this is my first real attempt at getting to 1000yds, i am still changing diapers, so i have a host of other time and financial commitments, my goal is to take my new savage f/tr and get it dialed in w/ a good load and set up some type of practice routine for trigger time and then dedicate a...

Re: simmons .44 mag they defintely make a sun shade for it as i have 3 of the scopes and they all have sun shades, but do not have any flip covers on them, just the factory covers.

Re: .260 vs .308? i am one of those die hard 308 guys, but i did try a 260 for a spell, for competition, hands down it is superior, the drop/ballistics all say 260, the biggest difference i found on the bench is torque and recoil, by the time i get my 308 pushing a bullet hard enough to...

Re: Harbor Freight Spotting Scope be a nice one to just leave out at the bench for them days when you don't want to pack everything up. just leave it in the plastic tub w/ the stapler and targets or something.

Re: Lee Die ?s they are fine for most things, their collet dies are extremely good in my opinion. allot of the shooters here are not content w/ fine, and are chasing bugholes instead of 1/2 moa groups, and that is a whole different level of reloading than lee's.... reloading is like...

Re: How come lower power scopes fortactical purpos try finding a pop up target that can shoot back at you w/ a 30x scope at 100yds, he could be using irons and have you dead before you ever found him in your glass. that is kinda the co-witness idea of irons and optics. i like to be...

Re: 300 ultra mag at a grand i just need to chime in briefly, when i thought i wanted to shoot long range, i went the 300rum route, asked llot of dumb questions etc. my learning curve: very few people can shoot that type of recoil sucessfully, rum's are expensive. i never made it insode...

Re: Millet Optics? i am curious how many people have had bad warranty experiences w/ the millett's. they defintely look like the cheapest 25x variable i can find that will have repeatable clicks, i am looking to rebarrel a savage f/tr into 6br, so recoil is not a serious issue, but it does...

Re: SWFA SS10X HD it is the internet, but since i cannot walk into a local sporting goods store and lay hands on a super sniper or falcon like i can most scopes, well yeah, internet does matter because i can't compare them myself, i have to look at other credible accounts of the scopes and...

Re: SWFA SS 3-9x42 after looking at the number of posts you've made figured you probably knew that already, and felt dumb for saying it, but if i didn't someone else would have. i am in the same boat, scavanging for info on the super snipers and falcons, hoping to get lucky and find one at a...

Re: Entry Level 308 savage.... but be aware, those barrel nut rifles are addictive. i bought the barrel wrench, i think i have about 15 barrels and 5 or 6 action now.... 10-12 stocks.... life is good when you are not paying a smith to set up your rifle, the money goes allot further. lots...

Re: SWFA SS 3-9x42 use the search feature.... was a discussion recently on them.

i know, go use the search function, which i will be doing, but in the big picture of reloading i have never loaded to mag length before and not sure what i might need to know that differs from bolt guns. rifle: armalite ar-10t 11.25 twist 24" barrel w/ brake leupold IV 4.5-14x50 lr/t. i...
