    40x value

    Re: 40x value I snagged mine for 800$ and it had a no name rail and some Redfield Olympic sights on it. Original owner bought it from the Remington custom shop, passed away from age, and his friend got it who happened to be a Winchester guy. Curious, what is the average barrel length you...

    Why not ask Zeiss and Kahles?

    Re: Why not ask Zeiss and Kahles? I would go for a 500$ replica, and even pay up to, but most likely no more, 750$ if Zeiss made quality ZF39's or other similar models sometimes used on some of the 98's.

    SVDs questions?

    Re: SVDs questions? I feel like questions about the SVD rifle would be better off in the Vintage thread instead of the Semi-Auto's. Anytime one gets brought up here, it's instantly compared to stuff being made today that has 50 years of advancement in firearms technology applied to them. Of...

    SVDs questions?

    Re: SVDs questions? I've been stripping down light ball ammo and only using bullets that weigh in more than 148gr but no more than 149gr, reusing the original powder that is normally anywhere from 46-50gr's and putting in an even 47.5gr's, and setting all the bullets to a 3.02'' over all...

    Anyone ever rebarrel their Savage Mark II?

    Re: Anyone ever rebarrel their Savage Mark II? Ha, I was using the light from the sliding door that they are pointing at so I could torque my rings down and make sure my crosshairs didn't drift and stayed level. The garage was cold, so I stayed in the living room.

    Anyone ever rebarrel their Savage Mark II?

    Which semi-auto would you buy for an investment?

    Re: Which semi-auto would you buy for an investment? Probably a NDM-86 or Tigr. NDM's were what, 800$ 10-15 years ago, now they are ~5000$? I see them only going up for collectors.
