    Savage 10TR .308 - What is this thing?

    The base is standard (0 moa) EGW base, havent heard any complaints yet, but you could eventually google for some to be sure. On the other hand, if you were up to some LR shooting, you should look for canted base anyway. Does FCP have an AccuStock and AccuTrigger as 10TR has? This might be the...

    Rifle Scopes Has Anyone Else Seen This on Burris XTR's?

    I was thinking about this too. Both sets I got have it the same way. Eventually I'll try to knock the crossbolts out and seat it reverse to use larger friction surfaces, thanks. (Needless to say with proper torque settings I noticed no shift anyway.)

    Rifle Scopes Anyone ever used a Falcon Menace 5x25x50 ML16

    I have a B20 reticle, but overall the same - 5-25x50 FFP... For this money, you are buying especially its features. Glass is not bad, I was able to see some .308 hits at 300m (328y) paper - but only having optimal light conditions. There are for sure some problems like lower resolution...

    Strelok temp sensitivity factor

    There is a description of this formula on Strelok+ page: www.borisov.mobi/StrelokPlus/ Without any guarantee but it makes sense to me this should be valid for all Strelok versions. Hope it helps.

    Rifle Scopes Scope help for a newer long range shooter please!

    breitling: What about Sightron SIII 6-24x50 ffp? Might that be another option for your thoughts? I'd stick to moa/moa or (better for me) mil/mil anyway...!

    Rifle Scopes My inexpensive way of leveling scopes when mounted. (with pics)

    Thanks for reply, I was thinking about quite same cant you mentioned but I tried to calculate some either. Lets say the rifle could have common 2 inches from the bore axis to the scope axis - and a total height of 5 inches (from the bottom tip of recoil pad to the top of scope). I can...

    Rifle Scopes My inexpensive way of leveling scopes when mounted. (with pics)

    May I ask a question? I am a little confused... Let me show these two examples. #1: Lets assume we have a rifle that is LEVELED before scope is leveled. Aka "unfriendly" rifle position shooting: When bullet leaves the muzzle, it is directly UNDER the line of sight. When the bullet hits the...
