Zeiss Conquest on a Savage .338 Lapua with the 20 MOA rail- looking at the TPS rings should a guy run two sets to help support that 1" tube?

Decided to roll with the Conquest on my new Savage 110 .338 Lapua. What 1" rings should a person look at for a picatinny rail? Are the Burris Xtreme rings any count? What about the new Weaver tactical 6 hole rings? I was looking for something that would cover some real estate on the scope tube...

I won a new Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20 power with the rapid Z 1000 reticle in a raffle. I just happen to need a scope for my new .338 Lapua. I know this scope is pretty limited in adjustment range, and the reticle is more in tune with 308 ballistics. Should I give it a shot, or save the time and...

My 110 FCP HS Precision is supposed to arrive next week. Does anyone have any concerns with action strength when it comes to throwing hot loads at it?

Dont know what you're doing with it. If a heavy rifle doesnt bother you, look at the Tubb 4 way adjustable butt plate from Superior Shooting Systems for the A2 stocks. It gives you 3" LOP, 3" up and down, and you can cant the butt to fit you better. I am 6'8" and put it on my Armalite prarie dog...

Have an opportunity to help a buddy put a gun together, but his needs and wants pull him in different directions for caliber. I suggested that we use a savage action for a switch barrel setup in .300 WM and ??? He wants the primary cartridge to be a bit cheaper and easier on the shoulder. I...

Finally gathered up some cash to put a scope on my heavy barrel AR prarie dog rig. Looking to stay around $500, which brings me to the VX II 6-18X40 with the target knobs, or the Nikon Monarch 5-20X44. I plan to dial targets in, and the 1/4 clicks on the Leupold sound better to me than the 1/8...

Can anyone direct me to a source for some .338-.378 Brass. I just need a few empties to load for a friend. He is itching to light off a few, and I can fireform and neck size with some other dies. Any thoughts? Thanks

Looking for .338-.378 KT brass. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Armalite M15- 24" bull barrel for paper and prarie dogs. I'm considering the Cabelas tactical scope with the interchangeable turrets. Anybody know anything about these? -Thanks gun)

I guess I should have worded that a little differently. Are there any strength differences between Stainless and CM that would make one better than the other?

I've decided to leave my savage alone, and buy a new rifle to play with. looking at a rem 700 sps in .300 RUM with the intentions of turning it into an edge over the next year or so. Is a person better off with a stainless donor gun, or CM? If you have a preference, please explain. Is that...

Whay is the best way to get brass for such a thing? Can you modify the factory weatherby cases, or would I need to start with fresh .378 cases? How are these things for accuracy? I understand that the velocity may be impressive, but will they go where you want them to? I'm guessing that a 30+...

Does anyone play with the .338-.378 Keith-Thompson? Came across a rifle chambered for it, and I'm trying to learn a bit about it- good, bad or otherwise- before I invest much time or money. Also looking for dies to reload for it. -Thanks

Have a 110 in 30-06. Looking to strip it and rebarrel for something a little more fun. I know they make the replacement bolt faces to turn this into an Ultra Mag, but are there any action strength concerns out there that I ought to know about? Thanks
