    Rifle Scopes Swfa 3-15hd

    Use a 50mm objective and turrets like the hd 5-20 has, leave the cattail like the current 3-15.

    Rifle Scopes Savage 110 BA glass

    My buddy has the 110 in 338 with the hs stock, whatever model it is. It has the factory brake also, and topped off with a nf Nxs. It has been rock solid. Brakes can be rough on scopes, but his has been unaffected. My vote goes to nf. I have a steel ken farrell base and rings on a 110...

    Is there aftermarket support for 300blk? Worth it?

    My impression was that the 300bkout was intended for the AR 15 platform where it would feed from std. 556 mags. I can't imagine that is even close to a 308, let alone a 6.5 cm. Probably more comparable to the 7.62x39. Bolt rifles can handle most anything, therefore I wouldn't limit myself...

    Kimber mountain .308 or 30-06

    What are you planning to hunt? I have hunting rifles in both chamberings, but grab the '06 99% of the time. I regularly hunt whitetails and feral pigs, where either work equally well. Not much performance difference between the two, but if you plan to hunt larger game such as elk, I'd...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone using the new VX-6?

    I have one of the 3-18x44 with Ill. B&c reticle mounted on a 300wm abolt. Have only zeroed it, waiting on elk season. Will shoot it in the fall in preparation. Impressions so far are positive. One thing to note, the mounting areas of the tube are short. Tricky getting eye relief set if not...

    Rifle Scopes swfa ss 3-15x42?

    I've had good luck with Egw bases and Tps rings for a medium cost solution for a non-magnum rifle. I had the Burris xtr rings and did not like them due to their large size.

    Rifle Scopes Recommenatation for Scope for new Tikka 300 Win.

    For your purpose and budget, that's a good choice. I have the 8-32x56 on a 308 for the same use. No idea how tough it is, but I have found no faults with mine considering the $.

    What do you guys use as a release agent for bedding?

    Kiwi neutral shoe polish. Have also used olive oil cooking spray that worked well except it left some small air pocket voids in the bedding. Normal non-aerosol olive oil should work great.

    Rifle Scopes New scope for my reliable hunting rifle

    I was in a similar situation as you. I have a new abolt II in 300wm and needed a scope mainly for Colorado elk. I thought I wanted a FFP ranging scope, so a ss3-15x42 was mounted. I was never happy with the tall turrets for this application, or weight of the scope for that matter. My...

    Rifle Scopes Savage 12lrp base and rings?

    The ocular housing clearing the rail may be a problem, the objective clearing the barrel won't be. When I had Tps super low rings on my savage 10pc, a ss10x42 had to sit back a little further than I wanted so the rear focus ring didn't hit the rail. Those rings were. 820 high. Since I have...

    Rifle Scopes Savage 12lrp base and rings?

    I'm not familiar with that exact model, is it different? I was under the impression with savage it was short or long action, round or flat back. There may other models that I'm not aware of.
