    Remmy AAC -SD or Tikka T3 Scout Tac???

    Re: Remmy AAC -SD or Tikka T3 Scout Tac??? Have both, the Rem AAC needed a stock change to be really good in my opinion. Also changed out the bottom metal (nylon originally) and after that change I would say there is not any accuracy difference between the two. I do not like the plastic mag...

    How accurate is your AAC-SD?

    Re: How accurate is your AAC-SD? Just a suggestion for you fellows. Do something like I did, search out a inexpensive good stock like the HS Precision 5R take off. There are quite a few around. I say this because when I sat down with my new rifle and was checking out the Hogue stock original...

    Finally found Her - The Swede 96

    Re: Finally found Her - The Swede 96 From what you guys have seen, who makes the best "Scout" scope base to mount a LER scope on her. My old eye's will not do her justice. Saw one type but it sits to high to me. I also do not want to modify any of the original equipment to mount it.

    Finally found Her - The Swede 96

    Re: Finally found Her - The Swede 96 OK, understood. I am looking to put an aperture rear sight on the Swede, either on the original rear sight area or on the reciever (which is what I prefer) but do not want to alter the weapon in any way as she is a mint firearm. Anyone here done that with...
