    Leupold Firedot

    I was going to say I had two of 4.5-15 x 44 with the fire dot, and love them but these guys make me feel like a rookie, and yes PM Smalts you will not be disappointed.

    Cartridge Bullet Change of Heart

    Fist let me say "forgive me Lord for I have sinned", I AM NOT A RELOADER. That said I do, and have enjoyed shooting for years. The problem was money, or a lack there of. I have been able to hunt though since the eighties and loved shooting the Hornady line of cartridges since they came out in...

    Leupold VX-3i or VX-5HD, which one?

    I have two VX5HD 3-15X44 with the fire dot, if your budget permits go with the vx5 all day long. You will not regret it, and I am someone who used to work for a living and clearly remember the first time I could afford a LEUPOLD.

    Scope movment

    On top of that after having a loose scope/base years ago I believe in blue loctite. Some my disagree thts fine, but as someone said when I'm through I know its right and if not I'm to blame. You will not regret getting that torque wrench, just adds to the confidence level.

    Just be careful about their "in stock: items. I think sometimes they mean in stock as soon as they get them, maybe just my experience.

    Tikka help

    I have the tx3 in 6.5cm and bought the B&C stock and new bottom metal. Yes it was free floated. I like the embedded metal, had todo just a little sanding/Dremel work but love it. Shoots much gooder now. You will like it.

    HOWA questions here

    I like the Howa, but the pdf catalog a pain to navigate. Is there any chance y’all are going to create a website where a person could more easily jump between the style and model that Howa makes.

    Eldx issues

    You are absolutely correct sir, Eld-x ant the sst are hunting bullets. The Eldx really preforms beyond 400 yards. I have the same issues with it at short yardage as you mentioned so I am switching. The SST is a great bullet, I have used it for years in my 25-06 with excellent results. I think...

    Used 25-06 help

    I have the BDL in a .243 and 25-06 from the mid 80's and early 90's both drive nails. When you find one you will not be disappointed. The funny thing is I keep hearing how the 25-06 is on the way out thanks to the 6.5 craze. I also have a 6.5 cm in a Tikka T3X but i still love my 25 and cannot...
