    Action for shouldered switch barrels

    Yep, missing Cadex Kraken. Although not actually a prefit. Actually a multi-cal and you order barrels (Bartlin 5R) from Cadex as pur unit s/n.

    0 vs 20 MOA Scope Rail

    Than go with 20 moa rail and std scope mount. Simple physics and math. Scope total moa /2, minus 10% = total rail and mount moa.

    0 vs 20 MOA Scope Rail

    Always Go with a 20 moa rail. Then add on a NEAR Alphamount 20 moa, 1 piece scope mount. (http://trg42.com/alphamounts/) It always returns to zero if you remove scope fo any reason. Also, with total of 40 moa, gives a person full range of scope elevation

    Arken optic

    Near Alphamounts are Cdn made in Alberta. I,personally have 6 of them for my rifle glass. Here is a pic I caught off a video. E Cortina 's 2 rifles with Alphamounts.

    Arken optic

    We have 2 Arken EP5's. On 22LR. Excellent quality for the price. Mount it on a NEAR Alphamount with 20 MOA on a 20 MOA rail. 2/3 the price of a Spur. If it is good enough for T Cortina, should work for you. Did this today after mounting the above on a T1x. (Best I have ever done)

    Angled or straight spotter?

    I personally like the angled spot scope eye piece. It is comfortable on a tripod to my left, rifle on bench to right, again same position sitting directly on bench for indoor bench shooting or on short pod in prone position. Also find easier to bend neck using tripods standing. Personal...

    Burris veracity

    I had Burris Veracity. Really liked it over the Vortex. Warranty is excellent. I inadvertently dropped one of the scope capes on the floor. My pup chewed it up before I realized 😳 I had dropped it. So I took a picture of the cap, sent an EMail to Burris and they honored the Warranty and...

    Tikka short track

    Might be that one magazine has a binder plate and the other doesn't The binder plate holds the cartridges back from the front of the magazines and guides them past the bottom of the feed ramp. The maximum cartridge overall length (COAL) that will fit in this magazine is 2.870". The magazines...

    Tikka short track

    Both bullets are OAL of 2.80. I may be wrong and I am never correct, but I do believe a 6.5 cm is a necked down 308 case.

    Cheek Risers

    Bought a Boyd's At-1 atock. Didn't like it as the cheek riser was set at fixed intervals. Got a MDT xrs stock with variable hight adjustment for my Tikka. Did get a Mathews Fab riser for my CZ 22LR. Works really good.

    Scope Height Help, Browning X-Bolt.

    44 mm is 1.72 inches decide by 2 = .865. So 0.90 rings would clear the action. And give room for the scope bell should the barrel be tapered from the action.. Simple math....

    Need a scope with higher power range

    I have had a Burr Veracity and own 2 Burris XTR 2s. For my eyes, I liked them. And have shot out to 1,000 yards with the XTR 2s with no problem. Stayed with the XTR 2s as they are I'm MRAD and 34 mm tumes vs the Veracity is MOA and 30 mm tunes. Personally not a fan of Vortex, although I...
