    Recommend a good book to learn chess

    All, I've got two kids who love this game. Please recommend a book that covers the basics and some basic strategies. White belt level chess is the aim, for now. If not a book, then a link. Obviously I can google basic chess, but the hide has never steered me wrong so I am asking the...

    Leaving the bolt gun for a semi auto

    You're putting burdens on yourself that are not yours to bear. You're an American. You're a man. You're an LE sniper. Heck, you've earned having an AI in the safe, especially if you used it for Uncle Sugar. If that's not enough (and I'm only joking a little here) you have a duty to pass on...

    @TonyTheTiger you're as bad as the other enabler. I thought I was at the pinnacle of small arms technology with a carbine length M4 until you started posting your experiences in other threads. Longer component life, reduced split times, easier on brass - and the price is a little bit of...

    You're an enabler. But thanks for the tip.

    All very good advice. FWIW, I was trying to get a rise out of the peanut gallery with my "cheap out on the 6.5 build" comment. If there ever was a caliber to do that with, 6.5cm is probably NOT it. I'm not going to go as cheap as possible on this 223 build, either, but guns are like hot rods...

    Primary Arms IS good. Probably get everything except the receiver set there. I figured I might go the budget route on my 6.5 cm build. That ought to be good for a laugh. One final question on the barrel for those who've done it: does the intermediate gas make that much of a difference...

    Thanks for all the replies. On a whim I checked out Rock River Arms. Prices are good, for now, and they've at least got everything to put together a complete rifle. @Gustav7, I'm reading through your review on your PSA -10 adventure. Thanks.

    I've bought from them in the past. Big Tex ordnance looks promising

    Point taken. I'm considering a "hard use" rifle. Leaning towards 16" bbl intermediate gas, vLtor a5, triggertach duty, some free float hand guard. As you might have guessed I'm partial to money but I have plenty of experience with "it fell apart like a dollar watch." For what I'm willing to...

    Or I could ask hundreds of people who've done it way better than I ever have if there's a better way.

    Gents, I asked a similar question a few years back. Back then BA and Rainier were still loved by all of us, and Rainier is along the lines of what I'm seeking which is a one stop shop for all (most) things AR related. Is there a place that'll sell you an awesome BCG, well-fitted receiver set...

    Large Frame class

    @bigjake83, When I ws three or four I saw my Dad cleaning his model 70- 300WM. That rifle was a thing of beauty and yours are, too. Targets even more so. I'll PM you this weekend with questions. Thank you for your reply. God bless America

    Large Frame class

    Gents, I'm considering a 6.5 CM build after looking at Big Jake's creations. I've looked here for the pros and cons of the DPMS vs. Armalite patterns and come up short. I'd go off the shelf, but I'm picky. I currently shoot an 18" OBR, but I don't like the hand guard, the integral 20 moa...

    Let us know what you put together. I'm looking at doing something similar

    Tikka T3 Thread

    My eyes might need to be wire brushed. I've read every page of this thread. The hype is well deserved. I recently acquired a CTR in .308 and this rifle is constantly 1/2 moa with federal GMM 168gr. It even does around a minute with cheap freedom munitions 147gr. Impressive to say the...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Warranty Service

    To finally close out this thread, Bushnell hit it out of the park. Turnaround was around quick. Everything Bushnell had influence over was spot on, and the scope is as good as new. Lots of great scopes out there and some great warranties, but I've got four from Bushnell and am strongly...

    300WM recommendations (AICS, threaded barrel, Picatinny rail)

    You hit the nail on the head with You hit the nail on the head with that last sentence. Matt could charge for his time consulting on a build like an architect does. His sincerity is real and not some gimmick he learned at a marketing seminar. If I'd known him earlier he would have saved me...

    300WM recommendations (AICS, threaded barrel, Picatinny rail)

    Call Matt Stewart at Stewart Rifles. Let him know what you're trying to do. Let him ask you questions to make sure what you think you want really IS what you want. If he recommends a different direction, seriously consider his ideas. I flew professionally for 20 years. Lots of us ignorant...
