    My father had a minor back injury and was recommended by his doctor to use a lead sled to sight in and develop a load for his 300 win mag for an elk hunt. I mentioned this in conversation with a local smith who highly advised against the lead sled use. His reasoning was that each shot...

    New to long distance shooting looking for build help.

    Ask yourself a few questions: 1. Budget 2. Handload or factory ammo 3. Willingness to wait The 30-06 can be a good long range caliber imho, I have one so I might be biased. The ADL (again imho) is not an ideal starting point as it is specifically a hunting configuration. The barrel is a light...

    Rifle Scopes NF mil-spec F1 on a Rem 700SS 5R tactical

    Re: NF mil-spec F1 on a Rem 700SS 5R tactical The NF base in the Mile High link you posted should work well. Not sure about the Mil-Spec F1's but the regular F1's come with NF Ultra Light medium height rings. I have run both the Seekins Vortex low height and the NF UL mediums. With my...

    Re: stock on Winchester M70 The best way to get an answer to this question would be to inquire with the manufacturer of the stock that you are interested in. I bet a quick PM to hide member Thomas Manners (of Manners Composite Stocks) would clarify any questions that you have. FWIW I...

    Rifle Scopes NF mil-spec F1 on a Rem 700SS 5R tactical

    Re: NF mil-spec F1 on a Rem 700SS 5R tactical OP, that is a great setup for getting into long range shooting. As green338 stated above, a 20 MOA base and rings from any of those manufacturers will get you out and shooting.

    Re: Safe dilemma, what would you do? FWIW, I faced the same dilemma regarding Franklin 35 and Fatboy 64. I had almost the same concern regarding location of interior vs garage. I live in the AZ desert near a river, so 100+ degree heat and humidity during monsoon season were my concerns...

    Rifle Scopes Bedding Scope Base?

    Re: Bedding Scope Base? I used red loctite when I bedded my Badger rail to my Model 70 long action. 1. Mock up the rail to ensure that it fits and screw holes align. 2. Used rubbing alcohol and a cotton ball to ensure both surfaces were free of any debris or fibers. 3. Ran a thin bead of...
