    Hunting & Fishing Hunting sand rats in Oregon

    Since I just PCS'ed to Oregon this last year, I have not had the chance to go hunting here yet. I'm planning on deer and elk this fall, but for now I would like to go whack some varmints. From what I am hearing spring is the time to go; does anyone have any places, tips, etc they don't mind...

    Rifle Scopes USO zeroing/spinning quandry.. ISSUE RESOLVED!

    I am a new owner of a USO SN3, and I have a question about spinning/zeroing. As soon as I got it, I mounted it and went out to zero it as per the EREK instructions provided with the unit. However, I have discovered that when zeroed, the windage knob will only move the reticle right (for left...

    One glass for multiple rifles?

    Maybe someone will have tried this before so I don't have to learn the hard way... So I spent way more than I should have on some awesome new glass for my 6.5 grendel. It has occurred to me that I would really like to be able to use this optic on another rifle or two as well, though that will...

    Rifle Scopes Viper vs Leupold at a reduced price point..

    I'm pretty sure someone is going to light me up for asking this, as I know that the Viper PSTs have gotten a lot of discussion on here, and not many like Leupolds. I've had a Mk4 for about 5 years now. I can honestly say it's been a good scope, taking everything I can dish out, which has been...

    Gunsmithing Bottom metal sugestions for an FN SPR

I have no idea what features to look at, or where to start looking. Badger seems to make some good stuff, but I was hoping to find something for less than...

    Can someone help expand my knowledge of BC?

    If you have 2 bullets with the same BC, and you launch them at the same speed, they should have the same drop and retained velocity regardless of weight right? For instance, a 155 Scenar and 175 SMK have just about the same BC, so why do people feel the need to get the 155's up to 2900+, where...

    Member Link Up Long range in OR

    Hey, I am looking to find some fellow shooters in OR. I got stuck with recruiting duty in Oregon City, so I would like to find a good spot to go and shoot some distance. I've done a bit of driving around on the mountain roads around here, but there are too many trees everywhere I've looked. Even...

    Noob .308 reloading question...

    I have an interesting question that I don't think I have seen discussed before. I have been loading for a little while, but this has been my first attempt at loading some match grade stuff. I am reloading for a FN SPR a1, using once fired (in my gun) Federal GMM brass. My issue is that my loaded...
