    Interesting Rare Find- What Do You Think?

    Re: Interesting Rare Find- What Do You Think? I read this post and near its end realized that this 1950 M70 wasn't found any more than it was lost. No, this gem searched far and wide for a retirement from a life of undignified anonymity, inactivity, and downright pamper. Upon finding a...

    Rifle Scopes Premier Reticles Customer Service

    Re: Premier Reticles Customer Service I bought a 5-25x56 GenII MilDot from the original owner off this site. The deal was superb; I commend the person I bought it from--who telephoned purposely to inform me that there was a tiny speck at 25x... It was tiny. Since I haven't the platform to...

    Rifle Scopes Premier Reticle Scopes, Good or Bad

    Re: Premier Reticle Scopes, Good or Bad I sincerely sympathize with you; buying a good scope for long range shooting is frustrating enough without having so many choices, experts, and wannabes masquerading as such. I'm at the point where <span style="font-style: italic">I've reached a...

    Rifle Scopes Sent back my IOR yesterday(upgrade advice needed)

    Re: Sent back my IOR yesterday.... Hey Dude--get the new one--fixing the old fart ain't smart. I had an epiphany: Pimp out your girlfriend (and maybe her sister) and if she (and her sister) is really hot you may be able to move up to a March or Hensholdt! However, if we see you running...

    Edge Chamber Length?

    I'm building an Edge on a M70 action. It's soon to be barreled and chambered so now's the time to address this conundrum: Some of the hand loads, admittedly from individuals as applied towards their specific rifles, show COALs up to 4.00. These shooters are no -doubt purposely loading to these...

    inletting for winchester mod 70

    Re: inletting for winchester mod 70 Rhys got it right. But you can improve by using carbon fiber/graphite/boron cloth where you know you're not likely to remove material when in-letting for the M70. Even if you do you can still do it; it'll just be harder on you and tools. Makes a real...

    Rifle Scopes Experience with IOR 4-28X56 Tactical 40mm?

    This would be mounted on a 338 Edge (15+#) and used between 400 and 1600 yards. My concern focuses on prior failures--in other IORs--from heavier (300 mag and up) calibers with brakes. Did IOR meet and beat this challenge to their otherwise sterling reputation? And, as this would be my first...
