    Surgeon rifle pics

    Re: Surgeon rifle pics Our monthly club centerfire bench rest match was won this past Saturday by a young man using a Surgeon rifle in 6.5x47mm Lapua chambering. In spite of mirage and fickle winds, he managed a 194-4X. The course is 20 shots for score; 10 each at 104 and 228 yards on 100 &...

    Remington 700 SPS tactical...

    Re: Remington 700 SPS tactical... glock24, thank you for the data. I'm actually trying to be in the 2500 ~ 2600 FPS range which seems to be a sweet spot for the 168 grain SMK bullet from all I've been able to find out. I've bookmarked Dan Newberry's OCW page and I'll be studying it ASAP...

    Remington 700 SPS tactical...

    Re: Remington 700 SPS tactical... glock24, what are the loads that shot the last two groups on the right? I'm working on final loads now for my .308 SPS-V using 168 SMK bullets. I've replaced the factory stock with a B&C A2 Medalist Tactical stock. I've narrowed my choices down to 42.5...

    700 SPS Varmint Stock

    Re: 700 SPS Varmint Stock If I were going to bed the factory SPS-V stock, I'd begin by removing the two pressure pads at the tip of the fore end that push upward on the barrel. I've put two of my three SPS-Varmint rifles into B&C A2 Medalist Tactical/Varmint stocks and the consistency of my...

    Take me to school on Remington 700 actions

    Re: Take me to school on Remington 700 actions I <span style="text-decoration: underline">THINK</span> he's asking what changes have been made to the 700 actions over the years and if some years of manufacture are better than others and maybe some years that should be avoided.

    Rifle Scopes Osprey Scopes

    Re: Osprey Scopes Take LoneWolf's advice and buy the Vortex Crossfire OR pay a bit more for the Viper 6.5~20x50 scope with target dot reticle that SWAFA, Camera Land and others are selling for $280. It's a $550 scope being discontinued but still carries the unconditional lifetime warranty. I...

    Rifle Scopes cost of burris nonwarranty scope repair

    Re: cost of burris nonwarranty scope repair Just a guess but if it's out of warranty, it may be cheaper to just buy a new scope. Scopes in 3~9x are probably the common and thus the least expensive. A scope tube bent enough to freeze the power ring may not be salvageable at all.

    WD-40 in gun cases

    Re: WD-40 in gun cases A friend, now deceased, was the liaison for certain missiles maintained at Robins AFB and the end user, the US Navy. He was also one of the top 1911 pistolsmiths in the country. He warned me away from WD-40. It's a great water displacement vehicle but has very poor...
