Sell it for a profit and put the money into a new rifle that's already lightweight. You'll end up with a better gun for the same amount of money, and I'm a M70 fan.
I've bought a couple, no issues. If you're selling, they've always been on the low end compared to what other places like Bud's offer. I'm convinced their buyer is clueless, I can't tell you how many used factory Remington 700 rifles I've seen there listed as full custom rifles.
I think that both of those S&B scopes are overkill for your situation. Any quality optic is going to provide enough light transmission for any legal shooting light. If you're having a hard time finding the reticle in those situations, then an illuminated reticle is the way to go, unless you...
Nightforce SHV 3-10x42 ALL DAY LONG. It's bit heavy at 22 oz, but it's built like a tank, it's illuminated, and you can easily dial with it. Best choice I ever made for my .308. Other choices would be the Maven 2-10, which is only 12 oz but it needs more eye relief, in my opinion. The...
I'd probably set up with what you're showing, it's almost combining MPBR with the subtensions for longer range. You can use their calculator to figure out how many MOA to dial up from the 240 yd if you're shooting longer than 500 yds. Unless you're specifically setting yourself up to shoot...
THIS. If the subtensions were even remotely usable and this thing offered at least a consistent 3.5" eye relief, even better at 4", I'd probably have ten of them with both reticles. The eye relief is the big killer for me though.
I like this reply.... BUT..... I don't know about Cabela's/Bass Pro in your area, at the one in mine, the only thing they have in the cases are Swarovski, Ziess Leupold, Vortex, the store brand, and every so often, a Burris Droptine or a few Bushnell. Though, I did see a Burris Veracity PH...
Now it's not available to anyone with any kind of US correlation unless you change a VPN and do a bunch of other IT stuff that I have no clue about. I've got version 6.9 (I think), and if you have an Iphone and upgrade your phone, it automatically deletes Strelok. It also automatically deletes...
Hawke has a 1.5-6x44, with an illuminated #4 reticle, but no hold overs. They also have a large range of other scopes with various illuminated reticles of different designs. Vanguard used to have an riflescope line, they had a 1.5-6x44, a 2-8x32, and a 1.5-7x44, all with #4 reticles with a...
The Tract scopes may be in line with what you're looking for, you can get tall turret kits for them, but the zero stop only allows just short of one full rotation. You could also just keep the cap off and use the regular turret for extra rotations. I've got a Nightforce SHV 3-10 with the...
I'd be willing to bet that it's NOT a supplier problem. Most factories can crank it out as fast as it can get paid for, Of course, there's production scheduling for specific items runs and those OEM's are producing for multiple companies as well. It's most likely a cash flow issue from the...
I handled a few Cascades at SW a couple years ago, all of them had warped stocks that contacted the barrel on the left side, which is saying something because the free float gap was generous. Nothing that sand paper couldn't fix, but I'm not a fan of any of the soft touch stock coatings, they...
I sold 3 rifles on gunbroker last month and shipped all three to FFL's via USPS. No issues. UPS and FedEx won't let an individual ship a long gun of any kind, BUT I had a rifle go back to Weatherby and they supplied the Fedex label and there were no issues with me dropping it off. Weatherby...
I think that if you've got enough spare time in your day to actually be looking into this and worrying about what a Youtuber is doing, you either need to spend more time working or doing something productive, or get out and actually do more stuff to keep you occupied. Let the authorities worry...
Take the ring apart to see how deep it broke off. You might be able to grab the stub with vice grips with the clamp removed and extract it. Then all you need is a new screw. And there's a reason the spec was 25 in lbs. If you want a stronger clamp, get different rings. You've went to all...
Have you verified that your scope won't track correctly? You're very concerned about the ability to dial elevation and windage, but does anyone really dial windage for hunting? No one that I know. As for the precision of the reticle, print out the white sheet to a size that fits on your stock...
