Pulled the trigger on the Tract Toric bdc 3-15x42mm. Thank you

I have a Remington 700 that I used the Burris rings and offset inserts for. The screw mount holes must have been drilled wrong from the factory and I didn’t want to deal with shipping it back, etc. plus I bought it used. And yes, one set of offset inserts are mounted sideways as it was the only...

The Tract Tekoa 4-16x44 is on sale, does anyone have experience with this model? Thank you

I’m leaning toward the Zeiss V4 4.5-14x44mm but I am intrigued by the Tract Toric 3-15x42mm but I’ve never heard of them. Thank you

Hi all, What would you recommend in a one inch rifle scope for under $1,000 with a top end magnification in the 12x-16x range? I’m trying to get the most magnification for a reasonable weight, that holds zero, non-oversized ocular housing for bolt clearance and has clear optics. I only have real...

Hi all, I picked up a used but newer Portugal version of the Winchester Model Extreme Weather and it has one of the newer Bell and Carlson stocks with the aluminum bedding blocks. The bedding around the recoil lug seems fine but my concern is the void that exists between the top of the aluminum...

Got it, seems straight forward. Thanks

Hi all, I need to remove the trigger assembly off a new model 70 with the MOA trigger. I’ve looked online but only found the older style. I want to have the barrel threaded and the company doing it prefers that just the barreled action and receiver be shipped. If someone could walk me through...

I can certainly agree with Old Rooster, the older I get the less I like recoil. Since fiberglass is typically heavier than carbon fiber it would have less recoil just from the weight difference. If both the fiberglass and carbon fiber weighed the same, recoil should be the same but most...

So, carbon fiber; stronger, lighter, more expensive and fiberglass; not as strong as carbon fiber, heavier than carbon fiber, cheaper than carbon fiber, both better than wood or plastic factory stocks. And comfishermen added that carbon fiber, essentially, warms faster to the touch. I was...

I’m not a fan of the 260 Remington. Initial wrong twist, poor accuracy when it was first brought out. There are better 6.5s out there. I settled on 223 Remington as my distance coyote caliber. I wouldn’t expect the 260 Remington to expand at all. Just my .02

1. Remington Model 7, 223 all camo replaced with Diamondback DB-15; easier platform for predator light attachment 2. Remington 700 sps, 300 blackout replaced with Wilson Combat Ar in 300 blackout; also easier platform for predator device attachments (also subsonic possible) 3. Ruger American...

Hi all, Oregon Mountain Rifles have a new rifle stock this year and I would like some first hand impressions. They are supposed to have samples at the Shot Show this week in Las Vegas. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I’ve looked online but I have not been able to find a spec. for the torque of the screw that holds the trigger assembly to the action. I have a Sako 75 Finnlight that I am considering having the barrel threaded for a muzzle device. The company I plan on sending it to, Silencer Central...

Thank you for all the replies, initially I would have been between the altitude and the alpine hunter until the issue of recoil management was posted. The GRS is not quite what I had in mind. The Raven is interesting but about $934 US. The MCS-EH1 is a possibility but I am worried the wrist may...
