YOu can google that stuff. There are videos on Youtube. I don't know if they are any good, I don't have the patience to sit through them. Or you can look for books on the subject matter. I haven't seen my NRA Gunsmithing book in years, but I seem to remember there being a few articles on the...

Be advised that the market for Boat Paddle rugers is going up in price. That stock is worth double what it was just a few short years ago. I'm seeing what I consider beater rifles selling for $500, stocks for over $100. Used to be you almost had to give them away..... The Kaiser

Looks like someone's attempt at building a 40x, looks like it was set up for Palma, Service Rifle? Remington 700 action. Trigger has the old style safety, so it's either a 40x or 721/722. I'd say someone took a stock 700 V and put the 40x accoutrements on. Sights are worth some money...

Here is my 260 - Remington 700, Brux 1-8t barrel in a beefier version of the Remington Varmint contour, Jewell trigger with the safety in the guard, wedged into a H-S Precision LTR stock. Action and barrel work done by Nathan Dagley (SSG). This was the 3rd group through the rifle...

When I was much, much younger I bought a M700 in 7mm Magnum. It dated to 1962. I paid $185 for it at a pawnshop. Turned out the barrel was toast (3-4inch groups at 100), and like most of us, I sold it to pay bills. I did get $250 for it though. I have one of those flat sided triggers set...

I was at the local funstore today, and they had 3 of these in stock, a 7mm RM, a 300 WM, and a 30-06. This rifle has the Bell and Carlson stock, and a 26 inch heavy barrel. The stock had kind of a weird feel to it (texture) - sort of like a very stiff version of Styrofoam. Ergs were OK...

I size my brass via the 6x47 Forster full length die, using a copious amounts of lube (interior and exterior) and never lost a case in the process. The Kaiser

Don't recall the weight, but believe it to be the maximum for a 50gr bullet in 223. Also, 45.5grs in the 308 with a 165gr BT. As soon as it becomes easier to locate, I'll give it a whirl in the 260. The Kaiser

I get dibs on your 260..... The Kaiser

I saw a setup (can't recall who or where) but it clipped to the underside of the steering column. I thought that would be an ideal position for when in the vehicle..... The Kaiser

Greetings. A couple of years back, I bought a XCR Compact Tactical (.308) out of the classifieds here. I discovered that I really liked the platform (short and handy, yet solid and steady). A short time after that I got a smokin hot deal on an LRT in .223. This rifle I topped with a Vx-III LR...

Re: Looking for a mentor Thanks for the replies, Gentlemen. I guess here in ND, the most likely hunting use would be coyotes and deer. I'd like to go down south someday, and pig hunt though. Thought that might be a good reason to have one also, especially if the bag limits are...

Hey, I'll admit it, I've not given much thought to the idea of the usefulness of a suppressor for a hunting situation. I'm mainly interested for coyote hunting. There's been a few situations where I've had multiple dogs come in and at the first shot they scatter in every direction. Would a...
