    338 Lapua caliber bolt action rifle? Or . . .

    Re: 338 Lapua caliber bolt action rifle? Or . . . Those are some interesting questions I'm hoping to have answered too. I'm just starting a build in .338LM, but it all depends on how far you want to shoot. I've been able to hit silhouette steel at 1200 using a .308, a 1:10 twist barrel and...

    .338 Norma Mag recoil?

    Re: .338 Norma Mag recoil? The recoil will tear your shoulder off at the socket, and if you don't close one eye, the other one will pop out.

    Buy once cry once: Totally disagree

    Re: Buy once cry once: Totally disagree I can be one to vouch for learning "buy one, cry once" the hard way. Having spent hundreds, if not thousands on lower end parts, systems, gear, optics that I could have saved and just bought what I wanted the first time. I can say with near 100%...

    Is Botach a good to go Company ?

    Re: Is Botach a good to go Company ? I've had a handful of bad experiences, but lately, in the last few months, they are top notch. The last 3 orders I have placed were tax free, free shipping, and showed up in the same week.

    A few DIY items I made this week.

    Re: A few DIY items I made this week. Clearly you've done wood working before. If I was asked to build something like that with metal, no problem. If I was asked to build it with wood, it would probably fall apart if you looked at it wrong. Nice work!

    2" Hitch Receiver Mount Shooting Bench

    Re: 2" Hitch Receiver Mount Shooting Bench Oh wait I see the confusion. The bench swings out and points straight back. I just had it to the side for the picture, and not to scare the neighbors.

    2" Hitch Receiver Mount Shooting Bench

    Lately I've been shooting from prone trying to get a load worked up, but our range is on a slope so I have a lot of trouble getting up and down while laying in mud to make the shot. So firstly I used my old motorcycle dolly, and a bit of ingenuity. On top of that I found a piece of pipe...

    Wanna get lean? Eat fat.

    Re: Wanna get lean? Eat fat. Your writing or can you provide a citation? Mostly I agree, its not fat that actually makes people fat. A lot of things in fitness are counter-intuitive. But fat is inherently high in calories, and THAT makes people fat. A regular diet should include a good...

    Re: Getting tired after eating Based on all of those foods you listed, what you are describing is completely normal and nothing to be alarmed about. It is a common reaction and varies among individuals. What you are experiencing is a combination of blood being diverted away from peripheral...

    Bipod height/length opinion

    Re: Bipod height/length opinion I started with a 9-13, it was far too long. I switched to a 6-9 and dropped the 9-13 on my SPR.
