    AR 308 magazine maximum COAL

    Which setup and load was the 6 mm Creedmoor? Keep seeing feeding issues with 105+ grain bullets in autoloaders. Interested if Larue's are GTG for such a setup.

    7.5 lb .300 Win Mag Recoil - Brakes

    If you run a break on a 300 win run muffs. The shock can transfer via the bones in your skull and actually damage the small bones in your ears. Muffs stop this from happening. No harm in running muffs with ear plugs. Think if you run both it would be impossible to cause hearing damage unless...

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt Bender H2CMP, P4FL, MSR, or TReMor3 which should i choose.

    MSR or Tremor 3 are my favorites amoung those options. Consider a 6.5 creedmoor for learning if your range is 500-1000 yards. ​​​​ ​​​​​

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Cylinder Slide 1911 parts quality

    Have a few friends that love ​​​​​Cylinder and Slide. No issues that I know of so far. Have a friend that has competed in IDPA for years and he likes Ed Brown the best. He has helped run lots of pistol matches over the years. I run lots of Wilson stuff in my guns. Parts seem to be extremely...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Bodyguard .380 or Shield 9mm for older lady?

    Shield 9 mm is a good one for her to try. The ported shield has been popular but the muzzle flash would be greater. Depends if that would bother her. Low flash powders work well in these guns.

    eberlestock Terminator

    Eberlestock internal frames carry loads 55 lbs and less really well. 55-70 lbs the intex ii frame that eberlestock has on some packs is better. Also get their large pad waist belt (can order as an accessory if not standard on a particular pack) ​​ Above 70 lbs kifaru works way better.

    Hunting & Fishing Elk hunting 2017

    A 40 lb backpack plus weapon (cannot believe how many hunts guys are not ready for the weight of their rifle or bow) for 8 miles and still feel ok to do it again the next day. If it is a backpacking hunt increase that figure to 55-60 lbs over 4-6 miles. Do some 80 lb pack loads over 3 miles...

    Hunting & Fishing Elk hunting what do I need to know???

    I would recommend hunting with a high quality guide for your first elk hunt. Even with friends a DIY out west has a huge learning curve unless a few are elk hunters. You will save years learning from a guide. Not a bad idea to learn on a cow elk hunt if you are planning on multiple hunts in the...

    Hunting & Fishing Why hunt bears?

    Bear meat is good if they are not eating garbage. Make sure to cook it well though since they commonly have trichinosis. We spot and stalk them in AZ mostly. Sometimes run them with dogs, esp if they are causing trouble. It is very important to hunt them here to keep the population in check and...

    Might just go with 680 in the future. Will work better than blue or red.

    Glass bedding an AR 10 upper? Pros and cons...

    If I try loctite 620 on some builds I will report back how it worked. Much more viscous compared to other loctite and think that it would be easy during installs. Plan to run some tests on pipe fittings first to see how removal will work. ​​​

    Glass bedding an AR 10 upper? Pros and cons...

    What would be nice is if we knew the exact amount it improved accuracy on average with various barrels and uppers. Have seen small changes but also larger ones. One rifle we could measure no change but the barrel extension fitted really tight. On others it closed up the groups.

    Glass bedding an AR 10 upper? Pros and cons...

    We teach shooters here to optimize their equipment since we use all our rifles hunting. Every edge of increased accuracy starts adding up. 1" on impact can make a huge difference when killing. So let's say you take a rifle at 500 yards that shoots 1 moa (5" at this distance), then make...

    Rifle Scopes long range hunting scope

    What species do you plan to hunt with that rifle? ​​​​Horus reticles can be very nice for open country like with antelope and sheep. Something like a mil-r is better for areas with lots of shade and brush.

    Hunting & Fishing 28 Nosler too much for white tail?

    The 28 nosler is a great pick for elk and mule deer. Should be fine with the 195 gr on whitetails since your velocity will be more reasonable. Last season guys shot coues here with the 195 and it was similiar to a 7mm mag with 168s
