    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy I'd love to but she probably wouldn't go. My dad (grandfather, 90 this December) goes with me all the time. There were pics of us shooting his father's Army Issued 1911 a while back somewhere around here. We shooting .22's nearly every weekend...

    Gunsmithing Sandblast prep...

    Re: Sandblast prep... Was the paver sand consistent in texture/grit? I thought about just using plain sand too for testing different grits and finishes but when you look at it closely, its no where near uniform. I've settled on the 70 grit if you want a true flat finish. 120 for just about...

    Gunsmithing homemade paint oven (more pics added)

    Re: homemade paint oven (more pics added) I actually had a hard time getting the insulation around here. Perhaps because of the local weather, don't know. The Home depot and Lowes didn't even know what I was talking about. I got a tip to call the HVAC guys and they new exactly what I...

    Gunsmithing Sandblast prep...

    Re: Sandblast prep... Don't want to use glass beads. It won't give the "tooth" needed for the paint to stick well. I use silicon plugs and tape on my jobs to block areas where you don't want to blast. Either way, you will always get grit in places you don't want. Clean the hell out of it...

    Gunsmithing Does the inside of this barrel look right to you?

    Re: Does the inside of this barrel look right to you? Like others have said, if it shoots fin, don't mess with it. My experience with Savages, the shoot better dirty. I chased loads all over the place with my 10FP 308 until I read an article on 6mmbr about a guy not cleaning his 308 and was...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex scopes

    Re: Vortex scopes Quality is pretty damn good on the Viper's. I've had IOR's that looked like crap in terms of assembly vs the Viper's. The IOR glass was better but the knobs, the fit and finish, hell, even the painted numbers looked like crap compared to the Viper's. Quality is just a tad...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex scopes

    Re: Vortex scopes The Razor glass is better but $1000+ better? It depends on what you expect. I've got the normal Viper, PST, Nightforce, and have looked a lot through a Razor. I think you start capping out on returns around $1500 mark but the Razor glass was the best out of those scopes...

    7mm-08 shooters - how accurate is WW brass 4u?

    Re: 7mm-08 shooters - how accurate is WW brass 4u? I've tried Remington 308, Winchester 7mm-08, and Lapua 308. Winchester brass had loose primers at 9 reloads. Remington brass is still good at only 3 reloads. The Lapua has around 10 reloads and still seems like the first reload. I stick...
