    Convince me to spend more $ on a scope

    I am in the same situation as you. I hunt in PA and our shots here on the farm we hunt are a max of 300 yards, but most as within 200. My son and I both have quite a few rifles including Tikka’s and some Christensen Mesa’s and most of them wear 3-9 FF 2’s and they have served us well over the...

    Where do you buy Sportsmatch rings online?

    How many higher end scopes do you own?

    If you add up the cost of all the NIB Burris FF2’s I have stashed away it’s well over $1k. The FF2’s have served me well over the years and work great for my style of hunting and I grabbed a bunch when Amazon marked them down last year to around $100 each. I do have one scope over $1k and...

    Tikka Factory Ammo Velocities???

    I have a 270 win Roughtech that shoots awesome with Eldx ammo, but I haven’t had a chance to chrono it yet. Just curious, but what kind of accuracy are you getting with the rest of the ammo you listed?

    Winchester XPR 350 Legend?

    My 14 year old son wants to try out a 350 Legend and thinks he wants a Winchester XPR. I have no experience with the XPR rifles, so wanted to see what peoples thoughts are that have them?

    Tikka T3X Ember?

    My bad I was thinking of the Veil for some reason.

    Tikka T3X Ember?

    They have different color stocks and the Ember is cerakoted and the Roughtech is not. Other than that everything else is identical.

    Anyone removed the foam and block from a Tikka Stock?

    Have not tried this with any of my Tikka SL’s and with only that little bit of weight savings I don’t see the point either. I’d rather have the extra ounce instead of a hollow sounding stock.

    Accuracy with a dot reticle (Trij Accu)

    Just curious, but is the duplex reticle more like the duplex reticle in a Leupold VX3 or is like a wide duplex?
