    Rifle Scopes SWFA 1-4x vs 1-6x question

    Re: SWFA 1-4x vs 1-6x question That is correct numbers 2 and 3 were your essentially your responses, I was trying to refine my question. Both answers were great, I just wanted to ask about some things you told me in my first post and see if anyone had any input.

    Rifle Scopes SWFA 1-4x vs 1-6x question

    Hi, does anyone have any opinions as to which scope might function better on 1x between the SWFA SS 1-4x or SWFA SS 1-6x as far speed for up-close shooting is concerned? I'm guessing the 1-4x might be a little better because (1) the circle reticle on the 1-4x is a little smaller and...

    Rifle Scopes 1x setting question

    Hi, does anyone have any opinions as to which scope might function better on 1x between the SWFA SS 1-4x vs SWFA SS 1-6x? I know the 1-6x isn't out yet but does adding that extra 2x magnification and kind of "stretching" the range of magnification have an impact on the 1x setting in any way...

    308 recoil and chest problems

    Hi When I was 18 (4 years ago) I was diagnosed w/ a soft tissue cancer in my right chest wall (this is where the right pectoral muscle is). When they removed the tumor, they also removed about 2/3's of my right chest muscle with it. I was wondering if anyone thinks the recoil from .308 would...

    How much does it cost to change a barrel

    How much does it cost to change a barrel? by this I mean; 1. the cost of labour? 2. does the action need to be blueprinted again (by this I mean I had the action blueprinted the first time I put a new barrel on) 3. plus other work So aside from the cost of the barrel, what would the price be...

    Question building a bolt-action

    Hi, I'm trying to build a bolt-action .308, and my budget is $2,5000. My goal is a rifle that is capable of hitting a torso-sezed target at 1,000 yards with relative ease, whether I can shoot that far is another question, but when the day comes when I can I want a rifle that can take me out to...

    How much would this cost?

    Re: How much would this cost? No, i'm not dead set on an action, or any part for that matter. My objective is to build a rifle that is capable of hitting a torso sized target at 1,000 yards.

    How much would this cost?

    Re: How much would this cost? Actually Ok, how about this, I buy a Rem 700 of my choice, then just change the stock, barrel and trigger to what I listed in my first post? would that be cheaper than my original plan? I assume I wouldn't have to buy and bottom metal? would truing and...

    How much would this cost?

    Re: How much would this cost? Lord have mercy...I thought this would be like putting together lego's or something. Question 1. Does a Remington 700 action you can buy from brownells have to be trued and blueprinted? question 2. If I just bought a Rem 700 rifle and took out the action (the...

    Is this set-up good for 1,000 yards?

    Re: Is this set-up good for 1,000 yards? well, regardless of glass is the rifle itself capable? Can that rifle hit a torso sized target reasonably well at 1,000 yards? <span style="text-decoration: underline">Maybe I can hit a 1,000 yard torso sized target maybe I can't...never even tried...

    Is this set-up good for 1,000 yards?

    Re: Is this set-up good for 1,000 yards? What if a Krieger match grade barrel was installed instead of the stock Remington barrel? It would be a 26" barrel with 5R rifling.

    Is this set-up good for 1,000 yards?

    Hi, i'm considering building a bolt-action rifle for precision shooting from 100 to 1,000 yards. If I were to customize a Remington 700 (specifics of set-up below), what kind of accuracy (in MOA) is this rifle capable* of at 1,000 yards? Is the rifle capable* of hitting a torso sized target...

    pratical MOA for 16" SS at 500 yds w/ 4x mag.

    I'm wondering if anyone can estimate what would be a pratical grouping size (MOA) of a 5 shot group from a 16" noveske stainless barrel at 500 yards with 4x magnification (reticle thickness would be .5 moa) on an area shiloutte? as well as what MOA does anyone think that setup (not me) is fully...
