    223 AI and OAL Gauge

    Re: 223 AI and OAL Gauge I found myself in the same position. I asked my smith what he thought and he suggested making one from a fired casing. He said since the .223 rem case shoulder is so snug into the ackley chamber it wouldn't be an accurate reading. He's going to make me one when I...

    Rifle Scopes Ran out of adjustment! Need advice

    I'm working on a friends rifle and ran into a dilemma. I could use some ideas. Remington 700 short action, rebarreled with a .223 rem varmint take off that was cut and crowned at 22 inches. Weaver two piece bases, with what looks like 30mm Badger or Loopy tactical rings. Topped with a...

    custombrassandbullets.com???

    Re: custombrassandbullets.com??? I should have updated this along time ago! After I contacted Niel at CB&B, he said he'd try to find the Jamison Brass I was after. It took him a week or so but he found it! Even better, he honored the outdated price he had on thier webpage. Shipping was...

    Hunting & Fishing Where would you go? What would you hunt?

    Re: Where would you go? What would you hunt? One day I'd like to hunt red stag, caribou and kudu or eland. Hell, a damn deer tag in my neck of the woods would be nice (eleven years applying for a NW New Mexico tag with no luck!!!). I also have a strange desire to go to Africa to hunt...

    RCBS crapped out tried the Thumbler.... WOW

    Re: RCBS crapped out tried the Thumbler.... WOW I bought the Thumblers/SS media combo last year and agree that it cleans brass great. One thing that got me was the pins getting stuck in the flash hole. I primed a couple hundred .223's one night and just about the time I was done I noticed...

    243 guys

    Re: 243 guys I've got a friend that shoots a Sako with a 1:10 twist and he was able to find an accurate load with 95gr Berger VLDs. It seemed a little temperature sensitive if I remember. I think he was using IMR 7828sc. Once he found the load, he was taking it out to 800-900yds.

    STM Tumbler

    Re: STM Tumbler I recommend inspecting the flash hole in every piece of brass (one more step), for pins that "double up" and get stuck in the hole. You can make a simple little tool out of a old screw driver handle and the right size finish nail to pop the pins out. You will like how...

    Movie Theater Savages

    Re: Savages I watched it last night. I thought it was pretty good. Especially considering that most movies nowadays have been big let downs. Sucked that the movie had the opportunity to have some "snipage action" and they botched it. Selma and Blake were hot and Onofrio did a badazz job...

    Help choosing cheek rest

    Re: Help choosing cheek rest I recently picked up a Triad and its great! Wrap the stock with some vet wrap, then velcro it on. Vet wrap keeps it snug. I personally don't like the feel of the Karsten. Have you felt one yet? Feels chincy to me.

    Photos Funky or what?

    Re: Funky or what? Considering that Savage has the ugliest bolts around- that's a helluva good looking tune-up!! What do you reckon you might charge for that kind of work. I have a couple of the uglies.
