    New Norma "Match" Offering

    Tac22 seems to shoot well out of by B14R and my 10/22s--a bit better than CCI SV, not as good as SK Standard +. When I saw the new 'match' stuff is the same price as the Tac22, I ordered 4 bricks. Even if it doesn't perform any better, I still have a few 'not precision' guns that need to be...

    Shipping a Motorcycle

    The only time I ever shipped a bike was when Uncle Sam shipped from Germany to Alaska. Drained the fuel, oil and removed the battery......poor bike spent almost a month on a boat before it got stuck in a storage locker for a year while I was out at a remote site. When I got back to Anchorage...

    Maggie’s Motivational Pic Thread v2.0 - - New Rules - See Post #1

    Yup. I've had much better results using Krylon Fusion for plastics. FWIW, I'm seriously considering doing the same treatment to my old 4x4 Dodge Dakota. (I could paint it with interior house paint and a roller and it would be an improvement--I bought the truck for $800)

    Maggie’s SH Motorcycle Thread

    Yesterday, my gf and I went on a day trip on the Road King. We hooked up with a local riding group and 18 of us did a roughly 600 mile round trip from Lexington, SC to the Maggie Valley area of NC. 110 miles of this was on the Copperhead Loop. The world-famous 'Tail of the Dragon' is 318...

    O'Shay's Trouting Adventures!!!

    30 years ago on the Naknek River outside King Salmon, AK. There were 4 people in the boat, and we caught about 20 of these lunkers each. It was the only time in my life that I've ever stopped fishing because my arms were tired. 3/8 oz lead head jig with black maribou/silver flash--just...

    Best price on left handed Bergara B14R Steel?

    That's about $200 less than I paid for mine roughly 18 months ago. I was shopping for a T1X lefty for over a year before I stumbled upon my B14R. At $1250 (with 3 mags and tax), I know that I overpaid, but I'm very happy with my Bergara. At $950, you're looking at a pretty decent deal from...

    EC Barrel tuner on Bergara B14R

    I added a Harrell AR15 tuner to my B14R a few months ago. I chose the AR15 version because it was only $100 and it was a direct thread instead of clamp style. I didn't do any scientific method with math and measurements and such--just shot a few groups, dialed some and shot a few more...

    Indian or Harley

    Electronics, switches, wiring harnesses, engine sensors, headlight housings, fenders, fuel pumps, saddle bags. I 100% agree that Indian makes a great cycle and most are priced better than Harley....but there aren't nearly as many on the road and as parts change, old stock dries up.....and...

    Indian or Harley

    I don't particularly care for the Indian's fenders. Otherwise, they're very nice bikes, but I suspect that you'll eventually run into the same problems as owning a Suzuki or Daihatsu car---not much of an aftermarket, and no place to get parts except a dealership. I'll stick with my Harleys.

    Maggie’s Man's Best Friend Thread

    My best friend for the past 14 years passed away in his sleep last night. 14 years wasn't long enough. Hades helped me keep my shit together during the divorce. He was always there for me when I came home from a bad day at work. He liked to lay on my office floor and watch me while I work...

    A surprise in every box?

    I've got 5 boxes of Eley Match left from a brick--this stuff patterns like a shotgun--3+ inches at 50 yards and at 100 yards it's almost a foot. This is in both a B14R and a built 10/22. (Lot# 1020-05076) Federal Champion shoots better. I need to shoot it because every time I look at it and...

    Bergara B14R questions

    I'm running a Timney 'The Hit' trigger on my B14R. You will have to pull the bolt release, but that's just popping off a c-clip or 2, removing the lever and reinstalling the c-clip(s). Takes about a minute--I did mine about a year ago and I don't remember the exact procedure, but it was easy...

    Does Anyone Here Anneal Their .300 BO Brass?

    @spife7980 Good idea--I don't know why I never thought about that. I'm not a big volume shooter with .300Blk, and whenever I get below ~250, I just convert more.

    Does Anyone Here Anneal Their .300 BO Brass?

    I anneal, but I convert all of my own from LC brass--I have a virtually unlimited supply of once fired LC from my club after the local SWAT guys finish their training. The annealing makes sizing much more consistent. I don't think I've gotten more than 3 loads on a piece of brass yet--my .300...

    Bergara b-14r pic thread

    Excellent! Thanks for the information--KRG Bravo (left hand) is getting ordered now! I've got a Bravo on a 10/22 and I like it a lot.....looking forward to trying it out on the B14R

    Harrel rimfire tuner dimensions

    This is the one I have: https://harrellsprec.com/index.php/products/ar15-tuner-brake Total length of the tuner is 2.350". While I was dialing mine in the first time, I saw a measurable decrease in group size. With SK Standard Plus and no muzzle device, my rifle averages about .250" groups...

    Bergara b-14r pic thread

    How is the KRG Bravo working for you? I've been looking at them but the disclaimer that they don't guarantee the magazines will work with B14R has kept me from buying one

    Harrel rimfire tuner dimensions

    Sorry, but I don't have the answers you're looking for. Harrel makes a few different versions. I'm running a Harrel's AR15 tuner on my B14R and the length doesn't change. The weights are threaded to the outside of the tube. On the AR15 version, you loosen a jam nut (which is half of the...

    Ec tuner brake on rimfire

    @6.5SH I'm running the same tuner and you ain't kidding! That thing gets loaded with carbon/lead pretty quick. It's a PITA to clean, but my results have been stellar
