    Gunsmithing A REALLY light tactical stock?

    Re: A REALLY light tactical stock? The deal is done! I`ve ordered one from the pse firm on Ireland and hopefully it will be here within three weeks. Should land just shy of 2 pounds. Life would be pretty boring if you had all your rifles in order, I need at least one project to fiddle around...

    Gunsmithing Pictures, olive drab.

    I`m in the process of painting one of my rifles and have decided for the color called "olive drab" for the action and barrel but it would be great if you could post some pictures or links to pages that have good ones so that I`ve something to copy. I`m not sure about the color of the stock yet...

    Gunsmithing A REALLY light tactical stock?

    Re: A REALLY light tactical stock? The rifle in question is chambered for the 308 Norma Magnum but it`s equipped with a EGW muzzle brake and that takes it down to something like a 308 win. So recoil won`t be a problem. Plus the barrel is pretty hefty so it will never be UL rifle, I would just...

    Gunsmithing A REALLY light tactical stock?

    Re: A REALLY light tactical stock? Once and for all, you guys are the best! I`ve sent e-mails to Manners, McMillan and Lone Wolf. But judgeing from what you`ve written here I`ll start my discussion with Manners. HS Precision said that it would weigh around 2 1/2 pounds without cheekpiece. The...

    Gunsmithing A REALLY light tactical stock?

    I`m looking for a tactical style stock for my Rem 700 LA but due to a very bad back I can`t go the normal route. What I would like is something looking like the A5, for example, but as light as possible. Do you know of someone who makes these kind of stocks? I guess it would have to be something...

    Rifle Scopes NF NXS vs BR?

    Re: NF NXS vs BR? Short update. I`ve found a 5,5-22,5 NSX for a very! good price but there is one major minus and that`s the reticle. I think it`s called CF-3. An ultra thin cross with an even smaller dot. Pretty useless for my needs but how about installing my favourite, the NP2-DD? I love...

    Rifle Scopes NF NXS vs BR?

    Re: NF NXS vs BR? Thanks for helping me out. I have an adjustable cheek rest on this rifle so I think the cheek contact will be fine. Regarding the magnification for hunting, I live in Sweden and the way we hunt is perhaps a bit different from the way you guys are used to? The range is...

    Rifle Scopes NF NXS vs BR?

    I know the difference on paper between these two but what differs between them in real life? Is there a big difference when it comes to light transmission?? I`m looking for something that will work both for LR paper punching and for still hunting in really poor light. If you have any other...

    Rifle Scopes How to mount a Yukon Tactical?

    I`ve a Rem 700 LA with a Picatinny rail mounted. I just recently bought a Yukon Tactical NV scope, 2x50. But there is one major obstacle and that`s that I can`t find a good, low mount for it. I also want the mount to be the kind you can take off and put back on without having to rezero the gun...
