    Gun Safe In Garage?

    Re: Gun Safe In Garage? The problem with the idea of putting 2x4 between the safe and the floor is that not only would it give a thief a place to pry at with leverage as Deputy Dawg says, but it would be a weak point for a thief to gain access to the bolts so that a sawzall would be able to...

    Re: Multiple neck turns on the same brass? Thanks for your response, I find your comments extremely interesting the reason being that apart from finding that there is more to turn in this brass that has been previously turned and then fired multiple times, I am also finding that I am getting...

    Multiple neck turns on the same brass?

    I recently started to neck turn my LC09 223 brass to get more consistent neck tension. The thing that surprise me is after neck turning the case to size and using the case in multiple firing, I find that if I run the case again through the neck turner, it take more brass off the complete neck...

    Monopod vs. Rear bag

    Re: Monopod vs. Rear bag FWIW, I still use my monopod but would be very interested a video demo on the use and application of the monopod. My own take on the use of monopod for F-class is that I agree with you i.e. the same level of accuracy is possible using a monopod and bag.

    need gun safe help: white mold

    Re: need gun safe help: white mold Mold cannot grow in an environment which is not damp which means your basement has humidity problems which is quite common since the walls are in contact with the ground outside. This is a problem not only for your safe but also a lot of the material you...

    Monopod vs. Rear bag

    Re: Monopod vs. Rear bag I have used both an Accushot and a bag. One weakness of the Accushot is that at least on my setup (OBR with a CTR & POD) it is a little wobbly when you have to dial it up, not bad but not quite as steady as I found for a bag. The real weakness of a monopod is that...

    Target Cams

    Re: Target Cams As far as I can tell by the Forrest article, it is a very simple setup. Basically you need a video camera with a regular RCA output (they all have them), you connect it via an RCA type cord to the transmitter and apart from an energy source for the transmitter, that is it on...

    Why don't more people sell handloaded ammo?

    Re: Why don't more people sell handloaded ammo? You might be OK but then perhaps not. There are many way you can get into trouble reloading, some of it due to carelessness, and some of it due to just lack of experience, and it happens to most people. However, being at the end of one of...

    Recommendation for a rear shooting bag

    Re: Recommendation for a rear shooting bag I too was trying to stay away from the larger bags due to the weight and bulk but I think if I was force to shoot on level ground, that trick I mentioned earlier would not work. Not sure what I would use in terms of “something suitable stable”. I...

    Recommendation for a rear shooting bag

    Re: Recommendation for a rear shooting bag Thanks! I agree that it is impossible to get one that would tailor to everyone’s needs in terms of feel, that really applies for most gun stuff since there is a lot of personal choice involved. However, I am just trying to get to first base which...

    Recommendation for a rear shooting bag

    Re: Recommendation for a rear shooting bag No offense, but I am not sure I understand what you are saying since I have not been in the market for this before. What stock are you using and are you saying that you tried three different types? Would really rather not repeat your experience...

    I have unfortunately gone around the block on this with poor results and so I am asking the hide for advice here. The gun is a LaRue Stealth 20” with a Harris HBRMS bipod front and a VLTOR mod-stock. I currently have a Red Tac Gear ½ Pint rear bag for this gun. It works on a bench with the...

    best way to pull bullets

    Re: best way to pull bullets You will drive yourself crazy using the hammer style kinetic puller with the number of rounds you are facing. Buy the Hornady collet puller as suggested by thespecialist, it is the only way to go.

    OCW --- why different charge weights in sighters?

    Re: OCW --- why different charge weights in sighters? Sighters are useful here because it not only allows you to ensure you get on target but avoid that cold bore shot which in many rifles could be quite a bit off than the following shots.
