A buddy of mine had a mouse problem in his house and bought some of those plastic "easy set" mousetraps. While they are much easier to set than the Victor traps I've always used to, and the risk of snapping your fingers is much less, the downside is that: a) they are more expensive, and b) they...

I recently started reloading for my .308 with pretty good results and have been using CCI LR primers. I'm a little reluctant to mess with a good thing, but I'm having trouble finding them locally. Winchester primers seem to be everywhere I look. Wondering if anyone has made this switch and...

I was talking to a neighbor of mine the other day, and he told me his nephew (a security guard at a South Florida strip club) was involved in a shooting a few weeks back. Here's the article: http://www.wpbf.com/r/24632311/detail.html The scumbag opened fire in the parking lot after being...

Finally, after what seemed like forever, tonight was the start of the new season! I started watching last season, got hooked and then went back and got caught up on the first season. Anybody else watch? Looks like a sh**storm coming up!

I was talking to a friend yesterday who is just getting into long range shooting, and bought his first .308 bolt rifle: A Savage 10FP. He was in a large fairly well known shop in our area, and was shopping for a scope. The salesman asked what he was planning on doing with the rifle. My friend...

The only company I could find that makes extra low rings is US Optics, and I'd rather not spend $190 on rings if there is another good option out there. Anybody know of any other brand that makes these?

I have an HS Precision HTR in .308Win, and just read a review on the rifle that mentioned that the trigger was "completely adjustable". HSP's website gives no details on the trigger at all, and I've been unable to find any info anywhere as to whether it can be adjusted or not, and if so, how to...

I have a set of IOR 30mm rings, and hopefully soon, I will be mounting my new Viper PST in them. When I do this, I would like to start fresh with new screws, as these have been mounted several times, and the heads could be a little better. Does anyone know where I can buy these, and if they have...

I'm sure many of you have seen already seen this this email, but for those who haven't, it deserves reading: You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded and dying in the jungle somewhere in the Central Highlands of Viet Nam . It's November,11 1965. LZ (landing zone) X-ray...

I got a email from a friend yesterday. One of thos "pass it on" emails. Normally they're crap and I just delete them, but I feel the need to share this one. Can someone please tell me how I get a copy of this email from my "in-box" to a post on the Hide? I am somewhat computerally illiterate.

With all the good things I've been hearing about Vortex products lately, I've been thinking about picking one of these up. I know Vortex makes some decent glass at a great price, but a 25-75x for $199 does seem a little too good to be true. Does anyone have any first hand experience with one of...

Thinking about picking up a Konus pro M-30 riflescope in 6.5-25x44. Wondering if anyone had any experience with one of these and how they stack up in the "budget optics" heirarchy. I currently have a Millett TRS-1 and a Tasco SS. I'm happy with both, but thinking about picking up the Konus for...

I'm looking to pick up some extra mags for my DPMS LR-308, and was wondering if anyone had any experience using C-Products 308 mags in their DPMS rifles. I was just on their site, and the prices are great. Also, I see they are comeing out with a 25 rd .308 mag soon. Any thoughts or opinions?

I have this set of rings that came with a rifle I bought recently. There are no numbers or markings on them. From the top of base to bottom of scope tube, they measure .236", they are for a 30mm tube with 4 hex drive screws on each ring, and they are steel. Insides of rings are not smooth, but...

Here it is: HS Precision Pro 2000-SA HTR, wearing a Millett TRS-1 (until the Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 FFP is available.

Has anyone used one of these? I'm looking for a spotter for range work out to 500 yds (for now) for $200 or less. I read some customer reviews on these and people who bought them seem to like them for the price, but I'd like to get some more opinions if possible. Thanks.

I have a Benchmade fixed blade Griptillian that would really like to make an EDC knife. The sheath that it came with sucks.(I expected more from Benchmade, but I really like the knife itself.) I'm wondering if anyone knows of a company that makes an aftermarket sheath for that knife, or knows...
