    Long Range Ar15?

    Re: Long Range Ar15? I shot a 1/4" internet commando (3 round) group with my WOA at 100yds w/factory ammo, they are fantastic barrels. Definately don't skimp on the barrel if you looking for something accurate at 600 yds. A chrome lined delton or standard GI will not compare to a nice...

    Range Report 204 long range

    Re: 204 long range I was shooting 3" groups with little wind out to 450 with my stock rem sps in .204. I sold it however and went 223 so I could shoot something heavier at that range. Mine is for coyotes so I felt 75gr would be better. Accuracy was not a problem with the .204 at that...

    Range Report Hornady 75gr TAP questions

    I just went out this weekend, I have some 75gr TAP ammo from my last AR build which was 1/7 twist and it shot fantastic. I thought I'd try it through my new savage 1/9 twist 26" barrel. I wasn't sure if it would even stabilize through a 1/9 after reading a few articles. Anyway it shot pretty...

    Hunting & Fishing hunter busted for bolting antlers on dead doe

    Re: hunter busted for bolting antlers on dead doe Well I guess it's better than leaving it lying where he shot it when he realized it was a doe. It doesn't sound like he was trying to win a buck pole contest or anything. Although I don't feel sorry for him, I can respect the fact he was...

    Hunting & Fishing Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down?

    Re: Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down? I already have an AR that I shot a nice fox with this winter. The AR is definately light enough but I have access to several farm fields where the shots get longer and we've had a lot of success over the last few years in the fields. That's why I...

    Hunting & Fishing Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down?

    Re: Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down? My other thought is find a shorter 1/7 barrel and buy it then sell off the 26" to recoup some money?

    Hunting & Fishing Coyote barrel suggestions, cut it down?

    I came upon a great deal on a brand new savage model 12 and I'm turning it into my coyote gun. I'll try and get some pics up, it's a .223 1/9 twist 26" fluted stainless barrel. I have it in a B&C medalist stock w/Nikon 3-12 monarch scope. My last rig (SPS .204) I was easily shooting out to...

    Range Report Input question on pesja ballistics.xls

    I downloaded pesja ballistics.xls onto my blackberry and it appears to be going to work for me. There's an input field for the MOA drop and if I'm using 1/4" clicks at 100yds on a Nikon Monarch what should I be inputting in this field? It states "Inches at 100 yards per MOA graduation on scope...

    Suppressors Need a supressor review for M1A

    Re: Need a supressor review for M1A Our dept has one I believe it is AAC I'll have to check, it works great but we don't shoot subsonic ammo. It's basically a 22 short sound shooting federal gold match. No reliability problems, but starts throwing debris back at you through the action after...
