    AR build, got a few questions

    Re: AR build, got a few questions Take the middle ground if it is an option and go 1-8" twist. It will accomodate a wide variety of bullets from lights to moderate heavies. I've had good loadings with 40-55 gr. bullets in mine and have friends getting good results in the 60-70's range. I...

    Intro to Barbeque, or barbeque for newbs

    Re: Intro to Barbeque, or barbeque for newbs Never thought to finish it in foil wrap looks like a good idea. I just did a boston butt the other weekend and injected it thoroughly with plain old apple juice then rubbed it down heavy and let it sit for 24 hrs in the fridge. I put it out to...

    Re: some gel tests .17hmr, .22lr , .22mag <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Carter Mayfield</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Interesting. The V-max in the 17HMR just looks like it fragments to bits. For varmint hunting, that is the desired effect. For...

    Bi-pod height ?

    Re: Bi-pod height ? I use a 9"-13" swivel leg notched with pod lock for vamint hunting. I rarely shoot off a bench and I am a little thick around the middle and chest. I rarely find that I can use something shorter than 9" due to grass and rocks in the line of sight. I actually shot a...

    Fieldcraft Mil-Dot estimation Challenge

    Re: Crow Tried to mil the crow on the right guessing him to be 20" from base of beak to start of tail, but thinking back that still would't add up. My first thought was 185yds using the upright post on the box as a 4"x4" post and a .6 mil size. I should've stuck with my first instincts . My...

    Who's running varget in a 243?

    Re: Who's running varget in a 243? If you've got a 1-10" twist, you'll probably find several good loads with bullets in the 65-75gr range and maybe even some a little lighter. Buddy of mine has a Cooper Pheonix in 243 with the same twist and it'll shoot anything he loads in it within that...

    Re: Your a Zombie if... Had to put a bucket by my chair to catch the drool because of the outfit changing girl. Love the zebra stripes and pink tube dress. It's funny how you can put nipples on two 5lb sacks of fat and it'll turn your brains to mush, .

    Who's running varget in a 243?

    Re: Who's running varget in a 243? Using 40gr. of Varget in Lapua neck sized cases, with Nosler 70gr. ballistic tips with CCI LRM primers and chrono was 3453fps average. Rifle is Remington 700 SPS Varmint with factory 26" barrel and I think it is a 9 1/8" twist. It's my gopher getter. I was...

    700 SPS Varmint Stock

    Re: 700 SPS Varmint Stock I went the bedding route with mine with steel bars in the forearm when I got less than desirable results and couldn't afford my B&C stock yet. It cost me about $25 to do myself and took several evenings to do. It got me by for 2 years then I bought the B&C A2...

    Fieldcraft Kiss item you made

    Re: Kiss item you made I forgot my rear bag on a varmint hunt and used my binos for a rear pod. Not as nice as my new accushot, but worked that day. Put the capped objective lenses on the ground and rested the bottom of the buttstock between the eye cups. Just move it forward or back to...

    Fieldcraft Kiss item you made

    Re: Kiss item you made Made a brass catcher out of my boonie hat while varminting. Put the inside of the hat dome next to the ejection port on the AR. Wrap the chin strap under the mag well and hook over the elevation target turret of my scope. Cinch to the desired fit and shoot. Great for...
