    Suppressors Shot My Tab Gear Suppressor Cover

    I saw two guys at a local match cinch their covers with zip ties. I thought it was a great idea. You can get those things to cinch up pretty snug. I've got Cole-tac and Armageddon and I'm pleased with both. The Cole-tac does slip forward every now and then, but very little, (1/2-1" tops" As...

    Thanks Wade. I'll ask my smith to take a look at it. Maybe hit you up for your smiths info if we keep going. Appreciate the help everyone! Thanks

    Gunsmithing Push feed bolt for FN (win 70)

    Thanks for the info gents! I'm not sure how old or new his action is but we've tried single feeding and it takes a lot of force and we've damaged two case rims doing it. He's looking at a replacement DBM that comes with a 5 and 10 round mag that should fit his needs. However, he's used to...

    Gunsmithing Push feed bolt for FN (win 70)

    Me either! But I thought I'd ask. I was wondering if anyone did an aftermarket like PTG does for 700's, that could be made to work. The controlled feed is great, but he's limited on mag options right now and the ability to single feed is what he wants.

    Gunsmithing Push feed bolt for FN (win 70)

    Asking if anyone knows of an aftermarket or modification to change a FN Herstal (win. Model 70) Patrol Bolt Rifle to a push feed instead of a control feed? My cousin is getting into PRS and being able to single feed rounds would a plus over the controlled feed set up he's running now. Thanks!!

    Who makes a highend, quality , portable shooting bench??

    I bought a set of folding table replacement legs at Lowes for $29. A half sheet (4x4ft) of premium plywood for around $35 (I think?) and some screws. Made the cuts and screwed it all together. Easy fun project and works great. Made it so it slides right in to a tiny Toyota Tacoma truck bed.

    Awesome white boy ninja moves. I can't believe I just watched about four minutes of that.

    I'd throw myself in front of a truck and rot.

    6x47 load info

    I'm seeing some very interesting results playing with seating depth with 105 hybrids and 105 a-max's in my new 6x47L. First loads I made for the new build, I was jumping the Bergers .050 and shot some very tight groups doing barrel break in. Ran ladder tests and settled on 40.5gr of H4350...

    Hunting & Fishing Shooting and eating Bear

    I got some bear meat from an uncle who killed a big male once and another time from a small one a friend killed. I'd heard all the stories about it being greasy so I cut it into steaks and trimmed all the fat I could. I cooked it like I do the majority of my game meat. Sprinkled it with some...

    What happened?

    I guess I'm one of those guys that doesn't like change. Not digging this new set up at all. Guess I'll get used to it!

    Hunting & Fishing Shooting baboons with subsonic .308?

    Re: Shooting baboons with subsonic .308? I went to school with a "chap" that hunted baboons and cats for a living for a few years. He used a 300wim mag. When I asked him why such a large caliber for such a small critter he responded "distance and safety". He said they wised up fast and...

    Do I need a small base die?

    Re: Do I need a small base die? Armorpl8chkn, I think you hit it on the head. And yes, sometimes reloading makes my head hurt! I gave a bro my take off barrel, maybe I ought to just give him the brass. We'll see. As tight as things are with brass right now I still think I should be able...

    Do I need a small base die?

    Re: Do I need a small base die? Thanks Milo. I measured a brand new case ano one of my problem cases (already ran through a full length sizer die) and the 1x case is .003 wider than the new. I measured both case heads, about where you'd expect head separation. I'm going to contact the...

    Do I need a small base die?

    Re: Do I need a small base die? The smith told me new brass would have a slight "tight" feeling. I've also read that a properly done .223 AI chamber will have a .002-.003 crush/push in the shoulder area. It's been the same with multiple batches of new Winchester, LC, and Lapua brass. I...

    Do I need a small base die?

    I could use some members thoughts on something. I had a Rem. 700 varmint .223 rebarreled and chambered to a .223 Ackley. I don't have the reamer specs unfortunately. I full length sized some of the once fired brass from the old .223 chamber. The full length sizer die was set till the die...

    Re: Man vs Badger If only badgers could could jump about five feet! That could have made some great video. A badger launching and catching Dumb while Dumber films it!

    Re: dick will make you slap somebody "Dick will make you shoot someone in the face". The big gal should have knocked the dick obsessed mouth out of her stool with the laptop she was holding! I can't believe that was video worthy!

    Hunting & Fishing Waterfowlers: duracoat vs duct tape

    Re: Waterfowlers: duracoat vs duct tape I Duracoated my coyote rifle about four years ago. It gets more use than any gun I have. I used to do the camo vet wrap, camo tape, camo duct tape- they all suck! You'll be happy witht the Duracoat. Krylon even beats tape in my opinion. The...
