    Anyone have experience with Rigid Alloy - specifically for the Savage Mkii?

    That's what I mean about their site. "SRF" is never listed on their site's product page. All I see is a chassis available for Savage E receivers. Regardless.- how's the weight? And I assume it takes Mil spec tub but can you confirm?

    Anyone have experience with Rigid Alloy - specifically for the Savage Mkii?

    I slept on the MDT Black friday/blem sale and now thinking I'll go the Rigid Alloy route on their next sale. Does anyone have experience with their chassis for the Mkii? (not the one made for CZ). Their website is lacking so if anyone cares to send any info they have on theirs, that'd be...

    Man, I'd love to get my MKII into an Element. I've got my .308 shorty in an Element and would be ecstatic to have an trainer for it.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    It really seems like Athlon is where it's at these days for budget scope. I'll give Doug a call on Monday. Thanks everyone for the input. Now we just need to get Cameraland to carry rings so I can order everything from the same place.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    Ah. I thought vortex would repair/place anything (even if my 5yr old dropped it) but athlon was more of a "defect or normal conditions." That review is what got me interested in the Athlon originally. The Talos makes more sense for what I'm going for (vs the Argos) based on that review.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    Have you shot behind the DB Tac? This is a tough decision. There doesn't seem to be a clear winner. I don't care for the illumination feature so it really comes down controls and glass.

    Im looking to stay with the FFP line of scopes so it'll match my other scope.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    Is the glass the same between the Argos and the Talos? Is it worth the $50 or so to go with the Argos?

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    This is good info. Thanks. I can't play the step-up in price game with this rifle so have to stay under $300 when all is said and done.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    If you had the opportunity, would you get the Talos again or would you consider the Vortex? I was 100% on the Talos but now heavily considering the Vortex just for their warranty. It being on a 22 also means it'll be the rifle my 5 year old learns on. Having that warranty seems like a win.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    I spoke to Doug at Cameraland and he was helpful and offered a great price on the Talos BTR 4-14. I came home tonight and was looking around at the forums on the Talos and came across the new Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16 FFP. They seem similar and the price is essentially a wash (plus, I...

    XLR Element owners - anyone interested in a "mid-length" swiss-arca rail? question inside.

    I totally agree with this. I asked them about arca plates and was told to contact another company since they're making what I am looking for. The Element is a great chassis but it definitely felt like they're just not into supporting it and rather steering people towards the Envy. And I, like...

    XLR Element owners - anyone interested in a "mid-length" swiss-arca rail? question inside.

    Yeah, the key is using the existing threaded holes in the Element. The plate would go from the magwell to the 2nd hole. All told, it looks like it would be about 7" or 8" (total guess without looking at the distance to the 2nd threaded hole).

    XLR Element owners - anyone interested in a "mid-length" swiss-arca rail? question inside.

    Yup, that's exactly what I want. Hoping there's a few more people interested. Todd was great and said they'd figure it out so it'd be cool to get a handful of interested folks to get one. He said they'll be black and would attach at the first two screw holes.

    XLR Element owners - anyone interested in a "mid-length" swiss-arca rail? question inside.

    Main question - Are there any other Element owners that want a swiss-arca section but not the entire length of the forend? background - My issue is that I've already got a pic rail at the forend for my bipod. I have the ADM q/r for my bipod and the bipod is shared between my Element and my gas...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns KKM or Alpha Wolf Glock Barrel.

    This contest shows that it mostly depends on what ammo/tpye of shooting you plan on doing. BUT - if you're just looking for a good, all-around threaded barrel that's the most accurate for the widest range of ammo - KKM won.

    Uhh... McRees may want to rethink this one? Maybe?

    This seems like a terrible idea and whoever decided is was in their best interested should be fired. In a market where there's a handful of options at the same price-point, you're not going to win anyone over by a threat that no court would touch.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Not sure who my examiner was, was too excited after hearing the words "it was approved" to ask. The approval date (Sep 5) sank in after I hung up and looked at my watch. Damn, almost a month has gone by and I still haven't heard word that the stamp was received. I searched around and it seems...
