    Rifle Scopes Scope ring torque specifications

    No it should not have any negative effect at 15 to 18 inch pounds with typical large centerfire rifles under typical recoil. The scope manufacturer should know how crappy they built their scope tubes. I have crushed only two.... a Meopta and a Vortex using a 25 inch pound tool made by Warne. I...

    Help me choose a caliber/barrel length for a suppressed deer gun

    Let me throw out another possible option. Henry 44 mag X series lever action has threaded barrel and its not that hard if you reload to get 240 grain bullets down below 1080 fps / subsonic.

    Bolt gun for the wife

    7mm08 is what my disabled friend uses for elk. I would look for a stainless tikka they don't leave the factory unless they group under 1 inch at 100 yds.

    308 vs. 6.5 Creed in 16 inch lightweight bolt gun for mountain trekking

    I understand where you are going with this but my take on hunting rifles is that any rifle, I carry into the woods needs to be able to stop the largest most dangerous game in those woods. I would hunt a Tikka 300 WSM or a TC Encore .375 H&H with folding stock and 22 in barrel (to get it over...

    Shooting Squirrels in the Head at 100 Feet Offhand...Fantasy or Reality?

    UMMM shoot squirrels with a 22 at 100 ft so only 33 yds. I'm pretty sure I could do that when I was a kid quite consistently. I also remember shooting snakes in the head quite often one was a copperhead that was in a tall pecan tree about 120 ft in the air. I think the barrels were better on...

    Quietest (least loud) 100-115 yard gun/ammo that isn't suppressed? Shotgun and AR15 are too loud for my yard (7 acres, neighbors aren't that close).

    Well, we have beat a path around the long end of the bush. The logical choice is 22 Magnum. Honorable mention: .357 magnum rifle, & 300 BLK with subsonic ammo I had a friend 40+ years ago who was Army SF and was dropped behind enemy lines in Vietnam with a 22 mag rifle. Quote: "There...

    Which 30 caliber for a 2nd custom build

    Do yourself a favor and walk into a few gun stores and look at what ammo is on the shelf for the calibers you are considering. If you cant find ammo and or brass you should draw a line through that caliber choice and move on to the next possible choice. I really see no reason to reinvent the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Thinking about getting a Glock

    H&K VP9 optics ready with Holosun 508T Plate #2 (feels way better in your hand) or Gen 5 Glock 34 with Forward Controls plate Trijicon RMR (glocks need a Dremel tool round sander applied to the back of the trigger guard ) The CZ I have no experience with but they seem to be well liked so...

    Can't get a 300 win mag zeroed, won't hold a group, suggestions?

    No

    Can't get a 300 win mag zeroed, won't hold a group, suggestions?

    Re-cut the crown on the barrel. Switch to Smith Vortex Flash Suppressor true the action, glass bed the action float the barrel. Use Badger Ordnance rings and base. Look at GAPrecision for a list of useful services.

    What's your fighting knife?

    When it comes to blades I prefer a Gransfors Brucks Axe.

    If you were only going to have one caliber?

    300 Win Mag .... I settled in on that years back and seem to be stuck there. I don't have those other calibers and my 45-70 is not really a long range gun.

    Caliber Choices - Comparison and Applications

    I find that 300WSM is relatively easy to load for. And reload one must if they want to shoot 190 gr SMK in a 300WSM. Nosler does load a 190gr Accubond at 2875 Ft per sec also a great bullet, a load very close to 300 WM Gold Medal Match 190smk at 2900 Ft per sec. So almost identical...
