    Tall target test results???

    I shot a tall target today to test my scope, a Leupold VX6 3-18, and I’m concerned. After turning up 30 MOA, my POI was 1.25” right of center. The target was mounted with a plumb line and a long level to confirm vertical. Have a level on the scope and the scope should be true as well. I would...

    8.6 BLK Build?

    I recently got to shoot a Fix in 8.6 and really liked the round. A Fix with a can is about $4500. Cool rifle, but I was thinking I could build one for a lot less, but I've never built a bolt rifle. I can get a 12" Remage barrel from Faxon, a chassis from anyone, and I have a can that will...

    Scope mount for Sig Cross?

    Which mounts or rings are working well on the Cross? I was thinking a light-weight AR type mount, but Individual rings might be better? I'd like to keep it lighter rather than heavy to keep with the lighter weight of the rifle. Let me know what's working and what to avoid. Thanks!

    Suppressors Which would make the least noise suppressd?

    I'm eagerly waiting for my Thunderbeast 30BA to be released from custody and was planning on using it on my JP-308, AR-15, and 7WSM bolt gun. I want to use it for hunting at a friend's house that has some kinda close neighbors for deer, and I don't want to upset his neighbors. Shots will be...

    JP LRP-07H Long Range Precision Hunting Rifle Review

    I finally got a chance to put some rounds through my JP over the past few weekends and thought I would pass on my impressions. Overall, I'm extremely happy with this rifle, and it has surpassed my expectations. I ordered the rifle from JP after Sandy Hook, thought it would be my last chance to...

    22 LR Upper?

    Does anyone have a suggestion for a good, dedicated 22 LR upper? Looking for something as accurate and reliable as my 10-22. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks! BTW, from what I've seen, you can get one of AR-15-22's (S&W 15-22) for about the same cost as an upper. Am I correct...

    Help-Opinions on HK 416-22?

    I've got a friend that is wanting one of these for a fun-plinker and I really don't know anything about them. They look cool and if my Slide Fire would work on it would be a blast to play with, but I was hoping to find someone that had some hands-on with one of these. Any input as to quality...

    20 round AR-15 mags at a decent price at Sportsman's Guide.

    The supply seems to be coming back slowly, but if you need some now, this might be an option. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=1151523&ecid=f309p&[email protected]&utm_source=internal&utm_medium=email-flash&utm_campaign=f309p

    Howard Leight - Impact Sport Muff - BAD customer service!

    I bought a pair of these from a Hide vendor (I can't remeber who) a couple of years ago. Howard Leight | Impact Sport Electronic Earmuff They worked great, really liked them until I split the metal headband (my fault). After that, when I put them on, I have a piece of spring metal...

    Is it time to start reloading .223?

    A case of Wolf Match 75 gr can be back ordered at midway for $625 (late may arrival) or I could put that $ towards brass, bullets, powder and primers and roll my own. I've never reloaded .223 or even picked up my brass, and I'm thinking now might be a good time to start. Any suggestions? Is it...

    Suppressors Help with thread size?

    I'd like to get one good suppressor for several rifles. I know nothing about the standard thread size that most suppressors use, and I'm looking to suppress everything from my LWRC .223 to my 7wsm hunting rifle. I really don't want to put a quick-detach break or flash hider on my hunting rile...

    Gunsmithing Replacing HS Mag with Wyatts on a REM SA?

    I've got a 7WSM (Rem SA) that has HS Precision detachable mag. The HS is nice and light, but I can't load Bergers out as far as I would like due to mag length. Is it possible to change out the HS for a Wyatt's and if so, would that allow me to seat the Bergers out farther? BTW, the stock is a...

    Bolt Wouldn't Open!

    Need some help here. Was shooting my 300 WSM yesterday, shot 12 rounds of 64.5 gr of 4350 (I think, don't have data here) w/ a 165 gr SGK at 2950 fps). Out of the 12 rounds, I couldn't open the bolt after firing twice. The bolt handle lifted w/o any problems (may have been a little tight...

    200 yd Ladder Test?

    Is it possible to do a useful ladder test at 200 yds or do you really need a 300 yd minimum to get valid results? It's easy for me to shoot at 200 yds, much more difficult to shoot at 300yds, but I don't want to waste my time with results that aren't going to be useful. Thanks for the help. Glenn
