    caberslash liked post by Pommy On thread : 22LR scope with reticle/dials
    My Hawke works well. It's the 3-9 one. Turrets are capped and underneath it isn't numbered, so dialling it is risky as it'd be easy to lose track. Illuminated reticle for low light is handy - it...

    Any No4 bolt will fit but it will need to be checked for headspace before using. This is a classic case of why you never separate bolts from rifles!

    I have some excellent examples of .303 rifles in my collection including two pristine Parker Hale standard sporters (No1 and No4). Sadly I cannot focus on front sights anymore, and I have absolutely...

    Same for a hunting scope. 5 mRad (20moa) is plenty for even long shots. For target shooting with heavy undervelocity bullets, the more usable elevation the better. Maybe imperial tubes are last...

    Greetings Charlie Horse, Whatever the load is is FAR too hot. The ejector hole marks mean that the elastic limit of the brass has been exceeded and the brass is flowing back into the ejector hole....

    It's not but other than being lightweight they are pretty lack luster. SFP only, narrow FOV, 6mil per rev turrets. Compared to the latest offerings by the likes of Athlon they look like a 15 year...
