    Rifle Scopes Scope Base Keeps Loosening, Please Help

    Could be an issue like in the pics. Its a Warne 20moa rail sitting on a older Savage 110. You can see the light through the base to action fitup. This is why its getting bedded like the other guys here said. I doubt it if these screws would ever stay tight without bedding the rail. "][/URL] "][/URL]

    Advanced Marksmanship To bed or not to Bed???

    Damn Graham...wish you told me about that prior to my second marriage! :) well, after a pain staking 2 trips to the range... My second barrel is burned out!LOL! I sent 2800, so, she's done. Bedding did help, but right at the end. Talked to Shilen, they said sell the barrel as a good varmint...

    Lube the inside of case necks when resizing?

    Seriously, if the expander is putting"feeling" like extra drag, then lube the inside of the necks. If you use a bushing type neck sizer, no need to use the expander button. You would be getting proper neck sizing and neck tension on the bullet with just the bushing, without lube. If your using...

    What do you consider the most essential gear for ELR?

    Electronics are cool and great to aid in LRS, but get use to manual ranging. Use your reticle, learn it. I think its fun to go out and just do the math in my head and range. Usually I'll bring out my range finder and double check my math. I've been estimating the height of an object close to the...

    Advanced Marksmanship To bed or not to Bed???

    Good one Graham! Thats funny! So true. Gonna get back out tomorrow and play a bit more. The scope is dialed in now, so I wont change it between groups. I have a few in small increments and a few sets in major jumps. Just if I could find someone with Berger 40gr's in stock. On a few waiting lists...

    Advanced Marksmanship To bed or not to Bed???

    I got ya. I did torque, so now it will be a constant from here on out. From here...would it be best to adjust the seat depth up and down by .005" increments? All were shot with the same charge, 26gr IMR-4064, but I did adjust the elevation after the first 5 shot group and a time or two there...

    Savage guys??? Which savage to buy??

    I have the Mod 12 chambered in 204. Burned the barrel out within a year or so(I shoot A LOT!). Trust me, plenty of dead sage rats in ID. :) Mounted a select match Shilen, and never looked back. love it!

    Advanced Marksmanship To bed or not to Bed???

    Here we go.... I got results I was NOT expecting! I bedded the stock, measured and found my recoil lug had 1/16" clearance prior to bedding. So every shot prior was stressing the action screws 100%. Thanks Savage for a great stock! lol. After bedding, my groups reversed. Prior to bedding...

    Advanced Marksmanship Whose has the best Snipers?

    Who has the best snipers? UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!! That's who! And yeah, Recon BF4 is the way to play. Those pilots hate Recon guys painting them constantly through out each match! They get pissed.lol. COD games are just run and gun games. Also, to all who have served, Thank you! I have...

    Advanced Marksmanship To bed or not to Bed???

    Thanks Eastbay for the input... I bedded last night with JB and mink oil (for my leather holsters and boots) as a release which worked beautiful! A few spots are not the best, but solid where it counts. Off to the range tomorrow! I'll post up pics at 200yds this time. 100 is too close to really...

    Savage guys??? Which savage to buy??

    thats good powder for the 243. Savage doesn't look to "looks" as much as machining and accuracy. They tend to cater towards internal perfection. :)

    Is this cheating? Or lazy? Or insulting?

    Hey guys.... my son said this!!! In Halo 4, X-Box game....Master Chief. The so called master soldier, called out to save everybody. He is OLD SCHOOL! Its funny, because even in the game, they always turn to the old veteran to save their ass! funny, even in a game, they just want an old school...

    Cool Thanks Eastbay. I know some people have said bedding made things worse, but I know how to do it correctly. Here are a couple more pics of what I'm dealing with. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByEWxiYnTAEBWmxTV204SHlBc3c/edit?usp=sharing...

    Advanced Marksmanship To bed or not to Bed???

    I've got a Savage Model 12(new model) Short Action, 204 Ruger. She came with the bull barrel, since been replaced with a Shilen Select Match, 28" 9 twist. The stock is "stock". this is my main question here. The stock IS NOT BEDDED, yet. As far as I can tell myself, I'm holding position the...

    Is this cheating? Or lazy? Or insulting?

    Armyjerry, i hear ya. EMP, its toast! It is cool!!! It would be fun to play with. Got to show my boy this video. However; I love my MilRad/MilDot optics. A static reticle and math will never leave you hanging. I was at the range a couple hours ago and dialed back to 10x. My reticle read 2...

    Savage guys??? Which savage to buy??

    A local pawn show or gun show should have a Savage 110 action or similar model for under $300 in great shape. This is the way i have gone on my 204(mod 12), 6.5(mod 110) and now my 338(mod 110LA) current build. Like chemist said, pick out an action with the bolt face of your liking. Like Kevin...
