    Range Report made it to 1000yds with 7mm-08

    I had an opportunity this weekend to go out with a work buddy and and see what my 7mm-08 could do at long range. So far I had only shot up to 375 yards. After getting our ranges corrected we tried at 500yds. Dialed in 11.5 MOA and shot away. Hit every time. I couldn't have more excited...

    Found parts of gun in dirt!

    Thought you guys might like this. Found these pieces (correction, wife found all of these pieces and I didn't help at all) while clearing a spot for a pool. I had just tilled up the area lightly to get rid of the weeds and to help level it out a little. While putting the forms up and leveling...

    Gunsmithing My new lathe and jigs

    I've been busy with work work lately and have been neglecting my shooting side for a while. Here's an update: Got a new lathe, all my very own! Enco Turn Pro 14x40. Had some problems with the stands but I think I have them worked out for now. They should hold until I get around to building...

    Gunsmithing Homemade CNC mill making first 1911 grips

    I figured I would share a little of what I've been working on this summer in my spare time. Found a Harbor Freight mill, model 40939, fairly cheap locally with tools and a few extras. It worked for a day before I started converting it to CNC. Have most of the bugs worked out and have backlash...

    First competition, on my birthday too!

    Yesterday I was roped into my first .22 competition. I was shooting with a buddy when the normal Saturday group of old-timers started to show up for their .22 match. I had brought my .22 but the plan was to work on a load for my buddy's 7mm-08 and get him some more trigger time. He spoke up...

    Mossberg 151M-B what to do?

    Not sure if this belongs here or in the gunsmith forum but here it goes: I've recently received a Mossberg 151M-B in fairly rough shape. I've already replaced a broken firing pin and main spring and now its shooting nicely. My question concerns the rifle's value? Is it better to leave it...

    Next Project Savage FV-SR

    Snagged one of the new Savage FV-SR Mark II's. Short, pre-threaded barrel. Fluted. Accu-Trigger. Big bolt handle. Just comes with a crap stock. So far, that's been swapped out with a flawed Boyd's Tacticool stock. Just waiting on the trigger guard. I'm going to make the magazine plate...

    Rifle Scopes What brand are these rings?

    I just got a set of rings included with a scope trade and the original owner wasn't sure of their make. Neither am I! They appear to be Warne and some type of dove tail style rail. Also, they have a built in lug and have Torx screws. I have a set of Warne QD rings and they are much better...

    Tried ladder test with Varget on 7mm-08

    I've been using RL15 in my 7mm-08 loads for a while now and figured I would try Varget again. I thought this time I would try the method outlined here in the reloading forum with a ladder test. The range near by only goes to 200yds so I hoped that would be enough but, it doesn't look like by...

    Gunsmithing GunKoted Taurus PT92

    I've been practicing left and right and I'm getting my procedure down so I figured I would share my latest job. This is on my Taurus PT92 painted with GunKote Flat Dark Earth. This is the first time I've done a pistol. Came out looking pretty good to me. The slide shows up as a different...

    Gunsmithing homemade paint oven (more pics added)

    After seeing everybody's work in here and really not liking my SS barrel and receiver, I decided to build my own oven and pick a gun coating. I bought a small gun cabinet from Academy. Coated the inside with rigid duct board (PITA to track down around here). I went to a thrift store and...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper 6.5-20 Mildot with pics

    I just received my new Vortex Viper Mildot! Quick story: Noticed the power selector on my 6.5-20x-50mm had developed some play in its movement. It still rotated smoothly but the ring could be rocked side to side. Emailed Vortex, quick response, send it in and we will take care of it. Asked...
