    vihtavuori powders ?

    Re: vihtavuori powders ? VV N140 has become my go to powder for maximum flexibility and simplifying logistics. Excellent lot to lot consistency, and smooth metering through my RB3 despite it being a stick powder. Use in .308 for 150-185 grain bullets. (semi M1A, AR and bolt guns) Other...

    M24-Rebuild anyone recieve one ?

    Re: M24-Rebuild anyone recieve one ? Part of the issue is that the "production" of M24Rs is directly tied to the Army's contract with Remington for M2010s. Consider the friction of a govt contract, and the fiscal climate resulting in the guillotine to the DOD budget looming this fall, all...

    Teflon-S coating for precision rifle

    Re: Teflon-S coating for precision rifle I'm a big fan of Black-T. It will coat all the surfaces except the rifling. It wears well, and reduces friction between moving parts. http://www.black-t.com/index.htm Hope this helps.

    Movie Theater Battleship

    Re: Battleship Wife, buddy and I just saw it. Much better than expected. More of an homage to the board game, and the trailers were a tad misleading. The action and special effects were excellent. The bit part played by a real Soldier (Colonel Gregory D. Gadson)was a nice touch as well.

    Re: Old walnut M-14 / M1a government stocks Fred bought out 1000's of M14 stocks when the USG got rid of them. Stacked to the ceiling in an old warehouse/converted farmhouse. I went there a number of years ago and picked out an awesome tigerstripe stock. He was a one-man shop, so looking...
