    Single vs Double Stage

    My brother bought a $90 double stage for his AR-15. I believe I also have a double stage on my handgun (90-two.) On both of them, I disliked the long travel - especially on the handgun: that is, if my handgun's trigger was on a rifle, I'd hate it. On the AR, I disliked how 'sharp' it was when...

    Stock for 700 SPS, < $200

    For $200 or less, can I get a nice ambidextrous pistol grip stock for the 700? I just put a Boyds Evolution on my 10/22 for $100, I like it a lot - but apparently they don't offer it for the 700. I prefer plastic, but wood is acceptable. Thanks!

    Suggest a Rifle: Semi-auto 308

    Semi-auto .308, Extremely reliable, Sub-MOA, Able to find quality aftermarket parts. (Trigger parts, adjustable butt stock, etc.) --------- I kind of think I won't find this, at all. I looked into the LR-308, and it does everything I want - except the most important thing: reliability. I found...

    Cheek Riser/pad for AR-15?

    I use this kind of butt stock: https://www.stagarms.com/model-3/ I'd like to get something soft/padded, is possible. What do you suggest? Later, I want to get a proper stock for a better rifle. For now, I just want to make this one tolerable. Thanks.

    Rear Bags

    I have never used a rear bag, and I have two questions: Some bags, like wieband berry - are fairly thin (link #1). Others are pretty thick (link #2). Which is better, or what purposes is each style better for? Is there a difference in quality, between Midway USA's bags and RedTac/Triad bags...

    Savage Mark II BTVS

    I'm considering getting one. They're sub MOA rifles, right? That's what I've read, but I'm wary of manufacturers lowering build quality as time goes on... So, are they still good? Also, any reason not to get one, or is there a better alternative? Thanks!

    Rifle Scopes Why a fixed scope?

    It may be a myth, but I have often heard that most military and police use fixed scopes, usually 4x. Why so? I know with cameras, the adjustable lenses are normally less sharp. And I understand if you change the zoom, so does your use of the mil dots. However, you could just get a 4-12x...

    What do I need to practice?

    What is the most important / most practiced skill, for long-range shooting competitions? Is it learning not to flinch, as with handguns: some of the best practice is done in your home with a dummy round? Or learning to take into account distance, wind, etc. and adjust your scope? (There are...

    Rifle Scopes Forgot the name of a sight.

    Just out of curiosity, I lost the site I found it on. It was a red dot sight or crosshair with ?1-4x or 1-12x? It was tubeless or with a short tube. It sold for around $1,200-$2,000.... The details aren't great, but do you have any idea what I'm searching for?

    Range Report Noob Question

    Hello, new guy here. I have been wondering, what makes for an accurate round? Specifically, group spread. I'm not talking about how flat it shoots to 600yd, how immune it is to wind, how much energy it retains, etc. Is it just the rifle build quality, or does one have an inherent...
