    Mmmmm to just clear up the Vari-X versus the VX and the VX-I versus the VX-1. Chart doesn't show the very latest series though. Seen the older scopes misrepresented on the likes or Tardme. 145842

    If it's under 1000 and the company you purchase off is not registered with our IRD, Customs will not collect gst. Companies that do greater than 60k business into NZ annually have been hounded to...

    Agreed. LH split locking lug for ejector arm to pass thru (unless Rem 700 is really oddball). OP needs to look at length of rail screws. Fix screw/screws and then maybe a quiet dressing with a...

    What sort of velocities did you get? Are all the holes completely round? Maybe try a different projectile. What sort of groups were you getting with factory ammo?
