    Leupold VX-R patrol 3x9x40 observations

    I bought this scope a few days ago and like it. The optics are very clear and clicks are positive and audible. One thing about the turrets, when you reset them to zero, put two pieces of folded paper under each side of the turret when you screw it tight otherwise it can get off center and bind...

    AR 15 build. Help me choose

    So I've already got the lower and upper receivers for my AR build but I can't for the life of me decide on a barrel. It's going to be a long range varmint/target AR and I know I want a 18" or 20" barrel. What I can't decide on is what chamber I want. I've narrowed it down to two options...

    Green Win. Large rifle primers

    I've got alot of Winchester large rifle primers that insides are turning green. I store them in a .50 cal box that has a rubber gasket on it to keep out moister. I'm wondering if the primers have soaked up moister and that's what is turning them green or is this normal. So far the ones that...

    Will removing rifle stock change zero?

    Hello, I recently removed the stock on my Savage 12 in .22-250 to check out how much material i have to remove to glass bed it. Now I'm concerned that it may have changed the zero but I'm not sure. I would say no because the zero has to do with the alignment of the bore and the scope reticle...

    Ballistics programs dont match actual traj.

    I have used several ballistics programs to calculate the trajectory of my 60 gr. V-max bullets loaded with varget @ 3300 FPS and when i shoot the bullets on paper its not even close to the ballistics that the programs spit out. With a 200 yard zero they fall 2.5 inches @ 300 yards but all the...

    Nikon Buckmaster w/BDC

    Can anyone tell me what i can expect with the BDC reticle? I just bought a Nikon Buckmaster 6x18x40 SF BDC off of ebay for $270 new in box. i figured if the BDC reticle didn't work for my .22-250, because it shoots too fast, i would still be able to use the dials to adjust the elevation. Does...

    Ken Farrel Base Opinions

    What do you guys think about Ken Farrel Bases? I just bought one for my Savage 12FV in .22-250. I mounted Burris xtreme tactical low rings on top of it. So far it shoots outstanding. I was getting groups the size of dimes at 200 yards and about 1 inch at 300 yards.
