Have you considered mounting a Parker-Hale spigot where the front stud is located? I have an Anschutz rail and use a handstop/spigot with an original Parker-Hale on my SSG69. It is definitely a hefty and dated setup, but it works. Another option is to hunt down a McMillan stock for it; I don't...

Re: stalking silently ? Try practicing it on small game. As a boy, I figured it out by stalking groundhogs.

Re: Every Day Tactical Belt I wear a Wilderness daily. Why are you opposed to velcro?

Re: little help here? No prob. A good illustration of rapid bolt work can be found around the 4:00 mark in Frank's vid below: http://www.youtube.com/user/SHLowlight#p/u/22/3UZ-mApuUoM

Re: Handgun Help With the Anaconda, try putting in 2 snap caps with 4 live rounds when you're shooting a string. That should identify real quick if you're using too little finger surface on the trigger. Edited to add: In a two hand grip, you may also be putting too much pressure with the...

Re: Light vs. Heavy Rimfire Trainer Thanks for the input everyone. I've found that the Anschutz 1917 is much more forgiving of poor technique compared to my Kimber. If my heart rate is elevated for example, the Anschutz would move far less than the lighter rifle. I just wanted to see if...

Re: little help here? You seem to be "hunting" the bolt slightly when you cycle it. I would try to stick out your trigger finger to the bottom of the bolt handle before you cycle it. That will give you a tactile verification before cycling instead of grabbing at it. Definitely solid technique...

Re: 5.56 vs .308 the 9mm vs .45acp argument of rifles? Okay...I gave a real answer in your other thread, which I now regret. WTF.

Re: .308 or 5.56 whats your go to rifle and why? Time for an honest answer: the primary thing that will give you an advantage is a razor sharp mind and rock solid training. The minute differences between rifles are completely irrelevant at your current level of knowledge.
