    Best rear bag for tactical/long range shooting

    I have been a fan of TAB gear bags for some time but I also like WieBad's offerings. Both companies make solid, reliable, and well designed bags that are made right here in the good old U.S.A.!

    Triple Aught Designs

    I'm not a hatter so I have nothing against a company that is based in Komifornia, it's not TAD's fault the whole friggin' state is off it's rocker. I also recognize that TAD is a U.S. company and makes their products here (and God bless them for it). In fact it's one of the primary reasons I...

    Movie Theater What's your favorite Tom Cruise movie?

    According to a number of directors; Tom is a consummate professional on set and is often the only actor that has really prepared for the role. I'm with Desert_308 on this one, the man has survived the test of time in a industry known for chewing up folks and shitting them out. I met him very...

    Movie Theater Layer Cake -- 2004

    Layer Cake is one of those little gems you occasionally stumble upon. I was introduced to it several years ago by some Brit friends of mine. I have to hand it to the Brit's, they write some great dialog and know how to weave an intricate and compelling story. There are a bunch of Brit movies...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Carry knife preferences

    +1 for the ZT301ST. It's a heavy knife and some times it's not practical depending on where I'm going and what I'm wearing. If and when that is the case, I cary a folding CRKT M-21 Aluminum.

    Good pants without drawing attention or looking like a tacti-tard.

    Vertx! I have about 8 pair and have been using them since they first hit the market. Very tough, low profile, with excellent stitching, and color fast fabrics.

    Shilen accuracy: Select Match Grade vs Match Grade

    I have a Shilen Select Match on my Rem 700 25-06. With hand loads it's a 1/2 moa rifle. However, it was not my first choice and my smith contacted a friend of his at Shilen to have the barrel made for me. I have seen several rifles with Shilen barrels that didn't group worth a crap. I doubt...

    How`s the Krieger barrels been doing?

    Re: How`s the Krieger barrels been doing? I have one on a .223 SPR rifle and it's a hammer. Barrel has well over 2500 rounds down the tube and still shoots 1/2 moa with 75gr BTHPs. I'm very happy with Krieger. However, there are a lot of good barrel makers out there. Don't get fooled into...

    Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique

    Re: Savage MKII Build, ?'s on parts, Technique I like the Boyd's Tacticool stock. It's similar in feel to my Manners. However, it's not especially heavy, in fact I would like it to be a bit heavier and I may end up adding some split shot to the stock. I added a Karsten's to mine, I found I...

    Re: Steel vs. Aluminum rings .308? Seekins Aluminium and if you are on a budget, look at TPS Aluminum. I have been using aluminum rings for years and I shoot matches with my rifles so they get pretty beat up. Never had an issue, and can't say I know anyone that has had any issues with...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Prototype Combat Knife--Check it out...

    Re: Prototype Combat Knife--Check it out... Wow, considering the fit and finish, I would have to say no. I'm not into large knives , in fact I find that the shorter bladed fixed knives are much more handy. That thing just looks unwieldy, and rather useless. Not for me.....
