    Converting .308 Brass To 6.5 Cm - Necking down?

    I've tried that - running a deeply trimmed .308 case right into the 6.5CM die with a fair amount of lube on the case wall. I got cases that were about right, but huge dimples in the necks. These were not lube dimples, but the way the case crushed into the die. It seemed to me that it needed to...

    Unimount vs Rings for scope swapping

    I've tried it with rings and a Larue LT111 unified mount. They both work fine - I need to rezero after remounting as both return close to zero but not right back on. The Larue is easier to swap since it has the QD levers.

    Shooting glasses with one eye blacked out...

    the target shooter's trick is to just put some cellophane (clear) tape over part of the off-eye lens. both eyes open and both pupils are open the same so no eye strain. but because you can't see thru the off-eye lens, you are forced to use the other side. but because it just over part of the...

    New guy looking for Sling input....

    Padded vtac sling might work for you. There are several ways to low crawl with a rifle - depends on how low you need to go. A simple middle crawl is to cradle the rifle in the crook of your arms, using your elbows to pull and legs to push. A low crawl is becoming one with the ground - grab...

    Wet tumbling drying rack

    Fruit/vegetable dehydrator from Harbor Freight over a box fan - I use some PVC pipe to span the box fan face so the dehydrator doesn't press on the fan hub. Low heat for the dehydrator which has an open bottom section. Doesn't take too long before warm dry cases come out.

    Chassis for Remington 700

    what is "excellent, good or not worth having" depends on how you intend to use it. for example, if you're going to mostly do belly shooting, having a tool-less adjustable stock might not be worth having but if you're doing a lot of position shooting it might be. or, if you're humping that...
