    I have a target scope on an old heavy barrel .243 Sako. everything seems to be working well, I would like to clean and lube the scope. Any suggestions on what to use for cleaning and lubrication? And can someone explain to me the purpose and operation of the recoil spring?

    Mosin Nagant Sporterizing

    I was recently given a Remington Mosin hex action from my dad. I don't know where he got it from, but the barrel was chopped of an inch in front of the rear sight and the bolt was shortened and bent. I want to build a hunting rifle out of it as long as I can get the barrel off. I have a...

    Rifle Scopes New scope for PRS

    Thanks for all of the input. I won’t be buying until after the holidays. I think I am leaning towards a straight power SWFA. I would like the reliability of the SWFA over the features of the Athlon. I was a designated marksman in the Marines, so I’m used to no features and straight power. Are...

I'm am wanting to have the wood stock piller and glass bedded and free float the barrel. I also would like to have the chamber inspected. The rifle is a sako short action in .243...

    Sporterizing a 1903A3

    I would like to try the 30 Gibbs. Can the 30-06 chamber be reamed out to 30 Gibbs? I figure I am going to change the barrel anyway might as well see if I like the 30 Gibbs before I spend the money for a new barrel.

    Sporterizing a 1903A3

    I was looking into a 25-06. I already have a .243 and .270 though and my dad has a 25-06. My idea for this rifle was to have an 06 style cartridge, but with more energy. I do handload all of my own ammo and don't mind fire forming.

    Sporterizing a 1903A3

    Like I said the rifle will be used for 0-500 yards and mostly hogs and deer. Maybe in the near future it will be used on occasional bigger game within 0-500 yards. It's not a do all end all rifle.

    Sporterizing a 1903A3

    There are two main reasons I don't want to go with the 25-06 AI. They are: 1. compared to the .280 AI and 30-06 AI there is not enough energy. 2. My dad has a heavy barreled ruger in 25-06. It is an old time great caliber though.

    Sporterizing a 1903A3

    I understand all of this. The .308 bullet may have a lower B.C. then the .284 of the same wight, but when fired through a 30-06 AI (comparred to the 280 AI) the .308 bullet has less drop more energy and more velocity out to 500 yards. I was asking you to explain more about why the AI's are...

    Sporterizing a 1903A3

    I have the Springfield action already and I am wanting to make an A4 clone for hunting. If i do leave it a 30-06 (more like a 30-06 AI) I will most likely using a 180 or 185 grain hunting bullet.
