    I bet you can't tell me what brand scope this is

    My guess to op’s question is the brand is… Ruepold.

    ISO HUB style direct thread for 375 suppressor in 5/8 x18

    It would be threaded to 1/2-28, then the 5/8-24 is threaded on over the 1/2-28. You have an adapter 1/2-28 to 5/8-24. Purple lock tite holds it all in place. Some gunsmiths incorporate a tapered shoulder that makes it all look good.

    ISO HUB style direct thread for 375 suppressor in 5/8 x18

    Ecco is what I use for my Hybrid 46 direct thread. My buddy decide to go with the ASR mount and the 5/8-18 to 5/8-24 thread adapter. Had a baffle strike even after verifying with an alignment rod. Better option. Have a gunsmith remove your barrel band sight. Thread the barrel to 1/2-28 then...

    Hornady 375 Caliber 250 grain CX Experiences

    I used the same 375 Ruger, 300 grain TSX load for Buffalo and plains game. Maybe think about keeping it simple.

    Hornady DGX bonded failure

    Another Woodleigh Bullet On my first Buffalo hunt I used a 375 Ruger loaded with the Barnes TSX @2550 fps. The TSX preformed as advertised. My buddy used the DGX, 375 Ruger. Looks kinda bad when compared to the TSX. I will take the TSX performance over the DGX any day. The TSX preformed the...

    New 338 Rifle

    I looked at the 35 caliber lever guns. Could not bring myself to buy a BLR in 358 Win. Then there was the 35 Remington... finding a decent one was a bit harder than finding a 338 Marlin. I did mount a scope on it. Though I had a Leupold 2-7 but it turned out to be a VX-1 3-9. After shooting...

    Rewilding, Scotland, A Very Moorish Idyl

    The Highlands as they are today is an iconic place. The land speaks of the toughness and tenacity of the Scottish people. It is a place that has witnessed the struggle of the Scottish people. A place that once you see it, you realize how truly unique it is.

    Value of Ruger M77 Magnum (.458 Lott)

    I would put its value in the $2500 to $3000 range, based on prices of rifles that have sold lately. At $4000 it will sit for a long time. Some of sellers are misinformed as to the value of their rifle. Some sellers paid to much and are trying to pass that mistake on to the next buyer. Then...

    The joys of reloading Big Bores

    I recently did the same thing with a 450-400 case and RCBS shell holder. I did not have a stuck case remover, but I do now. Was reloading some once fired brass, factory new cases sized and chambered fine, but it turns out the once fired needed a tiny bit more on the sizing. So… got in a bit of...

    Which Leupold for a CZ550?

    I also run a VX5 2-10 with FireDot, except I opted for the CDS, on my 375 Ruger. When hunting I do not want to count clicks or figure hold over. Simply dial to the yardage and send it.

    Redfield scopes

    My Remington 760 20-06 wears a 1982 era 3-9 Redfield. It was my grandfathers deer rifle. Never has a problem with it maintains its zero.
