    Brought this home at the weekend......

    Re: Brought this home at the weekend...... Great looking piece! These old snipers are a joy to own and shoot. I have an M1D and it is one of my favorites. I happened to meet an older gentleman at a recent match at Butner, NC. He has written a pile of articles for Precision Shooting...

    What does everyone think of Redding Dies?

    Re: What does everyone think of Redding Dies? Redding dies are the best screw-in dies available. Sure, there are many cheaper alternatives. Same argument as to why Badger rings vs. Weavers?...they both hold a scope on a rifle, so why would I foolishly pay an extra $100? Use a set of...

    shooting mat

    Re: shooting mat Midway's new mat is much bigger than the old one. Quality is very good. I use mine for F-Class and at the farm. Got it at the $50 intro price. It's too big to hump, though. AG

    When do you clean your rifle barrel.

    Re: When do you clean your rifle barrel. For a little anecdotal evidence: My son and I shot a F-Class match at Butner 2 weekends ago that we refer to as the Fall 600yd. Weekend, ie: 8 matches each at 22 rds. per at 600. He and I both shot the same rifle all weekend without cleaning. I...

    Thumbler Model B + 5lbs SS media = how many .308?

    Re: Thumbler Model B + 5lbs SS media = how many .308? Just pour a little LemiShine in. It's not Rocket Surgery. The precise measure is to get the most batches from one bottle. At $3.99 locally, it's the cheapest part of the process, aside from the water.

    Whats your favorite load for long range .308?

    Re: Whats your favorite load for long range .308? 45.0 Varget/Lapua brass/Fed 210M/175 SMK. 2830 fps. from my 30" Broughton. The reason people like 4064 is that it is a terrific powder...people like Varget because it is basically temperature controlled 4064, therefore terrific +.

    Sig Mosquito

    Re: Sig Mosquito I have both the Sig Mosquito and the P22. The Sig (mine) is 100% with premium HV like CCI Mini-Mags. With bulk HV, not so much. It is accurate enough but it is a plinker/trainer, not a match piece. I got it because it is set up like my 226 for familiarity reasons. Also...

    Why so few 3 lug custom actions?

    Re: Why so few 3 lug custom actions? I have the TRG, the Barnard, and the RPA. Love them all over my Rems. The RPA may be harder to lift because of the compressed Belleville washers used instead of a coil firing pin spring. I think the Barnard is the tightest feeling of the ones named...

    HS Precision vs McMillan

    Re: HS Precision vs McMillan I like the bolt-on aspect of the HS with the bedding block. No bedding, no pillars. That said, I have a McM A2, F-Prone, and a Prone that I love. AG

    My home made steel target.....FAIL

    Re: My home made steel target.....FAIL When I was teaching shop class at my local high school I made a dueling post out of scrap 1/4" and some rebar and pipe. Was made with the intention of using it for .22 plinking. Got the bright idea of "really making it spin", so I plugged away at it...
