    xlr delays

    Delays happen, especially with firearms shit. Kyle will get you taken care of, fear not.

    7mm wsm saum 284 winchester HELP!

    Barrel life on my 7RM under match type shooting conditions (lots of rounds in short periods = lots-o-heat) was about 1100. A couple of guys I shoot with see about the same with their WSM's. The .284 shooters I know are getting 2500ish. My .284 is at 850+ right now and shooting better than I can...

    Motorcycle cop busted by 12 year old

    He should have fought it. He probably had a decent chance of winning;)

    Motorcycle cop busted by 12 year old

    Yea, 1:27 into the recording. Why was the camera sideways? Why film and post on Youtube unless you hope to catch something controversial?

    Rifle Scopes Help on budget scope

    Its awesome that you are starting out young, no hating that. The PST is miles above the fixed SS but, not a comparable pairing due to the drastic differences. I'd look diligently for a used PST. I sold mine for under 800 lightly used so a deal can be had. If still not in your budget, look at the...

    XLR Chassis Stock

    PJ, the 1.26 are needed. Vortex also sells rebranded Seekins rings but they list them as "Hi" on the website. Another option in case you have trouble finding some.

    Motorcycle cop busted by 12 year old

    I have no issue with the kid asking the cop about parking on the sidewalk. However, secretly filming the incident shows he is hoping to stir up some shit.

    xlr butt stock??

    You talking about the old version or new? Agreed on the old one but, by all accounts I have seen, the new one is a solid piece.

    7mm mag or 7mm practical?

    I ran a 7RM as my first match gun caliber. I ran the Amax at first then switched to the 180 smk which was quite a bit better. My barrel went about 1100 rounds and it was toast. On the rebarrel I went with a straight .284. Does everything I need better and at 800+ rounds, it is still rocking...

    7mm-08 or 284 Winchester?

    I emailed WW about a week ago and their reply was the usual, "Due to the current political...blah, blah, blah," I cannot recall the exact words but something to the effect that 284 brass wasn't something they were slated to make anytime soon. Then I see that Midways status on it went from...

    7mm-08 or 284 Winchester?

    How do you neck up and not have to neck turn? What about "donuts?" I may end up trying some Norma brass and neck up. I do not want to neck turn, nor am I set up to, or worry about donuts. I was reading about fireforming with pistol powders and cream of wheat which avoids some of the necking up...

    7mm-08 or 284 Winchester?

    If you are shooting a 150 grain bullet, the .284 would definitely have more juice behind it, even in a short action. Feeding from AI mags is no problem. The major downside is that brass is unobtainium right now. Per Winchester, plans to turn out more won't happen for close to a year. There is no...

    Agree 100%. I lightly beveled mine with a Dremel and it helped quite a bit.

    Rifle Scopes Useable magnification range of bushnell Xrs, hdmr, and vortex razor

    My Razor is good all the way to 20x. The reticle is not too thick and I actually like the open center of the 2B. I wasn't sure I would but after using it, its great for smaller targets at distance, being able to bracket a small dot as opposed to covering it. I like the G2 reticle that Bushnell...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50 AO Any good?

    That was the first scope I used for long range shooting. It was 100% mechanical wise, dialed spot on, and had decent glass.

    XLR Chassis Stock

    Cool, thanks man. Am I seeing that it releases with a push button? It looks much nicer/streamlined with the rest of the stock compred to the other one. Kinda sucks it does not lock although I mainly want it for ease of cleaning so as not to have to loosen the stock screws every time. I tried...

    Hey, post some pics of the hinge, open, closed, etc., when you get a chance. I had the older version but didn't like it so I sent it back and I'd like to see how the new version compares. Thanks

    Rifle Scopes Question for Vortex Viper PST Owners

    I had 2 6-24's and one 4-16. Side by side, the 4-16 was not as bright or clear and could not resolve 30 cal holes that the 6-24 could at the same magnification. The 6-24 was very good until going beyond 20x where it became a bit dark and eye relief became tight. Grabbing an optic off a store...

    What folder mechanism for XLR Evo is this?

    Nice. I had the first version and wasn't happy with the lock up. How much is this one going for?
