If your windage turret was still turned where it belongs, the THAT didn’t happen to you. Including re-indexing the turret during the mischief is just too unlikely. Bums are usually a bit lazy.

My Dad had some interesting stories of see indirect cheating at rifle matches. Like putting a handful of windage on another person’s rifle when the bum thought no one was looking. At that time and those places, the rifles were racked in between relays.

Wooden case of two Spam cans of HXP-69 M2 Ball .30-06. Total 480 rounds in cartons. Lot no. 1138. $720 for the whole case. $400 per can of you want it split up. Free delivery or meet you halfway anywhere from Kanab to Beaver. In St. George. Otherwise, case says it’s 41 lbs (I will confirm)...

200 or less rounds on the scope. Here is the reticle. There is an offer pending but backup offers will be held in the order received.

This one looks better than what the CMP describes as their best non-auction grade, "Service Grade" SN in the 1.8 million range. Remington-Rand frame and slide. All proper markings including inspection/acceptance stamp of Lt. Col. Frank J. Atwood (RJA) who was on duty in that area from 1942 to...

We all know the quality of these units. See pics. SFP, MOA/MOA, not illuminated. Vortex lens covered included. No shipping needed for FTF cash in southwest Utah, Beaver to Kanab and even Beaver Dam AZ. Beyond that, we'll have to talk about delivery or just ship it, insured.

Haha! I've seen similar data in USA Bullseye pistol. Some bullets just flip sideways and fly a few inches off your aim at 49 yards! Especially in .38 Special.

And THANK YOU for referencing the right Red Dawn. In the remake, Peeta's (actor's character in Hunger Games) "Wolverines!" cry from atop the building was weak and a half-beat late. And the anti-Iraq war references made me want to puke.

Sure hope that’s sarcasm and pointing out the false excuse of every commie failure on the planet...the Workers’ Paradise can’t work until the worldwide revolution is complete and the last capitalist is hung. They can go around the corner and hump a unicorn for all I care. Government forced...

Um, that’s the Hammond lease up in Oregon, not the Cliven Bundy lease in Nevada. Bundy was a freeloader with the intellectual honesty of an Irwin Schiff tax protester. And I hate what the FBI tried to do to Bundy and his hangers-on. Anyone have a clue as to how often and how much farther back...

Well the Hornady 178 A-Max crunches with that load in USGI brass. Has IMR 4064 had burn rate variations lately? Worked up that load a few years ago, and this year I’m getting signs of max pressure using it with 168 ELDs. Bearing length on the ELD is noticeably shorter than on the 178 A-Max...

M1A full length (22" barrel), 168-gr bullets (probably the Hornady ELD since they finally fixed that boat tail problem), GI brass. Varget or good old reliable IMR 4064??? Wondering where the collective experiences and wisdom are on this these days. I'm in the midst of load development once I...

IME/IMO, the M14 drops from many capable of .5-.8 MOA to 1-1.5 MOA at rounds 4 and/or 5 in the group. I rebarrelled mine when a 2nd hard-found load opened up to 1.25-1.5 MOA all the time. Both the prior barrel and this one will drop 2-3 rounds almost on top of each other out to 600. My spot...

Not every double izza slamfire. There's jar-off of a badly worn/"tuned" trigger, "bump" firing when the slowly squeezing trigger finger is in the no-man's land between squeezed follow through and really being released, and the various ways the fining pin by itself (or a very high primer) can...

I'm not, but if'n I ever get a Garand again I'll probably run them. Pretty sure you can get enough speed out of them launched from a .30-06 and 24 full inches of barrel, to make them stay enough supersonic at 1,000. ONE load for everything is way cool. Net recoil should also be less than 175s...
