Hey guys I'm looking for some help with dating a Remington 700 I have. The serial number is 280xxx. The barrel stamps I'm finding are 9PK with a spacing and the what looks like 12 or 1S right where the barrel meets the action. I found some info on 1921-1972, but it doesn't seem to fit any of...

Quick question for ya. Could a guy neck size 06 ammo with a 308 win neck die? I'm kind of curious if anybody has ever tried or has any info on it? I sort of wondered since the bullet size is the same, but I really don't know if the tension is different. The shoulder is some what. That's what I'm...

Well I spent the week in a basic law enforcement sniper class. It was a lot of fun and I gained a lot of experience, as well as got a lot of experience in shooting in different weather conditions! We hit the range Tuesday and it got up to about 35 degrees with wind and freezing rain. Had pretty...

I really miss the little flashing pm flag that we used to have! Thanks for listening. I guess I'm just down a little and never thought about it until just now. On the bright side, I get to go to an le sniper class next week with a tacops rifle that's topped by an sb scope! Guess if I fail...

Gentlemen I picked up a M1 Garand recently and I have a question for some of you that are familiar with them. The 30-06 case length is 2.494" and I'm curious if there is an optimum number to shoot for on case length for these rifles? Is the a particular point where they are too long or even to...

Hey guys, gonna ask a little help here. I'm looking at putting a scope on my Mosin Nagant and I'm wanting some opinions here. I don't want to go long range type optics, but I'm unsure on what magnification range I should get. I feel like 1-4 is to low and something that goes to 10 is probably...

So I've never loaded for the 300 win mag and I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I'm gonna ask anyhow. It simply uses the same 30cal bullet as say a 308, correct? I've got a bunch of bullets and wanna use em for what's gonna be my new hunting rig! Thanks for any help and yes I was to lazy to...

I'm wanting to build an SBR and I have a couple quick questions before I start shopping! 1st, should I look at a barrel/matching bolt setup? The build will be in 223 and I'm going to use my existing rifle which is chambered in 223, but with a 16" barrel. I know when I did my grendel build I...

Anybody running the High Speed Gear pistol/rifle mag pouches on there vest? If so what do you think about them? I'm looking at going with these or possibly ITW Fastmag pouches, but looking for opinions. Pro's and Con's would be helpful. If you run the Fastmag setup, then opinions on those as...

1st range trip today with the new rifle! I'm excited to see if my investment will be as good as I think it will. Unfortunately it will only be 100yds today as I have to go to the local public range. I'll post a range report later when I get the chance.

So I just learned about these and I'm wondering where I can pick some up at? Anybody got any ideas? I did some searches and found a lot of stuff, but nothing that appeared to be a stocking supplier or seller of the actual target. It seems that mapping a reticle would be much simpler with this...

This is my first attempt at this. I bought this B&C M40 style stock and wanted to give the whole texturing thing a try. So I taped it off and had a hard time getting things to look nice and even using 1/8th inch blue fine line tape and then taping the rest off with some green masking tape...

Here awhile back I was talking about a cradle for a tripod to shoot off of and I was thinking of making my own version. I know this is not a professional piece and the looks and cost reflect it! I found the cradle on EBAY while goofing off one night and searching random words like tactical and...

Hey guys I'm looking for any hide dealers/vendors that carry Bell&Carlson stocks. I'm looking to order the M40 style to put my AAC-SD into. I can get one from stocky's but if there is a vendor here that has em then I just as well keep my money going to a support. I'm curious if anybody knows one...

Yes it's been covered, but not exactly what I was looking for. I found several posts for questions about what the best powder for the 308 is and lots of opinions. Primarily Varget, but some others as well. I've used Varget with pretty good results and have settled on a fairly decent load of...

So I bought a Sig 1911 and now would like to put night sights on it. I called Sig and may just buy a set from them. They said the sights are Novak cut. My question is are there multiple types of Novak cuts? I mean different angles or anything like that? I just don't want to go thinking Novak cut...

So I did some searching, probably not enough, but anyhow has anybody used the Cabelas XT1500 digital scale? It looks like it's possibly made by Lyman, as it resembles their xt1500 scale. I was thinking about ordering one, while it's on sale at Cabelas. It will be used for reloading 308, 223...

So I've been meaning to ask for awhile. I've got a savage 10fp, mounted in a choate tactical stock. I'm using a ken ferrel 20moa rail, burris xtr low rings, and a leupold mk4 4.5-14x50 scope. The problem I'm having is that I can't get my scope far enough forward to keep from having fatigue...

Well I'm in the market for opinions, recommendations, etc for a new flashlight. This will be used on patrol and must be dependable. I'm looking at a few, which I'll post later, but my requirements are, but not limited to, dependable, use RCR123A 3.7v batts (already have them) so 3-9v, I like the...

Anybody made a rest that they can attach to a common/basic camera tripod? I was thinking about this and was thinking something really simple like a piece of aluminum channel that I could attach to a camera tripod and then put something inside the channel, you know so it isn't just bare and...
