    I really screwed up

    I am 32 and have constant ringing in my ears. When I was younger I rarely wore ear plugs, no matter what I was shooting- my buddies and I got a kick out of who could last longest (dumb kids). Now as a cop, I have a radio constantly talking in one ear, car pd radio barking out of a speaker in my...

    Budget range finder

    Thanks for the input guys, jcvibby hooked me up on the unit he had. I would love to move up to a Leica, but honestly I don't shoot at distances far enough to justify it. If the unit I have coming can get me to 800 on steel that is great.

    Rifle Scopes Economical scope with FFP moa/moa?

    I also have the Weaver tactical 3-15 illuminated mil/mil. I am not any great long distance shooter by any means but it has done everything I have asked. If I had the budget to get something more expensive I certainly would, but I don't feel that I am at a disadvantage at all with the Weaver.

    Budget range finder

    I know you get what you pay for, but are there any budget minded range finders out there? Ideally able to range reflective out to 800, trees out to 4-500? I realize this may not exist, but does anyone have any experience with a poor man's lrf? Thanks, Jethro

    Rifle Scopes weaver super slam scopes

    I have the 3-15 with the edmr reticle and I love it. It does everything I need it to, glass is excellent and it has always tracked perfectly. I shoot out to 750 with it on a regular basis. I would love to get myself into the next level of optics but when I do this scope will go on another rifle...

    Whats your 77smk 2000mr load?

    Hey guys, not finding a lot of info on 2000mr real world results out there. I just started development with cannalured 77smk, started with 24.0gr and worked up by .2gr to 25.6gr. I found that 24.6gr shot very tight, .5 moa. Strangely, .2gr over and under was significantly larger, around 1...

    Who has worked behind a gun counter? A few pointers before your next trip

    Kinda reminds me of what I have to tell myself when I go to a public range (which I rarely do)- the staff has no clue that I am a firearms instructor for my department, have no clue thatI am on a tac team or any clue of my level of knowledge. Because it is impossible to know this, they treat...

    Hunting & Fishing Hornady AMAX for hunting?

    I took a large cow elk 5 days ago, just under 250 yards with a 178 amax. I was going to start a new thread with thoughts and pictures, but I will just put it here. In the end, I will probably get just over 300lbs of meat from this big ol fat girl. She was downhill crossing in front of me...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Why open carry?

    I used to open carry when I was younger. I did this because at that time I didn't have my ccw. As soon as I obtained that, I always concealed. I am also not opposed to someone open carrying to make a point, provided they are still respectful of those who don't care for it and they abide by...

    Primer question

    So my buddy gave me some primers (federal 205) that have been sitting boxed up in his shop for around 15 years. This shop isn't air conditioned and it gets mighty warm in Phoenix in the summer. Just wondering if there could be any issues with these primers given how they were stored. Thanks...

    Disappointed with BCM 18" SPR barrel

    I recently bought an upper from Surplus Ammo and Arms, 18" 1/8 Black hole Weaponry polgonal barrel. Took it out to my distance spot and sighted it in at our closest target, 230 yards. 3 rounds to get on target and the next 6 rounds into a nice group just over 2 inches with department issued...

    Varget recipe for .308

    I am feeling like people will think my load is too hot...I shoot 178 amax with 44.5gr of Varget, no pressure signs and excellent groups. I don't have access to a chrono so I can't say my speed (its through a 20" Savage). Jethro

    Finally found Varget, ouch...

    We do have Sportsman Warehouse but much like the difficulty of finding .22 ammo, powder is strikingly similar. I haven't found Varget at Sportsman's in a loooong time. I know they get occasional shipments, but being there at the right time is tough, especially when the shipments get in in the...

    Finally found Varget, ouch...

    So I haven't found Varget locally since January. In all honesty I haven't looked incredibly hard, just ever other week or so at my local haunts. Today I found that Bruno's shooting supply had quite a few 1 pounders in stock, so I grabbed one (payday is next week). Bruno's doesn't have their...

    Star Spangled Banner???

    I would just say that the most inspiring verse of our anthem is the last one, it is a true testament to what preserved our country- the blessing of God and the will of the people to fight for a just cause. Unfortunately I would bet the majority of our populace only thinks our anthem has one...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Ideas..... .40 Caliber 1911 ?

    I believe Rock Island is making a 1911 in 10mm, maybe you could do a barrel swap?
