    Zeiss or Leupold 4.5-14?

    I don't have a scope over 10X and want to move up to a scope with a little more power and an adjustable objective. I am looking for a solid repeatable turret system. The scope is going on a light rifle for now. My two considerations are the: Zeiss 4.5-14x44 A0 (1 inch) Leupold 4.5-14x40 LR...

    Zeiss Conquest turret install

    Exactly. I hear a lot about leupold conversions, but not much Zeiss. What I do here about Zeiss is that the optics are top notch for the price, and can you imagine a 3x9 like you state or a 3.5-10 with a turrets. I would think a great lighter, long range scope, although I imagine it would...

    Vortex Viper vs. Clearidge Ultra

    I'm looking for a hunting scope to be used at no more than 600 yards. I have focused on scopes with no more than 14x on the high power and 44 on the objective and keeping the cost below $800. The vortex viper 4-12x40PA and the Clearidge ultra xp5 popout as the most bang for the $$$ so I am...

    Zeiss Conquest turret install

    Has anyone had any of their Conquest scopes retrofitted with Balistic Turrets or otherwise? I read on their site that they would, and I also heard that after the retrofit Kenton knobs can be used. Thanks

    model 700 WSM magazine boxes

    I need some education... The topic is probably somewhere but I can't find it. I see that Wyatt's has a center and staggered feed, and remington has a BDL and ADL WSM box I just don't understand what is working best per application. What I mean by this is that it seems a lot of gunsmiths like...

    LR hunting Rifle standards and practices

    Kevin-- In scopes do you have some suggestions on reticles that will work in timber, shadows, and lower light situations? I've never had anything besides a duplex, and I am looking at mil-dot, TMR, or just sticking with a regular duplex setup on a Leupold 3.5-10x40 LR/T with M3 turrets. I like...

    LR hunting Rifle standards and practices

    I know what your saying on the 7mm...great BC, I would go with a 7mmWSM because I love short actions if that were the case. Thanks for the suggestion. My selection on the 270 is because for my true hunting situations I would be using a 130 grain or 150 grain bullet, mostly the 150 Hornady. The...

    LR hunting Rifle standards and practices

    That's what I'm talking about. Great to see what a light rifle can do. I have no idea of what to expect because I don't see many people posting or boasting about the accuracy of there lighter rifles. That's great...and with a regular 3-9!!! My caliber selection is going to be a 270WSM, I...
