Couple weeks ago bought a NXS 5.5-22. first Nightforce i bought, haven't had any gun time behind it but just looking through it when the...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver Tactical 1-5 Power Vs SS 1-6 power

    Have a Weaver 1-5 tactical, I like most things about it except for some reason when i go from 4 to 5 power i can't keep the retical and the image in focus. One or the other is slightly off no matter how i adjust the diopter. It's darn aggrevating, 4 power and below it is okay. Maybe it's just...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone running a Vortex Razor 1-6x24 on a Bobro mount?

    Have a razor 1-6 mounted on a Bobro slightly extended on a Sig 516. It's a good fit. The razor has a large eyepiece and power ring. Don't think the extra extended would work on the razor, the power ring wouldn't clear the rear of the mount.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VXR Patrol 1.25-4

    Yup the reticle on the patrol is a bit on the thick side, for more percise paper punching the viper would be preferable.

    Rifle Scopes Brobo Mount

    Not sure how Bobro's are made. Think there are some kinda springs in there. Fit and finish on em is top notch, they are very easy to take on and off, nothing to adjust or guess work involved. The locking lever has a nice feel to it, and when you lock it down "it aint gonna move".

    Suppressors Is the Gemtech HVT really so bad?

    Re: Is the Gemtech HVT really so bad? At the time I bought my HVT the Sandstorm wasn't yet available. Have the treaded version, use it mostly on a T/C Encore 300 Whisper JD Jones barrel. For shits and giggles sometimes in the Fall, I'll shoot dried up weed stems with it. Can't say have...

    Suppressors Blowback and cleaning your precision rifles?

    Re: Blowback and cleaning your precision rifles? I try and clean the crown and threads after every shooting session. If i don't get around to it and the carbon buildup gets hard and "crusty" on the crown, body compound,like the stuff you can buy in the dremel section of a hardware store, put...

    Suppressors Gemtech

    Re: Gemtech Do have an all stainless Trek on savage bolt .223. Got it a couple years ago when they first came out. Seems like a well made suppressor that gets rid of the muzzle blast.
