    Re: Remington 5R Mil Spec 300 Win Mag. ADVICE!!! I didn't care for the factory stock, I replaced it with a folding version from McRee Precision and like it a lot more.

    Took the plunge.....Remington 5R

    Re: Took the plunge.....Remington 5R I have a feeling you are going to love that 5R. I have one and reading this thread makes me think about buying another one. It's a half minute, heavy barreled, remington 700, what more could a guy ask for? I've thought long and hard about buying a...

    Which weather reader to buy?

    Re: Which weather reader to buy? Thank you all very much for the replies, Kestrel 4000 or 4500nv it is. This snipers hide membership is turning out to be expensive. In the last two weeks, I've spent a lot. $2,120 for a USO scope $99 for a belt die $230 for stainless tumbling equipment...

    discount code on complete stainless tumbler setup

    Re: discount code on complete stainless tumbler setup Just used this as well, it worked for $10 bucks. Shipping is a nightmare, so every little bit helps. It must be a big box, the cheapest option I could find was 23 bucks via UPS ground.

    Torn between Remington 5R and Remington XCR TLR

    Re: Torn between Remington 5R and Remington XCR TLR I've thought a lot about shortening it up to 22" and having it threaded. It's not complicated or expensive, but there's no gunsmith within 100 miles of me that can do it. I'm in the slow process of purchasing a suppressor, setting up an...

    Which weather reader to buy?

    Hello all, I need to get something to read wind, density altitude, and temperature. A compass heading feature would also be nice. I'm pretty hard on gear, and willing to spend up to $400, although less would certainly be nice. Does anyone have a recommendation?

    Resizing Belted Magnum Brass

    Re: Resizing Belted Magnum Brass I forgot to add another conern is that the brass fired in my rifle will expand to fit my rifle's chamber. If my buddy or my brother uses my handloads and their rifle has a tighter chamber, they may not be able to chamber a round or close the bolt. Also...

    Resizing Belted Magnum Brass

    Re: Resizing Belted Magnum Brass Maybe your chamber is more loose or your loads aren't as hot. I've got around 100 pieces of brass, some on their second loading, some on their third. Every once in a while, maybe one round out of a five round magazine, it gets hard to close the bolt. It's...

    Range Report Shooter Ballistics app now for iPhone

    Re: Shooter Ballistics app now for iPhone The more I use this app, the more I love it. I just started playing with the "powder temp" function. What a great idea! That was one thing that always bothered me with Ballistic FTE, I knew when I was shooting in 0 degree weather with a velocity I...

    Gseven rangefinder?

    Re: Gseven rangefinder? Thanks for the information, I had never thought of doing that. I'm still pretty interested and may see what I can to to jump in on the group buy. On one hand, I wish the thing could give me a mil correction, but on the other hand, even if I don't use the correction...

    Torn between Remington 5R and Remington XCR TLR

    Re: Torn between Remington 5R and Remington XCR TLR When I first got the rifle and started loading for it, I was still doing all me load development at 100 yards. I'd load up 5 rounds at this charge and five rounds at that charge, this bullet, that bullet, and just try to see what worked...

    Gseven rangefinder?

    Re: Gseven rangefinder? The response to my question of whether a mil version will be offered: Gunwerks wrote: "Not anytime soon. Just the moa and bdc options for now. " How disappointing. Especially since it seems it would be a relatively simple modification to make on thier part.

    Gseven rangefinder?

    Re: Gseven rangefinder? I've read that review, it's one of the reasons Im interested in the product. However if they won't make a mil version, they probably won't get my business. Especially considering that their customer service is sub par.

    Gunwerks new rangefinder ??

    Re: Gunwerks new rangefinder ?? Is anyone on these boards from G7? I've been emailing to find out if a mil version will be offered, but they won't respond. On one hand I think to myself, well they maybe don't want to let the cat out of the bag on the mil version until they get the existing...

    Gseven rangefinder?

    My Leica just isn't gettting the job done now that I'm shooting beyond 1000. When shooting targets, I'm getting by OK by using GPS. I'm in the market for a new rangefinder. I've thought about Vectronix, but I don't like the price. I've been reading reviews on the G7 and it sounds like just...

    realistic Expectations 338 LM

    Re: realistic Expectations 338 LM I agree 100%, I think 1.5 moa should be what you strive to shoot within. Any worse and I would start to worry, much better and I would start to challenge myself more. I try to focus on cold bore accuracy, using groups to help determine if my load, rifle...

    Re: SAVAGE 338LM 1650,1820 AND 2050 YARDS!!! Awesome video, I almost bought one of those rifles, but there were no reviews out on them when I was in the market. Great shooting. Do you ever experience problems with ejection or feeding? The savage rifles I own have problems feeding from...
