    .308 barrel selection

    Re: .308 barrel selection 16" tube will shoot past 800m just won't be as accurate due to sub sonic velocity. If your range time is spent at this distance than you should look at 22" - 26" inch barrels. If you do need it for close quarters/home defense then a 20" might be a fair balance...

    Any thoughts on Kimber 8400?

    Re: Any thoughts on Kimber 8400? I haven't owned a 8400 tactical but I did own a 8400 in 300 WSM. Beautiful rifle, handled great, sweet trigger, but couldn't put a decent group on paper. I bought the rifle 4 years ago and spent a year trying to find a load that would group one inch or...

    1980s era M1A Super Match Price Question

    Re: 1980s era M1A Super Match Price Question Went back by the store, it has serial # 0490XX. I sent an e-mail to SA asking for some background on the gun. I'm heading there tomorrow to buy it unless I talk myself out of it which I doubt. Who makes the best scope mount for this rig?
