    gun stock painting with 2 parts epoxy?

    Most pros use Polane, can be bought at better auto paint stores. Very expensive but very durable.

    Range Report .308 effective hunting range

    While bullets are certainly a concern, your rifle /scope combo along with your long range shooting skills will make more of a difference than the style of bullets. Any bullet has to be placed in the right spot regardless of design to kill effectively. If your rig cannot place the bullets where...

    Rifle Scopes Zero stop or tracking issue?

    Call S&B customer service. I had a similar issue, they told me exactly how to correct the problem. They are very easy to deal with, located in Va I think. Bill

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce Announces, 5-20x SHV Scope

    I have to agree Jay, except for very long range rigs or the odd opportunity at very very low light I would NOT want a 56 mm objective. Weight not withstanding, that much objective lens , at least for me, just makes the rifle top heavy and un-wieldy at best. a 56mm lens puts that centerline of...

    Gunsmithing 300 wsm vs 308

    Sir, What Chad said is on the mark. CFE will push a 155 to almost 3000 in Lapua brass with a 24" tube..I know, I am doing it weekly. It would push the Berger 155 to the same speed. In my particular barrel, I cannot get anywhere near 3000 with Varget no matter how much I stand on it in a 24"...

    Remington vs. Winchester Brass - Feedback Needed

    I have used R-P, Win, Lapua, Norma and others. If you are buying current made brass it seems R-P has been very good in most respects. It is thicker than Win and thus you can not get the same amount of powder in the R-P case as you can a Win. It also seems as though some rifles favor one brand...

    Gunsmithing Dye to identify wear points?

    Gunsmithing New Hermes engraver

    Some are huge, some are about perfect. I use one but had to make a plate for the barrel to rest on. Mine is one of the larger ones that requires 3 separate adjustments for the letter size and location. I think its a little too big and it is heavy as hell. There is a smaller one that a friend...

    Gunsmithing What to do with a Rem Sportsman 78......heirloom

    T-1, Build anything on the 78 that you would on a 700. There is nothing wrong with them and just a rebadged 700 and cheaper stock. The last one I built was a 308 tactical and it was a tack driver. Bill
