Just wondering what you guys use for working on your rifles. I've been considering the tipton but wanted your opinions. Thanks....

I bought a CTK Precision last year. It's made from pretty heavy gauge steel, and I believe it's made in the USA.

I haven't owned it long enough to see how it will hold up, but with normal use, it seems like it should last my lifetime, and probably my children's, too.

Here is a link:

I was given a CTK from a coworker, it works very well, highly suggest it. Theyre made 45 miles from me.

Thanks for the welcome BSA, I have yet to purchase one but a friend has and works real well for mounting scopes and sighting in the old fashion way. Deen.

Hey BSA, pretty basic design here, wood clamp, 3 pcs of wood and some felt.
Been using it close to 20 years now.

Nice blackdog, I might just make myself one like that. There are plans on the internet that I've found and I've got some time on my hands right now. Thanks buddy.
