    Help identifying .270 win rifle

    Help needed on Proof barrel

    That's why I love this place. The depth of knowledge is amazing. Apparently that knowledge is so highly regarded by a major manufacturer that they have a designated individual as the go to for SH related questions.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Guns and coffee

    @azbiker, I've always wondered about the Korth. I've owned a lot of good revolvers to include Mdl. 27-2, 4" and 6" Pythons both seventies vintage, two L frames one of which was highly tuned, etc. etc. What is the allure of the Korth? Is it the trigger, the lock up, the fit and finish, or?

    SIG SAUER P210 TARGET NITRON/WALNUT 9MM 5-INCH

    I would be interested if someone could compare the 210 to a higher end 9mm 1911 like Nighthawk or Wilson. A Dan Wesson might be even better as it is closer to the price of the 210.

    Informed Opinions - EOTECH Vudu vs NX8 and Others... (help a guy out)

    I've enjoyed following this thread particularly the views of @deersniper who has a VUDU and apparently three of the NX8s. The problem is that every decent scope has compromises. If you want a super short there will be compromises. Weight, depth of field, eye relief, image clarity...

    Informed Opinions - EOTECH Vudu vs NX8 and Others... (help a guy out)

    If the green illum. is a deal-breaker than the VUDU is out. In the H-59 illum. is red on mine and to the best of my knowledge there is no green option. If red is acceptable than I think the Vudu is a good option but not in the $2K range. It's a good option in the $1.5K range. I am not an...

    Rifle Scopes Sub $350 scope for a practice/ coyote gun

    This looks awesome. The previous offerings were second focal plane and got good reviews. They were made at a Sightron owned facility in the Philippines. The ten yard parallax would be great for NRL .22. If you go this way please post a review in this thread.

    Winchester 52's

    @Calfed it looks like you are well equipped to compete including the new games. Both of the single shots will work for various NRA competitions. They are also ideal for .22 F-Class which requires single loading. The 52B is mag fed so fits NRL.22 and PRS.22. Any of the three can be used in...
