    Powder from container to scale

    What is your method for getting powder onto the scale? Non-automated. The only thing I've witnessed was a small pyrex dish with a half cup or so of powder. A tablespoon plastic measuring spoon to get close. Bumping along the way to see if the scale will begin to rise. Then a trickler to get...

    How would you develop a load for two rifles?

    Re: How would you develop a load for two rifles? Hes getting 1.5" or so out of factory loads so was hoping to beat that. He would probably only be looking to shoot 200 where I'm going to take my rifle out a bunch further.

    Rifle Scopes What does a $1k plus scope get me over $300 NIKON

    Re: What does a $1k plus scope get me over $300 NIKON The glass on the Nikon are decent. The Buckmaster has a terrible field of view so if you plan to do any hunting hopefully you won't have to look around very hard. Customer service is terrible but I've owned 8 or so Nikon products without...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot

    Re: Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot The FFP costs quite a bit the illumination as well. My understanding was that the glass is the same. You get a larger zoom range. I believe the PST uses the same type turrents and zero stops. You are getting very close to the PST quality for the $400...

    How would you develop a load for two rifles?

    I'm shooting a LTR .308 and my dad is shooting a model 11 sporter weight savage. How would you go about testing/developing a load that worked or just say forget it and buy a second set of dies and start from scratch with the second rifle.

    So what would you do if some ammo went kaboom?

    Re: So what would you do if some ammo went kaboom? There this a local shop here that sells their "custom reloaded" ammo, so I walked up to the counter and asked. If your ammo blows up my Kimber do you stand behind it. They didnt' have an answer so I bought factory loads. I think you are...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Crossfire 6-24 x 50.... issue.

    Re: Vortex Crossfire 6-24 x 50.... issue. You have a real decent rifle why not opt to put a bit better glass on it? I'm sure vortex would consider allowing you to upgrade. There is a reason the scope is $100...

    Rifle Scopes DSLR through scope

    What are some of ya'll doing to take high resolution pictures through your scopes? I can get a half decent picture through the scope using my crappy camera phone but can never seem to get a decent picture with my Digital Rebel.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot

    Re: Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot I thought the magnification ring was stiffer than it needed to be. The turrents on the scope are impressive. The scope does have your standard 5,6,7...15 on the mag ring not the 3x and 2x markings.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot

    Re: Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 Mil-Dot Seemed a bit clearer than the SS 3-9 and very manageable didn't have a terrible mirage even at 15x at 90 degrees today.

    Remington 700 vs Stevens 200

    Re: Remington 700 vs Stevens 200 I would start with an SPS-tactical as mentioned above. The stevens should come in 1 in 9 but the sps varmint will come 1 in 12. While the stock and trigger on the sps-tactical leave plenty to be desired there are many more readily available after market...
