    Re: Need a low priced upgrade, help me out I looked at the Bushnell but would lean to the SS for a fixed power.

    Rifle Scopes Need a low priced upgrade, help me out

    Hey guys, I am new to the long range shooting game. I put together my rifle with a scope that I had, a Nikon Buckmasters 4-14. It has served me well but I think I have come to a place where I need to make a change. Shooting with my buddy the other day I could really see where a mil dot set up...

    .22 Pistol Recommendation - Poll

    Re: .22 Pistol Recommendation - Poll I know a lot of people probably haven't shot one, but my Sig Trailside by Hamerli is an awesome rimfire, great trigger (long reset though) and very accurate for me. I picked mine up a few years ago before the prices started hiking, I have probably put more...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Carry pistol

    Re: Carry pistol I didn't see this listed but I think Kahr makes a very nice product, their Tp45 is light and thin with similar capacity to what you are carrying. I have had a few of them over the years and liked them very much, except the trigger took a bit of getting used to, it is long...

    Vietnam Snipers

    Re: Vietnam Snipers I have really enjoyed reading this thread, thanks to the guys who are imparting their experience here. I am also a guy who isn't real big on all the electronic gizmos used today- I know electronics fail and frankly I am too poor to buy most of that stuff. I have read...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Catastrophic failures in pistols

    Re: Catastrophic failures in pistols I think your question makes as much sense as getting rid of your Chevy because sometimes they breakdown. Anything mechanical can fail. Every gun you own is built by a reputable company and should last longer than you will. I would keep the one that you...

    Do the Sheep See The Sheepdog?...or the Wolf?

    Re: Do the Sheep See The Sheepdog?...or the Wolf? The snipers on my department's team were in similar positions when we hosted the Super Bowl in 2008. As for their skills, our snipers attend traings and schools in and out of state several times a year, as well as shooting sessions weekly...

    Re: Stick with 175 smk or change to 178 amax? I will have to look how to measure to the ogive and will try that for my remaining 175s, but I think I am going to give the 178s a go as well. Thanks for the help guys

    Stick with 175 smk or change to 178 amax?

    So I have been shooting 175smk's and was loading some different OALs which got me a little frustrated. I had trouble getting consistant OALs so I started to measure the bullets themselves. I found that they varied from bullet to bullet up to .005. I am not super anal about things, but since I am...

    I am wondering if I should continue working on my load for my 308. It is- 175smk @ 2.805, 44.5gr Varget, WLR primers and Hornady brass. My rifle is a Savage 10 with a 20" tube. I worked up a load going from 42gr to 46gr and settled on 44.5...but in my reading it seems that some of you are going...

    Re: Yes, I'm starting a caliber debate... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-...l#ixzz1hn5Nt1aE Just to back up my previous post. This doesn't say what caliber gun he was shot with, and certainly training and mindset comes into play.
