    Gunsmithing Is it ok to leave Kroil oil in the rifle's bore?

    Re: Is it ok to leave Kroil oil in the rifle's bore? I clean my rifle after every match,,so that usually equates to about 120 rds with a practice day in there. Every cleaning ends with a wet patch of Kroil, followed by a dry patch. I do it because my bullets told me their asses prefer to...

    Torn Meniscus

    Re: Torn Meniscus Keep your knee moving as much as you can. If it sets too long the scar tissue can build up and you might have to go back on the table. Excercise bike with minimal resitance is great for range of motion. This is definately something you want to be proactive about. I speak...

    Accuracy and repeatability of Giraud Case Trimmer

    Re: Accuracy and repeatability of Giraud Case Trimmer IMO the Giraud is the industry standard. It just don't get any better. Made in the USA, and built to last. Anybody that shoots a high volume of CF rifle catridges should have one. I know at least 15 people personally that have one...

    Competition pistol opinions

    Re: Competition pistol opinions Ya know thats the funny thing...I've always been a 1911 guy, and have had a few pricey customs, but a while back I got a G17 RTF in a trade, and man, that thing just fits. It could definately use a trigger job, but on the 17 I'm not to worried about it because...

    Private Pilots?

    Re: Private Pilots? I personally would not feel comfy flyin only 2 days a month. Flying is a fine motor skill, and like all FMS's its use it or lose it. For me I think you would not retain as much flying only twice a month, and you might find yourself doing lots of review. Just my 0.02. I'm...

    Competition pistol opinions

    Re: Competition pistol opinions This is all exactly what I was lookin for thanks to you all for all the great info. I really agree with ChadTRG42, BobinNC, and G45 on running a modified out the box pistol. I'm leaning heavily toward a G34. My G17 points naturally like my finger, and with a...

    Muzzle brakes and end barrel carbon build up

    Re: Muzzle brakes and end barrel carbon build up Bro, I don't remove the brake to clean it. That brake has seen over 4K rounds, and has only been off twice. Once was to change the barrel. Thats why I swear by Wipeout. If you spray it in through the breech, all the foam will gather in the...

    Muzzle brakes and end barrel carbon build up

    Re: Muzzle brakes and end barrel carbon build up You will encounter the crusty with a brake. No biggie tho. What I have found that works for me is after every match I soak the barrel with Wipeout, shooting it in through the breech, and letting it soak overnight. What got me hooked on...
