    Anyone ever clean brass in antifreeze?

    Not sure if ammonia is the best to use. I’m a retired jeweler and always advised customers not to use ammonia products for cleaning jewelry. The ammonia will attack the copper alloy in karet gold resulting in weakened caret gold. Pure gold (24k) is not affected. Brass , containing copper would...

    Mirage URL Chassis

    I own one in a 6.5cm and I’m very happy with it. I’ve shot several other calibers (7/300, 338LM)in their chassis and their centerline design the recoil is noticeably improved. The muzzle hop especially.

    TiborasaurusRex shooting a water bottle at 1072 yards with a .260

    One can disagree with someone else but they don’t have to be rude. I don’t have a dog in this fight but if people are looking to discourage new shooters rudeness and condescension Will work. I’ve found myself falling into the trap of looking down my nose at others. Step back and look at...

    Smoothness of a bolt action

    My RPR is very rough with the plastic mag that came with it (bolt hold open when empty). I used one of my AI mags from my custom rifle and it ran MUCH smother. The bolt just does not run smoothly over the follower in the plastic mag. Feels like a different rifle using the AI mag.

    Rifle Scopes The Level Questions Asked

    No one has mentioned “optical allusion “. I shoot at a range ( 1000-1500yds) and every time I get behind my rifle it looks like my retical is slightly canted to my natural eye. My bubble is absolutely level with my retical so I trust my level over my eye. The terrain and horizon undulat from my...

    TiborasaurusRex shooting a water bottle at 1072 yards with a .260

    I’m a retired diamond setter and the setter that thought me the trade told me doesn’t make any difference how you crack the nut as long as you get all the meet out. Not everything is set in stone. There are many ways to get where you want to go. We are too judge mental often times.

    Please list what Rex has wrong. Not to say he is the gold standard but at least he has helped many get started in shooting LR.
