    Meopta 30 X 60 WA or 20 X 70 Eyepiece

    Curios to the pros and cons of each for the MeoStar S2 82? Just got surprised with a new spotter with the 30 X 60 WA eyepiece. Wondering if the 20 X 70 may give one more options. Thanks, DV

    Remington Action SAUM size vs. .308 SA size

    Is the Remington 700 SAUM action footprint the same as a SA 700 .308? Can I use the same stock for both actions? Thanks, DV

    Brand new shooter.... Spend $500 on match ammo or $800 reloading equip and supplies??

    You'll be happy with this choice. It took me awhile to jump in, not looking back now. Just commit to doing it right, safe, read and re-read. I can't imagine buying factory ammo now. Good luck.

    tikka smiths? In CA?

    A Tikka owner myself, I think your going to have to use the mail system to get something done. If Marc's commitments have him busy, there's nobody else I'd trust locally. Good luck.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Wheel Gun Holster

    Added a S&W 686, 4" barrel to the collection and need holster advice. The pistol will mostly be carried in the back country, concealable is good, OWB at the hip preferred. Is Kydex an option for revolvers? Okay with leather? Need help from you guys. DV

    EGW Bag-Rider System

    I think the set screw is just used for something to grab on, once installed the set screw will be unscrewed. Slightly screw it in, pull on it (against the spring) for the rider system to go over the rail, release the set screw and unscrew it. Sometime if it gets too loose the spring will fall...

    Tikka Performance (website) and Jard??

    I've dropped some cash with those guys, I'm with the above responses great service and easy to get a hold of. I do run a Jard trigger on one of my Tikka rifles and very happy with it. It's the lightest model available (think 12 oz), it breaks at about 8-10 ozs, perfect for my bench rest rifle...

    Forster Co Ax the right step for my knowledge/situation?

    Good information above. I too started loading with a Co-Ax (first press) for rifle cartridges. Read everything I could before making the purchase, very happy with it. Slowly moving to a Dillon 550 for handgun cartridges, still waiting on parts for it.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Recommend a gunbelt

    Yeah, Ares gets my vote too. TAB Gear has a pretty cool one too, similar to the Ares and may be a bit easier to install and remove as it doesn't overlap (I think). I do use the Ares.
