Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Smith Enterprises Rings. (Wire EDM Cut 4130 steel.)






Smith Enterprises Delrin Reducer Rings, (30 MM To 1")



Smith Enteprises Base, (Also wire cut 4130 steel).



Bushnell 3200 Elite Tactical 5-15X 40MM

Sweet. The rings and rail should be very close to their nominal dimensions. When set up properly, proper wire, wire speed and feed rate, they are slower than milling but hold tolerances to AT LEAST +/- .0002. in comparison a human hair is  .005.

+1 Tombogan,

That is why I sprang for the extra bucks to purchase them. I look at it this way, if the scope goes south, (I have 4 of these Bushnell's and they are great scopes), I can lose the inserts and go to a 30 MM tube model. We'll see what shakes out. At least I'll know if it all goes away, it won't be because of a flimsy mounting set up. The mounts, (rings and base), cost more than the scope!  Bill T.

These photos give you some idea of the sheer size of the Ace 66" .50 BMG Case, as well as it's construction. These were taken on my California King Brass Bed. The other case in the photos is a really nice Bucheimer that I use to transport my 30" barreled Browning Citori, and BT-99 Trap Guns in. Overall I'm pleased with it's construction, as well as it's size.  Bill T.

 That was part of why I got rid of my .300 Win Mag Mod 70. With the back seat down it had to fit between the front seats to get the trunk closed.  ;D
