    Sidearms & Scatterguns So here is a potential good deed... Buy Yourself a Christmas Kukri!

    I tried 3 times, never did get my card to go through. Got the same message: Transaction may not have been completed. So I went through Paypal and it finally took.

    Mine didn't go through either. But, I'm going to try again. Want one!

    Going to break out the new brass once!

    Bought a 338LM in May 2019. Bought 3 boxes of Hornady ammo to get started on and have been reloading them ever since. Reloaded 25 rds yesterday and emptied my 8lb jug of Ramshot LRP and realized I've shot 11 lbs of powder so far reloading the LM. All on the same 60 rds of Hornady brass. There's...

    Rifle Scopes Optics Planet SUCKS

    Well, here's my experience with Optics Planet: Back in July, knowing I was quite a bit late to the game, I ordered 5/200 rd boxes of Win white box 9mm ammo from them. Pretty sure I'd never get it. I got a couple of emails from them pushing the expected delivery date back each time. I fully...

    Does talking about ammo shortages make them worse?

    I don't mind talking about it. Of course I just got an email today that the 1000 rds of 9mm ammo that I've had on back order from Optics Planet since the first of July is finally being shipped. 24.5 cents/rd! I NEVER expected that order to be filled...ever. Got an email asking me if I still...

    Rifle Scopes Help selecting rings for Ruger Precision Rifle and Athlon Cronus BTR

    I'm just running zero angle on the ring inserts. I'm not going to be shooting farther than either rifle/scope combo will handle with the 20 moa built into the rail on the RPR. I'm able to shoot 1200yds and quite honestly I'm more than satisfied to do that.

    Suppressors Elite Iron Sierra 338...Sweeeet!

    Admittedly I can't see the fireball behind the trigger. You can see it if you're behind and to the side though. My buddy noticed it when we first shot it trying the suppressor out. So really, no problem, just kind of interesting. The biggest surprise, and the best, was how much suppression...

    Suppressors Elite Iron Sierra 338...Sweeeet!

    One thing I forgot about. Overall very happy, but for some reason I'm getting a fireball out of this thing. About 2''. Don't have that with a 308/Omega, but of course it's a lot smaller cartridge. And I never noticed it with the tank brake. Kind of surprising, never heard this mentioned before...

    Suppressors Elite Iron Sierra 338...Sweeeet!

    Just tried my new Elite Iron Sierra 338 suppressor today. Going on my .338LM RPR. It was delivered at noon and figured I'd go out and try it Saturday. Came with a suppressor cover so I spent some time tying it up and fitting it. Well, after looking at the setup for a while I couldn't take it and...

    Rifle Scopes Scope and rRings for. 338?

    I've got an RPR in .338 too. I've got an Athlon Cronus with 34mm Burris Signature rings on mine. I've always liked the Signature rings and usually use them.

    Rifle Scopes Cronus BTR vs Burris XTRII

    I've always been a Burris fan. Started out with a couple of Signature 6-24's back in the day on prairie dog rifles. NICE scopes. Then, between work and prairie dog towns disappearing in the area I got away from longer distance shooting. Mostly hunting and lower powered scopes then, 3-9's...

    Rifle Scopes Optics Planet SUCKS

    Every company has it's good/bad stories. Never ordered from Optics Planet but heard a lot of bad ones about them. I've ordered quite a bit from Midway over the years and no problems. Last time was about 3 weeks ago, ordered 3 items Sunday nite and had them Tuesday. Not bad. USPS sucks in my...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig P365 owners?

    I tried one. Ended up owning 3! Sold one and replaced it with an XL. I'n not real thrilled with the primer swipe issue, one hardly marks, one marks up the primer some, and the 3rd one marks it up alot. But no problems so far. Sig says no problem now, so I'll keep shooting and wait to see. Mine...

    Everyone is adding weight to comp guns, why not mecury recoil reducers everywhere.

    I've used a mercury reducer in a B&C stock on a .308 Savage. I know, a .308 isn't bad, but the older I get the more recoil sensitive I get. It helped quite a bit for me. As far as "sloshing"? Never noticed it. Ever.

    Rifle Scopes Monstrum Scopes

    I've got the Ares BTR on my Ruger RPR 338 LM. It's held up for approx 700 rds so far. A better scope than my Midas Tac (as it should be). My next scope will be a Chronos BTR. Admittedly I know NOTHING about the Monstrum, but I really do think you can do better.

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    A "big dog" was more or less on my bucket list. I really didn't figure on getting one though since I'm feeling the recoil more the older I get. But I shot a friends RPR and the recoil really wasn't bad because of the weight. He actually asked me today, since I'm shooting mine all the time, what...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Mpepin07...I bought the 338LM last year. Like you, it was a decision between the 300PRC and 338LM. I'm 66, and starting to getting a little recoil shy. The 338 does kinda kick my ass. And it's definitely NOT cheap to shoot either. But, I do reload. And, after reloading my initial loaded...
