Well the questions aint for nothing. I ordered a egw rail and a set of burris rings. I also put back some money for a swfa ss scope already. Im going to do my muzzleloader first bc that season will come b4 rifle where im at. I also got egw rails and burris rings ready to order for the 30-06. Ill...

with the 20 moa base being a picitanny rail is that a pretty soild set up? There is no movement between the scope rings and the picitanny base? To me picitanny is for quick disconnect of attachment but I dont know if it is a solid set up for a long range rifle where percision counts. Am I right...

i havnt done a bed job yet but when I get some free time soob i will. I also have to fill the front of the stock bc the ruger americans stocks are not solid. I watched a video on it and the guy said something about the new ruger americans have a bar in them to make it solid. I could try to get...

Thats some great advice. The 20moa rail and burris zee rings with the swfa ss scope sounds awsome. That is the route im gonna go it sounds perfect. Any good 20 moa rails? Thanks Rob

i never heard of those burris zee rings. There nifty but i dont know if I trust them. I have to do some internet searching to find out more about them. seem like a good idea but what is better. Havung the rings lapped or getig burris zee rings? Rob

Everyone mounts the scope your self? Does anyone use the alignment bars and use laping compound on the rings. If you dont know what im talking about then type in How to properly mount a scope.. the video from midway is the video i watched and i never mounted a scope like that. It looked like it...

I thought it was funny for him to say simmons. He did not do any testing just his thoughts on the scope. I aint gonna listen to him. I dont even think he heard of swfa.. I called him about mounting the scope rings bc i seen a video on midway with a guy putting rings on and it impressed me. He...

well thanks guys. Im going to stick with the plan on buying the swfa ss scope. The 10x or 6x is what i was planning on getting. I thought 10x for my 30-06 and the 6x for my muzzleloader. There the ones that cost $299.99 for the rear focus. sounds like a scope ill be happy with. cant wait to get...

well seems to be perfect for what I am doing but I guess the rifle isnt? I yet to shoot it at past 300 bc the after hunting season I returned the nikon so i can buy a swfa ss scope before this hunting season. I dont reload yet but I did try out 8 boxes of ammo amd did a group test. federal power...

I called a local gun smith to see gow much it cost to have a swfa ss scope mounted on my 30-06 ruger american. I use this gun to hunt deer out to 500 yards and would like to shoot out to 1,200 yards playing around for fun NOT competition. Will the swfa ss scope work for what I wanna do? This gun...

David what do you mean change the angle you look at through thick brush? Could you explain a little more. I have to find a area and scout it more I guess. I found some poop piles but the picture you had that was some good poop. It seems that I would see more rabbits then what I been seeing...

Success!! I went out yesterday morning as the sun was rising. My dog wanted to go really bad so I took him (he is a lab).. we walked for a good hour then we jumped 1 rabbit out of some thick brush. It was so thick the rabbit had trouble running through it to escape. I was able to shoot the...

Well got back from hunting. I walked around and then stopped for about 30 seconds. When I stop I would look around for poop and I seen probably 10 piles of poop. Not like the piles of poop in Davids picture but they were little piles of rabbit poop. Probably see more poop but my focus also was...

David that looks like a good hunt. Im about to head out and try to get some rabbits. What do you do to hunt them? Walk around or run dogs? Im going to drive around tonight see if I can see any. Im still trying even got the trap out still. Thanks Rob

Lol packrat your funny. Thanks for the replys I was starting to wonder if I should give up lol. Ill ask around already but the locals seem to say "shine em!" But I obey the hunting laws bc I hate messing with the law soI dont give them any reason to mess wih me. I set out a trap i made. Its been...
