    308 Secondary Explosion Effect (handloading)

    Re: 308 Secondary Explosion Effect (handloading) Take a picture of the head stamp (with spent primer still in brass) and put it up. Flat primers/letters would be a dead give away that your loads are too hot. Also, what is your C.O.A.L.? (Like Harald said, seating too deep can spike pressures...

    rifle under 1000

    Re: sniper rifle under 1000 Look for a Rem 700 SPS or Savage 10. I'd suggest ditching the stock immediately and look into a HS precision, B&C, or Choate stock, and decent lower level optic (SWFA, Bushnell, Weaver, etc). Those 3 would be right around your $1000 mark. Do a quick search here on...

    Re: New guy needing help!! http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1568182 There's all the info you should need to cross the Mossburg off the list IMHO. (I also handled one the other day at the range... I wouldn't suggest you buy it) With mostly everyone else- I'd...

    Remington Barrel Contours: Seeking Tables

    Re: Remington Barrel Contours: Seeking Tables ^^ is correct. If you need exact dimensions, both Bartlien and Krieger (among others I'm sure) have the Rem Varmint barrel listed in their contours page with exact dimensions. (Varmint and Sendero are the same)

    1971 Model 70 Marksman

    Re: 1971 Model 70 Marksman She's beautiful looking- I've been looking for a Mod 70 myself but I'm holding out for a pre-64. I'd keep the T-6 on for now until you get a chance to give her a work out at the range. Hard to tell if the pad is original- I believe some did come with a recoil pad...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns questions about my used SIG P226

    Re: questions about my used SIG P26 Sig has used milled SS for their 226 slides since '96 (Most common SS is non-magnetic- however some is magnetic, it all depends on its grade). Looks like its been a safe queen/ been taken good care of. Enjoy.

    Range Report looking for a ballistic program for my andriod

    Re: looking for a ballistic program for my andriod I use Strelok- It's a great free app- the only complaint is you can only input one wind setting. (I.E. you can't break into different wind zones for longer shots)

    Rifle Scopes General use / shooting school Scope

    Re: General use / shooting school Scope If you're just getting into it- I'd take a good look at the SWFA SS line ($300) and spend more $ on ammo/ getting into reloading (if you don't already). They have pretty good glass- track well, and when you want to upgrade- they hold value very well...

    Choate Tactical Stock ... Defected or Poor Design?

    Re: Choate Tactical Stock ... Defected or Poor Design? I saw a similar issue with mine- which was for Rem 700. The front action screw wouldn't tighten up until it was in to far- locking up the bolt. Also, I had an issue with the barrel not floating. I was able to take a thin (roughly 1/16")...

    I'm an Idiot, Remington 700 5r SS

    Re: I'm an Idiot, Remington 700 5r SS If you have no need to remove the rail- I'd just keep it in. If and when you have to remove it- have a GS drill it out/ tap for 8-40 screws.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Shot my first centerfire pistol today.

    Re: Shot my first centerfire pistol today. Single action triggers are more like a rifle (compared to a double action)... shorter pull usually around 4-6 pounds (double actions usually being around 10-12 pounds). Highly recommended you find a buddy with one, or you find a gun shop that has a...

    My Rem700 .308 build plan. Any input welcome

    Re: My Rem700 .308 build plan. Any input welcome I could be wrong but I thought the Vortex Viper PST was available in both MOA/MOA and MIL/MIL. (yep, I'm right, SWFA's website has both MOA/MOA and MIL/MIL scopes available.) With majority of your shooting in the 1-300 yard range (per your...

    Re: Red Jacket Firearms are now being sold at Academy. I guess they gave up on piston driven AR... The monkey must of had too much trouble installing them.
