    From Varget to 4064

    Finally used a chrono today. I don't remember the actual numbers, but 43.0 of 4064 with 175 SMK's out of my 1:10 20 incher was averaging 2580 fps. Hell of a lot more than I thought it was!

    Rifle Scopes another viper pst goes down from 338 lm

    Guess I'm just lucky my PST doesn't have issues. But it is what it is. A $900.00 scope. I can't really ask it to have a track record, or function like a $2500.00 NF. Havent had one tracking or zero issue, and every day that I use it I'm adjusting for different targets at different ranges. That...

    LOL. Camo job looks great man. I painted My hogue stock with no prep and it looked fine. The more use and wear it got the better it looked

    Trade Setup For Nice Optic?

    The last two scopes in my decision for this current rifle came down to what's on there now, and a SS. I had a cheaper SS fixed 10x back in the day, and it was a great cheap scope. I'm sure I would have been happy with th SS though.

    Trade Setup For Nice Optic?

    Never had the pleasure of using a HDMR, but it is one of those scopes on my long list. The only Bushnell I have used is my Elite Tactical Fixed 10x. Perfect scope for my .22 Savage MkII TR. After seeing the quality of Bushnells $200.00 scope, I can imagine what their $2100.00 optic is like.

    Trade Setup For Nice Optic?

    Just to put it out there I am not saying in anyway that the Vortex that's on there now is unpleasing. I am definitely happy with it. For a $900.00 scope it does great and then some. But after using some NF's and such you can tell the difference

    Trade Setup For Nice Optic?

    The list can get pretty long thinking about optics I would consider. I don't have my mind set on one in particular. I guess I would have to wait untill I seen what anyone would have to offer, then look more into what it is if I was unfamiliar with it

    Trade Setup For Nice Optic?

    Didn't post in for sale section, because I'm only thinking about it and not actually doing it yet. Just curious what others thoughts/advice would be. Been through a few setups over the years, but one thing I have not accomplished yet is having a super good optic. For guys like me (Father of two...

    Rifle Scopes My Vortex 6x24x50 PST... You fellows need to know..

    Weather anybody likes it or not, EVERYTHING breaks. Sure there is such a thing as quality in products, but I doubt that a company would give such a good warranty knowing there product was of poor quality. That definitely doesn't make them the best either. As we all know, the bad stories seem to...

    varget and 308 loads

    44.5 runs well in my 20in tube with 175 SMK's, But I brought it down to 44.0 so I can get more space in my case seated at mag length to fit the Hornady 178gr BTHP & Amax. The Idea was to Interchange between the three so depending on availability I can use what I can get my hands on. All three...

    WHATS THE DIFF???? CCI BR2 Vs. CCI #200 large rifle primers.

    "i have not noticed any difference in performance between match and regular primers, except that I don't have as much money for beer afterwards." EXACTLY

    When do you clean your rifle barrel.

    I use the same stuff and it does work great. If I have to ill use other products along with a nylon brush, and a coated rod so I'm not putting anything into my bore that can harm it. I usually end up cleaning at 400+ rounds on my factory remington .308 barrels when they are new

    From Varget to 4064

    I have not noticed any changes in impact using 4064 with different temperatures.

    McMillan adjustable cheek rests

    Exactly this. My thumb wheel screws come loose every time no matter what after three shots. I started a thread about it recently in the gunsmith section, and there is some really good advice for modifying it to not come loose. But in my opinion, there should be no need to have to modify anything...

    Remington 700 SPS Tactical or Savage Model 10 "T" tactical?

    I have owned Remingtons and I have owned Savages, both in .308 winchester. To make a long story short, I now only own Remingtons with the exception of my mark II TR .22.
