    Diversified Innovative Products+ EGW base review

    Re: RIMFIRE TECHNOLOGIES / EGW MOA BASE review I have been using the RT on a CZ for over a year. Great customer service. I do wish they would add the right sized tool with the order though for a few dollars more. The three hour search it took me to find mine was time that I cannot get back.

    Surgeon Rifles?

    Re: Surgeon Rifles? Total win of an experience. Surgeon rifles just seem to have a lot of heart. Your great grandson will be so happy you made this decision. (Disregard the picture of Billy Barty superimposed. It is meant just as a frame of reference.)

    Sling effect on 22LR

    Re: Sling effect on 22LR Bring it in. Try dry-firing on a snapcap with a close-in 1 inch black square. See if you move or if there is any adjustment in your follow through. You might have it too tight in the shoulder. Otherwise, it could be the wind.
