    For your consideration, here are five excellent mil/mil scopes that have all come off rifles I've recently sold. The USOs are all older generation US optics models before their rebranding/updates around 2015-16(?). These sat on my safe queens, and are in excellent overall shape. The main...

    Good GSP recommendations?

    Hello all, I know a few of you are upland bird hunters. Do any of you hunt with German Shorthaired Pointers? My grandfather had one years ago and he was a great dog. I’ve enjoyed pheasant and quail hunting and wanted to get back into it, having my own dog this time. Any recommendations for...

    I’m not reloading for 6mm or .30cal magnums anymore so I’d be happy for these to go to someone who might load them. I’ve got 2500 DTACs, and 400 OTMs. I’d consider a cash offer but would much prefer a trade. I’m in northern VA so anything in DMV area could be FTF. Potential trades: - Ammo in...

    Help with 6.5Grendel OCW

    I need some help translating my OCW results. I’m shooting a custom 6.5Grendel gas gun with a 22” 1:8 JP barrel. The load is with 8208 XBR, Hornady brass, federal match primers, and Hornady 129gr SST. I only saw a couple light brass swipes and no other pressure signs. Not sure what these results...

    Gradous does it again!

    I’ve had Robert Gradous build my bolt guns since 2013 or so, and he’s never let me down. That said, work’s crushed me over the past 2 years and I haven’t shot nearly as much as I’d have liked. I’ve had this beautiful 260Rem by Robert in my safe for at least four months, never been shot...

    Rifle Scopes Best mounts for US Optics scopes?

    So I love Spuhr mounts and have them on a number of my rifles. However, I found a USO 3.2-17x for a great deal and couldn't pass on it. However, I ordered a Spuhr 30mm, 6mil/20moa mount and the USO has too much bulk (turrets + illum) to fit in the mount. I need recommendations for a one piece...

    Anyone else in the VFW?

    I was at the Nation's Gun Show this weekend perusing the new dream catcher and jerky offerings and the VFW had a table setup. I have a local post in Berryville, VA and have been considering joining for a while. Had a good chat with the guys, most over 60, and figured it was a good time to join...

    Show your shame: Safe Queens Edition!

    My name is ZLBubba, and I've got a safe queen. (The crowd murmurs "Hi ZL" in response.) My most shameful safe queen is a Tac Ops Lima 66. This is a holy grail gun that I waited two years to get, but in that time I acquired two guns that fit my LR bill perfectly, a 6Creed GAP-10 when I want to...

    Long range labor of love comes to fruition: LRI 7mm-300WM

    When I was in the Army, I found a 7mm Rem Mag at a local pawn shop that I bought and used for deer hunting in NC. It shot pretty well for a factory gun with a whip barrel, usually 3 shots into .75" at 100 yards with hunting ammo. Certainly good enough to kill the whitetail rats that are...

    Hunting & Fishing Any opinions on the Barnett Ghost 410 crossbow?

    I want to have a much longer hunting season this year, thus I'm going to take up archery season with a crossbow. I've been looking at quite a few crossbows, read many reviews, and it seems that in my price range, the Barnett Ghost 410 is what I'm looking for. I want to use this for whitetails...

    Natural gas standby generator for home?

    I'm currently building a home up in the mountains of Virginia and am looking for a standby generator that will run on natural gas. My house will be set up for 400 amps, but our daily usage will be much less than that. I really only need a generator that will run the essential appliances to...

    Resizing used 308 Lapua brass for tight Tac Ops chamber with small base dies?

    I recently picked up a Tac Ops Tango 51 and the rifle's a laser. The one problem I have is that my previously used Lapua brass with 155 scenars and 175 SMKs loaded up don't chamber well at all because they were fired in different rifles, some bolts guns and my GAP-10, all of which apparently...
