Rifle Scopes Scope for a 50 BMG
Re: Scope for a 50 BMG OK, so this is somewhere I finally get to chime in. I own a model 99, have had it for 5 years. It came with the Burris Elite 10X, that lasted about 30 range trips and 500 or so rounds before it gave up the ghost. More than likely it was the way I handled the scope...- bigdogcrise

Member Link Up Good vendors in Albuquerque?
Re: Good vendors in Albuquerque? Also, check into Los Ranchos Guns and for food you could try out Calico cafe. The other places to eat would be Sadies, and the "original" Garduno's on 4th street.- bigdogcrise

Re: Not your usual "which 9mm do i buy". Aside from all the other suggestions, which are all good btw, how about a Ruger SR9? I have and still shoot the XD, the Beretta, the CZ, the Glock.

Range Report horus ATRAGMX program
Re: horus ATRAGMX program The G1 and G7 are drag models. Check this link out, it gives a pretty clear description of how each works. The G7 drag model is more acurate for long range calculations and performance for various bullet shapes etc. http://www.frfrogspad.com/extbal.htm- bigdogcrise

New Advertisements on the Site
Re: New Advertisements on the Site Well, as someone who also lost the better part of my life in the last six months and has actually had to get back to "working" I can appreciate the fact that LL had to bring these in to pay the bills.

E-Tip vs. Accubond?
Re: E-Tip vs. Accubond? I used the e-tip this year with a 30-06 on my cow elk. 205 yds cross canyon with light wind (full value). She dropped about 50yds from where she was shot. Very small entry and rather small exit. Broke right shoulder and left rib, scrambled insides. Minimal blood...- bigdogcrise

FS2000
Re: FS2000 I have had mine for about a month now and it has been fairly reliable. I use the Silver Bear stuff (<500 rds) in it and have had no FTF or FTE problems with it. The one thing I did discover the hard way though was that I couldn't use my polymer p-mags on it. I tried to force one...- bigdogcrise

Gunsmithing Gun Curing Oven
Re: Gun Curing Oven wnroscoe, I do feel the need to comment on your oven. First-Awesome idea-second- I am very familiar with Ductboard and it is not rated to 350 degrees, I would very carefully watch this puppy when it is running.
