    2008 GMC sierra electricity problem. any experts?

    Re: 2008 GMC sierra electricity problem. any experts? When you get in the truck in the morning and turn the key to "ON" but without starting the engine, is the clock keeping time or is it reset at that point? Is this the clock in the radio? I assume this is the only one but not sure...

    anybody got a civic si?

    Re: anybody got a civic si? I believe they switched from the tried and true "B" engine after 02, so it surely has a proven engine, not to say the newer versions are bad. Takes a hit at the pump with the si version if you are only after MPG's over the other models though. Wifey was after a...

    Would like to see pictures of Broughton #6 contour

    Re: Would like to see pictures of Broughton #6 contour Hydro, Jered and his crew built this one for me also. Sorry it's not a #6 but a #7, which is about .012" larger at the muzzle...not much but complete it weighs in at 16.3 pounds so just some food for thought if you plan on slinging it...

    Rifle Scopes why does everyone insist on the 10x SS???

    Re: why does everyone insist on the 10x SS??? GSR...if you are shooting 200 for score, the X-ring is pretty small, I find turning mine up around 20X or higher helps, but at some point mirage becomes an issue. However just plugging away at any old paper target at 200, the 10X is plenty...

    Decent security cameras

    After my neighbors vehicles were entered last night, I have the itch for a wireless nightvision security camera, or two to compliment the floodlights. Looking for pros and cons of this type of system and not too concerned about cost but would like to keep it in the triple-digits...cannot be...

    Favorite Brew Thead.

    Re: Favorite Brew Thead. I haven't met a beer I didn't like, but for sake of discussion, I have currently been enjoying some Tecate and the variety pack sold at Costco, which has Heffeweisen, pale ale, German lager which is off the hook, and some Amber ale. Sam Adams seasonal brews are...

    Re: Does Anybody Remember the FX movie described below Sounds like it could be "The Marine" but I don't think his wife was killed....don't remember. O.K., I just re-read the 1st post, not The Marine.

    why are lee presses so cheap?

    Re: why are lee presses so cheap? I hear ya. I figure the collet die gets tossed around alot and gets good write ups, as well as the classic single stage press, rest is really hit or miss but will get the job done, their handgun dies have never given me a hiccup. I think alot of people get...

    why are lee presses so cheap?

    Re: why are lee presses so cheap? My Lee classic press with a collet die will give me less than .001 runout if my prep is right, just the fact it won't make my hard work any worse. They make these cast presses out of used railroad tracks, guess thay have a plentiful supply. I never use the...

    making 260 brass

    Re: making 260 brass I take new 243 Lapua brass, run it over a 6.5 mandrel, then turn the neck/shoulder junction just a tad then form the case. After the first firing it is formed and the neck/shoulder had somewhere to go, no donuts yet.

    Lapua Brass

    Re: Lapua Brass Call your smith and see if they can give you the neck dia from the reamer they used. Chances are they can even give you the max neck dia you want to have since they are cutting the chamber. The first firing is going to give you the formed case, take measurements from that. If...

    Rifle Scopes USO Clarity

    Re: USO Clarity On my 8-32 NXS, if the focus is clear, I can move my head around a bit and it's off just a tiny bit. Of course when I adjust to where the cross stays put it's a bit fuzzy. I have heard this before with some of these scopes, but I agree parallax free trumps a tiny bit of...

    Rifle Scopes Why does 20 MOA base not give 20 MOA Elevation?

    Re: Why does 20 MOA base not give 20 MOA deflectio I had that exact same dillema when I was having my 260 built. Started with a Monarch, then debated the 12-42 BR, ended up with the NXS solely for elevation. Mine is roughly 11.5 MOA from top to get to 100 yds. Depending on the reticle you...

    Range Report Bullet drift issues??

    Re: Bullet drift issues?? Also if you are getting bipod hop the barrel is twisting over and will surely send your shot wherever. Or don't use the pod and place in a solid front rest, remove as many variables as you can.
