    My, How Tacticool Is That? (Poor Wittle Patrol Rifle)

    I'm more concerned he didn't clear the weapon; but, hopefully he just pops a tiny sun roof in his car, and not in some schoolgirl with a backpack on.

    Steel cracking?

    Even without cracks I wouldn't shoot steel at 10 yards... Maybe I'm a nervous Nancy...

    Maggie’s Opinions on a G-1 (USMC/USN Leather Flight Jacket)

    Hey guys. Years ago I had a (LL Bean made) A-1 that was really great. I even machine washed it a couple times. Then, when I was riding, I had Schott make me a beautiful jacket in horse hide, as it is the traditional hide for the originals. I still wear it often, and afer ten plus years of...

    Rifle Scopes No love for IOR Valdada?

    Don't I know it! Even the Nikon sport optics are not great (good however) and the Canon glass is far superior to the Nikon ED glass (I don't know if Nikon uses their ED glass in sport optics). I WISH Canon would get into sport optics, even if just binoculars. Edge to edge clarity, detail...

    Gunsmithing Need new calipers

    Mitutoyo mechanical and a cheap-ass digital from Harbour Freight for me. Avoid the mechanical HF calipers, as I have been through five or so in two years. I use them on the lathe for rough measurements making tooling etc. They are crap. Tightening the rack helped some, but one of them had a...

    Waterproof warm jacket/pant

    Here's some Canada Goose links. Note the Snow Mantra is sold out at the moment, but some retailers may have one (if it's not too warm for you). It's a good fitting coat that gets better as it breaks in, like a good leather jacket does. Also, sinching up the waist cord gives a better fit and good...

    Rifle Scopes No love for IOR Valdada?

    Once upon a time they were great. Made in Romania. I hope the above rumor regarding Japan is true. And, by the way, as a former photographer, I've compared Canon Florite glass to the coveted German makers lenses... Sorry Germany. But I've read the many mechanical failure reports on the...

    Which primer in lieu of Federal Match?

    I've had good luck with these as well. They fire Varget as well as the Federals in my (last) gun.

    Yeah. Forgive me if I don't hold my breath waiting.

    Secret Society

    I think "loosing" them is just as bad as a domestic conspiracy charge... Out of the frying pan, into the fire- but either way, someone needs to burn.

    Member Link Up Connecticut: is there anybody here with me?

    Newby looking to hand load help.

    I'd start with a box of each and see what your rifle prefers. Everyone likes to shoot three-round "groups" but I consider a group to be ten rounds. Let it heat up as that can affect the groupings and a tight three round group may become a wide ten-round one and vice-versa.

    Newby looking to hand load help.

    He (and I) are talking .308 rounds... I have no data on .223 or 6.5 creedmore. No desire to load them either. .30-30 would be the other I might consider for hand load, but due to low volume, I probably won't do that either. Look, I'm second generation hand-loader. And it was always supposed to...

    Subscribing! I'm in CT and have good friends in NH. I'm very interested in local longer range matches.

    Hawaii gets Kiss your a$$ goodbye alert.

    Well, apparently someone is getting thrown under the bus in HI so maybe that's the case and they needed someone to blame rather than admit their system is as secure as a Ti 99-4A?
