    Best or favorite .17HMR's?

    Re: Best or favorite .17HMR's? I have a 93R17 BV that I really like. It was between Savage and CZ when I picked mine up, but they didn't have a CZ with a heavy barrel and wide forearm so I went with the Savage. So far I haven't been disappointed.

    Sunglasses

    Re: Sunglasses The guy I work with really likes his Flak Jackets. I like the Gascans that I have. I would add that the only reason I'd spend big money on Oakleys is for the polarized lenses.

    Gunsmithing Major Faux Pas - how would you fix this?

    Re: Major Faux Pas - how would you fix this? I think you'd have a hard time getting the solder to bond without a shitload of flux. Other than that, I don't have much advice to offer

    Re: New guy here Well since I have to work tomorrow, I skipped a party and took the time to polish the firing pin and extractors for something to do. I didn't do the inside of the back half of the bolt, mostly because I couldn't find any brushes for the drill press or my entire dremel kit...

    Re: New guy here I've tried a few and it's seems to like Hornady 17gr vmax's the best between Remington, Hornady and CCI. I found an article on polishing the action and removing tool marks, so I'll look into that in the next little while too. Thanks again for the tips and help.

    Re: New guy here I believe that. All AR based platforms and most other "black" rifles are restricted in Canada. It essentially means we need a special license just to own them, and they can only be used at a range.

    Re: New guy here Thanks for the help so quick. It's got the accutrigger (which I really like) and a bull barrel that's freefloated. I'm really happy with the rifle/cartridge, but it's obviously nothing compared to some the setups on here. I'd like to try polish the bolt a bit to see if...

    Hi, I've had my PAL for a couple years and finally got around to picking up the standard farm shotguns and and small caliber rifles. This is just a Savage 93BV in .17hmr with a Cabela's brand 3-12x40 tactical scope and Rock Mountain bipod. The best I've managed is a 1.5" 3 shot group at 100yds...
