    Help Identifying Scope Ring Rail, Please

    Afternoon gents, It's been a while, but have considered getting back into precision shooting. As part of the effort, I picked up an old Mark 4 at a police auction. The scope came with Mark 4 rings, and a top ring rail of some kind. I haven't a clue what it is. I figure if anybody would...

    Which Folding Stock is Best?

    I'm building a Rem. 700 SA with an 18" Bartlein. I'd like it to be compact for back-packing and other travel, so I'm looking for a folding stock. I don't have an opportunity to try any of them out, an they're all a bit pricey, so I'm looking to tap some of the expertise on this site. So . . ...

    FNH SPR - To rebarrel or not to rebarrel?

    I picked up an FNH SPR A5M on trade a year or so ago, always intending to get some custom work done to it. It's currently sporting the original 24" heavy varmint (bigger actually) barrel. I imagine it to be blissful to shoot at the range, at which it will spend most of it's time. But I'd...

    Rifle Scopes Absolute Best Fixed Power Scope?

    Okay, so I know I'm going to get some negative feedback about this, as variables, today, are quite good. I just have a preference for a nice 10X scope for range play. Here's the order of importance for me: 1 - Glass 2 - Durability 3 - Mil/Mil with repeatable adjustments 4 - A good...

    Rifle Scopes Government ACOG???

    Hi all, I picked up an ACOG off a Hide member about two years ago, and the tritium is getting pretty weak. I'd really like to send it back to get it replaced, taking advantage of the lifetime warranty. That said, I'm a bit nervous that I may have purchased a bring-back from somebody's...

    Rifle Scopes IOR 3-18 gen4 VS SS 5-20

    Hi all - if you're tired of the endless this vs. that threads, I apologize in advance. I still consider myself a newb in the world of long range shooting, as I've only been shooting past 200 yards for about a year now. I don't have access to a lot of scopes, so I have to rely on the wisdom...

    Cutting down a chrome lined barrel

    Does anybody have any thoughts on cutting back a chrome lined barrel? Would accuracy be adversely affected? I'm specifically referring to the effect on te lining, not the effect of the shorter barrel. Thanks!

    New Barrel for Savage

    Hi All, A friend of mine recently redid his 10/22 with a Lilja barrel. Now he's getting better groups than me. We both shot each other's rifles, and we both did better with his rebarrelled 10/22. So, I need to upgrade. Any thoughts on a good barrel for a Savage MKII with a Boyds tacticool...

    Rifle Scopes Capped or Exposed

    So, I've been spending some time researching, looking for a new optic for my 16" AR15. Primary use will be range, and the occasional coyote trip (MN, where you don't get alot of shots over 150 yards), and let's not forget the obligitory SHTF use . . . So, I've settled upon a SWFA SS 1-4X with...

    M4 - quiet(er) without a can . . ?

    I'm in thew process of building an MP5 (semi-SBR on an SW receiver), but I'm questioning the build. I'm considering abandoning it in favor of a 223 SBR instead. In my opinion, the 223 offers a great deal of advantages, such as range, barrier penetration, and general accuracy. I also have a...
