    Gunsmithing Newb duracoat question

    Re: Newb duracoat question "Duracoat is crap". O.k. Fill me in on exactly what formed this opinion. Generalizations about any product don't do much to help others make an informed decision.

    Gunsmithing Newb duracoat question

    Re: Newb duracoat question That is great.. a self contained sprayer. Probably worlds improved over a spray can nozzle that flicks little globs of paint when you least expect it. How long is the Duracoat good for once mixed? How long will the propellant last in the sprayer? Also, is the...

    Manly diaper bags

    Re: Manly diaper bags Another, not so tacticool, option is the courier type bags from Timbuk 2. All kinds of sizes, and you can actually have them build one in any color combo you want. http://www.timbuk2.com/tb2/

    Gunsmithing Newb duracoat question

    Re: Newb duracoat question Trigger Monkey, As you stated, Duracoat is your thing. Do you have any experience with Cerakote. Particularly, the air cure stuff. I have also looked at Brownells Aluma-hyde. I want to delve into a dedicated finish, just wanted some firsthand knowledge. I have...

    Advanced Marksmanship How many people here "snap in"?

    Re: How many people here "snap in"? It is SO boring! When I shot service rifle, I spent alot of time dry firing. Especially offhand. Snapping in and doing holding exercises with a 15lb AR was key to picking up points. It is more a mental exercise, especially if you are trying to practice...

    Manly diaper bags

    Re: Manly diaper bags My buddy has a Maxpedition shoulder bag. Not a really big one. Able to carry a 1 liter Nalgene, formula for the kid and a couple of spare diapers/clothes change. Also has room for a full size M&P. Well made and versatile. He will still be using it when the child is...

    Forster 6.5x47 seater die for 6.5 Creedmoor?

    Re: Forster 6.5x47 seater die for 6.5 Creedmoor? Thank you Rob, I have done enough reading on the forum, especially posts by you and other active competitors shooting the 6.5 Creedmoor that I will go with the Hornady dies. And, I usually observe that when fellow Hiders are not posting a...

    Forster 6.5x47 seater die for 6.5 Creedmoor?

    Re: Forster 6.5x47 seater die for 6.5 Creedmoor? I know the Creedmoor case is .030" longer, but the shoulder is 30 degree and the necks are almost the same length. Is there a way to setup a 6.5x47 seating die to work with the 6.5 Creedmoor case?

    Forster 6.5x47 seater die for 6.5 Creedmoor?

    I just picked up a new rifle and along with it a new caliber: 6.5 Creedmoor. The general consensus seems to be that the factory Hornady die sets are perfect for this cartridge. However, I prefer the Forster seaters used for other calibers. The rub, no forster seaters for the Creedmoor. Will a...

    Re: Sako TRG / KRG Custom comb Hey D, that is some very nice work... I have been putting of doing something similar to a Savage 12 Palma stock to improve the ergo's. Nice idea and thanks for the pics. I'd be in for a thumb screw, I have a stock inbound and I would like as solid a setup as...

    Scope stand for HP

    Re: Scope stand for HP Ok Vette, here goes... this is my first attempt at posting a pic. This is what the stand looks like: With about 4 years of use, I do not think that you really could add the weight below the stand due to clearance problems. I thought about using a soft SCUBA or soft...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Desert eagle .44?

    Re: Desert eagle .44? Niles Coyote summed it up perfectly. These are just fun to shoot. Lots of noise, fun muzzle flash with minimal recoil while shooting full power loads. The best use I found with mine was to fire a few rounds to scare away the guys shooting their snubby .357s next to me...

    Scope stand for HP

    Re: Scope stand for HP I have a Ray Vin. The f-class model. I purchased it exclusively due to the prodigious amount of offset that it can provide the scope. You will have to find one used. I do not think Creedmoor Sports is making the f-class base, just the tripod version. The offset feature...

    F T/R Competition Thinking of a new shooting mat

    Re: Thinking of a new shooting mat http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthre...284#Post3077284 I really like the largest of the Midway mats, especially for f-class. I thought it initially kinda cheap, compared to other position shooting mats from creedmoor sports. It doesn't have the most...

    Re: 8-32 or 6-24 Sightron SIII....??? calling4life, That's great to hear, and something that Sightron has made clear to the shooting community. I guess I just wish that a new scope wasn't having issues. The floaters are mainly a distraction. Adjustments, parralax adjustment, and glass...

    Rifle Scopes 8-32 or 6-24 Sightron SIII....???

    Re: 8-32 or 6-24 Sightron SIII....??? I bought a 8-32 with 1/8min dot and 1/8min adjustments. This is for known distance paper punching: F-TR and prone shooting. As such, this is a specialized scope for the above purpose. The glass on my scope is clear and usable to the 32x. During matches I...
