    I love my Leupolds but have to agree with longshot here. Leave alone what doesn't need fixed. If after you have issues sorted and are happy shooting again you decide you desire different glass,by all...

    Shouldn’t be anything wrong with a burris as far as holding zero. If it were me, I would just be getting a decent set of rings and re mounting the scope. Re-zeroing is the biggest input here,...

    What scope? The quality of the rings you are using isn’t consistent with the quality of the rifle. Sort of like putting supercats on a Mercedes. If you upgrade your rings (which would be a...

    I'm guessing the scope is moving in the rings? These days I get a latex glove and cut a finger "ring" the same width as the scope ring. I then stretch it over the scope, 1 for each mount. Then...

    You can try Loctite 609 retaining compound, drop of each inside your rings and underneath your rail, medium strength & comes off easily with a wee bit of heat from heat gun. Be careful screwing too...

    Tikka has a slightly unique rail size so your options could be limited. If you can afford it get Tikka Optilocks. Top quality rings will save you money in ammoand petrol for repeat sighting in plus...

    Ideally, you tighten them with a torque wrench if you dont have Experienced hands ( gunsmiths seem to donit by feel- amateurs by number) If you overtighten eg a litlle bit tighter every month, they...

    The kaimais is a really easy place to spook deer and stumble into them without even knowing they are there. I've often spooked a big group of them at less than a couple of meters away and never seen...
