    Rifle Scopes Fun with a laser level

    Thanks azimutha, I suspected as much. I think every one around here just places it on concrete and goes. At $160 and no other use to me I'll stick with the plumb bob. If I had one, this is a good idea.

    Rifle Scopes Fun with a laser level

    I have never used a laser level. Some of the job sights I worked on dry- waller's used them to put the walls up an inch out of plumb in 12ft. Elev. crews put rails up 1/2 inch out of plumb. ( a 1/64 is the standard) So, how accurate are they, or is it the user that makes the errors? Not dis'n...

    Movie Theater The Hobbit - The Desolation of Smaug

    I liked the fist one . Stormed out of the second because of piss poor cg and story line. Can't believe any one can fuck up a good book this bad. Won't suggest this trash to my worst enemies.

    What is causing this?

    mijp5, I think you are on to the real answer. I just experienced the exact problem. Mild load in 22-250 was amazingly hot. Have dropped to H4350 to maintain safe pressure. ( 55gr sgk 3520fps new 24" barrel)

    Free float

    Cool. So, the Weatherby wasn't inside 10" at 200yds? After you get the scope on, you'll know if it was the Tasco. Is the bullet you're shooting good for the twist? Not too, heavy/long? Many things to consider before giving lots of advice. I do see you're using a phone so, maybe, details are...

    Not to be mean, as in don't answer, this just be honest to yourself. Can you shoot minute of whitetail? Yeah, ammo is expensive. What do you mean by, "were all over the place"? Again not much information for others to help. My personal experience is every rifle I have shot, before tuning, would...

    I have confused myself( not hard we Marines do it often)

    Your Dad was messing with you. He knew you were right. Just was trying to show you another way of thinking. My Dad always does the same thing just to see if I, or my brothers, will take the bait. Enjoy your time with him, when he is gone you'll miss these arguments.

    Hunting & Fishing Nebraska whitetail Rut

    The first thing to over come is, never hunt with a tag. The deer know who has what type of tag. Example: I had a antlerless only bow and a 10 point walks by making his mark day before rifle season. No does. First day of rifle, NO deer! Some people have better luck but, everyone says this year...

    Remington 742

    Sounds like maintenance is the key to a reliable rifle, who'd have thought of that! Glad 81z4me you enjoy yours. Question on your reloads, are they mild/standard or, max bolt gun can't get any more powder in the case type?

    my lee book shows a small range for h4350, start 46.0 max 47.0 gr., 3350-3420. Try varget 38.0-40.5, or my fav. h4895 36-39.5gr . Everything points to aprox. 3500fps. YMMV. Work up to max, stay safe. Bullets? I haven't tried the 70's yet, 62's vg for pd's, and 87's for coyotes.

    Priming tool you use?

    Hey, OP, Have you tried to buy the part? When I broke mine I was able to get parts. (5yrs ago?) I went to Scheels and bought a new one to keep loading. Now I use one for small and one for large primers. Just a thought.

    Heavy weight 243 bullets

    Are you loading the rounds singly or feeding through the magazine? If feeding through the magazine, check OAL again. I would bet the bullet has slipped out. If loading singly, I haven't any idea.
