Pros of 16" = handier and lighter.
Cons of 16" = slightly less velocity and louder than a longer barrel.
Pros of 20"= more velocity, not as loud.

Yep, and arguably the best warranty in the business. I recently had some old cheap Burris binos replaced with a brand new modern set under warranty.
Cant fault them there.
Yea so imagine that you screwed the barrel in tight, then the headspace was too short.
You'd need to run a reamer through it to extend chamber to the correct length.
Or if headspace was too long,...
Option 5 imo.
All you really need is a more long range capable caliber in a reasonably light weight setup. A 7mm mag or 300wm would be the go id think.
Id not suggest a heavy dedicated LR rig...
Never run a bore scope down the barrel of an accurate gun lol. It'll often show "problems" that aren't really problems. Ignorance is usually bliss in this case, imo.
Yea, you'll likely need rings and bases (or a rail & rings), so that you can move the rings back and fourth on the rail/ pic bases
I think part of is that modern rifles use more stamped and cast parts (not to mention plastic), whereas almost everything on the old guns is machined. Everything just gives the aura of quality as the...
Ill be listing a Sako Finnfire 2 setup with a SUPER nice tiger striped walnut stock soon. May be of interest depending on your budget.
You can see it in this link...
No experience with that particular scope, but iv got a Military M5xi for the same price if interested

So you’re saying what if the NZ sellers info prompted them to order it overseas / a grey market?
Under Nz consumer law, you’re only responsible for things you actually sold, in NZ.
If the...
Ok so, If you purchase a product, your contract is with whoever you buy the product from (the retailer), and that would not be ultravision / the nz distributor directly.
Ultra vision would have no...
Hey Vandy iv got a Steiner M5xi (which is an upgrade from the T5) for sale if you're interested. I made a thread in the buy/sell section.
Cheers
You are correct! I screwed that one up haha :) thanks for pointing it out and getting it right!
Yep true, depends how the range has been ascertained. Gist is you gotta use the corrected distance, regardless of how you get to that number. Close range its not going to make too much difference,...
Imagine a right angle triangle like this.
You are at the bottom of the hill, and your target is at the top (or vice versa). If you range find the target without a corrected distance that accounts...
I wouldn't trust something that was zeroed at 50m. If you validate at longer distance, then OK, but I wouldn't zero at 50 then go try to shoot stuff at longer distances and just expect it to work...
Id probably have a 6.5x55
send it to Beretta and they will probably give you a new (but modern) scope
Hard to tell from this image, but those primers don't look to be what id call flat. Could just be a bad image.
If the primers aren't really flat, and velocity is within spec, then its probably...
ELDM, and send them a round that's a mm or so shorter than mag length, imo.
The TAC A1 isnt really the type of gun you would be walking around with and shooting off-hand, its more the sort of thing that would mostly only be shot prone, or with a good rest.
A TAC A1 would...
Im not really familiar with Swarovski Z5, but in general, I would suggest direct ring mounts for smaller / hunting style scopes, or a rail + rings for a larger more LR type scope with a thick tube. I...
Id suggest new if you can, then you know exactly what you've got, how its been treated, how much work its done etc. Warranty. I think that's worth the couple hundred you may save from buying used.
I think a cartridge is never really going to be truly popular until components (brass) and ammo are very mainstream, and not excessively expensive compared to other options which do basically the...
Id pick the 303.
Actual accuracy aside (id expect 303 to be much more accurate) the 12g will have a crazy amount of drop, severely limiting your distance, and making shots at different distances a...
