Re: Blade Length Limitations in TX, AZ, NV, FL, CA For Florida, I do not see a blade length mentioned in the Statues. "Common pocket-knives" are allowed. Length must be established by some court-case precedent, but I am no lawyer. BTW, the concealed carry weapons permit for Florida includes...

I just read in the NRA High Power rulebook that muzzle brakes are not allowed. I was wanting a GAP build with a nice brake on it. My question is with the Badger FTE brake (or others), can they be removed for matches that do not allow it and re-threaded afterwards by the end user without much...

Re: Question.. NF reticle size comparison 2FP v. 1 This does not pertain to the specific NF scope listed above, but not all SFP NF scopes range at max magnification. The 8-32 and 12-42 range at 22 power. I do not have a NF yet, but my current scope has no audible clicks or tactile feel...

Re: Cheap spotting scopes I picked up a Barska Gladiator 25x - 75x by 100m for $199 at Optics Planet on sale. I volunteer as a Range Safety Officer at my local range and have a lot of opportunity to view many scopes, since there is a highpower competetition almost every weekend. I have tried...

Re: Newbie Question on Concentricity Equipment

Re: Beginner info You can never have too many books. The Lymans and ABC's are good. There are two books I keep going back to re-read. Handloading for Competition, Making the Target Bigger by Glen D. Zediker Precision Shooting Reloading Guide by Dave Brennan Zediker's book is packed with...

Re: Do you think Midway lies about there expecte date? I have been watching the Hornady LNL Concentricity gage since January. They keep moving the date 1 week or 2 weeks at a time. I finally called Hornady directly to inquire where I could purchase it. Hornady informed me it will not even be...

I currently use the Redding competition seater die, but I currently do not have any gages to measure runout. I have had my eye on the Hornady Ammunition Concentricity Gage, but I called Hornady yesterday and they said it will not be released until July, 2009. It is the only gage I have seen...

Re: Mils or MOA? After a few thousand rounds of practice on a setup, and I think any configuration can work very well for you. My next purchase wil be MOA/MOA for target accuracy. The smallest MIL scope I have seen is .1 Mil ( .3375 MOA). Many MOA scopes go down to 1/8 MOA (.037 Mil)...

I am trying to use the Stoney point tool to measure when the bullet ogive touches the lands on my factory .308 rifle. I am following the suggestion in the instructions and using a .25" wooden dowel down the muzzle end so I can move the bullet back and forth with the plastic rod on the tool and...

Re: My first ever reloaded cartridges. .308 Win help Congratualations! I just reloaded my first batch ever a month ago. Great feeling when it worked as it was supposed two. I started at 42.0 grains of RL-15 as well. I am still in the process of slowly increasing powder charge before I adjust...

Re: what powder now? I just started reloading with the desire for Varget. Impossible to find. I have been able the get RL-15 8lb jugs from Natchez on two seperate occasions in the last month. Also found RL-15 at PowderValley Inc as well. Now large rifle primers are another issue altogether...

Re: Tumble - before or after decapping? Both. I use a universal decapping die then tumble clean before using the match dies to resize. I then tumble to clean the lube off. Flash holes are inspected as I trim.

I am dreaming of a new custom build from some place like GAP or Surgeon. Most of my shooting time is on targets, with 300M up to 1000M ranges available to me. But, a gun for pure target shooting is not my cup of tea. If I am going to gain proficiency with it, I must also be able to hunt well...

Re: Savage 10FCP McMillan or Remington 700 5R? Able's usually carries the newest models, but all their pictures of Savage McMillan do not show the A-5 stock. http://www.ableammo.com/catalog/advanced...mp;inc_subcat=1 I wonder if the A-5 was the wrong picture shown in the Savage catalog by...

Re: Savage 10FCP McMillan or Remington 700 5R? Be carefull if you order the Savage somewhere. On the savage website at http://www.savagearms.com/10fpmcmillan.htm, the 10FP McMillan is listed, not a 10FCP McMillan. The 10FCP for 2009 has their new accustock (Not the McMillan), accutrigger...
