    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS Vs Nightforce Benchrest Scopes

    Well until today I had only ever used Nightfore NXS series scopes. Have always been happy with them. Today I fired a mates rifle during an F Class shoot. It had a Nightfore Benchrest series scope attached. Yes I am aware of all the obvious differences in these scopes, but to be honest, I was...

    New AI

    Re: New AI Hi Fuscalino, I have an AE Mk1, it gets used for range & field work. It must shoot well as I have made it into representative F/TR teams twice with it in the last 2 years, it also won the club championship, & would have won the district championship except for the driver :-) Still...

    Re: Fast follow up shot with AI (AW/AICS) ? Mate as an AI user I have to say that it is really easily done. In fact, all you need to know can be found here on this very website. It's called - Snipers Hide Online Training. Sign up & get the good oil............

    Value of a Enfield SMLE?

    Re: Value of a Enfield SMLE? Hi Mate, What you have there is an Australian made SMLE rifle. Lithgow is the name of the city ( small coal mining town in the mountains ) where the rifle was made. From what you say all the numbers are matching. The "GLAZ" stamp is actually "SLAZ" & stands for...

    Accuracy Int AE ?

    Re: Accoracy Int AE ? I suppose I could ask if you really want to change that often...........but I wont mate. I doubt that normal barrel off & on will wear the action threads at all unless you are doing something really stupid like not keeping them free of grit & debris. Over tourque may...

    Accuracy Int AE ?

    Re: Accoracy Int AE ? I have an AE in .308, I ordered a barrel from Maddco ( Toowoomba Australia who where one of the contract barrel makers for AI ) & they made me one up to the same spec as used in the AW. It bolted in & headspaced perfectly. So at least in .308 the AE & AW barrels will...

    Re: Recoil off bipod The rifle didn't just decide to fuck us, we fucked ourselves mentally. Once you let this shit in your head you're done. That my dear fellow is just Gold. Pure Gold.

    accuracy international barrels

    Re: accuracy international barrels Yep they did use Maddco. FWIW Maddco can still do AI barrels to order - I got one recently & it spun on & headspaced perfectly.

    Lapua factory Subsonic ammo

    Re: Lapua factory Subsonic ammo Sorry - cant help with the factory powder. FWIW I have shot quite a few of these rounds - when the supply ran out I was able to duplicate it fairly well using the Lapua projectile & 11.5 grains of Trailboss powder. Works a treat.

    AI AE MKII question...

    Re: AI AE MKII question... I am expecting my AEMK2 in July - will let you know what the trigger is like when it shows up. If it is as good as my older AE it will be great.

    Please identify Parker Hale Model

    Re: Please identify Parker Hale Model Looks like the Model 84 target rifle ( no not the Model 82 or the 1200TX ). Not seen one of those in a long time...........

    AE vs AW

    Re: AE vs AW Ummmmm - Ok. Went through this myself. In practical terms I can see no real advantage of an AW to an AE for a normal non military end user. Both change barrels quick - although the AW is a little quicker. There are the magazine differences but no one is shooting back at me so it...

    Rifle Scopes recommend a repair shop for Kahles zf84 6x42 ?

    Re: recommend a repair shop for Kahles zf84 6x42 ? Sorry mate, like C99 said - that is not a Kahles scope. There is a mob out of Israel that sell these on Ebay as Kahles scopes - they are made in Europe I believe. There was a batch of these sold in Australia a few years ago - I remember...

    Re: recommend a repair shop for Kahles zf84 6x42 ? Send it to Kahles - no if's, no but's. They have done both a ZF69 & a ZF84 for me over the years & they have been returned as new - even externally refinished. FWIW

    Re: stiener 8x30 military binos Steiner 8x30 - had my first set for 15 years. They saw field & deployment use across a great variety of terrain & weather conditions & never let me down. I purchased a new set about 2 years ago & I must say that they have only improved. Fairly bomb proof &...
