    Badly dimpled brass - Noveske

    My brother bought a Noveske N4 off of Armslist and it is having an issue I have never seen or heard of. The ejected brass is coming out with large dimples all over the upper half of the brass. I tried reloads and factory PMC with the same results. I cleaned the chamber really well before we went...

    Mother's new 300 AAC

    My mom just got her sweet little 300 finished. I put the lower together and did the color fill for her. It matches the Magpul pink perfectly! It's a Mega Monolithic upper that cost a small fortune and a 16" Black Hole 1/8.5 barrel with polygonal 3 groove rifling. Now all she needs is some BUIS...

    Barrel Fluting = POI Shift

    I know this will probably turn heated, but I thought it was very interesting as I have never heard of this before. This is from the 2013 Sniper Magazine. Article by Tom Beckstrand “ ….. One design change that resulted from AI’s exhaustive accuracy testing and development for the PSR is the...

    Baffled: Brass won't resize?

    I just got 300 pcs. of once fired Lapua 308 from a Hide member today. I went home and threw them in the tumbler for a few hours then sat down to resize them. They will only size about .080 of the neck before it gets "stuck." Just to see, I sized two once fired Hornady's with no problems. The...

    Skunkworks 7 WSM *Updated Range Report*

    I finally got my new UGSW 7WSM. It is sweet! Thanks very much to Mike and Tim at Skunkworks, I'm sure you've heard by now that Mike is great to deal with, and it's true, very nice guy. The build took a bit longer than expected so he hooked me up with flush cups, side bolt release, and Atlas...

    Eagle Hybrid Bag Tassels?

    I just got my Eagle hybrid rile case/drag bag, and it has tassels at various points on the bottom of it. At first I thought it may be for attaching veg but it is on the bottom if you were dragging it. Any ideas on what they're for? Thanks

    Rifle Scopes Leica 1600 Won't Scan

    Just got my Leica 1600 two days ago and it won't go into scan mode. I was wondering if anyone else has this rangefinder and could tell me if I'm doing this right. Just like the instruction manual says, I press the main button once then I hold the main button down the second time for around 2.5-...

    Rifle Scopes For Alaskans, WWG

    I'm sure you all know how unprofessional Ken is from WWG. I was on the AK outdoor forum where someone asked if the SWFA SS was any good. He was spouting off at the mouth about them being junk, so I challenged him on it and he didn't like it. Here's his true un-professionalism: ME: "You claiming...

    Savage barrel stress spot?

    I am at a loss so I was hoping someone here might have an idea as to what's causing my problem. As my barrel heats up (like 3 or 4 rounds) there is a drastic shift in POI. I noticed this problem a while ago but blamed it on my 162gr A-max factory loads. It shoots really good at 100 and the...

    Range Report Finally got out today...

    It finally is in the upper 30's and sunny today, so I took a trip to the range. I sighted in at 100, then shot a 3 shot group. I then dialed up to 19 minutes or so just messing around, and dialed back down to zero (testing out the zero stop.) I lined the cross hairs up with my original 3 shot...

    My first attempt at camo

    I don't have the balls to paint my Nightforce, so I painted my Marlin 17 instead. Do you think it does a good job breaking up the outline? For anyone thinking about painting your rifle, I say go for it. It took quite a bit of work, but was very rewarding in the end.

    Rifle Scopes Elevation line on NXS question.

    When I got my 5.5-22 NXS, the elevation knob was set at the 4th line (40 M.O.A.) It seems kind of stupid to have 40 minutes already used up when they advertise 100 moa elevation adjustment. I wanted to see if this was a common thing before I bother them about it. Thanks in advance

    A little range report.

    It finally got warm enough up here in Fairbanks AK to sight in my new NXS. During the long winter I installed a Warne one piece base, Warne rings, and a 5.5-22 NXS NP-R1 on my Savage 10FP. I also had a smith skim bed the action since I was too scared to try it myself. It sits in a B&C Medalist...

    I'm going to be stationed at Elmendorf in August, and would like to find some shooting partners when I get there.
