I have a used Raytheon Elcan Specter IR weapons scope that I am considering selling. It is in perfect working order and is lightly used. Just curious as to what is a competitive market price for this unit as there are very few listed on the net. Thanks.

I killed this doe this past Monday a.m. Nothing fancy other than the exit wound. She was quartered towards me. Shot was placed on shoulder and exited mid ways through her ribs. She was 60 yards away and I shot her w/ my .308 168 grain Remington Match ammo. The exit hole is the diameter of two...

My cousin got married over the weekend in Florida and for the bachelor party we went on a hog hunt...not that kind...LOL! An actual hog hunt. All-in-all we did pretty good. We ended up taking 7 hogs. 6 boars and 1 sow. Smallest was 70 lbs. and the largest was 350 lbs. Longest tusks were roughly...

My wife turned me on to it and I can't quit watching it. I am totally engrossed in the bloodiness that is portrayed in the episodes...love it. Anybody else following this series?

Any diver's out there? I have had the itch to get into it. Was just wondering what all is entailed in getting certified (ie. cost for classes/training, cost to stay certified, how often do you have to re-certify, what all equipment must be purchased, how much does that cost, what all equipment...

I have done a search and I have seen several threads regarding this stock. I have even talked to Tom in regards to purchasing a couple. I have a Tikka T-3 Lite .308. My question is does anybody have a T-3 Lite model in a Manners MCS-T4 that can post some pics (with the factory barrel). The...

I am about to acquire a secondhand NightForce NXS 5.5-22x56mm w/ Mil-dot reticle and MOA adjustments. I was looking at NightForce's website and see that they will replace the reticle on a SFP optic (which I believe this optic is, please correct me if I am wrong and it is a FFP optic) for $250 or...

I know both are made by Howa but are there any advantages to the Weatherby Vanguard Sporter? I am looking to purchase a fairly inexpensive rifle for deer season and I am torn between the two. I have found both of the above on gunbroker for reasonable prices. One reason I am torn between the...

I am still trying to decide on whether or not to purchase the above rifle for deer hunting this season. I am having problems locating the barrel twist rate for the Ranchland Compact .308. I have found conflicting specs on the net. Does anyone here know if it has a 1/10 twist rate 20"bbl or a...

I am in the need , or at least that is what I tell the wife, of a good fairly inexpensive rifle for deer hunting. I want something that can be beat around a bit and me not loose my cool over beating it up. I just want something that will be reliable and accurate enough for deer hunting. Longest...

I am working a possible trade for a rifle/scope combo w/ another member here on the Hide. I was trying to find a little more info on the ATN Professional Series 4-12x60LU scopes. I found a little bit of out dated info on the net and from what I can tell this particular model has been...

What is the difference in .223 and .223AI? What are the advantages/disadvantages etc. Do you have to purchase special brass to reload the .223 Ackley Improved? What all does the reloading entail? I keep hearing the term "fire forming"? Anyways, I am doing a build and I was originally going to go...

Alright, I just acquired a Fully Adjustable Mcmillan A3 stock. It is inletted for a Rem 700SA and the barrel channel is for a Broughton #7.1 contour barrel. I am planning on putting my Rem 700 in .223 in it. I was looking for a 1/7 or 1/8 twist barrel. My question is what other barrel...

Anybody know where I can find one in stock...ready to ship? Thanks.

I am looking to re-barrel my Rem 700 .223. It is currently wearing the factory varmint profile barrel (.894" OD) 1/12 twist & 26" in length. I am looking to get something in a heavier twist rate for the heavier grain bullets (ie. nothing over a 75gr. AMAX). I was thinking 1/8 twist what are your...
