My LE dealer here in TX is still selling his blue labels starting at $398+tax. Picked up a gen 4 35 for $520 OTD.

Re: Happy Easter-& a 1911 magazine question I have the exact model you now own. I've only tried the supplies springfield mags, wilson 47d's, and chip mccormick shooting stars. Out of the 6 CMC's I have, none of them would feed the first round of ball ammo. The SA were hit and miss. The...

I have been piecing this together since September 11, 2010. I started with a Remington 700 SPS Varmint in .308win. It has a SWFA SS10x42 mounted in Burris XTR low rings on a Weaver 20moa extended tactical rail. I then bought the Harris 1A2 bipod. The stock was next to go, being replaced by a...

Re: Best non 1911 .45 for duty/carry? Aside from owning many 1911's over the years, I've also owned glock and xd in 45acp. My duty gun is a sig 226 in 40sw(department issue, not personal choice allowed). In my opinion, if you have good mechanics and marksmanship skills, you can shoot any...

Re: What would you buy? This is my first bolt gun. Remington 700 sps varmint .308. So far I'm into it for $1100. Ordering a new B&C stock for it this week for $230. With PRVI Match, I shoot ok with it. Once the new stock comes in, I'm taking it to the range with some Hornady Match Amax...

Re: picking up my 5R in 308 This is a Weaver 20moa picatinny extended rail, which comes highly recommended by LoneWolfUSMC. I was originally going to go with an EGW, but his review of this base really caught my eye. It has a built in recoil lug that mates up perfectly with the rifle. It...

Re: Remington SPS Varmint any good?!? Here is mine. Granted, it's in .308win, but I really like it. It's my first bolt action and I'm having fun with it. I will be replacing the stock soon with a B&C Medalist A2 as the plastic remington stock is...well...cheap.

Re: Budget Precision Rifle Build Series LoneWolfUSMC, I've been following your build since you started the bedding job on the base. Because of your viewpoints, I changed my mind from an EGW 20moa base and went with the Weaver 20moa base for my SPS-V rig. Worked like a champ. Took me two...

So, a few weeks ago I went to the local store and picked up their last sps-t in 308win. I'd did a lot of forum searching and decided it would be a great first rifle to get into the shooting game with. I paid $700 for it, which being a hard-to-find rifle, I figured was a good price. Since...
