    Trijicon Tenmile 3-18 vs 6-24

    That’s good to know. I think I will go with the 6-24 since I get more magnification, more elevation travel, and less money. I did get info on the reticle thickness if someone cares. NF MOAR 0.1 MOA Tenmile HX 6-24 0.175 moa vertical, 0.125 horizontal Leupold Windplex 0.2 moa

    Trijicon Tenmile 3-18 vs 6-24

    Trying to figure out why the 3-18 is approximately $500 more expensive. I know the 3-18 has a full illuminated reticle but is that why? The 6-24 has more elevation travel and obviously more magnification. 3-18 is ffp only but if I had my preference I would go SFP anyway. The only other...

    I bedded my action. Made no difference in accuracy. Granted this was my first bedding job but as far as I can tell everything turned out fine. Gun shot about 1 MOA before and 1 MOA after. I'm shooting factory ammo.

    Trijicon Tenmile 3-18x44mm Field Eval Q&A

    Can anyone compare the MOA crosshair thickness of the 5-25 or 6-24 with a Nightforce MOAR? I’m getting older and have a harder time with thinner crosshairs. The MOAR is perfect, MOAR-T is too fine and I lose it on paper targets. I want to buy a 6-24.

    Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

    I did contact High Desert. He had no idea what I was talking about and insisted there was something seriously wrong with my gun. He suggested I immediately take my gun to a gunsmith and get it checked out. He said there is no way new bottom metal could cause this even after I explain how...

    Awesome. Thank you. I will check that. Part of me is wondering why I’m trying so hard to make this work. Doesn’t sound like the gun is any more accurate but I like the idea of being able to torque down to 55/60lbs and helping ensure nothing moves. Plus I hate plastic parts.

    Trijicon Tenmile 3-18x44mm Field Eval Q&A

    You could be right. That’s the downside to smaller amounts of elevation with a scope. Keep us posted with what you find. I’ve got a Kelbly with a 20MOA integrated rail and I’m considering a Trijicon. With an integrated rail I’d be screwed if I was in your position. At least you can change out...

    That would make sense why it only happens when I torque it down more, causes the screw to protrude more. I will try some of the shims to see if it helps. I’m in the process of bedding the action and once I’m done I’ll report back. Thanks for the tip!

    Anyone have issues with your trigger after installing a new bottom metal? Installed a High Desert and if I torque over 45lbs the trigger fires when I close the bolt? Very strange. Only thing I can think of is torquing too much is somehow stressing the action and trigger. I’ve run the OEM...

    Show me your Cerakoted rifles

    I’m just beginning the process of having a hunting rifle built for my 12yr son. Plan is to use @Unknown Munitions for the build. He killed his first deer this year in Montana and I told him if he likes hunting, wants to keep doing it, and puts in some of the money he earned over the summer, I...

    Need an action

    Bought a Nanook. It literally checked every box and Preferred Barrel Blanks had a left hand long action magnum in stock. Nobody had lefties in stock on any action (although I’m not in a big hurry). Next step is to decide on barrel, CF vs spiral flute. I do not want a pencil barrel and it needs...

    Need an action

    I know this topic has been discussed repeatedly on threads but none that address the specific needs I have. I want to build a lighter weight 7prc hunting rifle. These are some of the requirements I have and hopefully people will have some options I haven’t thought of. 1) Want to be less than...
