    When will it end??!!

    I've been working on the elusive "life time supply" since about 1995. I'm doing fairly well but would be crying, big time, if I was just getting started today.

    SAVAGE bench guns

    I've a 12 LRPV in .223. It's a 1/9 (the 1/7 wasn't an option then but is now) It has the left feed and eject which I really like. There is also an option for left feed and right eject but with fewer caliber options than the left port only. Mines got an extra heavy non fluted barrel. I believe...

    considering the Savage 12f/tr 223...need input.

    I have a LRPV in .223, right hand, left feed. It took a little getting used to but I REALLY like the left feed now. I might consider the left feed, right eject dual port option. It came with a nice H-S Precision stock. Only needed to add a Karsten cheek rest. 26" barrel, 1 in 9 twist which was...

    Suppressors Can't open can

    Mineral spirits did nothing for my .22 suppressor. It does nothing to remove or soften the carbon / lead fowling.

    300 blackout help

    The dots are calibrated for 220gr, subsonic. Easy enough for a 10.5" barrel. I would think you would be fine at least for the sub's. I haven't found any info on the supersonic calibration of the dots for velocity, or specific bullet weights. It may be a little bit of wishful thinking on the...

    AR 22 conversion?

    I have an ancient Ciener conversion in my 614. At the time it was the only full auto option. It's in an older upper that's worn past measuring with an erosion gauge. Min of can out to 50 yds and runs flawlessly, semi or full auto. The dedicated uppers look very nice. I like the Compass Lake as...

    Favorite .22 Revolver???

    I'm a fan of the S&Ws. Stainless over blued, but I have both. Target trigger and hammer a plus if you can find them. Wife has one with the alloy cylinder. No issues but I don't like the looks. I had a Colt Trooper that was nice and equal to the Smiths. Never should have sold it. They're getting...
