    Does the action ever wear out?

    I know of folks who have replaced their rifle's barrel several times but I have never heard any of these folks talking about needing to replace the action. Does the rifle's action ever wear out?

    Rifle Scopes I need new low rings

    I installed a scope on my rim fire rifle and, although the height of the rings works well, they are too wide for the picatinny rail and I can't push my scope forward enough. I am currently using Burris XTR Low 30mm rings which measure 0.25" from the base to the bottom of the ring (or 0.084" to...

    Full Length Sizing Dies

    Are all Full Length Sizing Dies built equal or is there a brand and/or model of FL Sizing Die that is vastly superior to others? I have a boat-load of once-fired .223 brass (shot through a semi-auto) that needs to be brought back to spec so I can run it through a bolt gun.

    Re: Effective Range of 6PPC Interesting article! I would have never though that this round could make it out to 500 yards with any sort of accuracy but I see i was wrong to assume that. Thanks for the links!

    Range Report Which Barometric Pressure figure should I use?

    I am trying to calibrate a Kestrel unit and I just found out that there are two different Barometric Pressure figures that I can choose from. One is the <span style="font-style: italic">Barometric Altimeter Setting</span> and the other one is the <span style="font-style: italic">Mean Sea Level...

    Rifle Scopes Where to measure the sight height from?

    When using a scope, where am I supposed to measure the height sight from so that I can input this information into a ballistics program?

    Thinking about a Remington 597, Opinions?

    Re: Thinking about a Remington 597, Opinions? I had a 597 for a while and, while a really fun plinker, it was not the most accurate .22LR I have ever seen. It's been said before but it is worth repeating: You want accurate and affordable, get yourself a Savage Mk II FV

    Inconsistent neck tension with Winchester brass

    I am on the second reload of Winchester .308 brass (all the same lot) and I am having some inconsistent neck-thickness measurements. The brass thickness reads anywhere from 0.0115" to 0.0140" (per side) which means that, if I want to maintain the same 0.002" neck tension, I have to use neck...

    Rifle Scopes Millet LRS rings

    Re: Millet LRS rings TPS offers a great quality! The three brands that folks seem to recommend the most for the LRS are TPS, IOR and Seekins. I have also read that, for those people mounting this scope over a 20 MOA base (on a bolt gun), the low rings tend to work best. Though we all know...
