I'm putting together a backcountry, or rather a back, back, country rig using a T/C encore with a Choate folding stock, probably in 7mm/08 or 6.5-.284 if can find someone who will make a carbon fiber barrel for the encore. If not, I was thinking of using a 15" barrel. What caliber do you...

Gosh darn it! I wish I had seen this earlier. I just bought a Nikon XL. I think it's a very good value, but for $450 I would have loved your scope. If you still have it around in a couple of months, I'll take it off your hands, but the wife might practice a little short range on me if I buy...

Anyone ever load a 65 grain v-max in 6mm Rem? I can't find any loads with Reloader 19 or 22. I'm also afraid this bullet won't be able to handle a 1 in 9 twist.

What do you guys think of New Brunton? Aren't their Epoc Bino's a decent value? I know they're not Swaro's but...What about this spotting scope?

Re: Cabela\'s Big Sky Spotting Scope? Alos, anyone know who makes these scopes for cabelas. Kind of remind me of the new Bushnell Elite scopes.

Cabela\'s Big Sky Spotting Scope? Anyone use on of these? Would you buy one, or a Nikon XL at around the same price?

I haven't been able to find any IOR spotting scopes, if they don't make them, do they have any plans to?

Thanks guys. That's why I love this site. Fassst tooo.

Are there any spotting scopes under $500 that I'm not immediately going to wish I had spent a grand on a swaro or Leica? What about Nikon or Minox? I've got a pair of Minox bino's 9.5 x 40's and while their light transmission isn't quite what I would like, their clarity is...

Thanks Pete!

Sometimes I'm getting powder coming out on both the upstroke and the downstroke. But, I'm also having trouble with powder "bouncing" out of whatever I drop it into, usually the weighing "cup." I'm using RL 19 right now. The good news is the 160 grain grandslam loads I've hand measured are...

Awesome looking wood. I'm looking for a Ruger MII stock in full length-mannlicher style, would they have one. Also, could they do a custom stock to fit a swiss K-31? I see they will have M98's soon, but what about Mannlicher's for M98's?

I just started reloading and I was wondering how you guys keep the powder from spilling when using the RCBS powder measure. Maybe my column is a little sticky or something, but I'm having a hard time. Almost faster just to fill a case and weight out out each charge.

Hey Pete, Can you explain how to tighten the screws in sequence. Never really done much work on cars. Pretty sure what you mean, but... Thanks again.

Any tricks to mounting a scope that I should be aware of?
