    Are these 178 AMAX by chance?

    Re: Are these 178 AMAX by chance? I received an email from Midway on these "blem bullets". The price is right. Is there any reason not to "pull the trigger"? Thanks very much. ELN

    Why I stay fit.... with Cross Fit

    Re: Why I stay fit.... with Cross Fit Nicely done! I've been Crossfitting for 10 months. It works for me. Much of the negativity towards CF is thinly veiled jealousy. Best of luck to you and your friends on the front range. Beetle kill and a hot, dry summer portend some serious fires in...

    Re: Reloading 101: Reloading basics for the new reload Doc and others - do you know of a source for the Possum Hollow case trimmer for use with the drill press? Midway is out of stock and I can't find it in my Sinclair catalog. Thanks very much for the great intro to handloading. ELN

    Gunsmithing Surgeon/jewell/SW Ammo? Minor problem.

    Re: Surgeon/jewell/SW Ammo? Minor problem. Good news today. The repaired trigger arrived from Jewell. Mike at SW Ammo shipped me replacement ammo and a prepaid shipping label to return the remaining ammo from the original order. This makes me happy. Thanks to both Jewell and SW Ammo.

    Gunsmithing Surgeon/jewell/SW Ammo? Minor problem.

    Re: Surgeon/jewell/SW Ammo? Minor problem. I had a very similar experience, albeit without the bolt stickiness. The details are below. I sent the trigger to Jewell. Jewell told me that the sear tip was broken. Jewell graciously repaired the trigger and is shipping it back to me. I have...

    Re: Two more headed home. Sir - Those are beautiful rifles. I'm curious about the 26" barrel. Was that your choice or the customer's? Again, nicely done!

    Yeti Coolers

    Re: Yeti Coolers For roughly the same money, you might consider a portable 12 volt fridge. Of course, you need a vehicle, solar panels, or some other source of 12 v power. They work very well indeed and don't waste interior space on ice. Overland Journal did a nice review here . Yes, I...

    Gentlemen - I have a Remington 700 LTR with the factory stock. I would like to add a short piece of Picatinny M1913 rail to the stock for mounting a bipod. Is the Badger Bipod Rail the proper piece for this application? Are there better alternatives available? I tried the Google search...

    Range Report why the 155gr. scenar for .308

    Re: why the 155gr. scenar for .308 Thank you sir. "Form factor" is new to me. Is it possible to calculate the difference in drop and/or drift at a given distance using "form factor"? For example, let's say we're driving both the 155 Scenar and the A-Max at a MV of 2850 fps. Can we...

    Leica 1600 vs Leupold RX-1000i DNA rangefinder

    Re: Leica 1600 vs Leupold RX-1000i DNA rangefinder My Leica 1600 LRF is an excellent piece of gear. I previously owned a Bushnell and a Leupold. The Leica ranges smaller and less reflective targets at much greater distances. The Leica also has nice glass and rides easily in a shirt pocket...
