    I have a Tikka Lite in 270. Excellent trigger and very accuarate, neat little rifle and very lite. The barrel is free floated with no pressure points.

    Can see heartbeat bounce crosshairs a lot. Issue with the stock (PRS)?

    I have been a member here for 4 years, lost my post count in the conversion a few months back. I too, have that heartbeat problem and notice the crosshairs jumping at 100yds. Other than my Service time in the late 60's as a 11 B 10, I have had no formal training,so when I saw this thread under...

    Need a 123 AMAX load for a BeanLand 6.5x47!

    That seems really lots of RL15 for a 123 gr, I use 39.5 and am pushing it, No way could my Beanland,Stiller-Bartlein digest that without a big problem. You must be turning 3200 fps or more. Easy E thanks for correcting that, someone would be in for a bad day trying that original load...

    Pistol powder recommendation

    Unique, Power Pistol, and Win 231, in that order Unique may be easier to find, since it is a popular shotgun powder for heavy loads., May want to check out Bullseye or Herco it may be available and work for you until something else comes along.

    The Damage Wrought by the Gun Lobby

    Does anyone know just exactly what information will be included in the proposed background checks that is so much in favor by 80% of the population. How can you be in favor of something if you do not know the specifics of such.

    Getting a pup used to shooting.

    I raised English Pointers for years, can not even guess the number of litters. A gunshy pointer is backfill for a hole, nothing more nothing else. As such I would shoot a blank 22 around them from the day they were born at a distance and closer and closer and then at feeding time I would shoot...

    Mark Kelly - Giffords is having a bad day

    Wonder how many children are killed or maimed in a year by Pit bulls, and the like. Maybe Gifford and Kelly need to go on a road show for banning those type of assault dogs. By the way I am a dog lover, just a metaphor regarding the PIT BULL.

    Gunsmithing Getting a new barrel, should i have the action trued?

    Get it trued, most smiths are hesitant to put a new barrel on and untrued 700 action. Yes it should shoot under MOA, IF you can shoot under a MOA, most guns are limited to potential accuary by the shooter and not the gun.
