    Built my own steel target... (UPDATED-TESTED)

    Re: Built my own steel target... (DIY-Pic heavy) Believe it or not, I made a hanging stand out of PVC for my 8" plates. They work, and if/when the legs or a cross-beam get fragged out or shot, I just stick another buck of PVC in the hole and keep shooting. Nice and light and they break...

    Gunsmithing Help: AR15 Bolt not locking back on last round

    Re: Help: AR15 Bolt not locking back on last round Is your gas tube going into the gas key deep enough to seal off well enough to get a full cycle? Is the gas key tight and the bolt staked into place? If your spring and buffer are the correct weights, I suspect you are losing gas pressure...

    Suppressors Teaching young females to shoot handguns

    Re: Teaching young females to shoot handguns Bronco's advise is absolutely spot on. I would add to have a trustworthy second instructor there that is not emotionally attached to either woman. Sometimes, it's easier for them to learn from a stranger they see you trust. I have used this...

    Semi auto super short range sniper rifle! UPDATE!

    Re: Semi auto super short range sniper rifle! Almost all guns render stria onto the case and bullet. It's a direct result of the machining processes involved in the manufacturing process and Locard's principle of transfer. A manufacturer doing this intentionally simply means it's easier and...

    Suppressors Which Handgun for 3Gun

    Re: Which Handgun for 3Gun Bla, bla, bla... If you have a basic 9mm, 40, or 45, just go shoot. It's 90% shooting and 10% gear that gets you there. Go shoot and worry about the gear after you have had a chance to determine what is going to work for you.

    how much work do you put into your plinking ammo?

    Re: how much work do you put into your plinking ammo? I reload 55gr Montana Gold bullets into 223 cases over 25.0gr of Tac for shooting out of my AR's with 4x scopes. It's 3-gun/fun gun stuff and I still get MOA or smaller from it. I rarely push it past 300 yds, but sometimes shoot it...

    DE 44 MAG LOAD ISSUES - ASKING FOR ADVISE

    Re: DE 44 MAG LOAD ISSUES - ASKING FOR ADVISE You're probably getting inconsistant gas amounts from using a powder that's too fast for what you are using it for. Most reloading manuals for 44 mag do not take into account that it's gas operated (if I remember correctly). Even if it's...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron S3 or Vortex PST

    Re: Sightron S3 or Vortex PST FWIW, I have two SIIIs (3.5-10) and they both have amazing glass and are 100% repeatable. I read the 6-24 SIII can have some issues with lateral changes can be limited at closer ranges as the reticle is near bottomed out (review on snipercentral). Makes sense...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold CQ/T or Aimpoint M4

    Re: Leupold CQ/T or Aimpoint M4 I found the Leupold CQ/B to work just fine in my last tour in Iraq. I have also used and owned a couple of Aimpoints and find them to work quite well also. I have a 1-4 Millet that works ok too. 1-4x scopes have come a long way in the last couple of years...

    What kind of reloader are you using?

    Re: What kind of reloader are you using? For rifle rounds, a single stage is fine. If you are going to reload pistol rounds you want a progressive. I reload on an RCBS Pro 2000, and have a manual head and a self-indexing head for it. I reload over a dozen different calibers on it; bulk...

    Bullet crimp for gas gun

    Re: Bullet crimp for gas gun I reload 223, 7mm-08, 308, 30-06, 7mm mag, and 300 win mag; semi-autos and bolt action rifles. I don't crimp any of them. Neck tension is enough to maintain the seated depth in the semi's and in the magazines of the mags. The only rounds I crimp are large...

    First bolt gun; am I on the right track?

    Re: First bolt gun; am I on the right track? Go with the Sightron. I have two and they are the best in that price range at the moment. I would recommend thinking about upgrading the rings and base too. After seeing just how much the base and scope can flex under recoil, I have a new...
