    Hey Joe, I know this is an OOOOOOLD post, but if you remember/still have the rifle and data do you remember your starting loads with the 124 hammers or the 127 LRX? I have LRX on have and 130 CX on hand but there still isn't tons of data on the 130 or some of the coppers for 6.5 PRC. Thanks...

    Pack with Battle Belt

    I have been using this: https://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=4135 I havent put it on with my belt, but its small enough that I'm pretty sure it would work very well. It's small for a 3 day-er but if you pack light it would carry what you need. FWIW I am in love with the...

    LR 308 "remodeling" Project buffer question

    Once upon a time, I picked up a 20" heavy BBL DPMS LR308, it had a short hand guard and an A2 stock. Not a bad gun but I quickly realized that it was one heavy SOB for its relatively small package. LR-308B in my opinion a very basic rifle that no one put alot of thought in to. I decided to...

    National Guard Soldier Needs Some Gear Help!!!!!!!!!

    I agree, this is a CCIR item, if your commander followed the rules he should have notified the state Joint Operations Center and a CCIR goes to senior leaders in your state. At that time, teh TAG and his staff and a bunch of other muckety mucks will hear of it. It will come right back to him and...

    Maggie’s Whats the absolute worst conditions you'll go shooting?

    I go to my cabin near Ely MN a few times a winter, its beautiful, its very remote, and its AMAZINGLY cold. I shoot for that reason. I get to see what kind of deviation I get in my hand loads from 90 in the summer to -40 in the winter, which is always interesting to me, and I get to train to...
