I love my DTA too. I picked up a Gen 1 second hand; had the handguard machined off so I have a Gen 1 Covert now. I really like how compact it is; the entire thing fits inside the Pelican 1700 case with the 22" 308 barrel attached. The barrel changes are quick, and the fact that I can run one...
I'm bringing this thread back to life.
What has everyone's experience been regarding the 6XC barrel life, accuracy, brass experiences (forming from 22-250 or buying Norma brass), powder choices, and most importantly, on http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/images/smilies/shooter.gif...
Re: Stiller Tac300, Manners T3, Lilja, custom 7mm Rem Mag
Are you interested in any trades, or partial trades + cash? I'm in Vegas as well, just a couple miles down the hill from CC Shooting Range.
2.5 lbs for the Remington 700 LA
7.25 lbs for the Kreiger #17 30" barrel with brake
.25 for the recoil lug
Call it 9.5 lbs.
The #17 is one of their heaviest barrels.
Add in ~ 3lbs for a stock or chassis, 1lb for trigger, 1/2 lb for a trigger guard and magazine, 3 lbs for optic/rings...

Learn something new everyday! I have to make it up there someday soon.
Bump- TTT (to the top)!!
I have that exact gun in .260, and have smoked a ton of whitetail with it. Excellent carry gun and comes up to the shoulder quick.
I'm not aware of the anti-bind rail though...?
Bump.
That's great to hear. That is what I was looking for - real world experience with any of these scopes. I would have thought that the Z3 would have beat the VX6, but that may not be the case.
Thank you for the feedback so far. I really do appreciate it.
I have looked through the Z3, HD5, and a VX6 at Cabelas, but that's not real world...which is why I posed the question to people who may have used them in the field. I didn't see much of a difference between the three.
That...
