    Question about a Parker-Hale M85 in 7x64 Brenneke (No, I'm serious)

    I'll be curious to see how it shoots. If it does well, it's $500 well spent. :-)

    Question about a Parker-Hale M85 in 7x64 Brenneke (No, I'm serious)

    It is a Mauser, so it's not an 82. You're correct on that. The rest just seems sort of jumbled. I'm beginning to think it's a custom order or something. Fiveshot, I have a grand total of $500 in it at the end of the day, I don't think I got hurt.

    Question about a Parker-Hale M85 in 7x64 Brenneke (No, I'm serious)

    Hey folks, I have the opportunity to trade into what I stated above. It's in about 99% condition, and has an "Ultima" scope on it. The glass is identical to that of the Kahles that I have on my SSG, both are 6x42, but this one is not a BDC scope. I'm not worried about the chambering. I...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 10mm replacement barrels-KKM or Lone Wolf?

    Re: Glock 10mm replacement barrels-KKM or Lone Wolf? They are old, probably 1st generation. They were bought when they first came out. Based on what you all have told me, the Lone wolf is the way to go, where does one get the spring? The guns will be shooting warmly loaded Speer 180gr GDHP's...

    Hello all, I just came into one of these, and I have read a lot of contradicting posts. Some are not impressed, others seem to think it's the best thing since sliced braed. Do any own one? Mine is brand new, wood is amaazing. Have not had the time to actually put any rounds through it...

    Bullet crimp for gas gun

    Re: Bullet crimp for gas gun Your seating die should give you all the crimp you need. I load in 7.62 for an M21, an L1a1, and a GAP M40a3. I don't change crimps for any of them, just a light neck crimp. At the risk of starting an argument, it's my belief that a heavy crimp does nothing...
