    Member Link Up North Carolina

    Re: North Carolina Welcome to NC. You aren't going to find public land around here to shoot. Eagle 1 does generally suck. You either have to go far east NC or far West NC to find much distance other than Butner. There is a lot of pistol shooting in the area but rifles, not so much. You are...

    Rifle Scopes Considering 4 scopes

    Re: Considering 4 scopes +1 for the Vortex HS (and yes I have one and love it). The only other one on your list worth considering is the Nikon.

    Help me evaluate my budget build

    Re: Help me evaluate my budget build Useful insight gents. I'm now considering a Sightron SI 3-9x40 mil-dot but no target turrets ($135) and the Weaver Grand Slam Tactical. I'm leaning toward the Sightron since $200 is the top of my optics budget for this beater rifle. Plus total cost would...

    bicycles

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot

    Re: Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot 1. Shims can be ordered from SWFA and a handful of other places for about $4. If you call Vortex they may sell/give them to you. 2. The crosshairs are similar in size to my SWFA Super Sniper. Definitely not as fine as I've seen. But I prefer them a little...

    Re: Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot Brown truck showed up today. My overall impressions of the new Viper HS are very, very good. The scope was boxed up very nicely. Sunshade included. No CRS shims included...not a big deal. Glass is crisp and clear. Magnification works very well. I really...

    Savage Stevens 200 replaced by Axis/Edge?

    Is this true? No more cheap Savage actions? I realized the Axis/Edge has been around for a while now, but I didn't realize that they were killing off the 200.
