    Weatherby Vanguard

    Re: Weatherby Vanguard Also, the new rifles have an excellent trigger from the factory. One I got back in 2002 sucked. The new ones (think they started in 08) are adjustable from 2-4 pounds coming out of the box at 3. Try it before you buy it to be certain its a newer model. Just got a new SA...

    Gunsmithing Any Howa Gunsmiths here?????

    Re: Any Howa Gunsmiths here????? Are there different "thread" versions of the howa 1500? Just had a new barrel done (long action). My smith said it was standard thread. He specifically mentioned he could not do metric. Edited to say the rifle is a Vanguard. I think thats just a re-branded Howa.

    Rifle Scopes Can Quick Detach rings really hold zero?

    Re: Can Quick Detach rings really hold zero? I got QDs to use my iron sights periodically. The shift from removing and replacing the scope is slight - usually around .6 to .7 moa - but it is there. In my case, it is acceptable. Using Warns FWIW.

    Movie Theater Hurt Locker

    Re: Hurt Locker Worth a watch. Not a lot of hollywood political crap. The "Sniper" scenes were irritating. Still, a good solid war movie.
