    Vais Muzzle Brake

    Re: Vais Muzzle Brake I shoot without A brake now but I have used a Vais brake because it hardly seemed any louder than unbraked rifle(in 308 anyway). I know alot of hunting guides will only allow their clients to use Vais brakes because of the noice factory associated with brakes. However...

    Data Books: How Important?

    Re: Data Books: How Important? I think data books may not be that important for guys who strictly shoot known range targets at formal ranges. But for field work I think its important for sure. I know from field work having a reference to make a coldbore shot at long range a reference of not...

    Best setup for around $1000

    Re: Best setup for around $1000 I would go with a Rem action if you want something to grow into. More aftermarket support and many custom makers still use REm actions. You can buy an entry level Rem Varmint with 20 inch barrel and add scope and rings and start shooting. The Super Sniper scope...

    Help me decide: Rem 700 5R .308 or .300WM?

    Re: Help me decide: Rem 700 5R .308 or .300WM? Don't get the 300WM..........you will be real happy with the 308. Shoot it twice as much for the same money. Plus for training purposes you do have an ammo advantage. For training students I go through tons of plastic ammo.....11 grain projectile...

    Rifle Scopes Quick Release 1 piece 30mm mount for Bolt Gun

    Re: Quick Release 1 piece 30mm mount for Bolt Gun I've looked at those and that may be a way to go. I was hoping for a 2 ring 1 piece setup like made for alot of AR's. But so many of those either are canted forward or back an inch or two for proper eye relief. I want a real heavy duty 1 piece...

    Rifle Scopes The brains behind CS revealed

    Re: The brains behind CS revealed Hey CS must be good.
