    Rifle Scopes What magnification do you set focus/diopter with...

    Ahead of the arrival of my ZCO 527 today on the brown truck, I was researching this subject a little bit in an effort to get the most out the optic. I heard ZCO recommends setting the focus at the lowest magnification within the range. I had previously been told the opposite and to use max...

    Timney 510 trigger adjustment

    I have a practically new Timney 510 in my equally new Remington 700. The instructions that come with it suggest backing the screw on the front of the trigger assembly out to decrease trigger weight. There are 2 screws in that location, and the instructions do not indicate which one to...

    Rifle Scopes In what units do you "think" about adjustment?

    Kind of an open ended question for you guys- When I was starting off about a year ago, (mildot reticle, MOA knobs), my train of thought would go something like this: 1. Range estimation with mils (if UD) 2. Lookup (or recall from memory) come ups in MOA, dial it in 3. For adjusting after shot...

    I put my new Meuller 8.5-25 on my 10/22 and I'm maxed out of "UP" adjustment and I'm still 2" low and 25 yards. Any suggestions? I have access to a mill so I can mill the top of the scope mount or the bottom of one of the rings to build adjustment it. But before I do that I thought I'd see...

    40X trigger adjustment

    I have a 40X 22 rimfire and I am needing some assistance in the adjustment area. This trigger is the one with the adjustment screw in the trigger itself along with the 3 screws in the housing. Right now it has the pull of a 2 stage trigger, a little take up and then breaks clean. How do I adjust...

    Gunsmithing Trigger adjustment

    I posted this question and got no hits, probably because I posted it in the wrong section. Anyway I would like a lighter trigger pull on a 10/22 trigger. I am not a gunsmith just a tinkerer. I took the trigger apart and polished it, which took me several hours to put it back together. I...

Nothing fancy just a hogue stock with a tac sol bull barrel 16.5 inch with a 3x9 bushnell. I have the moa adjustments from here for those...

    Rifle Scopes 50 MOA internal adjustment + 20 MOA base?

    With a scope with 50 MOA internal adjustment (specifically, I'm loking at the Nikon Buckmasters 4.5-14), that gives +/- 25 MOA from “center”, right? Assuming a 100-yard zero requires ~4 MOA (3.935, according to JBM) that would leave me 21 MOA of drop compensation before the scope bottoms out...

    Gunsmithing Trigger Adjustment?

    How do you adjust a xpro or xmark or whatever the new remington triggers are called? There's a small allen screw in the back of the trigger. Is that the adjustment screw? I hate these new triggers!

    Rifle Scopes motorized zoom adjustment

    I searched using "motorized zoom adjustment" and came up with nothing. So here's the question. Why isn't this a feature on some scopes for fast ranging and target acquisition with just a scope reticle. Seems like at least they could make something like a spring loaded zero stop for magnification...
