    Rifle Scopes should i Buy another G2 razor or should i try a NF ATACR F1 or AMG

    I don't think I'd say that one scope is better than the other. Just different. The Razor definitely has a thinner reticle however the Atacr doesn't have an overly thick reticle, just bolder. You don't have the Christmas tree reticle with the Atacr but it's still a nice, usable reticle. Glass...

    Rifle Scopes should i Buy another G2 razor or should i try a NF ATACR F1 or AMG

    I've tried two Gen II Razors and the reticle just isn't bold enough for me. Loved the scopes. Glass was great. Turrets were great and I didn't mind the weight but had trouble with the thin reticle. I like the Atacr reticle and glass is great but would rather have the Razor if it had a little...

    22rf velocity and barrrel length

    That's what I was told on another thread that target/sub ammo loses speed after 16-18" I have a 77/22 that I had the barrel shortened to 16.5" and have a CZ 455 with a 24" barrel. I should try that out. Weather here in Kansas isn't very nice right now though.

    CZ455 zero range and ammo selection

    If you sight in at 50 then you'll have 7" drop at 100. JBM has ballistics for Eley, which matches other standard velocity.22 pretty closely. You can use that to decide how much hold you want to use. If you sight in at 100 then you'll have to hold low at 50. Best thing to do is save up a little...

    Rifle Scopes Hide vendors for optics

    Scott at Liberty Optics and Razor Gen II would be my suggestion.

    Rifle Scopes Input wanted on boxtest (tall target) results

    I don't shoot box test anymore because of the results you are seeing. You need to take a look at Killshots scope test and try to duplicate it best you can. By shooting the targets you are introducing human error. Not knocking your shooting ability, just fact. I don't have a setup like KS but...

    Question about chassis/stock for 2500XR

    Yeah I read your thread otherwise I would have thought it would sit in any chassis/stock. That was a lot of info. Thanks. I have an AICS that I'd like to put it in but don't want to have to modify any stock that I currently have. Dennis/Flatland1 is helping me out. I tried to get him to sell me...

    CZ455 build

    Mine in the Manners liked the front screw torqued to 32 in lbs and the back screw to 28. That Manners, while probably not as good of construction as a standard T4, is a pretty nice stock for a .22 trainer. I'd torque the screws in the chassis higher than the Manners. There was a pretty big...

    Anyone put one of the Stiller actions in a Manners with mini chassis?

    Question about chassis/stock for 2500XR

    For those of you that have built trainers using the Stiller 2500xr action what chassis or stock are you using? I'd like to put one in my AI chassis however there will be a rather large hole from the mag well. Do you have any trouble seating ten round mags or is it just a cosmetic problem? Thanks.

    ReMage: Criterion vs Mcgowen???

    My son had his action trued. If I was to do it I would lap the lugs and screw the barrel on and call it a day. Actually I think I'd start with a new action instead of a donor action. One thing I would suggest. When we got my son's back from the gunsmith I checked the headspacing and found it...

    Rifle Scopes Problem with Nightforce ATACR ZeroHOLD feature

    I bought a used Atacr off of SH and couldn't figure out how to reset the zero stop. Called them and they explained it over the phone. Turns out I was trying to make it much harder than it is. It's an easy zero stop. The SHV is even easier.

    Well.. took the plunge. 40X on the way to Jelrod

    I got to see Flatland1 Jelrod modified 40X last Sunday. Very nice rifle. It weighs very close to what my Bighorn in a AI chassis weighs which would make it ideal as a trainer. I like my CZ in a manners but it is no where close to the weight and feel of my centerfire rifle. With the magazine...

    Rifle Scopes MIL/MIL or MOA

    I've never done much of ranging targets using the reticle and that is where trying to understand the difference between one and the other would make a difference, IMO. Using mil reticle and changing from inches to mils seems easy because one mil is a 36 inches at 1000 yards. If you need to...

    Annealling?

    For accurate ammunition the goal is consistency. Annealing allows for more consistent neck tension. There's lots of theories as to the best way to anneal and some will argue that the socket and torch method works however there isn't any way to be consistent and over annealing can be a problem...

    Rifle Scopes 1300 budget for optic

    I've recently purchased the SHV F1 and it currently is on my .22. For me the jury is still out. I'm one that likes a thicker reticle but this reticle gets pretty thick. With most scopes getting 10 mils per turn of the turret, this one only has 5. But the glass is very clear and the zero stop is...

    Cz 455 precision trainer question

    Yeah doesn't make much sense. I bought the 24" vpt off Buds and prefer the longer barrel for the velocity.
