    We're BACK !

    It's good to see The Old Hide resurrected. Frank ALWAYS has a lot on his plate. Patience is key, good things take time, don't break his ballz. Boy do I feel old.

    GunsAmerica supports TR law suit against the Hide

    Hmmm, where to start? I've know Frank since late 2001, when we had member numbers mine was in the low 300s. He's been to my home, we shot the Carlos Hathcock Match together numerous times and I made the first 3 runs of SH Kopfjaeger Team shirts. Frank has always been open to helping new guys...

    How long did the last ammo shortage last and thoughts about this one.

    I admit it...I had a panic buy moment. Brought a brick of CCI standard and a 100 pack of Mini-Mags for $43 inc. tax. I have still bricks of Blaser at under $9.00 but I wanted to get in on the madness.

    I got demoted.

    3K plus post of share absolute brilliance was lost to the current members. And I have PM from 2008. Losing the 3 digit member number kinda hurt... But change is...good.

    Optimal 6BR length and twist 107SMK

    Re: Optimal 6BR length and twist 107SMK Greg, I had far too many rifles at that time...did I just say that? The barn burner we discussed was a fluted #7 contour 26" 8"twist 22-250 improved which was re-chambered to 22BR at a hair under 25". Case capacity rivaling the Swift and you better...

    Optimal 6BR length and twist 107SMK

    Re: Optimal 6BR length and twist 107SMK Greetings Brother Greg, For 200yds...I would humbly suggest an 1-8" twist barrel chambered for 22BR. I've had great success with 69gr SMKs. I recall kicking an 8"twist 22-250 around with you some years back. I've sold that Savage but ONLY because of...

    22 WMR

    Re: 22 WMR I had several 77/22 mags. All were OK but the stocks sucked. Kelly McMillan now makes a great stock for the 77/22 varminter but I've settled on a Rem.700 in 221FB with #5 contour 19" Hart barrel as my smallest center-fire. It's accurate enough that the Ruger 77 K-Hornet in a...

    Mike Walker---Father of the Remington 700

    Re: Mike Walker---Father of the Remington 700 The only thing I have left to build is a 6-250 Walker. I had a early well used Rem. 40X in that caliber but Lyme's disease forced me to sell it with several others about 12 years ago. It's probably one of the rarest 40X's. I'd like to find...
