    Maggie’s Most impressive shot?

    Re: Most impressive shot? I once shot a bumblebee in flight with a .45 Auto ... Taking a Tactical Pistol class, doing drills shooting 3" dots at 7yds. I'd run dry, was reloading, and just as I started extending the gun toward the target I noticed this bee on a flight path right towards the...

    Tacticool back at boyds and shipping May 11th

    Re: Tacticool back at boyds and shipping May 11th Dropped my order today - also showing "processing". I do need to thank the OP on this heads-up - I've wanted a better stock for my Rem597 for a while now, and this looks like the ticket. Thanks!

    distance for iron sights on 22 pistol

    Re: distance for iron sights on 22 pistol A while back I used a friend's Ruger Bearcat against a 18"x36" hanging steel plate. I could routinely get 4-5 hits out of 6 shots at 200 yards. But seriously, like all pistol, start in close with very small targets (2" dots at 3 yds to start), then...

    Maggie’s Most Ridiculous Accuracy Claim You have Seen

    Re: Most Ridiculous Accuracy Claim You have Seen Dude over on Lightfighter a few years back claimed (in the Precision Rifle sub-forum, no less) to shoot oxygen bottles at >1000yds "all day long" with his Mosin-Nagant and iron sights - and said the pro snipers there were poor shots because...

    Savage Mark 2 F questions

    Re: Savage Mark 2 F questions Greg, this is a rare occurance, but I'm going to have to disagree with you. I don't agree that a new shooter should employ a less-than ideal trigger lest he become pampered or something. Poorer quality triggers lead to poor technique - anticipating the trigger...

    Need help with a Remington 597 issue

    Re: Need help with a Remington 597 issue My 597 had a bunch of pressure points all along the right side of the stock when I first got it - took forever to remove. Since then it still exhibits some dispersion when the barrel is cold - but it's really tight when it's warm (0.5"/50yd). It's...

    Range Report A bullet CANNOT knock someone/thing over can it?

    Re: A bullet CANNOT knock someone/thing over can it? A little common sense applies here - the bullet is fired by someone, who experiences recoil forces "equal and opposite" to the bullet momentum plus whatever rocket effect from propellant gasses after the bullet exits the barrel. If the...

    McMillan makes a ruger 10/22 stock???

    Re: McMillan makes a ruger 10/22 stock??? Greg, Pine is very soft - I think you'll find even the light recoil of a .22 will result in deformation of the wood. If you're going to go with pine, I'd guess you probably have to do a very thorough bedding job to strengthen the wood-metal...

    Movie Theater OK Army guys, help a Navy guy ouy.

    Re: OK Army guys, help a Navy guy ouy. Top = 1SG, nothing else. There are a LOT of 1SGs who hate it, a lot of others who like it / tolerate it. Depends on the individual. Never, ever heard a SGM/CSM or an MSG called Top (except MSGs who were former 1SGs, and they were being addressed by...

    Range Report Moon effecting external ballistics

    Re: Moon effecting external ballistics Of course the Moon's tidal effect with affect the flight of the bullet - any mass overhead will pull the bullet off course. That's why we always close our firing ranges anytime we have helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft along the gun-target line - we...

    Gunsmithing Bedding suggestion.

    Re: Bedding suggestion. Even easier - fill bedding materiel into a sturdy plastic bag (ziplock types work well), cut off the corner, and use as Greg said - you don't have to fiddle with keeping the cone formed. Works very well at filling deviled eggs, too.
