    Savage- why always 26''?

    Re: Savage- why always 26''? I did exactly that with a 10FP in .223 Rem a few years ago. Bought it new and took it straight to the smith to have the barrel cut. It shoots great and has taken prairie dogs out to 500 yards with ease. I would have no problem cutting a factory Savage barrel down...

    harris snow feet.

    Re: harris snow feet. I have wondered about this too. A buddy and I were talking about it a while back and came up with an idea to try, but have never gotten around to it. Go to Home Depot and get a few of the big paint stir sticks. They are about 18" or 20" long or so and probably about...

    Gunsmithing Cleaning nickel handgun finish

    This question is not precision rifle related, but knowing the Hide, I figured I would be able to get a knowledgeable answer here. I have a buddy that has a Colt 1903 .32 ACP with a nickel finish. It has been seriously neglected and abused over time and has a few spots where the finish is...

    Advanced Marksmanship Ballistics Calculator

    Re: Ballistics Calculator I just looked and found three different levels of Bulletflight. Which would you recommend for the average guy that is not mil / leo and just wants to put lead on steel from a distance? I won't be shooting anything special either, just .223 and .308 and maybe .30-06...

    Gunsmithing How to inlay a medallion in a stock?

    Re: How to inlay a medallion in a stock? Well I couldn't leave well enough alone. Every time I was working on it, the crooked medallion drove me crazy. I ended up drilling it out, and destroyed it in the process, but that's ok because I was able to buy another one. I made the hole just a tad...

    BDUs in Coyote

    Re: BDUs in Coyote http://www.lapolicegear.com/bdu-pants-acu-pants.html Looks like most sizes are on backorder, but they list a standard BDU in coyote. I got a pair from another company a few years ago, but don't remember who it was. I will have to dig around and see if I can remember where...

    midway shooting mat at half price : good deal?

    Re: midway shooting mat at half price : good deal? I got the Pro version today. Nice looking, seems to be well made. I like it's bigger dimensions. The only thing I didn't like is the velcro straps to keep it rolled up and the little shiny silver D rings and clips on the shoulder strap seem...

    Savage Axis/edge rifle?

    Re: Savage Axis/edge rifle? They just released a stainless version now too. I am thinking about adding one to the safe. Paint the stock white, bead blast the shiny stainless and have a good winter predator calling rifle. http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/axisstainless

    Portable platform for shooting in the snow?

    Re: Portable platform for shooting in the snow? I have been considering something similar, but for use in both deep snow and when the grasses get high and make it hard to see over them. I thought about building a folding set up, with a deck on the front end to support the rifle, bags, ammo...
