    hydro dip

    My guy paints the part after he's done with the prep work. The dips have some translucent areas, so in order to make the particular pattern look good he applies a color that helps the dip look better. He also uses automotive grade clear coat for extra durability.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex HS-T 4-16x44 Thoughts and other alternatives.

    I believe PST line and HS-T share the same glass. I had an earlier version of the HS-T and thought it was a great scope for the money. Turrets were great and had zero stops.

    Semi Auto Rifle Lubricants

    Been using Froglube for a couple years. Used it from 100 degree days to 15 below zero. Never had an issue.

    Rock River Arms 7.62x51 rifles. Much needed improvements ASAP!

    And elfster if you have a LMT why in the heck would you want a RRA? That's a down grade brother!

    Rock River Arms 7.62x51 rifles. Much needed improvements ASAP!

    I guarantee you that RRA will not undergo a design change just to allow Pmags. If.....yes if they stop selling, they will discontinue that line. Just as they did for their 1911's. Im here to tell you they still cant keep up with demand. I'm not sure why all the hate for their current polymer...

    Rock River Arms 7.62x51 rifles. Much needed improvements ASAP!

    Yes the LAR-8 rifles are frigging heavy! They are no longer having feeding issues since they went to the polymer mags. They shoot pretty damn good for the price of entry! They are not going to redesign the entire platform since they do really well with what they have. I do agree they need to...

    hydro dip

    I just had a stock professionally dipped. He went through the entire process with me. There is a lot involved in making a lasting dip. I cannot imagine a home dip kit could even come close.

    Hunting & Fishing 223 rounds for yotes

    Going to look for some v max rounds and what ever else I can round up. Out here in BFE where I live anything other than 55 fmj is a long shot! Have to travel 1.5 hrs to Scheels or Bass Pro for any selection.

    Hunting & Fishing 223 rounds for yotes

    Picked up a RRA ATH for coyote hunting. Trying to decide on what rounds to try out. What are you guys using? Not too concerned with pelt damage just want to drop em. I just switched from a 308 to 223 for a lighter rifle. The rifle has an 18 inch 1 / 8 twist match grade barrel. I don't reload...

    Hunting & Fishing Kids Fishing Reel/Rod...Spincast

    Both my daughter's use Zebco 202's. Never have we had an issue with them. I would stray away from the cheap barbie type stuff though. My oldest got a Wally world barbie pole special when she was 2. Broke it within hours of opening it. Got her a 202 reel and an ultra light rod. Been using it...

    Hunting & Fishing Spring Turkey 2014

    Illinois here. Can't wait to get back at it! Probably heading down to Missouri myself this year along with Illinois. I shot my first 2 turkeys last year in Nebraska. A Merriams and Rio. I need an Eastern fan on the wall now. I shoot a Mossberg 935.

    RRA R3 Competition 556

    Stopped into RRA this afternoon. Be on the lookout for their new 458 Beast. Bad ass to say the least! Got my rifle length advanced half quad and picked up a BCM large latch charging handle. Much easier to use with a scope.

    RRA R3 Competition 556

    I'm going into RRA tomorrow to pick up a rifle length advanced half quad to swap out with the mid length. I'll post up some pics when I get the scope and Atlas installed. Can't wait to get out and shoot this rifle.

    I got that same scope mount elfster. I really like LaRue stuff!

    RRA R3 Competition 556

    Thanks cadaverdog but I'm not looking to mount the hubble on it. This is strictly a lightweight yote ventilator. 3-9 with the ballistic fire dot should be a kick ass setup.

    RRA R3 Competition 556

    ATH is inbound. I knew I shouldn't have went looking around! I think I'm going to put a Leupold VX-R 3-9X40 on it. Ultimate yipper tipper.

    Hunting & Fishing Won $200 in my first coyote tournament!

    Pretty happy with the turnout! A buddy and I took home some cash and NWTF memberships. Neither of us have really went hunting for coyotes. We've shot em deer and turkey hunting but that's about it. I picked me up a Foxpro Wildfire 2 and a Mojo Critter decoy. First 2 sets Friday afternoon...

    RRA R3 Competition 556

    I think I like the ATH a bit more. Going to compare the 2 this weekend. Yes that's a hell of a good price, only this weekend though. I doubt I'm going to jump on this. I just ordered a new scope yesterday that is just shy of the price of this rifle. I can get them even cheaper from RRA with my...
