I purchased a Ruger Hawkeye 257 Roberts this year that had the same identical issues. People have already pointed out what's wrong. The Ruger scope rings are the absolute worst set of rings I've ever seen in my life. Never seen misalignment so bad. I think a 10 year old with a piece of metal and...
I upgraded to the NLs only because I found a ridiculous deal on them a couple of years ago at Eurooptics for demo models.
I could never tell a difference in optical quality. However, FOV difference is enormous. ELs feel like looking through a straw once you get used to the NLs. The ergonomics...
Nope. I thought maybe the Challis was a highly wind resistant fleece and no wind stopping membrane, hence the price difference. Nope. It also has a wind stopping membrane same as the Phase. No way is the price difference worth it
Yep the slaughter of gun season is one of the most depressing things ever. Going throughout archery last season, I had 5 giants on camera that were never killed all archery. After the first 3 days of rifle everyone was dead. Its very hard for even the weariest buck to survive a rifle behind...
A WILD 4 years. Before here I had a useless Criminal Justice degree for a career in Law Enforcement that as I finished up my degree I realized Id loathe life as an officer of anything. So I felt stuck and kinda hopeless as to what I was gunna make of my life.

I had the forehead rest and sent it back due to not noticing a difference with the 8s. However in regards to fit, you can get the cover over the headrest, but you cannot fully close the cover to seal how debris. If youre set on the headrest go with medium
Sorry lad, you've been had by the industry. I've mounted Talley rings, Weaver, Burris, Leupold, and a few others in my time. Which was the best? None of them. They all mounted scopes for me, friends, and family members without fail. Watch this first then respond to me.
Lapping assumes a false premise. It presumes that either your action or rings are incorrectly machined from the factory, which just isn't the case 99% of the time. I've never seen a circumstance which requires rings to be lapped. It's just an extra way someone has found that departes you from...
I hunt NE PA. Big public tracts consists of swamps or mountains. In any tract that contains swamps, go right to them. That'll cross out a huge amount of worthless land to hunt.
In mtns, focus on diversity of vegetation and terrain features. Where open hard woods meets mtn laurel, scrub oak...
