    I'll be damned. 168gr Bergers available (cheaper than midway) and allowable backorder for the 180s. Order happily placed. :)

    Which brass/powder for 7mm Rem Mag

    Man, where are people finding h1000 and retumbo these days?

    162 Amax is back!

    One can hope. Bugs the hell out of me that you cannot backorder amax like you can berger 168s. (but not berger 180s...)

    Hornady and the 7mm 162 Amax

    Time for a thread necromancy. Midway sent out a notice that they had Amax 162s. about 10 minutes later I couldn't even get an order placed because every time I hit "review order" the total available went down (started at 5 boxes). What a screwed up website. Really wish they would simply allow...

    Fieldcraft Can You Spot the Sniper

    I learned from that article that snipers dig holes and pop out of the holes when they shoot. :/

    Cannot tell if this is a serious post. (yes I can)

    Ar trigger?

    I have a 2-stage stock trigger in my LMT and love it. I've heard that vanilla 1-stage AR triggers are what they are. Stiff by design.

    remington 700 7mm sendero

    Where are people finding anything of value to shoot out of them? Cannot find Amax 162s, cannot find Berger 180s, cannot find decent powder, nor decent match primers... :(

    Low end a Harris, High end an Atlas. What are you budgeting?

    What scope are you running on you 22?

    I see mine everyday, but my USMC 40X has a Super Target Spot on it. :)

    Radical Vortex fluting

    Had PT&G flute a bolt in a similar fashion to that for my in-progress build. Flutes are flat however.

    First rifle wants...

    Yeah, no way in hell I would advise .223 for deer, unless you are hunting those tiny key deer down in FLA. Where do you live? Will matter hunting regulation-wise when determining what you can use.

    Rifle Scopes Weaver 6-24x50 Classic Extreme Riflescope Illuminated German #4 Reticle Matte

    I don't have the 6-24x50, but I have a lower power classic extreme on my AR and it is built like a tank, clear and does what it was meant to do. No complaints whatsoever. (note: some think they may be a bit heavy, but I've never felt that an issue)

    Talk me into your favorite R700 Chassis

    Rather take that $200, get an Otis kit and spend the rest on ammo. I imagine you don't pack your full-length cleaning rod into the field with you, and if you do what issue would there be having a hex key along with it? But again, had I the patience and desire to toss money into a product with no...

    Talk me into your favorite R700 Chassis

    I would love to put one on order and ride it out. The $400 downpayment for such an outrageous lead time is what keeps me from doing so.

    Talk me into your favorite R700 Chassis

    What do you mean by "match up"? I cannot wait to get my new build into the AICS 1.5 I picked up. Added the adjustable butt and a couple spacers, and it is quite comfortable. Didn't feel the need to drop a couple hundred (or a few hundred) for folding or a pointless rail system that I'd never...

    Talk me into your favorite R700 Chassis

    If I had the patience of a saint, I would again go with a JAE-700. I had a JAE on my M14 and really miss it. Heavy? Certainly. Built like a tank and accurate as hell? Yep.

    Looking for advice on 1903A3 (new buyer)

    Scant stock with a non-circled proof stamp is a rebuild. May have simply been a stock swap, but the rifle is not 100% original as built.
