a bit chunky

Not the most elegant solution but it works

Came in yesterday. Got my bottom bolt release Precision Carbine bolted in and it fit perfectly. The PMAG needed a little futzing with the feed lips to fit in the Savage action but it feeds fine. A 300mm generic Arca rail fit the fore end exactly.. I just cut a little notch in it where it bends...

Will this work with the new Savage 110 Prairie Hunter in 224 Valk and are there any plans to offer mags in 6.8SPC/224 valkyrie? Getting one for my 308 Precision Carbine regardless but I'd get a Prairie Hunter if I could find a chassis option

Re: 1/10 MOA mid-range MIL-dot scope shopping From the shopping around I did it came down to the Weaver or the Viper PST, however the wait for FFP PSTs was a little too much for me so I got the Weaver. I prefer the reticle in the Vortex but the Weaver does have mil-donuts with half-mil hash...

Re: iPhone video through scope (Now with Video) Seen this yet? Lady rigged up her sony handycam with nightshot to her scope :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brZfAFvlBD0&feature=related

Re: show some pics of your rimfire sticks!! Picked up this 10/22 International last week for an Appleseed gun. Dropped in a Volquartsen hammer and bolt release and will probably leave it like this.

Re: Researching to buy a GsG-5, need some first hand I have a pre-lawsuit GSG-5. It's about as accurate as a stock 10/22. A lot of fun, but you cannot run it dirty. I field-strip, clean and lightly lube after every range trip. The last round bolt hold open and mag safety can get stuck if you...

Re: Anyone load for Saiga 308? Bullet? Charge? I got lucky in that my S308 seems to like the dirt cheap Tula ammo. It hovers around 2 MOA with that stuff, which is much better than the results I got with American Eagle and Remington Powerpoints. It might be worth a try, at $6 a box you're...

Re: Scoping a Battle RIfle (308) If I recall correctly some of those .308 ACOGS are calibrated for machine guns and will be way off with an AR so just be sure you're looking at the right scope.

Re: Romanian PSL questions I may still get a PSL just because they look mean and have that old school com bloc feel. That said, I have a Saiga 308 22" that shoots cheap Russian steel cased ammo around 2 MOA and I wouldn't expect a PSL to do any better. The Saiga actually has a stiffer...

Re: New Savage models Tested out the rifle at 300 yards today with a 168gr SMK over 42.7 grains of Varget. It was about 12 degrees out with a 10-15 mph wind. There was probably a foot of drifted snow over the range and judging by the footprints, the only thing that had been here since I went...

Re: New Savage models I believe it does have the same barrel profile as the PC except for the fluting. So far it shoots FGMM very well. I've got 100 rounds of FGMM through it so far and it is averaging about .65-.85 MOA @ 100 yards - 5 shot groups. Cold bore shot consistently lands about 3/4"...

Re: Romanian PSL questions If this is about precision shooting on a budget you may be better off getting an SPS tactical and a single stage reloading press. I picked up a Savage 10 PC in .308 and the Lee Anniversary kit press and am making more ammo than I ever could have afforded a while ago.
