    What stock for Savage .243 around the $400 range?

    So my g/f is about to finish up her schooling and just got her CPS cert's. I have been kicking around the idea of getting a better stock for her Savage .243. Nothing is really WRONG with it, but it is beat up some. It is a factory stock and she used it for hunting. I am not looking for some...

    Bolt hard to manipulate in bolt action savage, how to fix?

    Thanks Temp9, i will check it out. Stock, its her deer rifle and she said its never been that heavy of a lift. Shes happy with it so I aint going to tell her to sell it. Plus isnt Remington now in the same catagory as ArmaLite as far as "screw you citizens, cops can have it but yall cant?"

    Bolt hard to manipulate in bolt action savage, how to fix?

    Hunting & Fishing Cabelas OR Bass Pro ?

    for me, Cabelas is closest. They USUALLY have the stuff i need, but alittle higher. The LGS/reloading store is further, most of the time have stuff and is sometimes cheaper.

    Is +/- .3 close enough for stick powders?

    Re: Is +/- .3 close enough for stick powders? When I first got into reloading (a whole 2 years ago) I started with Varget for my .223. after 6 months of pulling my hair out and trying every tip/trick in the book to make that damn powder meter better (i too was getting about +/- .3gr a pull)...

    Re: 243 on a 550B, can I use a 308 base & 223 funnel? yeah, once I got thinking more, i figured a .223 funnel in a .308 die wouldnt work. thanks

    243 on a 550B, can I use a 308 base & 223 funnel?

    For rifle, I reload mostly .223 and .308 but my g/f is wanting to get back into hunting and has her .243. My question is, I have a .308 "conversion kit" and I am about to go get the .243 dies. Can I use the .308 conversion (base plate and brass tabs) and just use the .223 powder funnel for her...

    problem with PPU .308 ammo????

    So i went to the range today with my .308 (see sig) with a few friends. i ended up spending 5 hours getting free brass *roughly 32 lbs* and ended up shooting off maybe 30 rounds today. Long story short, I shot a total of 16 rounds of .308. my first 10 were some nato 147gr fmj stuff. all shot...

    Rifle Scopes need some clarity on NF 12-42x56 and MOA rail

    I was leaning towards the 8-32x56 NF benchrest for a while but am kind of kicking the idea of the 12-42x56 around now. the rifle is a POF build with a 22" JP barrel and I will be using this for mostly benchrest shooting. For the most part, i wil lbe shooting 200-500 yards but will also have...
