    Zeiss

    Bought a Sako 243 a coulpe of days ago on GB. Rifle looks rough (good) but it has a Zeiss Diavari V 3x9x42 scope thats supposed to be in VG condition. I am having trouble finding a value on the scope. I'm inclined to believe it's worth at least $500. I paid $816 plus $60 for S&H to my FFL. How...

We bore sighted the rifle and everything seemed fine til the shooting started. The rifle shoots low and to...

    .22 target rifle

    I was at the range yesterday shooting my 338. Got to talking with a fella that was shooting a Martini .22 at 100yd targets. Now, I've always kinda looked down my nose a the .22 as something for kids and not of much value. I was wrong. He asked me if I wanted to try it and it was a lot of fun...

    Scope

    I suggest the Nikon Team Primos 3x9x40 with the TDS Reticle. This is last years Monarch scope so I'm told. I like my leupolds but for $199 at SWFA you can't go wrong. Well, that is unless you want to spend a lot more money.

    Nikon

    I took the VX-11 of my 06' and put the Nikon in it's place. Hate to say it but I like it much better. Born and raised here in Oregon, I have always favored Leupold scopes. I love my VX-111 Boone and Crocket. For the money the Nikon Is a smokin deal. Ken

    Load testing question

    I'm trying to develop a load for my Remington 721 30-06. I rebuilt this rifle over the winter with a BDL stock new bluing etc. Took it to the range and got three rounds all touching one another at 25yds using 180 grain Remington factory ammo. Wow, I'm thinking this is going to be easy. At 100...

    Duracoat

    I applied a Duracoat finish to an old 03 Springfield this weekend and boy am I pleased with the results. I have never used an air brush before and it was a lot of fun. I coated the action bolt contact surfaces and the action is smoothe as silk and a little tighter. I understand some folks use...

    Pre-war model 70 story

    I may be lashed for this. About five years ago when I started foolin' around with guns again I bought this rifle and here is what happened. Guy at work that liked to gamble sold me this old model 70 for 400 bucks. At the time all I knew was that I liked it and you can't buy anything for 400...

    Kimber or Sako

    I have always kind of wanted a Kimber, but everytime I pick one up and play with it I change my mind. For the money the action seems sloppy and not smooth like I would expect. The rifle sure sholders nice though. Reminds me of my old Model 70s. I bought a used Sako a while back and am still...
