Can't say if it's common, it didn't happen to me. Initially I put a Leupold VX-3L scope on it using Leupold bases/rings. Just replaced that with a...
A little update on my Leupold VX-3L on my X-Bolt: I don't think they're available anymore (not on the Leupold site) - but no matter because while I...

I agree with the builds interest and boosts sales theory, I just wish a few more would try making a profit off of the 6.5 Creedmoor. So far I've...
I agree that some appear more oval than round, but not all so it's difficult to say with certainty that the bullets were actually tumbling. But the...
[ATTACH] Actually the holes all appeared round, just widely dispersed. See the picture of some results with them I'll upload. But I went over to a...
