    338 edge -choate stock

    What make is the barrel and do you know who chambered it? Twist rate? Any idea if it happens to be throated for Berger vld 300s? From everything I can find, the 7/8" nut is a small shank. Can you confirm? Thanks!

    First Build (savage 110 / Stevens 200). Help!

    For a barrel I'd also recommend spending a bit more too. Take a look at the Criterion barrels Northland Shooters Supply is selling. I have heard nothing but great things about them on another savage enthusiast forum. They sound like great performers for the price. For a trigger, you might...

    Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 FFP MRAD - First impressions

    Jammer - you lucky dog! I ordered my 4-16x50 FFP MRAD 17 months, 18 days ago and it finally (FINALLY!) came today :D. Ordered mine through a really small retailer so I had to wait for the initial orders at all of the big dogs to be filled first. I second the OP's comments on the quality of...

    Where isn't an ill. ret. legal?

    I had the same concerns about ill. reticle and called the main FWP office here in Helena around the start of Deer/Elk season (since I had delusions of grandeur about receiving my Viper PST before the end of the season... but I digress). I talked to a very helpful and knowledgable lady who...

    Spotting Scope Suggestions $600-$800

    Just an FYI. Vortex has discontinued the skyline & skyline ED spotters, and Cameraland has a pretty good price on both versions right now. Have not spent much time with either (just a few times at the store) but have heard good things about the ED version.

    LEICA CRF 1600 WARRANty

    Good to hear it got resolved! I am having the same problem you were with it not ranging reliably past about 600 yds unless I use the scan mode. Let me know how the new one works. Also, how long did it take to ship it to them and get a new one back? I don't want to lose it for the whole...

    Need help spitfire or pm-4

    You may check out the Flextone Echo caller as well. It seems to be a new product on the market so not a lot of info is out there, but what info I have found generally claims that it is a lot of bang for the buck. I, like you, was looking for my first e-caller and didn't want to spend a...

    Not long range but some kind range Elk

    Was that at the range on MacDonald Pass? I might have to start shooting there instead of the Townsend range. :D

    Leica Press Release - CRF-1600

    I am having the exact same problem! 500 or 600 yds max most of the time with a single button push. Ranging the exact same target in continuous mode it will regularly go out past 1200 yds. In ideal conditions I have ranged as far as 1900 yds. Can't do anything about it now since I need it for...
