    Hunting & Fishing Sons 1st deer

    Re: Sons 1st deer Thats great!! We have to wait until our kids are 12 here, which sucks, by then they are in sports and other stuff that really cuts down on the time we can spend in the field. You guys are going to have a lot of great memories, congratulations!

    .308 Win. A.I. Cartridge

    Re: .308 Win. A.I. Cartridge I have a .243 AI, a .257 AI, and a .220 Swift AI. There is obviously velocity gain with all three. Wear and tear on the brass is greatly reduced. There is a lot of good things about AI cases. I personally think that the only real gain with a .308 AI would be...

    Suppressors H&K sites

    I have an H&K .40 compact that I bought shortly after they came out. I love the gun, but it is way past time for a site upgrade. Mine has fixed sights, I would like to put night sites on it. Who makes the best ones?

    Gunsmithing Remington .700 .222 mag facelift

    Re: Remington .700 .222 mag facelift I hope so...I've got 2 that GAP did for me, bake on I assume. I use one of them almost daily and it is holding up well. I guess time well tell. I would love some feedback on that if anyone else is using it. Might be a good thread to start.

    Gunsmithing Remington .700 .222 mag facelift

    Re: Remington .700 .222 mag facelift That is correct, I think that it needs the 5 days before you go using the weapon. Time will tell if it holds up to the abuse that some of my stuff takes.

    new member need advice

    Re: new member need advice The advantage with buying a .308 in anything in my mind is longevity. You can put a lot of rounds down the pipe before you wear it out. Way less noise and recoil than you .270, I'm not dogging that round, it is one of the best. If you buy a factory rifle your...

    new member need advice

    Re: new member need advice Welcome to the Hide! I'm not familiar with the optics that you are using, but to shot anything consisstantly @500 you are going to need some sort of a tactical scope, and of course a drop chart. The other key item needed is a bullet with a high b.c. Berger is...

    Gunsmithing Remington .700 .222 mag facelift

    Re: Remington .700 .222 mag facelift You can handle the parts after about 5 hours. I've been waiting about 24 hours before I reassemble the weapon, just to make sure its good and cured.

    Rifle Scopes Total Newbie Scope Question

    Re: Total Newbie Scope Question I'm not familiar with that scope, but is it holding it's point of impact? If you adjust the scope for a long range shot, is it returning to 0 after you adjust it back? I wouldn't think that you should be hearing anything moving in the scope. If something...

    Re: Squrriels '09........ We don't have a season here, that I'm aware of, I wish we did. I noticed this evening that they are eating my apples. Hmmm the .308 maybe a little loud and maybe over kill!!

    Range Report My first time ever shooting a bolt gun PICS ADDED

    Re: My first time ever shooting a bolt gun 3/4 MOA on a new rifle with a new shooter is nothing to be pissed about in my mind, I smell some serious potential in the rifle and your ability. Proper rifle cleaning habits, good reloads, and trigger time should shrink those groups considerably...

    Wolf Primers

    Re: Wolf Primers I ran into the same problem, the only difference that I found was I got between 20 and 30 FPS velocity gain with the same powder charge. To be honest I have had no problems with wolf primers.

    Re: Anyone ever seen had problem Rem700? That's a little harsh!! I hadn't seen this before either, fact is I never even thought about being an issue. We messed around with my buddies gun for an hour before I even realized what the problem was. His was in a wood laminated stock as well, I...

    Gunsmithing Anyone ever seen had problem Rem700?

    Re: Anyone ever seen had problem Rem700? This same thing just happened to a friend of mine on a long action. I was unaware of this as well, but you need to be careful when buy these actions. If they are designed for a clip then thats what you have to use. As far as I know you wont be able...
