    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3i Feedback

    I've never been behind the illuminated xtr3, but the old one is significantly better than a viper in every way. When it comes to glass quality, I even prefer the xtr3 over my MK5's. In mild conditions, they may look close to the untrained eye, but in harsh conditions, they really stand apart.

    Is it worth the money to add balastic option

    If you are using them for hunting, it's absolutely worth it. If just for the range, put it toward a kestrel.

    Osprey Barrel Works range reports?

    I only have experience with one so far. A 6.5 creed prefit. But it shoots everything I throw down it very well, and cleans easily. I have 1k rounds on it and judging by the fire cracking and wear, or lack thereof; I should get more out of it than previous barrels. I'm working on 2 builds...

    Tikka prefit options

    I've never had any fluting done. All the barrels I order from him are MTU profile, so nothing lightweight.

    Tikka prefit options

    I've ordered multiple barrels from Anthony for tikkas. All nut barrels, but they've all been excellent and are usually at your doorstep in a week or two. He'll make a shouldered barrel, but last time I checked he wanted you to send in the action.

    6.5 creedmore muzzle velocity from 18" or 20" Barrell

    I was able to safely get 2800 with 140's from my 20" CTR barrel. No pressure. RL16 and sta-ball will get you speed.

    Your PVA prefit experience

    I've only had experience with one so far. An osprey tikka prefit. While tuning a load for it I couldn't get it to shoot over a 1/2" group, it shot everything so well it's stupid. Planning on ordering some more soon.

    Are there any common wildcat 50 subsonic choices for a bolt action other than the Whispers?

    458 from a Rigby. 300 bo on the left for reference. Don't know of any cheap and easy way though.

    Question for Vortex Fury HD 5000 Owners

    Yes, I'd buy again. They've done everything I have expected. PRS: ranging targets out to 1200 yds on a bright sunny day is about max. Darker/cloudy conditions they'll go to what is advertised. I don't use the ballistics for matches, just to confirm range to target. Hunting: This is where they...

    New Leica Geovid Pro and AB upgrade for legacy .com products

    Interested to see if AB elite will truly work as a stand-alone like the fury's. If so I'll be trading my furys for these.

    300 PRC factory rifle

    If it were me, I'd go custom just off what you will be using it for. If it was a hunting rifle factory would be ok because factory options all come with lighter barrel contours. An MTU or larger barrel is what you'll want if you're just laying down and shooting. You'll get better accuracy...

    How good is the Vortex Fury 5000 AB?

    They can be had for less, but not much less new. They haven't been available new for a year or two.

    Do All Hunting Round Decision? Rifle Build help

    So you already have a long action setup you don't want to modify for the 300 PRC. You're worried 6.5 might not have the punch of a 30 cal. The belt on a WM is no big deal when reloading, like said above it's just an easy bitch when comparing newer cartridges because it's not needed. If you...

    Mid cost entry rifle and gear

    Tikka ctr will shoot great from the start and is solid enough to build off of later. $1100 Euro optic still has gen2 pst's with the 2c reticle on sale for $550-$650. You get alot of scope for that price. Add in some good rings for $100 and you'll be ready to go for $1850. As far as other...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3!!!

    I bet heak shrink tubing would work great for this as well and would look a little nicer.

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3!!!

    Same here. However I'm giving one or two of these a try instead of the gen3 razor. Not saying they're better, but it seems like you're getting a ton for your money.
