    Tract Toric 2-10x42

    Well I found a scope to my liking finally. At least at this point in my getting familiar with it I am liking it very much. Really the only con that I can come up with for me is the size/ weight being slightly over what I wanted for this Tikka superlite that I have it on. However once it was...

    Did a little Leupold CDS test

    I conducted a little informal tracking test of one of my Leupolds, a VX3 4.5-14x40 with CDS to get a better idea of the reliability of the dial to return to zero as well as dialing up for distant targets. I read a lot of forums and what not where folks are bagging on this system. I personally...

    Maven RS.2 riflescope ?

    I posted in rifle country about this scope and no one has commented? Does anyone have experience with this scope? Looking for opinions on it. Seems like a great match up for a light weight Mtn rifle. https://shop.mavenbuilt.com/collections/stock-optics/products/rs-2

    New scope for my Tikka t3x superlight- Maven RS.2?

    I'm looking for some opinions on the Maven RS.2 rifle scope. I'm leaning heavily towards giving this one a try. I am also considering the Leupold VX3i in a 2.5-8x36 , I have one on my coyote hunting rifle and really like it. These are really the only two options that I like at this point so...

    I posted a Question over on Weatherby Nation, but there is very little discussion going on there. I am wondering if someone has the time to fill me in on the Mk V's since the days of Made in Germany till current production. Specifically, what are the best years to look for? Also, what years did...

    212 ELD-X load data for 300 Weatherby?

    My son just picked up a Weatherby Vanguard and some of these bullets to try out. Has anybody tried these out in a 300 Weatherby yet. I have H4831 on hand and would like to start there if anyone has info. I have searched the net and I'm coming up short, the best I can find is Nosler's 210 load...

    Need some input on a new rifle

    I have been essentially a one rifle man for my whole life when it comes to my deer and elk hunting. Well two if you count my muzzle loader. I purchased a Rem 700 ADL in .270 win from my uncle when I was 16 years old. He won it in a big buck contest at work, but he shoots a 30-06 so it sat for...

    Single digit ES,

    I have been working on this load development for a while now. I ran a ladder test and decided to try 47.3 grains, the flat spot you see in the graph. I loaded two sets of 5 rounds at this charge, one at a.010" longer oal than the first. I was amazed when I looked at the numbers on the chrono...

    Help me identify this 300 Weatherby

    I just found this rifle at a gun store 2 hours up the road, and it's not one I've seen on the website before. I'm guessing it is old stock, they pulled it out of their storage room in the back when I went in asking if they had any Weatherby sporter' s with wood. When the guy brought this out and...

    RCBS case tumbler motor is going belly up!

    My tumbler has been giving me fits lately, it starts up but seems to run at about half speed. It's slow enough that it won't actually vibrate enough to turn over the media. Then if I let it try for long enough and use my Fonzie tricks I can get it going but not at full speed like it used to...

    My LHR Redemption experience

    Sweet Redemption [/URL][/IMG] I have never felt the need to write a review of any product that I’ve ever used before , that is until I found my new Redemption from LHR Sporting Arms. When I decided to buy a new muzzle loader this year I agonized over the decision for months. I have a...

    I want an 8mm 'cause grandpa had one.

    So I am thinking I want to get a milsurp type rifle and I am interested in an 8mm Mauser. My Grand dad used one that he brought back from the war, to hunt mule deer with. The reason I want one is for an Elk hunt that I may some day draw a tag for, 15 years and counting that I have been...

    This is weird, but I think I'm liking Ruger's M77 Hawkeye.

    So I have always disliked Ruger's Model 77 for some reason that I'm not really sure why. I used to think they were kind of ugly and bulky and just generally boring to look at. I have always felt like they have a great scope mounting system, compared to having separate bases and rings. Lately...

    300 RCM for Mule Deer/ Elk rifle ?

    So I am trying to justify in my mind, why I want a Ruger Compact Magnum to be my "go to" muley and elk rifle. If someone can shoot holes in my argument for this please do. #1 I hunt in a variety of country here in Utah that ranges from thick timber to wide open desert. Sometimes the...

    How do you neck size for .204 Ruger???

    So I want to try only neck sizing to save brass life and hopefully improve accuracy. But the question is how? I have found that I can't deprime my 204 brass with out using my full length sizing die, because my lyman universal depriming die won't do 20 cal. and I can't find one that does. So how...
