Googles new AI bot has an interesting take on history. Why am I not surprised? Remind me again, who’s the racist?

Guys, for anyone that might be interested I posted in the rifle competition section about running a Vintage Sniper Postal Match. Looking to see if anyone might be interested Thanks Kevin

I’m looking to see if there would be any interest in a Vintage Sniper Postal Match? Here’s what I have in mind, 100 yards on a reduced target. Not everyone has access to a 300 or 600 yard range. Going by the CMP rules for equipment and time limits for competition. Shoot one match per month...

I have been running into a problem with Ballistic AE, in that after putting in all the data, the numbers just don’t match up. Example, I set up my Springfield 03A1, loading 168’s and IMR 4895, chronographed the load and uploaded to the program. I get it out on the range to find out the come ups...

I was given 500 Hornady 308 168 hpbts. They are in the old cardboard boxes amd had been sitting for quite some time. A good number of them have some kind of crap on the noses, as in the photo. Some have actaul mold on them. My question is can I do amything about that? Most of the heads are...

We made the trip again to southern New Jersey to shoot a 600 yard F class Sunday. This time around Joe shot his Springfield 03A1, I shot my M40A1 copy. Conditions were very squirrelly, but we gave a good accounting of ourselves. Looking up and down the line at all the rigs and gear, I felt like...

My buddy and I took our rifles to an f class shoot in south Jersey yesterday. I shot my M40 copy, he had his M70 clone. We wre on different relay so I didnt get any photos of his rifle. We were most definitely outclassed by the competition, but the target went in the pits every time I pulled the...

Today was vintage 22 day at the range. And being the masochist’s we are we decided to shoot at 200 yards. My buddy Ken had his Winder musket in 22 short and mine is a Springfield 03, converted to 22 long rifle. We run the “no balls challenge “ an 8x10 target at 200 offhand. Good times!

This morning my shooting buddy says, I have some Lake City Match for sale, you in? Two choices LC68? Or LC72? $1 a round, yes yes I’m in

Thanks for the help guys, I was given a bag of part for Rem700’s. In the bag was this trigger. I dont have any idea who’s make it is and was hoping aomeone here might know. Thanks, Kevin

The nikon 3-9 rimfire is discontinued and I’m looking for something to put on my newest squirrel gun. Any one have a recommendation? Something similar to the nikon? Thanks Kevin

I have a bunch of once fired LCMatch brass, once fired in my rifle I should add. I was going to resize it earlier, and was having one hell of a time! I use a full length die set to bump the shoulder back a couple thou. I lubed the cases as usual and the die, I use Hornady spray lube for...

I just mounted my vortex on my 308, there is a space between barrel amd the objective but it’s really close . There is a clearance enough to slide a folded piece of paper under it. My question is, is that ok? How close is too close? thanks, Kevin

I have a mosin nagant sniper rifle. The smith who mounted it left me with a problem. A) theres a gap between mount and reciever. B) the screws (circled) keep loosening no matter what I try. I was thinking why not try silver soldering the mount like the Germans did with their mounts and scope...

Went to the gun club today, Tuesday, and was treated to a couple hours of fly overs by a Mustang, a Spitfire, and a Zero. At one point the P-51 and the Zero had a dogfight. I don't know why this would be taking place on a Tuesday afternoon on the east end of Long Island. Near as I could make...

This is my 03 Springfield a low numbered receiver, built in 1905. Rebarreled in 1942, and then used for years as a VFW parade gun. Years of firing blanks thru it and not cleaning it left the barrel ruined. Over cigars with a long time friend and shooting buddy, we got to talking about making...

We ran another military bolt gun shoot today, we do this twice a year. Its open to any military bolt action rifle in as issued condition. Offhand, bench, and prone. These photos are from the last stage. I meant to get more photos but ended up being a line officer along with match director...

I have a Mosin PE sniper mount and for some reason the screws on the mount itself come loose after about 20 rounds. I'm pretty sure the threads were not done all that well to begin with so I'm stuck with it. I have tried the blue(breakable) loktite and it's not working. The was I see it I have 2...

I have been handed a stock for my Win 52B and as you can see it's been buggered up pretty good. I want to fill the bottom section amd then fix that buttstock spacer disaster. I was thinking Bondo and some screws or nails for it to grab onto? Any suggestions, help would be appreciated. Thanks...
