I'm on track to only have Tikka and Vortex, didnt really intend it to go that way but these two companies seem to offer what I want at this point in time.
Used to be a lot more diverse.

I'm on track to only have Tikka and Vortex, didnt really intend it to go that way but these two companies seem to offer what I want at this point in time.

Rem's followed by Tikka's, a couple of Rugers, some other bits and pieces. Scopes Vortex, Bushnell, a Nikon and Leupold ( bought in 81) still going strong.
Im really one at a time but when multiple its always being a tikka and a sako iv had 4 sakos 3 tikkas leupold most common optic scope binos rangefinders currently a tikka and a sako and 3 leupold items
I have a weird obsession with not doubling up. Don't know why but like to spread my business.
I have :
Ruger with Bushnell
Howa with Minox
Tikka with Weaver
Sauer with Leupold
Browning A5
Sig kilo3000 Binos
It annoys me that I also have leupold ventana spotter. Need to change that or the scope... 🤔
Brno for firearms.
Leupold for scopes, only the rimfires have non-loopies.

Guys I just want to observe that in my opinion there is a degree of folly attaching to the level of detail in some of these posts. Do you really want the world knowing that much about what you have?
Correct ‘Rushy’, that’s why I answered as per heading ...Quote:

You're right, especially for those with large/expensive collections. On the other hand, simply being a member of this forum has it's risks in that respect. It wouldn't take a genius to work out who has expensive toys.Quote:

As a side note. I have observed king cobra gang members are associated with the panel/automotive shop across the road from Reloaders.
Bushnell. Gotta love rainguard
If someone was that intent on digging, it wouldn’t be hard to work out what I have through previous posts and videos.Quote:

It's a bit more difficult these days to determine a car's owner unlike the old days when ya paid your ??$15 and they immed gave you the owner info including address.
Back to the thread, my stuff is more mix than match. Gun brands are Rem, Sako, BSA, Tikka, Barnard, RPA, HHE Millennium, pre-64 Win, Browning, Benelli, Walther, Brno, Winchester. Scopes varied as well- Nikons on the rimfires mainly, Leupold, Swaro and Nightforce
Just hang round a gun shop deer stalkers or pistol club etc would be an easier way to figure people out or who ever you are worried about already has you details from hanging around the confiscation events or if your on wank book most of the work is done for them
Yep, but it's still too easy to do. I had to do it for legit reasons when my bike got rear ended. Ironically the idiot was in a courtesy car from a panel beaterQuote:

The main theme in the safe is what was on special...
x2 CZ, centrefire and rimfire
Vanguard (Howa)
BSA
Norinco
A range of glass from burris, nikkon, bushnell
Federal brass seems to be the most common element.
Rifles come and go but the Nightforce and Aimpoint optics seem to stay.
Centre fire: Savage (4)
Rim fire: Marlin (4)
Scopes: Nikon/Bushnell (3=)
Suppressors: Gunworks (6)
Its ok, not bad enough to replace but I probably wouldn't get one again. It does what it is supposed too. I seem to have to zero it a lot (once a month). To be fair it rides my quad every other day so gets a hiding but so does the Bushnell and haven't zeroed that in years.Quote:
