    To Zero Stop or Not

    After doing a course at Sig with an instructor who was former FBI sniper I would take anything they teach with a pinch of salt. I was far from impressed to be honest. Zero stops make perfect sense.

    All sorted now thank you. I managed to find the operating instructions and from your pointed figured out what I was doing wrong. Should anyone else need the instructions to the kestrel...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Thank you for taking the time to use Gordon’s. At the time I got the crazy results on my brass; soot around the rim only, I had some help from some guys in the U.K. according to QL the viht figures were vastly underrated. I changed to RS62 and was in between chronos when I found the sub half...

    New Leica Geovid Pro 10x42 AB+ with Shot Probability Analysis

    How do you connect the kestrel to the 10x32 AB? I seem to be an idiot and can’t find the instructions anywhere

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    6mm not 6.5 my friend. Thank you anyway. To add, that’s not shabby velocity. Unfortunately 4350 is unobtainable in the U.K.

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Has anyone tried N140 in a 6mm creedmoor shorty? I’m struggling to get velocity or decent obturation. I was thinking I should try a faster powder.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold mk4hd 2,5-10

    Let’s be honest. If you are in Europe buy a European scope such as a Schmidt and Bender, Zeiss or Swarovski. The light transmission will be far better. Zero an inch high and you will be in the kill zone of a fox or roe deer. You won’t need to worry about holding or dialing. A centre fire is very...

    New 3-18x50 Match Pro ED

    Japanese glass would be better I believe. I’ve got three. Bushnell Elites 3-12X44 LRHS 4.5-18X44 LRHSi and just delivery of a 1-6.5X24 ET1624sl second focal plane BTR-2 illuminated reticle. For £180 posted I had to give it a go. The glass is brilliant and will be put on an air rifle for my...

    New 3-18x50 Match Pro ED

    I had not looked at the price I must admit. I’m waiting for something to be released that beats my 3-15X50 Minox ZP5 on weight. The thing is a brick.

    New 3-18x50 Match Pro ED

    I would be happy with a non tree reticle. Once that tree is illuminated at dusk seeing the target will be tough. It would be a great multi purpose scope. Shame the glass won’t be up to scratch with European glass like Swarovski, Schmidt and Bender or Zeiss.

    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    I wonder if there will be a “fix” available at the S&B service centre once the 2 years is up to save having to sell the OG scopes.

    Advice on Custom 7 mm PRC Rifle with Accuracy Issues

    Always insist on the end of the barrel being cut off and coming with the rifle. That way the smith is in no doubt what make the barrel is. Mixing up a barrel is not great though.

    New GPO Super Compact MPVO 4-16 x 44i FFP mil shipping late May

    What I don’t get is, how can a FFP optic’s reticle be any use at the lower end of the mag range. If I need to hold off it will be at a distance greater 100/200 even 300 and I’ll be winding my mag up probably to max at 12 power which isn’t a lot so in SFP the graduations will be true. Well that’s...

    Lightweight custom action

    do you really need a 10 round AW magazine for hunting? If not then I would go with a Sako 90. Double stack magazine 60 degree bolt throw Built in picatinny rail Double ejection plunger Bolt locks closed when safely engaged Carbon fibre stick options.

    The Fix from Q

    I was an early adopter. I have number 59. I shoot .308 and 6.5 creedmoor original barrels and have had a replacement bolt from Q. My rifle has been accurate out of the box and I’m confident it will fire when I pull the trigger. As for Blaser, I had the predecessor to the R8 the R93 I was...

    12rnd Billet AW magazine for BR size cartridges from Gray Ops

    I know we are on the Grey Ops threat. But what’s better about the TL3 for double the price?

    12rnd Billet AW magazine for BR size cartridges from Gray Ops

    AW magazines are night and day compared to AICS. Just think, there is 50% less feed lip bearing down friction across the case body. If I didn’t have to use AICS ever again I’d be happy.
