I got these on clearance for just over 100 bucks and they put my vortex hd binoculars to shame . They were apparently made by armasight a military optics contractor has anyone else purchased and compared them to any high end binos , I am very impressed with the performance of these .
Got a tripod and upgraded the bolt with the desh industries savage bolt lift kit and its like night and day the bolt is substantially better best 20 bucks I have spent in awhile .
I gave my savage 110 tactical new shoes after 7 years I am trying ultradyne chassis many people may recognize this post from 6 or so years ago . People wanted to know how it performed and I can say it was well worth the 500 I paid for it new . My next upgrade will be the muzzle brake and bolt . I plan to get the MPA DN5 or gen 4 Fat bastard . I want to upgrade the bolt body and install the upgraded dual ejector . Then I want to get a scope I have outgrown the sig sauer and want to start getting out past 500 yards . I dont have a ton of dough so I am wondering if the budget scopes like the arken or athlon are just hype or what one to go with. I realize for the 1500 I have into this rifle I could have started with a better platform but I have enjoyed learning and building it up . The savage fluted barrel is surprisingly accurate so i dont regret my purchase and am quite sure I will be able to maintain sub moa past 500 yards and hope to get out to 800 or 900 I recently switched from 168 grain sierra .308 match ammo to 175g 7.62 m118 lr because I got a good deal on bulk 400 rounds I am not sure how it is going to group yet or what adjustments may need made. I am hoping it will perform equally well. I started out shooting 6 and 7 inch groups at 300 and through alot of trial and error and 6 sets of scope rings and other accessories am getting it dialed slowly the target was cold bore 250 yard group i was unable to finish my shot group because they closed the range early due to weather but i was using australian outback .308 168 grain sierra matchking hpbt it is the best factory match ammo I have found to date for my rifle but I cant find it available anymore. I hope the 175g works well in my rifle with the 1:10 twist and 20inch barrel.
