    SPS stock fit a BDL?

    Re: SPS stock fit a BDL? Should fit no problem. I put my ADL in one and used a Kwik Klip DM conversion for the bottom metal. You could use the BDL floor plate in it as far as I know, since a BDL stock is what my Kwik Klip is designed to fit.

    Aguila Super Colibri Penetration test.

    Re: Aguila Super Colibri Penetration test. I hunt Chipmunk with the super colibri. They do just fine. I hunt Groundhog with SSS and they tend to knock them back about 3 feet. Sounds like a winner to me. No one in the neighborhood can even tell I'm shooting. Though it's pretty rural here. I'd...

    New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up & Range Report

    Re: Range report! Well, I gave it a trigger job the other day. I always thought of my trigger as heavy. My buddy was like "Oh, mine is heavy too, but I wouldn't change it, it'd be a hair trigger." Well he got a chance to feel mine the other day and said that he didn't realize how light his...

    New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up & Range Report

    Re: Range report! I thought I did rather well for my second time shooting a high powered rifle. It's probably even more capable with something other than core-lokt and a more experienced shooter. It out shoots me right now .

    New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up & Range Report

    Range report! All righty. I went to the range again today. I spent all yesterday working on my breathing, and doing some dry firing. It payed off! The highest shot was first and just from the bore sight. The one on the left was the final sight in shot and I flinched pretty good...

    The single all-around rifle?

    Re: The single all-around rifle? Nice rifle. What range in Michigan can you shoot 300 and 500 meters? I do my shooting at Williams Gun Sight, but I wouldn't mind trying some longer range stuff!

    New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up & Range Report

    Re: New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up So I took it to the range. Either I flinch badly, or my scope is jumping out of adjustment, because I had some erratic results. To rule out the scope I picked up a Nikon Prostaff 3-9x40. Headed back to the range this weekend. Hopefully it goes better.

    New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up & Range Report

    Re: New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up Going to the range this weekend to zero it in. I picked up a couple of boxes of ammo. Going to try Core-Lokt 150gr and Fusion 165gr. I'm thinking I'll pick up some Hornady 165gr as well.

    New Guy: R78 hunting rifle build-up & Range Report

    Hey guys. I just got my first serious (to me anyway) rifle! I picked up a Remington Model 78 30-06 from an extended family member for pocket change. Some where down the line from new, it got a Ram-Line synthetic R700 ADL stock. I got it with a Bushnell 4x38 scope and Ironsighter rings. I picked...
