    Optics Loopy Mark 4s

    Howdy, I have two Leupold Mark 4 6.5x20x50 scopes for sale. The first scope has (I believe) Badger medium height rings which are attached as well as the original box bearing the scope's serial number and Butler Creek scope caps. There is one curiosity about this scope. The box, which I already...

    Any suggestions for a good in-line muzzleloader?

    I'm looking to get into muzzleloading for bear. I haven't done a ton of research yet but right now, Knight looks like the best ML out there. US made, MOA accuracy at 200 yards etc. and the fact that it is NOT a break action make it attractive. If anyone has better suggestions please let me...

    I can barely navigate this site - pages loading VERY slowly if at all

    I don't know if this has been discussed in the past but I can barely navigate the site. Whenever I click on almost any link, be it a forum name or a thread, it takes 2 to 3 minutes to load the page. I know the page is trying to load because the little thingey in left corner is moving. And...

    SuperHogster & Recoil

    So I note that the SuperHogster is rated at only 308 recoil level. Does this cause any of you concern that it may be a little fragile? From what I've seen, most shooters are mounting them on 5.56s, 7.62x39s or blackouts. Not a lot of recoil on any of those. I'm considering mounting on a...

    PVA Brakes - how good at controlling muzzle jump?

    I've been looking at Patriot Valley brakes for awhile and like them because of the way they emphasize protecting the shooter from muzzle blast. But I'm equally concerned about getting a brake that does the best job possible of reducing muzzle jump. I'm shooting a 260 Remington and I'm not...

    Shooting 500yds - What size IPSC Silhouette target?

    As the subject states I'm shooting 500 but what size target? Full size IPSC? 63%? 66%? I see these different target suppliers selling different size targets and it seems to be based on ease of shipping for the supplier. What's everybody using for 500yds? Thanks.

    CCI Benchrest name change?

    I've used CCI BR-2 Benchrest primers for a long time. Recently, I have been told by the LGS that CCI has changed the name of this product. The story now goes, alllegedly, that benchrest primers no longer say "Benchrest" on the box. They simply say " Large Rifle BR-2" Has anyone else heard...

    RollingStone article on US Guns and their effect on poor little Mexico

    According to this article nearly half of all gun stores in the United States would go out of business were it not for the sales boost provided by the carnage in Mexico. I guess the other half of all gun stores would go out of business if Hiders stopped buying. Here's the lie Arming the...

    Greetings Earthlings, Submitted for your review is a nearly new HK VP9SK with 300 rounds through it. It ran perfectly but all my other EDC guns are S&Ws and I've decided I want to stay with that platform. This gun's been to the range 3 times so that's 100 rounds, 100 FACTORY rounds per range...

    Prince Harry - Man you just GOT to feel sorry for the guy

    Can't use the word "Royal" This guy's had the best of all worlds all his life then he meets some B-list American actress and his whole world goes to shit. The guy's just suffers one indignity after another for this chick. No more Rolls-Royces, no more Red Stag hunts, no more gas power...

    Lapua virgin case prep

    Whenever I first use Remington brass I run it through a re-sizer to round out the case mouth and then inside/outside chamfer the mouth. Remington brass is noticeably different from Lapua and often looks dinged up. Lapua brass looks pretty good, no dings - should I run it through the...
