Hornady has the most incredible customer service. I broke a part on my Lock-N-Load AP Powder Measure and Case Activated Powder Drop. I called them up and within a couple of minutes they are sending me not just one, but also a spare at no cost to me! I love this company!!! This is how American...

Re: One-piece Scope Mount Ideas? Thanks for the suggestions guys. It gives me some ideas. I'll be doing something this week.

Re: One-piece Scope Mount Ideas? I wasn't aware that Seekins makes a one-piece mount/rings. Do they have something out there now? I'll check out their website.

Re: TNVC SHOT Show Preview I'm looking forward to more information on this product. While I can buy LE/Military products, I'm not in need of the robustness that drives the cost up.

I want to replace my 2-piece Leupold Mark 4 base and rings with a 1-piece. I'm looking for a quality 20MOA rail and 1-piece mount/rings. The rifle is a Remington 700 in an Accuracy International stock. Throw some quality equipment ideas at me. Budget isn't an issue. Thanks in advance!

Re: Bullet seating consistency? Whose micrometer die do you guys use? I've been thinking of getting one. I'm getting .005 variation with my standard die, but would like to improve on that if possible.

Re: ultrasonic cleaning problem...... I just use distilled water for the rinse and don't add citranox or any other agent. I just get them clean. I'm not too worried about making them shiny. You should notice a difference with the distilled water vs the filtered water.

Re: ultrasonic cleaning problem...... You may want to use distilled water in your cleaning solution and for rinsing instead of tap water. Tap water will discolor brass. I may have OCD, but I tumble them first for about an hour in crushed walnut just to get the tough stuff off, and then I...

Re: Best place to buy a AI AICS Stock I bought my 2.0 from EuroOptics a few years ago. If you are going to travel with it, don't under estimate the savings in size and weight by being able to go with a shorter Pelican Case if you get the folding stock.

Re: CA Remington M700 Carbon One AU John, With the exception of the first two groups out of the rifle (I wasn't used to the setup), the barrel and shooter have settled in and that 'blown' out first shot is inside .525" consistently now. I only shoot 5-shot groups. With the exception of a...

Re: CA Remington M700 Carbon One I've been looking at the AWC Thundertrap in titanium. I'll take a look at the Gemtech as well. Thanks! The jury is still out on the Cerkote. I may end up having it stripped someday and Black-T'd.

A few months ago, I purchased a lightly used Kimber Custom II from a friend. I immediately took the Custom II out to the range and found it to be very accurate. It will probably end up getting used as an IDPA pistol in the near future. The finish was slightly worn, as would be expected, from...

Re: CA Remington M700 Carbon One I realized I didn't give proper credit to my gunsmith whom did a fantastic job of getting her squared up and making some minor changes to DBM. Steven at Woodbrook Sports in Charlottesville, VA is my go-to-guy for all things technical related to my firearms...

Re: CA Remington M700 Carbon One I am content to shoot 300 at the private club or extend beyond on my hunt club's property. To go beyond 300 there usually means shooting down the high power line clearings.

Re: CA Remington M700 Carbon One Any other CF shooters out there?
