I'm thinking about this for a light weight hunting rifle. Most likely a .308 win. Max shooting range on game of 500yds. I will practice to 600 yards with it though. Questions are: I'm leaning toward SFP because it seems like the reticle would either be way too small on 2.5 or way to heavy on...

So just a simple question or two Do you calibrate your competition scope ? What typical calibration values do you see? Do the values differ for high priced scopes than for budget scopes? How reproducible have your calibration values been over time for the same scope? How bad is too bad...time...

After almost 3K rounds through my factory barrelled .260 my barrel has almost given up. Since this is an Armalite it seems, I am having a more difficult time finding a barrel or a smith for it. what is the best method for rebarreling this thing. I can screw a barrel on but finding a...

So I have ammo that shoots really well in my 22LR and my 22wmr. Both are shooting very well. But now I have a few questions for some of you experienced squirrel hunters. What range do you zero your scope for? How do you handle extremely close or long shots, dial or hold? What...

I have a Savage in a B&C stock with CDI bottom metal. Occasionally when cycling the bolt the spent round ejects correctly but instead of chambering the next round, it ends up pointing down and pushed down into thd front of the magazine....I'm not even sure how that is possible. ..Anyone else...

Not really sure where to post this, but this seems like as good of a place as any of the others. A friend has asked me to load him some ammo for the purpose of dispatching sick cattle. He raises beef cattle on a small farm and has periodically had to dispatch a sick or injured animal. In the...

Picking up 2 new AR-15 lowers tomorrow. would like to build one as a long range rifle and the other as a 14.5" shortie. Do I just have my FFL call one a pistol and one a rifle or can I call them both pistols to be safe in the long run? Thanks. Barrel Nut

I just got my first AR-10 and am beginning to do load development. It is a. 260 and I am specifically interested in knowing when to stop from a pressure standpoint. I am pretty experienced at loading for bolt guns but this is my first long range gasser. What pressure signs should I look...

I am trying to get better at watching bullet trace. I have a great deal of F-class experience and can watch bullet trace very well through my spotter. Under optimal conditions I can even call the scores based on trace. I cannot however see the trace through a rifle scope. I have tried...

Anyone have any experience with these? Looks like a good choice for a shorter throated rifle, if you still want to shoot the heavies

Looking for something for my .260. I have considered the VIAS, Badger and surefire. I am not sure what will serve my needs best. I really do not intend to go with a suppressor anytime soon so I just want one to help me stay on target for quick follow ups and allow me to see impacts better...

I need an extractor, ejector and spring for an old model 88 Winchester. It is the grandfathers rifle of a friend and these parts are just worn out. Who would have that and sell it to me? Thanks, Jeff

What kind of accuracy ( MOA at 200 yards) can you expect from a 50 cal with military issued ammo? What is the best case with handloads? What is the velocity and projectile used for the limited range ammo?

I recently had a Nikon Monarch that had a turret fail. I had inquired on here about their warranty service and gotten some mixed reviews. My Personal experience with Nikon has been first rate. They provided excellent service, and responded very quickly. The scope was shipped on 1/31. Nikon...

Had another scope sh*t the bed today. I already had two boxed up to ship back to Leupold. They will ship out tomorrow. Today I had a Nikon that quit adjusting. The elevation knob turns and clicks and sounds good but the reticle just does not move. It is very close to the optical center too...

I am not new to shooting but just getting into the whole AR thing. My question is why are so many people shooting AR's in 7 twist. I understand the whole faster twist, longer bullet, better long range performance thing, but is everybody single loading them. The longest bullet that I can...
