Proper mounting, parallax adjustment, and turret manipulation are covered for achieving accurate zero at various distances.

This video provides a detailed, step-by-step guide to building a lightweight precision bolt-action rifle, focusing on the Aero Precision Solus LT action and MDT Hunt 26 chassis. It covers critical assembly procedures such as barrel installation, trigger mounting, headspace checks, scope mounting, and chassis bedding, emphasizing proper torque values and techniques for optimal performance and safety. The build highlights the use of high-quality components for a custom, lightweight precision rifle.

This video breaks down the critical factors affecting rifle accuracy, moving beyond the common internet assumption that 1 MOA is universally sufficient. It emphasizes barrel quality as the paramount component, followed by ammunition selection and managing barrel vibration. The instructor highlights common setup errors like incorrect zeroing, loose screws, and improper scope mounting that can significantly degrade a rifle's potential accuracy, even on custom builds.

This guide details the expert process of mounting a rifle scope, emphasizing precision and proper technique. Kyle Lamb of Viking Tactics demonstrates critical steps including achieving a solid mount, correctly torquing scope mount cross bolts to 65 inch-pounds using a Fix It Sticks torque limiter, and ensuring the scope is perfectly leveled using bubble levels. The guide also covers setting eye relief, checking for full field of view, and using index marks with a paint pen for ongoing verification.

This guide details the assembly of a WOOX sniper rifle, including barrel attachment, suppressor mounting, and scope installation. It also covers the process of loading and firing the rifle using Hornady ammunition. The video emphasizes careful assembly with specific torque values for scope mounts.

This video demonstrates the assembly and operation of a WOOX .308 rifle equipped with a suppressor. It covers basic disassembly/reassembly, suppressor attachment, scope mounting with torque specifications, magazine loading with Hornady ammunition, and shooting the suppressed rifle. The content is presented in a casual, hobbyist tone, offering a practical overview for enthusiasts.

This episode delves into the often-underestimated costs and complexities of professional gunsmithing. Hosts Brent Wheat and Rory Huntington discuss why 'just doing it yourself' or opting for cheap services can lead to more problems and expense. They highlight the specialized tools, skills, and time required for tasks like drilling and tapping, action jobs, and even basic cleaning, emphasizing that professional gunsmiths provide value through expertise, quality, and safety.

This guide details the process of zeroing and adjusting the CVLIFE EagleFeather 2-10x32 MPVO scope, drawing from a review by Buckeye Ballistics. It covers mounting, parallax adjustment, initial zeroing at close range, long-distance steel gong engagement, and the use of reticle illumination. The scope is presented as a compact option with advantages over typical LPVOs and 3-9x scopes, including adjustable parallax and a wider magnification range.

This guide, presented by a highly authoritative instructor from Precision Rifle Network, details a methodical approach to troubleshooting a precision rifle that has lost accuracy. It emphasizes thorough cleaning as a first step, followed by mechanical checks, refouling, and systematic testing with match-grade ammunition at increasing distances. The process includes data truing by adjusting ballistic coefficient based on chronograph readings and observed impacts, crucial for long-range accuracy.

This guide details the process of sporterizing a Swiss K31 rifle, focusing on improving accuracy through glass bedding and scope mounting. The expert instruction from Polenar Tactical emphasizes non-permanent modifications to preserve historical value while enhancing performance. Key steps include stock preparation, precise bedding, and the installation of modern optics.

This guide details the installation of optics and a bipod on a CZ 455 Varmint rifle, based on insights from Cranky Gun Reviews. It covers mounting specific CZ rings to the 11mm rail and attaching a BSA Sweet 22 scope, followed by the installation of a bipod using a swivel rail adapter. The speaker, an experienced hobbyist, emphasizes the importance of using correct accessories for the proprietary rail system.
