I need some advise. I have a custom Remington 700 308 with a 25" Bartlein barrel that shoots great. I get 2700fps out of it with FGMM 175 SMK, and 2760 fps with my handloads. I have decided to get a Surefire SOCOM 762 RC can that I want to use on it. The can will serve across multiple 308...

Please help me decide. I am looking at a semi-auto hand gun to carry with me while backpacking in bear country to back up my bear spray. Ergonomically, I just don't care for revolvers, so please don't advise getting a 44 Mag. revolver. I just don't like them and don't shoot them well. I much...

I've had a growing interest in this rifle platform over the years, and yesterday had the opportunity to get one. However, I'm a real noob when it comes to the M1 Garand, so honestly, I don't know if I got a good deal or not. It was a consignment rifle at my LGS. I don't have any gauges to...

Has anyone heard of this camo pattern before? Is it anything like Unicam? How is it different from Unicam? Back-story: on 10/1/12 I paid for a Eberlestock GS2 in multicam from an online vendor that shall remain nameless at this point. I had a deadline of 10/20/12 for a hunting trip. He...

Is this a good or bad idea? I would imagine it has a lot to do with the construction of the can?

Anyone run an SBR in 458 SOCOM? If so, how short? Reliability issues? Thinking of setting one up to take backpacking in bear country as bear medicine.

Has anyone noticed the site getting slower? I've been having a really hard time getting the pages here to load up on my computer. Most of the time they time out and won't load up. Other websites seem to load fine. I've especially had trouble loading posts, like this one for instance, as well...

Took the BMR 308 and my Mk12 mod o out to shoot yesterday. Was the first time out for the 308 this year. I had been having pressure problems with my handloads, and have been struggling to find an acceptable alternative. Nothing seems to be as accurate as my original recipe (Varget 44.4gr, 175...

Considering getting my first 1911. Seems like such a lot of choices. Priorities for me: -Reliable -Quality firearm & parts -Accurate -Price Intended uses: -Self defence -plinking -possible concealed carry, but not main intended use -possible competition down the road but not a high priority...

What kind of brass prep do you do for your precision AR15? I've tried the same load in BHA brass without much prep and had much better accuracy with the same load compared to PMC brass with primer pockets uniformed. Do you do any neck turning, flash hole deburring, primer pocket uniforming...

Any good ideas on how to clean an Ops Inc 12th model? I tried shooting some sub-sonic 22lr through my mk12 mod0 and now have a mess. I blew it out with some PMC 223 after I was done, but there is a LOT of lead build-up on the baffles. Some of the baffles look like they have had a few spots...

deleted by OP. Was a bit too "political".

How do I include an Excel spreadsheet in my post? I did chart with a graph that I want to post, but don't know how to do this. I read the FAQ which mentioned something about a "file manager" in the full reply screen but I don't see something like this. Can it be done?

Happy 4th, Everyone I made it out to the range today do to an OCW test for my 308. First a bit of backround: I'm was running 175gr SMK in front of 44.4gr Varget in Lapua brass. It is a pretty accurate load, and chrono'd around 2760 out of my 25" Bartlein barrel. But... pressure signs...

I was browsing a local pawn shop yesterday, when I came across this: The sales person said it was some kind of weapon laser device, but couldn't tell me any more specifics. He said it was a good deal. He let me have it for $180 cash. (There were actually 2 identical lights except for...

Has anyone had any experience with these scopes? I saw one in a store a few months ago, and it looked like a knock-off of a Leupold Mark 4 3.5-10x40 M3. Even the writing on the turrets looked the same. It was around $125 or so.

Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official, 'You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done.' The Chief nodded in agreement. The official continued, 'Considering...

Today I shot my first coyote of the season--230yd bang-flop. However, it was a bit of a hike back, so I hefted him up over my shoulders for the trek back to the car. I expected a bit of bleeding and to have to wash my cammies. But when I got home, I was a bit surprised how much blood there...

I recently placed an order online through PoliteSocietyInc.com for a can (9/3/09). I have had no communication from them about the order other than the automated email receipt. I managed to get through to them by phone once, but got a nebulous response of "we'll look into it" when asking about...

How much do you chamfer the case mouth? How do you keep it consistent between cases?
