So I have a damaged origin action. Who’s our forum rep to contact? Need to ask some questions before I see about getting it repaired

Hola, desde Argentina, tengo una Remington 700 (RR) con un problema en el extractor primario, y no hay muchos armeros buenos aquí en Argentina. El rifle tiene ese problema. Mi pregunta es: ¿qué opinas de esta reparación con soldadura TIG?

Once in a while I jump on the wife's farcebook and browse the marketplace, sometimes I stumble upon some real gems...


Like this one, I think he's serious:

How do you note the current zero yardage of your rifle when storing it between range days?
For instance:
If I take my 6.5 hottness and confirm zero @100yds then go to 600 and 100yds banging steel, when the day is should I pull out all the wind and elevation and leave it at 100yds Zero?
Or do you leave it at the 600yd zero or 1000yd zero? (which is my preference but does not account for changing wind)
I normally leave mine zeroed @ 600 elevation and whatever wind hold I had remaining.
But I was thinking that this "stored setting" is also related to the amount of wind on that day shooting 600, and the temperature of that day at 600 and so on...
So technically it would be more accurate to at the end of the day go back to 100yds with Zero elevation and wind (basically take out the environmental conditions that existed at range last time)
When leaving it at 600, on my next range visit I just do a hold under value to confirm yardage at 100 plate (disregard wind), then start shooting at the 600 berm.

So do ya'll just go back to zero each time? or note what yardage(and possibly wind, temp etc..) it is left zeroed for?

Just got the email for the preorder, and the website is nonresponsive. I guess that is a good sign.

My 1SG pushed out anonymously that someone in my platoon had a kid going through some hospital surgeries and such and although I don’t know exactly who it is I would do this for any of them. All proceeds from the sale of these items will go straight to them and I’ll eat the shipping.

Soon I’ll post all my free stuff and anything you want to pay/donate toward them will also go straight to that. I don’t have a direct link so if you just want to give then you can send it to me or straight to my 1SG.

A simple question.

Is barrel wear just a function of velocity or is it based on energy?

At the moment in my 308 I'm shooting 168 ELD match heads at around 2700 ft/s

It's a new barrel and I would like to minimise wear ( don't we all!) I'm looking to improve performance at 1000 yds.

So should I increase velocity or increase bullet weight to minimise barrel wear.

All input greatfully received

Came across something while cleaning my suppressor and I wanted to share what I found. My hands were covered in carbon from scrubbing my baffles out and I noticed that zep cherry bomb hand wash took it off real easy. So I came up with the bright idea to try and scrub the baffles with it. Worked amazing for getting the majority of the carbon out. Anyone have any experience with using stuff like this?

I know I can get a cosign indicator on my rail/scope, but I don't want move it from gun to gun or buy one for every rifle.
I want to learn how to do the math longhand. From geometry (or maybe it was calculus) in HS, the saying was Oscar Has A Heap Of Apples
Opposite/Hypotenuse = sign
Adjacent/Hypotenuse = cosign
Opposite/Adjacent = tangent

So how do I do angle shooting math longhand??

Before I get into the introductions- a bit of "housekeeping" on the topic. The subject of "paranormal" might elicit images of folks wearing tinfoil hats but at the root/etymology of the term- all that the term "paranormal" means (academically at least) is topics that are beyond scientific explanation. Nothing more & nothing less, it's just subjects/topics/experiences that aren't (yet) able to be explained.

That being said now- I suppose I've always had an interest in the 'paranormal' but almost always from a curiosity point of view rather than from personal experiences. The closest I can relate to would be frequent deja vu experiences. But this topic has always been of interest to me-

I've started posts here asking for ghost stories. Not necessarily because I personally believe in ghosts but more so because I'm enthralled with the history behind those stories. Reckon that growing up just outside of Gettysburg helped to form that curiosity. I used to be a voracious reader, reading all sorts of published stories about ghosts & pirates (among other topics).

I'm not sure I believe 'ghosts' exist intellectually but I still find those stories fascinating, I also love the supposed video footage "proving" shadow figures/whatever exist in certain structures/locations. Again, it's primarily because I find the history/story as the explanation as being of the most interest to me personally.

One element of the paranormal though that I do permit myself some leeway in being more openminded is when it comes to space, time, extraterrestrials, things of that nature. I'd like to think that there's an intellectual element to my belief in being open minded on the subjects but that's just me (and open for argument).

BUT- on the topic, it's said that there's more stars in the sky than grains of sand on Earth. So, in my minds eye, it would be more than plausible to believe that each of those stars a multitude of planets in their orbit/solar system. And each of those planets likely has moons. The vastness of this rabbit hole is just mind boggling for a simpleton such as myself. But the numbers are just... astronomical and to believe that life exists ONLY here... on Earth alone, in our solar system, I just can't help but find that mathematically implausible.

I'd also argue that being open to the belief of "aliens" from the perspective previously mentioned is not the same as believing that little green men keep visiting earth and are abducting humans & colluding with local governments who are covering up their involvement for decades. All I'm offering is the belief that (in my mind) mathematically there HAS to be multicellular organisms inhabiting the galaxy/universe. On the subject- I've also always considered our 'table of elements' which shapes science as we know it and wondered if the same elements/rules would exist on other planets/moons/solar systems (I lean towards there being a high probability where it doesn't/ even our understanding of life being carbon based may be changed with the gravitational influences in other solar systems.

Enough rambling from me now- anyone else think about/have an opinion on the paranormal?
