    Introduction and Tikka Zeroing Question - Zubtec

    I have a Tikka T3 lite SS in 270 and have never had or heard that happen with a Tikka. Mine puts 3 holes right next to each other. I would check out the stock and see if there are pressure points. Otherwise give the company a call and ask them about it. Good Luck.

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    I checked those out but all i saw were bases for remington 700's. I have a Savage Model 12FLV (left handed 22-250). Any suggestions on a base for a Savage or will the Remington base work for the Savage?

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    Alright i'm leanng towards he Weaver becasue of ease of use and more adjustment available. But any idea of a 20moa 1 piece base to put on a Savage Model 12FLV. It's left handed so I wold need a left handed base or one that is opened up on the bottom. What's a left handed 20moa base for a good...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    Well I have researched both scopes alot and cannot decide on either one. The only thing that is keeping me away from the Weaver is there is no parallax adjustment. The usual distance I expect to shoot is 3-400 yards. Is the parallax really not problem for this scope for a max of 5-600 yard...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    I like the features of the Weaver Scope, if it came with a sunshade it would be a done deal but it doesn't. Any idea of what kind will work or where to get one for that scope?? I heard a nikon 40mm sunshade fits them. (truth??) Does not having a parallax adjustment on that scope bother you or...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    That is true I guess it would be better to have turrets then to need them and not have them. I'm looking at the Buckmaster 6-18 and the Weaver Tactical Grand Slam 3-10. The buckmaster has a sunshade and a bit bigger scope. the Weaver doesn't have a sunshade is more compact. I like both but can...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    I would like to go with that scope but this is more of a budget rifle (for now). Its going to ride in the truck quite a bit and be used for coyotes, varmints, plinking. Alright I'm somewhat reconsidering my options. I like the Super Sniper but I think 10x is possibly too much power for those...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    So your basically saying either option will work for me since i'm using ballistic software. It's just that the mil/mil will work a bit easier for me if my ballistics are off because I can spot my miss and use the reticle to measure for my scope adjustment and dial that into the scope. Would...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    My father currently has a Super Sniper 10x42 on his AR15 (scope is mil/moa), I use my ballistic program and see what the drop is at the range, either look at the inches drop or the moa drop and dial one of those into the scope. From what I am understanding about mil/mil scopes they work...

    Explain MIL/MIL scope vs MIL/MOA scope?

    I'm about to purchase a new rifle in 22-250 and am looking at the Weaver Tactical Grand Slam scope 3-10x40 1/10 mil adj with mil reticle. I own a super sniper with mil/moa, and i don't under stand how you are supposed to use a mil/mil scope and how you should use a mil/moa scope?? right now...

    Who uses SMKs for hunting?

    I currently reload 135 grain Sierra Matchkings (HPBT) in my 270 win. They are a great round, I haven't killed anything with them yet but have taken them out to the range for testing. I compared the SMK to 130 Ballistic silvertip and they had about the same results on a SunnyD bottle filled with...

    .243 Win Coyote Loads

    Are you shooting a Tikka T3 lite? I'm looking at getting a 243 for longrange plinking and hunting game coyotes and smaller. Was wondering if you liked your tikka in 243? I have one in 270.

    22-250 for goats

    My uncle every once and a while uses his 22-250 for goats in wyoming. he always has it in his truck for coyotes and he told me when he sees a nice antelope or just feels like it he uses it. It will drop them as long as your not using a v-max or a "exploding" round. I was looking at getting...

    Alright I am looking at LEFT HANDED savage rifles, 223 and 22-250. Savage 223 twist is 1 in 9, 22-250 twist is 1 in 12 Which of these cartridges would you get given these twist rates? What's the heaviest bullets you can run through them? The rifles I am looking at are the Savage Model...

    First and Second Focal plane question!

    I have been looking at getting a new scope for a longrange rifle. I'm confused about the first and second focal plane thing. I understand that the reticle changes on one when you change magnification. My major question is if the scope has repeatable turrets which of these scopes will keep the...
