    Vortex OPMOD Strike Eagle, blurry at 8X?

    Anyone else have one of these that is foggy/blurry at 7-8x? At 1-6x its just as clear as you would expect from a vortex product. Is this normal or should I send it back to vortex. I bought it second hand. Thanks

    Nickel finish/coating

    I have a stainless action and need to swap barrels but want the finish to match. Anyone know of a company or smith that does this type of finish work on barrels? Looking to match the flat nickel look pictured here from the buy/sell forum. Recommendations appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I have an older Remington 700, chambered in 7mm Mag. I plan on building a long range rig out of it. I dont care for the round and want to change it over to something else. I don't want to modify the bolt face, and ammo should be able to fit into a standard AICS magazine. I was sold on the...

    Flattened primers, really that big of a deal?

    So I have read that flattened primers are a sign of over pressure. I went back and looked at some of my previously fired factory brass and found that more often than not they also had flattened primers. So if factory loads are doing this in my rifle, should I still be trying to work down my...
