Thread: Bore Scope

Scope fitting to a target rifle has been an idea I’ve considered too GPM. I have a ‘spare’ Grunig &Elmiger (Kreiger barrel?) in .308 sitting here. I haven’t moved forward on the idea as 1) rifle is already heavy 2) it seems too nice to alter 3) I fear drilling and tapping the Grunig would kill its appeal.

Back in the mid 1980's I bought a Parker Hale 1200 target rifle and fitted a scope. Later I got Dinney rechamber it for .30-06AI. It shot very well but got nowhere near the velocities claimed by some. The idea was a longer range rifle than my .308 which it achieved just barely.
GPM.
