    Might have to sell my rifle.

    It's not a certainty yet, but my mom is having some money problems and I might need to help. If so, my rifle stuff will be on the chopping block unfortunately. I've only had it since November and it only has 40 rounds through it. It's a Remington 700 SPS Tactical AAC-SD. I assume I could get...

    Can a decent laser range finder be had for $125?

    I'm on a real small budget for a laser range finder. I doubt there are many out there in my small price range, but maybe you guys know of some. I found the Bushnell Sport 450 for $125 and I was wondering if that would be an alright one until I can afford something better, or is there another...

    Shooting in snow?

    Is it okay to shoot in light snow? The reason I ask is because I finally got my 700 done, and I'me dying to go shooting, but I think its supposed to snow this weekend. If its just a real light snow that's not effecting visibility I still might go if there's no problems with doing so. Is there...

    Extremely Noobish Question.

    So I recently got my first bolt-action rifle, and yesterday I mounted to scope on it. And I noticed when chambering a round my thumb knuckle hits and rubs on the rear end of my scope. I assume that's just my lack of proper technique, so I'm just wondering, what is the proper way to do it? I...

    Rifle Scopes Is there a science to mounting a scope?

    I finally just got my base/rings in so I can mount my scope now. Is there anything special I need to know? I mean like placement of rings on base, or placement of scope in rings? Thanks.
