I'm with Mr. Peltier on this! And at the minimal torque we are talking about it would almost be impossible to "bend" a scope tube. Not talking ring misalignment, I'm just talking about constricting down on a round tube, unless you tube is so thin walled you could see the lenses through it

Both Sabers like just about everything. The JP really likes 55 grain ballistic tips, either Sierra or Nozler, but it will group the 77 grns almost as good as all of them just a bit under 1moa. I use 55 grn for all match shooting, and have only grouped the 77 grns to see if it would like them. The two Sabers I use for pigs so they get 77s.

Each barrel is different I have two Saber Defence 1x8 barrels one a 16" the other 18 and they are both astoundingly accurate with the 77SMK as is my 20" JP 1X8. The JP absolutely hates the 75 grain Hornady load, to the tune of 4MOA, instead of a bit less the 1. But the Saber barrels don't mind the Hornady at all.

Why yes you did. Nice finish in Finland btw! Great job!!!!

Hey, we look like twins, except I am a lot heavier and you have an optic!

I don't use the "hold" you describe. I never change how I hold the rifle whether it is close or far. This is how I hold it. I detest the "C Clamp" type grip you describe, because as you noted, it way over controls the front of the rifle.

Bad gas rings, carrier key loose maybe, but gas rings are cheap start there.

Well, not looks only, it was a convenient way to put a sling swivel on it, and it looked cool to the designer. Take it off without fear!

File a 45° angle on the back of your shell cutoff lever.

I replace mine Everytime I let my son shoot a match with my pistol.... He just won't stay out of ports!!!

Careful going too light on the disconnect spring, and if you go with a light hammer spring you might want to lighten your hammer, or get a lighter hammer in case you don't already have one. The disconnect spring really has nothing to do with trigger pull weight.

But, but, it has a redesigned bolt release, AND it gotst a scallop cut out of the trigger guard!!! It's got to be 3-gun ready..... After you send it to Benny, Taran, or Rose! And it's only way over priced!

That is absolutely correct!

That is sound advice.

But, but, I was not in the war
