Seeing all the posts about scope covers here's a re-post of one of my threads from wayback in 2009.... There are many posts weekly about what BC covers fit what scope. There is even a nice sticky here on the Hide under Optics FAQ's by sobrbiker883 here...

Was checking the sales and clearance items on Midway USA and saw this: Redding Big Boss II On-Sale This is the one that has the spent primer collection system as used on the T-7 and Ultramag presses (spent primers drop through the hollow ram into a plastic tube which will hold hundreds of...

In the fine southern tradition, tomorrow is opening day. Dove season kicks off the start of a new year of hunting. There ain't nothin' finer, than to be humiliated in Carolina, by a scarcely 1 lb gray flying kamikaze. Here's what they look like, when there not flying by at 50 MPH: And...

NC Military Academy head suspected of posing as Vietnam Vet

You know, I like rifle optics. I like reading about them, testing them, using them, seeing pictures of them, hell my wife thinks I like scopes more than neeked women. And at my age, 60 years old, she could be right. But damn, if I read one more post about ordering, buying, or contemplating...

I don't go to the Shot Show, but I do like to read the Optics reviews generously posted by Hide Members and Sponsors both here on on their various blogs. My view of the Tactical Optics market, has always been viewed as a three tiered one, when looking at street prices, not MSRP's thus: High...

I been pondering a re-barreling my .308. It is used for tactical comps mostly, with a bit of hunting thrown in. After considering the 6.5's for a while, I decided that better barrel life (compared to the 260 rem/6.5 Creedmoor), might trump slightly better downrange ballistics, and I started to...

I have a new in package Badger Ord. Steel Recoil Lug. marked P/N 1005-306-01, that I have not used yet, that I got from Triad. It's marked as .313" thick and I mic'ed it @ exactly .313" Thick. On the Badger site all the recoil lugs are listed as .312" thick. The Manners MCS-DBM system also...

Hider's, Yesterday I got an e-mail from UPS (United Parcel Service) stating the following: <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">Dear customer! Unfortunately we were not able to deliver postal package sent on the 9th of December in time because the addressee's...

I've been toying with the idea of building a 6.5 Creedmoor for some time. What I needed was a good donor Rem 700 action. I thought about a custom action, but the upfront price always deterred me. And good Remington 700 donors are getting harder to find on the cheap, and I even considered a new...

There are many posts weekly about what BC covers fit what scope. There is even a nice sticky here on the Hide under Optics FAQ's by sobrbiker883 here: Optic's FAQ's BC Chart In addition there is this chart by EA Brown Co here: EA Brown BC Cover Chart Although they are both great...

There is a whole plethora of information about rings heights, usually from the manufacturers, but a dearth of information about base heights. Since the distance your scope's bell is above the barrel is a function of both ring height and base height, I thought it might be useful if we could...

I am in the process of obtaining a donor rifle/action for medium game hunting first, and LR Target shooting as a secondary activity. I'm interested in building, rather than just buying off the rack. My requirements are: Man portable: 10 lbs or less complete Caliber: .284 Performance range...
