    need a flinching cure

    Re: need a flinching cure Practice is always a good way to remedy anything, but going lighter and shooting more is just going to make you think about how much harder your .308 hits than a .22. Get something that will really rock you. Like one of those savage 12GA bolt guns and run rifled...

    Gunsmithing Do I have a bedding problem?

    Re: Do I have a bedding problem? Just for next time after you pull the action out of the stock if something falls down into the recoil lug slit and you did a tight bedding job it can throw off you point of impact when you torque the action down.

    Gunsmithing rifle stock

    Re: rifle stock Good luck with this. I just went through the hunt to put a stock on my savage 110. The availability isnt the greatest, just depends on what you are looking for. I ended up going with a boyds laminate varminter. Still had to take out the barrel channel and do some other...

    223 vs 22-250

    Re: 223 vs 22-250 If I had to choose I would go with the .223. Seems to me that the 22-250's just tend to be a little more picky with the reloads. You try a dozen and one shoots. Most of my experience with the .223's is that it doesnt matter what powder you put in them and if you are 8...

    Savage 110 300 Win Mag barrel twist??

    Hey all, I picked up a Pre-accutrigger savage 110 tactical in 300 win mag over the weekend. Rifle was in rough shape but is cleaning up well. I just wanted to know if anybody knew the twist in these. From what I can find they are 1-10" but not positive. I also need to get rid of this...

    Rifle Scopes eye dominance

    Re: eye dominance I have the same issue. So does my brother. The best thing is that if you want to shoot right handed just shoot more, keep shooting more. It will become ingrained after a while. One trick that we both did when we first started shooting was too put tape over the left eye of...

    Hunting & Fishing Good Topic--Hunting--What caliber for what game?

    Re: Good Topic--Hunting--What caliber for what game? With the exception of 7,10 and 11 I would have no qualms about carrying my .260 with proper ammunition. For 7, .338 Win Mag; 10, 22LR or 17HM2, No idea for #11, maybe a tribe of aborigines armed with spears.

    Hunting & Fishing Wanting a Varmint rifle

    Re: Wanting a Varmint rifle +1 on the .243. I like all 3 cartridges, killed chucks with all of them. The twist on my .243 wont let me get over 75gr bullets but it shoots everything else. 22-250 can be picky at times, and the .223 just runs out of steam for me. This being said my personal...

    What can cause "key-holing"??

    Re: What can cause "key-holing"?? twist seemed to be the reason it happened out of my .243 and my 22-250. Went to lighter bullets problem solved. Sure there are other reasons but this was the best explanation I have.

    Rifle Scopes Fixed power scopes

    Re: Fixed power scopes Too many pros and cons for both, comes down to what you want. For my hunting guns I love fixed powers. Nothing to piss with, I pull up and its GTG. For my longer range guns I like the variables, the flexablility. Sure you can shoot any range with a fixed 10x, but if...

    What is the most popular model of rifle in Amerika

    Re: What is the most popular model of rifle in Amerika From what I have seen I would have to say the Winchester 30-30 lever. Seems once deer season rolls around millions come out of closets in PA. And every dutchman in the state owns at least 2 of them. Every time I see a buggy parked...

    Bell & Carlson Stocks (Need Advise)

    Re: Bell & Carlson Stocks (Need Advise) I just went from a B&C to a McMillan, I just like the feel better and the gun balances better with the heavy fill. No changes in accuracy with the gun, but its off to get bedded on monday and maybe this will help some. Its just going to come down to...

    $500 Budget

    Re: $500 Budget Do some shopping around. There was a CZ452 HB sitting used in a local shop with a leupold rifleman sitting on it for $375. That would leave you plenty of shooting money and if you wanted to get something higher power you could trade it off. Tax season always seems to be a...

    Savage 10 .243 for long range and deer gun?

    Re: Savage 10 .243 for long range and deer gun? If I were to pick from the three for an all around gun I would go with the .260. I sold my .308 cause it was a little heavy for shorter range varmnits and went with the .243. Still have no problem getting mid-range shots with it. I love the...

    Reloader 15 for .243 Win.

    I am wondering if anybody out there has some loads for RL-15 using lighter weight bullets. My twist wont stabilize much over 75gr and have been getting really good results pushing the 58gr V-max molys with varget. I just cant seem to find much out there for 55-70gr with the RL-15, 70gr and up...
