    Who still owns their first gun?

    Yup. Still have mine.. and every other I have acquired since my teenage years. I don't like to sell things. I hate that seller's regret feeling..

    Powder for 223

    I have had good results with 4064 and N140 for 69 smks. Slightly better with 4064, with my barrel anyway.

    .308 Winchester

    I have had great luck with 42.x gr of 4064 and N140 with 175gr bullets.

    Primal Rights Exclusive TS Customs RimX Rifles - Availability & Testing

    ^^ a lefty can dream..... 🤔 I wish I had the ability to 'invest' in one of these.

    B14R left handed

    I was curious for a release date, so I sent their CS an email. This is the response I got: "The New 2021 models will be available late Spring to mid-Summer."

    B14R left handed

    Can't wait to get one. All my center fires are now left handed, all my .22s are right handed. Gotta fix that!

    Rifle Scopes Best scope for lefties

    I'm with Mike2763 on this one, I am fine with the ergos as they are. I always hold for wind. If one did dial for wind, then I can see the advantage of having a 'lefty' scope.

    Tikka Tac A1 Accuracy Help

    I feel for you Hogg, these problems are the hardest to solve sometimes. Very frustrating. You have received some good advice so far, but my 2 cents is you really need to rule out scope issues by trying a different known good scope. I had a similar problem a while back on a .22. Scope was the...

    Tikka Tac A1 Mag question.

    FWIW, 175 SMK .030 off and plenty of room at the end, as I can remember. I would post a pic of how much room I had, but I am fresh out of rounds.

    Rifle Scopes Dvor Business Practices

    My advice? Keep the MOA scope.. Everyone knows MOA is a finer adjustment than MIL and thus better. :ROFLMAO: (I just had to...) Seriously... vendor problems suck and I don't wish them on anyone - unless I hate you or you owe me money. I hope you get it worked out and get your cash back...

    Savage

    Northernjets' experience echos mine with my three Savages. Accurate, but the clunky bolt and ejection issues can get frustrating when you run 'em.

    Rifle Scopes OPTICS NOT MADE IN CHINA.

    +100 to this. Forward thinking for corporate profits, short sighted in respect to long term strategic advantage for the US. Say what you want about the 'service economy', the real value/power is in the ability to make stuff. We survived the 40's on our ability to make more stuff quicker than...

    .308win powder choices

    175's with 42.~ grains of IMR4064 or N140 works wonders in my gun. Smallest groups (not by much) were with N140.

    Help me pick a NRL22 rifle

    If I am going to compete against you, then get a Savage hands down! (sorry, just had to say it! :) ) "What make/models should I look at?" I don't have a lot of details about the current crop of .22 offerings, so I will learn along with you. "What did you choose and why?" When I dip my...

    10/22 "DIY" tuning

    Are you having any issues with your rifle that you are trying to 'tune' to make better? Anything specific to the action cycling? Or are you just tuning for fun and trying to make your rifle 'better' than an off the factory line rifle? I'm going out on a limb here, but I don't think you'll...

    Is it worth keeping a 308 around?

    I thought about going the 6.5 route, but I ended up doubling down on the .308. I already had a metric shit ton of powder and components for .308 and I am too lazy to try to sell it all and buy new stuff. Will I regret not upgrading to the 6.5 at this point? Maybe...dunno. The .308 hits...

    New Savage 10T-SR rifle

    Another data point: I did the larger bearing trick on two of my Savages and it made the issue much better. Ejection/extraction is still on the weak side, but improved enough to make the rifles serviceable.

    Rifle Scopes Swfa 10x?

    I bolted a 12x on my Tac a1 and took it out to Blue Steel Ranch for a class. I never felt under scoped at any distance I shot. I dialed that thing up and down for two days straight, tracked perfectly and held zero. The only time I found the scope limiting was shooting into the early evening...

    Tikka T3X CTR .308 - 175gr TMK's or 185 Juggs?

    FWIW, I have a 24" Tac A1 in .308 (same barrel as a CTR?), but it sure liked the FGMM 175gr. With 40 rounds on a new barrel, FGMM gave me a 10 shot .61 moa group over a Magnetospeed. Avg: 2,573 ES:20 Ordered 400, went to class and it performed awesome out to 1K. Never missed due to...

    Substitute for varget

    I am relatively new to reloading as well. FWIW, I tried N140 just because I had some from an experiment with a .223, and to my surprise, it was grouping really nice - equal to and some cases better than my 4064 loads. I am running an 11tw and 175 SMKs.
