    Can't get a 300 win mag zeroed, won't hold a group, suggestions?

    Brian Litz added his “two cents.” He agrees with you Powder_Burns, but doesn't say that over-stabilization “isn't a thing.” It certainly exists. Your statement is a rather blanketed statement.

    Can't get a 300 win mag zeroed, won't hold a group, suggestions?

    Like I said, it was just “my two cents.” trying to think outside the box. Brian Litz evidently thought it was worth an entry: http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2013/07/over-stabilization-of-bullets-why-is-too-much-spin-a-problem/

    Can't get a 300 win mag zeroed, won't hold a group, suggestions?

    Weapon Safes

    Have you looked into secureitgunstorage.com? Reasonably priced, lightweight. No fire protection though. I've been considering their Agile Ultralight line. It worth a look!

    What age did you introduce your kids to firearms and how?

    As an NRA certified instructor and Primary Marksmanship Instructor (PMI) in the Marine Corps, I started my kids with .22 (Rifle and Pistol). I then worked my way up in caliber. I have made errors on occasion. One example was one day my eldest wanted to shoot my Garand. I then strongly...

    Hunting & Fishing Do you carry a Range Finder, Binoculars, or Both when hunting?

    I dumped my Leupold for my Steiner M830r LRF 8x30, Laser Rangefinder from BOTACH. Got a great price of $1800. Well worth it.

    Roger that, it helps when you have the nomenclature in order to do an internet search. I should make my signature moniker; Irish born and Irish bred, big in the arms and thick in the head!o_O

    FYI - Tikka T3x TAC A1 Rifle Stock QD Mount Issue

    Hey Conaso, I just received my TAC A1. I am trying to figure out how to order and mount a QD (female) sling mount to my stock for my rear bag for quick attach-detachment. What would I need to order? I'm having a senior moment as to how a female attachment point would secure on to the stock...

    best way to carry a rifle with a mystery ranch pac

    I just purchased an MR Popup 38 and was hoping to use it for my Tikka T3x TAC A1 for moving from iteration to iteration. I suppose I could fold the stock and pack the rifle like boned out meat. Thoughts?
