    Barrel wear or a manufacturing problem?

    IMO, too many variables to go off a post.......... This is what I would do & have done, like so many here, many times for rifles of students and friends. We are looking to diagnose a failure point. It may be your reloading gear, the scope, chassis, or maybe even you. All to often we blame the...

    Need Info on Remington 40-XS

    IMO , it's very niche. Some older people will pay 1500-3k, most people will walk away and don't care. Remington has destroyed thier historical "provenance" in the eyes of most people. Not all but ask many here, we saw them at their best and worst I love my Remingtons, deployed with many...

    MPA Rifle rings or one peice scope mount?

    a thanks for that, thought it was reversed. So, to cover the reasons why to fit the rifle first, regardless if it’s a red dot or scope 1 when you get into position, the fov of the optic should fall naturally to your sight. Think about how many times you see shooters searching for their...

    MPA Rifle rings or one peice scope mount?

    I would wait until you have the scope in hand and measure where your eye sits. Our faces are shaped differently, and what works for me may leave you stretching your neck or crunching it. I always fit my rifle first for my body, then I adjust where my scope sits both in height and eye box...

    MPA Rifle rings or one peice scope mount?

    @ToddM is spot on I love mounts better for the one piece design, and if you buy a reputable brand i.e. Spuhr, BO, Gray, Gieselle, NF, etc you can almost bet they are most times, concentric & square (I say almost because men and the things we produce are prone to error and imperfection) If you...

    Does anyone else get frustrated reloading

    I like the process and find it therapuetic. 1 Check and make sure your dies are locked properly (most times, this is the culprit....also, no need to overtighte, can lead to canted dies) 2 Don't rush, instead of doing all the steps at one sitting, break days up if you can. It's easier and...
