Guys, I was directed back to this thread from 24hourcampfire due to a thread I started this morning in which I told the guys there that I thought the eyepiece was for focusing the reticle. Now I'm a f__king idiot cuz I don't know how to focus a scope, so how can I say anything about any scope...

I concur with Justin, I'd call Larry at Burris, 1-888-228-7747 and explain to him what you got, if I know Larry, he'll fix you right up, Jay

Re: 7mm-08 and I don\'t reload e-mail sent, and this cartridge isn't any harder to reload than anything else, just have to watch for the OAL, most magazines are about 2.830" long, so, some bullets need to be seated under than that length, unless your feeding them one at a time, the 150Bal.tips...

Re: 7mm-08 and I don\'t reload Ker, I'm a big fan of the 708 and the Rem. S/S I've got is very accurate, if you want a Varmint weight rifle, I'd look into the Sako 75 Varmint/laminated/stainless, judging by the MSRP, it may run you about 1200 bucks, but should be well worth the money, if your...

Do any of you guys and gals have any really good accuracy results with 30-06 165 C/Ls @100yds.? You think one could get a .129" group for 5 shots out of a Model 700 S/S firing 1 shell every min.? A guy I know is passing around a group like this, claiming all of the above, rifle is equipped with...

trader, From what I've heard, windex is harmful to most coatings, like I've said in other posts, burris says to use acetone, pharmacutical grade, do not use fingernail polish remover, pure acetone, I use eye glass cleaner, myself, I'll use acetone if I've got some stubborn crap on the lenses, Jay

Larry told me they should be shipping them today, this was 3 days ago when he told me that, so I'm thinking Midway, Natchez and such should be getting them by next week. Which model are you interested in? I like the 3x-10x-40mm, myself, that's all the scope you need for "normal" range hunting...

Chris, The best thing you can do is go to a gun shop and compare some of the top-end scopes from Leupold, Burris, Nikon, Weaver, Zeiss, Bushnell, Swarovski, I've done enough comparing in the last month or so to last a lifetime for some, I've noted a few things, Zeiss and Swarovski are no...

Daryl, Look into the Burris 6x-24x-50mm Black Diamond, 30mm tube, Side focus with Ballistic Mil-dot or fine plex, $699 at Midway for the Mil-dot, outstanding optics that includes great clarity/resolution, or try the Burris 6x-24x-44mm Signature Select, 1" tube, same outstanding optics but has...

What do you guys feel is the Min. ER needed in your scopes for the 338 and other such hard kickers? Thanks, Jay [ 03-04-2004: Message edited by: Jay Gorski ]

7Ultra, Your talking about 1500-2500 dollars, right? If that's the case, I'd get a GA Precision "ROCK" rifle, Chris Matthews from the forum builds them and they are a nice piece. Jay

Duane Corbin shooting range, HWY N west out of Rib Mtn. to Hwy K in between Rib Mtn. and Mosinee, has a 300yd range, they do have a 600 yd range, but noone knows when you can use that thing, have to ask Tom when you get there, they open up in the last Sat. in April, 24th I believe. Jay

Jon, I've got HS stocks on most of my rifles, including a HS Sporter stock on my 700S/S 7mm08, it has no bedding(Devcon, Marine Tex) done to it, and from a cold barrel, it'll put shot after shot pretty much in the same hole, a McMillan stock won't do any better, when you get a Mac stock, they...

Pdog, Can you remind us what the problem was with your 6x-24x again? I got 2 of them with no problems, and just wondering if they're going to explode one of these days. Jay

Sako, Well, the Nikon Monarch gold model(30mm) did get the "Editor's choice" last year in Outdoor life's Gear test 2003, though the Black Diamond did do better in the Resolution category, getting an Excellent, while the Nikon got VG, I've looked through the "Gold" model 7 months ago, though it...
