    My dad has taken Metformin for years. He’s still in his own reality.

    FYI...Dementia and Alzheimers

    My dad is wasting away from it. I’ve spent the last two days watching him throw punches and kicks at doctors, nurses, me and his brother. Doesn’t have a clue. I wasn’t close with him, but not something I’d wish on him.

    Ear protection

    Got some Walker Razors after reading this thread. They are very good. Solid noise protection, slim enough to get a cheek weld, and active noise compression is nice.

    Guess Who Had Dirt on Hillary?

    The math says that you are more likely to die from knowing the Clintons than being struck by lightning.

    Recommend scope base/rail for a budget R700

    I recently changed over from two-piece mounts to a rail on my 700 (a modified 1995 VS in .308). I went with a Weaver Picatinney rail and Seekins low (.82) rings. Took it out yesterday and put 60 rounds through it. All nice and tight.

    Think of how many of those kids had never been out of their hometown a year before. And how many would never return. Thank you and Godspeed gentlemen.

    Butt Licker

    Take a sniff of a cheese called Liederkranz. My uncle brought some over once and tried to feed it it to the dog. The dog promptly dropped it and tried to roll in it.

    Help troubleshooting groups

    What he said. My modified 1995 700 VS shot roughly 1" groups at 100 yards (from bags and a bench rest) with 168 gr Federal Gold Match. With 168 gr Hornady Amax I can shoot .5" (again from bags and a bench). But with 168 gr Powershocks it goes to about 2". Microscopic faults in rifling...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Shooting Grip - youtube videos

    I completely agree. There's always a lot of hand wringing and arguing over "the best" way to do things. The bottom line is; do you hit what you're aiming at most of the time? If so, you've found the best way for you. Don't screw with what works.

    Rifle Scopes Looking for feedback

    I have a 3x15. It’s not some high tech operator machine, but for shooting predators at 200 yards it’s okay. I would suggest a better Illuminator though.

    Rifle Scopes Lower Rings

    I have a 0 MOA rail on my 700 and can’t seem to find rings that get the scope (44mm objective-30mm tube) as low as I’d like. Right now the base of the bell is about 3/8 of an inch off the barrel Any suggestions?
