    rifle vise recomendations

    fwiw, Buy a Wilton Machinist Vise, aka Bullet Vise, and fit a set of 3/4" baltic birch jaw to it. As a matter of fact fit SEVERAL sets of jaws. Take one set and epoxy/glue raw leather, available from Brownells, to each side to avoid scratching anything you clamp in them. I have Wilton Bullet...

    Tac Ops on the Job

    M5, I probably should do just that... That said I have quite a few GA Precision .308s, built by Eric, and I just don't know as I need another. I thought I would give someone the chance to save $800 and avoid waiting 2 years... Your trigger guard IS handsome..IMHO. I will say I have NEVER...

    Tac Ops on the Job

    fwiw, I have a NIB unfired X-Ray 51 that may be availble shortly. Barrel is 22" with supressor cap. Unreal attention to detail... Rifle is complete with Hardigg Storm Case, .034" 3 shot proof group, and even the Tac-Ops T shirt...;-). Too perfect to shoot. Regards, Matt Garrett...

    fwiw, I paid zero duty. My unit was shipped on Monday and I had it on my front porch Wednesday Morning before 11:00 AM. Flat out amazing... Standard two pillar Prazi. Press is a work of industrial art. I think a close friend summed up appropriately. He said it was "Aerospace Quality"...

    Redding 1400XT case trimmer

    20 thousandths case length variance post trim? We are taking different roads to Rome. Case trimming, it should be noted, is not so much an accuracy issue as it as a safety issue. One can affect the other, however, primarily it is to avoid pressure spikes in the throat from forward brass flow...

    Redding 1400XT case trimmer

    Gary, I've never run Redding's Case Trimmer, however, it is not exactly what comes to mind when you think of the ULTIMATE precision case trimmer. All that being said I find it hard to believe you can't manage better than .005" variance. If you had asked I would have suggested a Wilson on a...

    Rifle Scopes Bought a S&B and Im not wow'd

    fwiw, Schmidt Bender did not get where they are by marketing hype... I've heard from many "scope reviewers" who "review" their latest scope by recording their initial impressions of the scope as it was removed from the packaging. I've been involved with this awhile and I've yet to learn...

    Colorado Range Steel Stolen

    fwiw, I've had AR-500 hanging silhouettes stolen from my own property. They were concealed in an end row WELL under the trees. The pathetic part is they took the new AR-500 and left the older stuff with hot spots alone. Here is a Pic and they were stolen from Chesapeake, Virginia should...

    Dominican Republic made EAGLE JUNK!

    Gentlemen, Just a heads up for those, like myself, who have been running older Eagle Industries Nylon. In short it is no longer "Made in USA" and the three units I just received are junk. The zippers bind and build quality has suffered. I put in a $200 order for a few things under...
