    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x50mm M5 opinions?

    Re: Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x50mm M5 opinions? Oh damn, I figured the NXS would be FFP. Ha, this isn't easy.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x50mm M5 opinions?

    Re: Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x50mm M5 opinions? All right, I think I've settled on a Nightforce NXS. I almost feel guilty putting it on a sub-$1000 rifle but I think it's the best for what I want to do. I've yet to see anyone say a bad thing about these, and it's almost unanimous that the...

    Re: Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x50mm M5 opinions? Ahh, OK, I thought the Mil-Dot would be better for range estimation; I'll look for a TMR instead, which makes sense when I think about it. Thanks!

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x50mm M5 opinions?

    Hi, I'm very close to buying this scope to put atop a Remington 700P LTR 20" .308 on a badger ordnance 20 MOA base. I just purchased the rifle today. It's the scope seen HERE with a mil dot reticle (110081). Primarily I will use this rifle for medium to long range target shooting from 50...

    Need Setup for Level 1 Rifle Class (700 LTR?)

    Re: Need Setup for Level 1 Rifle Class (700 LTR?) Well I bought my LTR today for about $900 which I thought was an OK deal, freeing up a bit more budget for optics. I'm thinking of stepping up to a Leupold Mark 4 ER/T 4.5-14x30 M5 front focal as seen here...

    Need Setup for Level 1 Rifle Class (700 LTR?)

    Hi, I'm planning to take the following class at Tiger Valley in June: http://www.tigervalley.com/tvciv_rifle1.php I'd like to spend less than $3000 on a setup, I currently don't have anything capable of shooting less than 1 MOA, which is required for the course. Right now I'm leaning toward a...

    Rifle Scopes Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings

    Re: Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings Well after I cranked down on the rings as hard as I could by hand with the supplied torx head allen wrench, I took it to the range today. The scope held steady after 50 rounds. Unfortunately I couldn't get the eyepiece focus adjusted...

    Rifle Scopes Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings

    Re: Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings Guys, it's a removable scope mount. I do use the rifle primarily with irons. If you haven't heard of it, check out http://www.bassettmachine.com/ . It returns to within 1/2 MOA of zero when removed and reinstalled (comes with a torque...

    Rifle Scopes Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings

    Re: Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings Thanks...yeah, I guess I should probably just break down and buy the torque wrench before I resort to a gunsmith. I thought I had them pretty tight, and after the scope moved there were white scrape marks on it. I guess I was just too...

    Rifle Scopes Scope moves under recoil: SWFA SS 10x42 &SS Rings

    Hi, First off I'm a total novice. This is the first time I've ever tried to mount a scope so I probably did something dumb. I have an LRB M14 that I've attempted to mount a Super Sniper 10x42 scope on. I bought some Super Sniper "low" picatinny rings to go with it. The scope mount is a...

    m1a problem

    Re: m1a problem I would just like to add that my M1A scout has this exact problem, but my gas plug is not lose nor does it come lose. I have sent it back to springfield twice but it still does it. In the mean time I have ordered a USGI spec trigger group because I suspect the trigger...

    Marksmen issued better M14 rifles in Afghanistan

    Re: Marksmen issued better rifles in Afghanistan Thanks for the info. I just ordered my second M14 type rifle, this time an LRB tanker with an 18.5" criterion barrel. I figure the M14 is accurate enough to get reliable hits out to 400 yards in its stock form....beyond that I'll probably...

    Marksmen issued better M14 rifles in Afghanistan

    Re: Marksmen issued better rifles in Afghanistan I'm just a civilian but are you guys finding the 7.62 AR type rifle reliable under combat conditions? Reliability is always the biggest knock I hear on the M110 style weapons - I even read somewhere that they shouldn't be fired any more than...

    Spotting < $400: Vortex Skyline vs. Konus 7120

    I shoot an M1A in high power and would like a spotting scope that can discern 7.62 holes out to 500 yards in daylight. Most of my shooting is done inside of 200 though (due to range limitations). The Konus is less than half the prices of the Vortex, but gets good reviews from what I've read...

    Guilt over buying a rifle with an H-S precision?

    I apologize if this is an inappropriate topic, but just wanted some opinions. I'm considering a Remington 700p but am hesitant because it has an HS precision stock. I'm new to precision shooting but I recently read that there was some controversy over their advertisement in which they flaunted...

    What is your favorite U.S. sniper rifle?

    Re: What is your favorite U.S. sniper rifle? M21. I just like M14's and M1A's, and that's the "sniper" version of it.
