    Barrel Replacement - Remage question

    I'm on the low end of the hobbyist range and have put new barrels on a bunch of Savage actions. It can become an addiction quickly, at least for some of us. :) You can get barrels in a wide range of different calibers, twist rates, and contours. Send in some dummy rounds and have it cut for your...

    Europtics? - PA

    Purchased some optics from them over the years. Zero complaints, great company. Looks like I need to stop by and visit the showroom.

    For those who NEVER clean their bore, or almost never

    Teslong bore scope???

    Got one last summer, happy with it so far. I'm sure there are scopes with better image quality but this one works well for my needs. Performance is actually pretty impressive for the price.

    Opinion of Meopta optics...

    I have four MeoPro scopes on my hunting rifles, among Swarowski, Leupold, Sightron etc. The MeoPro scopes are pretty impressive, especially for the price - very clear, good contrast, good low light performance. I love that they publish % light transmission.
