    Reloading Equipment Giraud Power Trimmer setup in 223 ***SOLD***

    ***SOLD*** Been sitting on the shelf in my reloading room (extra room in house) collecting dust for a few years. I barely have the time to shoot any more let alone reload. I've got plenty of prepped brass for when the day comes that I can get back at it but for now this should go to a home that...

    Proud of my pops!!!

    Always proud of him for numerous reasons but here is just another. They did the whole ceremony at the state convention last month. My son and I drove to it for the weekend as did my brother, his wife, and kids. My dad's brothers and sisters were there already as they are all either in the VFW or...

    Help me wrap my head around this, barometric pressure, Shooter for Android....

    Ok, so I understand the difference between absolute/station pressure and adjust sea level pressure. I understand if using the Shooter app and I pull station pressure from a Kestrel or my Phone (Samsung Galaxy S3, which is dead on tits in reporting the pressure) that I check the absolute box...

    So here is a new idea on shooting groups...

    I know everyone like to post their top notch made with unicorn tears groups to show that their rifle can do, I get it, I've done it. What I'd like to see are some same day same session multiple group sheets. What I'd love to see is 5 groups of 5 rounds each at 300 yards or greater. Not the best...

    New optics on my .22

    Wanted something with at least 12xish magnification down to 5x or so. Need adjustable turrets and really wanted side focus. Didn't want to spend a ton of money, I know you get what you pay for but didn't want to spend a ton on my .22 optics. (I have a Premier Heritage, ACOG, Aimpoint, Ziess...

    Bone stock Savage MKII FV with an old Simmons 3-9x40. Shooting Aguila subs, PRS tripod low, rear bag, minimal wind, no shirt, flip flops, shorts, on a TAB mat. Did I mention he's only 9 and just got this rifle less than 3 months ago as his first. 5 shots, 50 yards

    My son and I set up a new target backer....

    At home we usually just setup a cardboard box and staple our targets to it. Today I threw one together with galvanized pipe, threaded joints, burned in a spot weld at each joint to keep it from turning, and with a small sledge drove the legs in to the ground. 24" x 48" backer from Home Depot...

    Finally got my .22 shooting groups I'm happy with...

    Actually, I'm pretty dang thrilled with them. Been working on this rifle every night for a week basically, tweaking, testing, shooting, etc. A week ago when I started this determined project I was getting 2" groups at 50 yards at best, with some ammo's it did much worse. Tonight, after a week of...

    Hunting & Fishing A little sturgeon fishing with some SH love...

    Keep in mind I'm not a fisherman by any means. My son and I drop in now and then to fish local waterways for fun and just to be outside but that's it. A friend called and invited us to go sturgeon fishing yesterday and had a blast. Couldn't keep anything for whatever reason, rules are rules, but...

    To trim or not to trim, Nosler .260 brass...

    So I'm getting around to reloading my once fired brass and checking some measurements before I set up the trimmer and this threw me a curve. Tell me if this is logical. Max case length: 2.035 Trimmed Length: 2.025 All Nosler brass. Unfired: 2.016 Fired: 2.010 Sized: 2.016 I...

    Rifle Scopes Tenebraex scope cap onto USO ARD on my Premier

    I have a Premier Heritage 3-15 and years ago I purchased an ARD/Shade from someone here for it, I believe it was a US Optics, and it fits/works just fine but... On my scope the ring for the factory tenebraex cap that came with the scope doesn't unscrew, I believe they welded them in on the early...

    Looking at tripods, help me make sense of this and choose....

    Tossing around the idea of picking up a tripod to shoot off of in those awkward positions. In the past I have always counted on my sling and whatever I could find to use to make it happen but thinking I need to at least give a tripod a try. See if the benefit is worth the extra piece of gear in...

    My son's bday and associated 9th bday gift....

    He is one happy boy. He had no idea what I got him or that I even got him anything. His mother and I took him out to dinner, again since we took him and all his siblings out to dinner earlier this week too, then went to have some bday pie with the grandma and grandpa. Finally at 9PM after pie I...

    Savage MKii for my son, .22LR, sight in at 50 or 100 yards???

    Does it make much difference? Just a basic rifle with 3-9 scope, my son's first rifle (he gets it for his 9th bday in a couple weeks). I don't suspect he will shoot much further than 100 with it. Around the house 100 is about all we'll stretch out to. What is a good distance for just practical...

    Rifle Scopes Front flip cap and cat tail suggestions??? Premier 3-15

    I'm running a Premier 3-15 (which I really love) with a sunshade and a Butler Creek front cap that has never worked. It always pops open. Even sitting here at my desk I can't get it to stay down. Is there a better option out there? And does anyone run a cat tail on this optic and if so which...

    Ordered a Savage MKii FV and I'm damn excited...

    Not because its another rifle in the collection which is always cause for celebration, but because this is for my son who will be turning 9 next month. Will be his first gun (not counting his bb, airsoft, and NERF guns of course) I knew he has been wanting a rifle, he has been hinting at it...

    Same customer, both done in FDE and graphite black Cerakote H series. Thought it was kind of a neat pair together and wanted to share.
