    DPMS 308 Oracle accuracy test (out of box 3 loads) *Update with a few new toys*

    Usually people who shoot bugholes don't use that scope :). But yes, you have a point, though pretty much all the reviews on that thing love it so I wouldn't think it's a scope issue. Unfortunately, I don't really have another set of rings high enough for the gun, though I do have a 3X9 Leupold...

    DPMS 308 Oracle accuracy test (out of box 3 loads) *Update with a few new toys*

    Hi all, I realized I had something useful to contribute, so here it is. Bought a new DPMS 308 Oracle and just got back from the gun store a few hours ago. I had enough light to test a few loads that I had on hand that I loaded a few years ago for another 308 so here it is. Range: 81 yds Scope...

    Enlisting in the military???

    I had the right attitude. I had that beaten out of me (partially literally). There were precisely 0 people from my unit who had the "right attitude" after 4 years. We were treated that poorly. Do you love your freedom? If yes, then don't join the military.

    Enlisting in the military???

    OK, I'm biased and will probably get flack for this, but this is my opinion. I served in Combat Support (arty) in the Marines. Now, Combat Support is one thing, and the Marines are certainly different from the Air Force. That being said: You are their slave. I really wish I were kidding here...

    Best stock for Savage LA?

    I want a new stock for my Savage for better accuracy (stiffness). I'm thinking of a Stockade (with bottom metal). I don't want to spend too much money. Anybody have any better suggestions?

    338 RUM in Savage - stock help (AICS mag)

    Re: 338 RUM in Savage - stock help (AICS mag) I'm most concerned about width. I can deal with it being a little short. I'm pretty sure the reinforcing ribs will need to be filed. I just want to know if it can fit otherwise. Thanks

    338 RUM in Savage - stock help (AICS mag)

    Re: 338 RUM in Savage - stock help (AICS mag) Anybody got one of these mags and willing to test if a RUM case will fit in it for me? If it doesn't, what do I have to modify? A little filing?

    .50 Cal Recomendations?

    Re: .50 Cal Recomendations? Here's a fairly comprehensive list of the guns. http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_6_3/195940_.html&page=1 I would check out the Anzio Ironworks rifles. Unless someone on this forum has bad experiences with them. I was thinking of getting one a while ago...

    338 RUM in Savage - stock help (AICS mag)

    First post so here's hoping I don't screw it up. I've got a Stevens 200 in a LA originally in 7mm. Well I threw a 338 RUM Shilen barrel on it 'cause why not right? Now most of you will realize the RUM won't fit in a normal LA mag. Well I handload so I just push the bullet in a bit more and...
