    ROLL TIDE!!!

    Re: ROLL TIDE!!! ROLL TIDE!!!! Hats off to the freshman quarterback, he played a heck of game to be thrown in like that. Other than Shipley his receivers didn't give him a lot of help. I hate it that Colt got hurt, he's a class act. We broke the Heisman curse and finally beat Texas in a...

    Range Report A Comfortable, Ethical Range

    Gunsmithing barrel replacement without truing the action

    Re: barrel replacement without truing the action As long as you control shoulder set back what difference does it make if it is .0005 or .005" longer than minimum spec? Maybe you would see a little difference(and I said maybe) in virgin brass and fireformed brass.

    Pulling my hair out over inconsistent seating

    Re: Pulling my hair out over inconsistent seating Are you using a crimp? If not make sure that the longer cases are not trying to start into the crimp area of the die and causing some sort of inconsistency.

    How many reloads?

    Re: How many reloads? Two things kill brass in a hurry; over pressure and over working. If you keep a handle on these two things just about any brass will go for at least 10 reloadings.

    What are the pros and cons of a 22-250?

    Re: What are the pros and cons of a 22-250? I have never done any testing on barrel life but most say stout heavy bullet loads are tougher on barrels than fast lighter bullet loads. As far as the AI goes barrel life will be shorter. The more powder you burn the faster the barrel is going to...

    Rifle Scopes MIL and MOA Range Equations Explained & Derived

    Re: MIL and MOA Range Equations Explained & Derive Here's another option when using a true MOA reticle for ranging. Instead of using 95.5 multiplier use 100. But when you divide by the image size subtract 5 yards for every hundred yards that you come up with. Doc's examples 21" target *...
