    New (to me) Kestrel!

    Re: New (to me) Kestrel! Nice score. Amazon will have good deals from time to time, just have to keep checking back. I scored a tan 4000NV (not that I need nv) for 199.00 because the box had a crinkle in one corner.

    Range Report 7mm 175smk dope vs chrono

    Re: 7mm 175smk dope vs chrono I run the 175 in mine. I have run it touching the lands to .015 off with no noticeable change. They certainly do not seem to be finicky like some bullets out there.

    "You Want HOW MUCH For That?" **RANT**

    Re: "You Want HOW MUCH For That?" **RANT** You guys have no idea. Here in Commiefornia there is a "safe list" of handguns that are available for new purchases. Anything not on the "roster" commands a huge premium. When the LCP came out people were paying 600.00+ for one from those that could...

    GAP .284 "Multi Use" Rifle**RANGE UPDATE**

    Re: GAP .284 "Multi Use" Rifle**RANGE UPDATE** With mine I found the best accuracy with H4350 at 2760. I was able to get a touch more speed but accuracy quickly fell off. 4831sc wasn't the powder for mine.

    Range Report 7mm 175smk dope vs chrono

    Re: 7mm 175smk dope vs chrono I wouldn't sweat it too much. You know about my issues dealing with mine so I won't go into it. I stopped worrying about the actual speed and look more at the ES/SD numbers which are more important to me. As long as it does what you want you should be good to go.

    Armstrong to be stripped of all 7 titles today!

    Re: Armstrong to be stripped of all 7 titles today! The big question is this; if he doped for as long as the USADA claims, how deep does the conspiracy go? He has not tested positive, there is no actual proof, and even after a 2 year investigation, nothing, nada, zlich, zip. How is it...

    Hunting & Fishing Considering a Win M70 for hunting, good stuff??

    I am looking at a used, mid 70's M70 as a hunting gun. Its in 25-06, barrel getting worn, finish is a bit worn, overall solid mechanically. I'd probably shoot it as-is for a time then rebarrel to .280. I have no experience with Win rifle's and am looking for some comment's good and bad. Thanks

    GSW's rifle vs. pistol from a surgeons POV

    Re: GSW's rifle vs. pistol from a surgeons POV Not mine, just reposting an interesting video. I think the point was that pistol cals were effectively the same as far as damage done.
