    precision Ak???

    Honestly if you want something that flings any ammo with every trigger pull I would replace the AK with the SKS. I have found with owning these guns that the SKS was typically more accurate for me than the AK. With custom handloads (waste of time) and the best scope mount I could find on the...

    What bullet will you be using this deer season??

    208 gr a-max in a 300 win mag. Probably a little overkill but it gets the job done every time and are 95% clean shots through.

    Any one know who made this?

    It says in the post that the manufacturer was Fabrique Nationale (Firearms Int'l Corp). I don't know much about older guns, but isn't this who made this?

    Possible to fire form dented Lapua brass?

    That might be what it was caused by (excessive lube). I just didn't know if that was going to be an issue when loading and firing. Didn't know if there was a way to do a blank charge with some powder and wax or something of the sorts. If loading and firing like a normal case is OK, then I may...

    Possible to fire form dented Lapua brass?

    I have 2-3 pieces of once fired 338 Lapua Lapua brass that got dented in the shoulder because I had my die settings wrong for the press I was using. I was curious if there was a way to resurrect this brass or if I should just throw it in the garbage. At $2+ each, I was a little hesitant to take...

    Curious about Silver State Armory .308 ammo

    You searched for: silver state - MidwayUSA I would start there and look at their various reviews on their different ammo. I have shot their 7.62x51 NATO from my SASS and the gun loves it. The 5.56 ammo is decent, but I prefer black hills. Is it superb ammo? In my opinion, no. But is it decent...

    Competition Capable 308

    I have something that shoots 3000 FPS, it's a 300 win mag hah! Man, I load my 168s to right around 2700. I can't imagine pushing one of those over 3000 in my 308. I think my gas guns would explode haha.

    iPad + iOS 8 = Do Not "Upgrade"

    Yea I heard the first rumors of the bugs and although my brother described it as "slick" I was not about to update to it. The same exact thing happened when they went from iOS 6 to 7. I wait until the second or third patch comes out before I update, because EVERY time there are bugs that need to...

    Opinion - Having Rem 700 LA Trued

    I had a custom 308 by R&D and I sold it and bought a Savage 10 and did some mods to it. I figured that if my $600 Savage could shoot 3/4 MOA at 100 yards but a custom $3000+ gun could shoot 1/2 MOA, that just wasn't worth it to me. Then I drank the Kool-Aid and had a custom 338 Lapua built. Do...

    Modern Rifles and barrels.

    I saved this thread in my favorites. It's a good read and I agree, custom grade barrels do not need to be broken in. http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/sniper-hide-gunsmithing/37176-objective-research-barrel-break-procedures.html

    10/22 Help

    Barrel: There are more expensive options but I went with a KSA barrel (I think you can find them on ebay) Bolt: Went with the factory Ruger bolt, didn't see a need to upgrade this (but put a Kidd charging handle on there) Trigger: Went big on this one and got a Volquartsen and it was...

    Rifle Scopes New to me SWFA 20x42, Mils or MOA?

    A picture would help us too. But as crow stated, if it says 1/4 then it is most likely MOA. 1/10 would be mil.
