    Rifle Scopes Scope to meet my Criteria

    Re: Scope to meet my Criteria I use my 10 yard focus, FFP, high mag scope for fine carpentry work. I set up exactly 10 yards from the lumber and use the reticle for measuring my cuts. I just yell at my son to "move the pencil over .3 mils to the left -- no! not your left, my left." It...

    100 yard groups AAC-SD vs 200 yard groups.

    Re: 100 yard groups AAC-SD vs 200 yard groups. Have someone else try your rifle to see if they have the same results. I don't shoot 100 yards at anything more that 10x. I think I start trying to put body English on follow up shots to hit the first hole in the target. With scope at 10x it...

    glass bedding or new stock?

    Re: glass bedding or new stock? Are there aftermarket recoil lugs for the Savage Accustock? There are nice recoil lugs for non-accustock stocks. What is your current precision? What do you think it should be for a factory Savage with factory barrel?

    Rifle Scopes NSX screw in lens caps

    Re: NSX screw in lens caps Another choice is a glass UV filter from a camera/lens online site. You protect your scope lens and can see through your scope without removing or flipping up a cap. If the screw in lens filter is damaged, just replace it for about $25, or so. When you need the...

    Rifle Scopes NF zero stop worth 200 more

    Re: NF zero stop worth 200 more XTR, I more or less see you point, but your comparisons don't seem to add up. Which Swaro has ballistic/tactical turrets, illumination for 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of the Nightforce scope the OP was talking about? Excluding Nightforce's FFP riflescope the most...

    Re: Gonna try out the Shilen DGR.....in 5 months Here to resurrect a thread from the past. It's been 14 mo. How has the Shilen DGR worked? I've been interested in this action for the same reasons, but can't find much out there on them.

    Gunsmithing It doesn't get any more redneck

    Re: It doesn't get any more redneck No safe queen here! You have it right: You own the rifle; it doesn't own you. Kinda like the freedom that comes with a beater car! Most importantly your rifle functions better than it did before. No answers form me on the PMII/wife question!

    Rifle Scopes One scope on two rifles?? Yay or nay???

    Re: One scope on two rifles?? Yay or nay??? As someone above said, its a personal decision. For me I would rather have one excellent scope sharing time on two rifles, then to have two compromise scopes on two rifles. The beauty here is that you don't have to decide right now. For the...
