    Doublestar M4

    Re: Doublestar M4 I have one that I got from CMMG in a bargain bin deal a couple years ago. It is a solid rifle and shoots great. It has a non chrome lined barrel, which doesn't bother me for what I use the rifle for, hunting. I think for the price they are hard to beat. When I got it, it...

    Carrying extra ammo in the field...

    I have been looking for a way to carry extra ammo for my bolt action rifles while in the field that would not be as noisy as the plastic MTM ammo boxes. I have heard of people using the plastic inserts that Federal uses in their packaging, or the ammo wallets / rolls. I was thinking of trying to...

    Range Report Distance of a ricochet ????

    Re: Distance of a ricochet ???? Interesting topic. Like the other reply, there are so many variables it would be hard to say. When I was at Fort Sill, OK many moons ago, we were shooting a M-60 at some old armor and had a tracer ricochet and I swear to god it left the state. It glanced off...

    adjusting a Remington 788 trigger

    Re: adjusting a Remington 788 trigger It can be done but takes more work than say a 700 trigger or something like that. Your best bet is a Timney, and have a good gunsmith put it in and test it for you. http://www.timneytriggers.com/sunshop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=39

    Hard case for two scoped rifles?

    I am looking to upgrade rifles cases over the cheap case I have been using for years. I would like to be able to carry my .223 and .308 in the same case if possible, as they usually travel together. I was looking at some Pelican cases and found the 1750 to be long enough to fit both rifles, but...

    Anyone use ALUMA-HYDE II? Need some pics please.

    Re: Anyone use ALUMA-HYDE II? Need some pics pleas This is my Bushmaster, done in Coyote. You can see where the cases have chipped the finish off the brass deflector, but other than that, it has been pretty durable for me. On a side note, I got a rifle from a buddy a while back that had been...

    Funky marks on primers?

    I went shooting last week with a buddy that was using a POF piston rifle. He gave me a bunch of brass that he had fired that day. When I got home and was looking at them noticed the primers had a funky mark on them. As you can see in the pics, they have the normal dimple from the firing pin, but...

    Where to start?

    I guess that is a bit misleading, as I have been shooting for many years, and have done some longer range shooting before, si I am not a total newb. I am really getting into the long range stuff and want to learn more. After reading some threads here, I realize I need to push a little harder and...

    Range Report Data generating programs

    Big time newb questions here, so I apologize if they have been asked before. I tried a search and didn't find exact answers, so I figured a new post would be ok. I am curious about the data generated by the different programs out there. Is it supposed to be dead on, or more of a "suggestion"...

    6.5x55 swede info

    Re: 6.5x55 swede info Just a quick thought, and maybe I missed it in the replies above, but if you are going to scope a Swede, I think you need to tweak the bolt handle or it will hit the scope. I wish I had kept my Swedish Mauser, it was a great rifle.

    Want to see how well your rifle really shoots?

    Re: Want to see how well your rifle really shoots? Thanks for the clarification. I was trying to process the concept this morning before the grey matter had kicked in for the day, and could not get a mental picture of this, but after reading your response I get it now. For some reason I was...

    Want to see how well your rifle really shoots?

    Re: Want to see how well your rifle really shoots? I read the post, then re-read it and maybe I am missing something, but if you aim with a 300 yard hold, won't the bullet drop off the paper at 600 yards? Now I maybe thinking in the wrong direction, and I have not had my coffee yet this...
