    Measuring to the lands

    Re: Measuring to the lands My gun is a Savage 110. Thanks for the tips, I am going to give it a go. My plan is to use Varget and 175gr smk. Right now with Black Hills Match 175gr it is shooting 1/2" if the bone head pulling the trigger works it right...I am hoping to load something that is...

    Measuring to the lands

    I am just getting into reloading for my rifle and have learned a lot from the sticky'd threads above. I read the thread about measuring and determining where your lands are and I wonder if there is a different way to measure the lands than Tresmon described. Not that I don't think it works, but...

    Gun familiarity question

    Hey guys, I have a question for you. I am a police officer and carry an ar15 on duty which I shoot quite a bit. I have recently got into more "serious" precision shooting and purchased a Savage 110 in 308 in a Mcmillan stock. I have been having some issues getting used to shooting the bolt gun...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns The AK-47 of 1911's

    Re: The AK-47 of 1911's Do some research on Rock Island, they are not junk. Good entry level guns, great customer support and high reviews. I have had one for a little over a year with several hundred rounds through it and no issues.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Duty pistol, could use some advice

    Re: Duty pistol, could use some advice As an officer I would suggest Glock, either 22 or 17. Reasons being- ease of use, no safety to worry about, reliability, ease of maintenance, availability of parts and accessories, and high magazine capacity. I have always been a .40 or .45 guy, but in...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns You think your side arm is badass?

    Re: You think your side arm is badass? Jericho, I guess I don't understand your comment.... I was suprised at how little the pistol seemed to recoil given the extreme size of the bullet. I would think it would be pretty hard to control.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns So I picked this up

    Re: So I picked this up Most 1911s will have a break in period and many manufactorers will tell you not to try hollow point ammo until you have shot several hundred arounds of ball ammo. Another thing to try before sending it anywhere is several different magazines. I have had trouble in...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Yes, I'm starting a caliber debate...

    Re: Yes, I'm starting a caliber debate... I carry a 642 in my pocket while on duty everyday. With +P ammo the recoil is stout but manageable and I shoot it well. That being said, I have no misconceptions about what it is- a pistol round and all pistol rounds are inferior, don't let anyone...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns You think your side arm is badass?

    Re: You think your side arm is badass? that is literally a hand cannon! I am suprised at how little recoil there appeared to be.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Best 1911 under $1,000.00; under $750.00 ??

    Re: Best 1911 under $1,000.00; under $750.00 ?? I recently bought a Sig Nitron as pictured several posts above me (minus the rail), in a word Awesome. Fit and finish are specatacular, the checkering is great, comes with night sights and it feeds everything I can throw at it. Walked out with...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Why are 1911's so expensive???

    Re: Why are 1911's so expensive??? I have owned several 1911's and believe you do get what you pay for, most of the time. My Rock Island GI cost me $400 new and I have shot the crap out of it...but it refuses to function reliably with most hollow points. I also bought a Rock Island...

    New member, New gun

    Well I have learned a ton lurking on here for the last 3 or so months. I got into predator hunting around a year ago and that naturally progressed into interest in long range shooting. I picked up a gently used set up from a guy on my dept's tactical team the other day, think I did pretty...
