    14.5 mid-length Training Upper - Noveske, Rainier or what?

    Hey guys/gals, I'm in the market to either buy or build a 14.5 mid-length upper to train with and hopefully take to some run and gun events/competitions and would appreciate opinions and thoughts. Right now my criteria is pretty simple: 1. Accurate - hate to miss a target or score low...

    1000 yards is too easy??

    Hey all, I've recently been taking my Savage 10pc .308 out to a grand with 175gr black hills (soon will be using SW ammo). The past few times I've done it, the wind has either been at my back or right in my face. I get first shot hits on all targets from 250 - 1000 and can hit any of them all...

    New glass or more ammo? Opinions, pros, cons...

    Hey all, I just want some opinions on what to do with a little spare cash that I have right now. My current setup is a Savage 10pc .308 (20 inch barrel) with a Bushnell 3200 3-9x fineplex reticle hunting scope. I can now shoot a 5 shot group that's less than .5 consistently (brought it down...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Survival/hiking sharpening stone??

    Hey all, I'm looking for a good double sided sharpening stone to add to my Go bag/camping gear. I've seen the DMT double sided sharpener seen here: http://www.amazon.com/DMT-FWFC-Double-Diafold-Sharpener/dp/B00004WFTW I love the idea behind the Bear grylls survival knife sheath/sharpener and...

    Hunting & Fishing Who camps/hikes and hunts?

    Growing up, I would go with my best friend and his dad to New Mexico and hike for a week while we would hunt. I'm curious to find out who else does this?

    Bushnell 3200 10x ok for .22 trainer?

    Just as the title suggests, I'm looking at picking up a 3200 10x for a .22lr trainer. Has anybody used it within 100 yards and back out to 250yards? How is the parallax?

    Who has taken a Savage 10 thru a Tactical Course?

    I have a couple of Savage 10 .308s that I love. They both shoot sub moa day in and day out. I recently took one out to 750 to hit steel 2moa gongs and thought it was pretty easy. Then again, the wind was almost blowing right at me so it's not like I had to worry about wind drift too much...

    Rifle Scopes Weaver 3-10x or SS 3-9x?

    Hey all, I'm looking at a mil/mil scope to put on top of my .308 hunting rifle. With money being tight, I want to keep costs as low as possible. Who has looked through both scopes? How does the glass compare between the two for low light conditions? Eye box?

    Leg Press = Cracked Rib

    Yeah. Just as the title says. I was doing leg press with 460lbs and on my final two reps of my very last set for the day, I felt a small pinch, heard a pop, and racked the weight. Apparently this is more common than I thought (do a google search) but I've never known anybody that's done it...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Review Repository?

    Hey all, I really hope I don't get flamed for this, but I was doing some searches online for a Vortex review and found a pretty long thread on the ARFcom site. It wasn't about Vortex, but about 1-4x scopes. A guy led it off with a spreadsheet breaking down some key information that was easy...

    Rifle Scopes Hunting Scope Suggestions - Weaver, Vortex, Nikon?

    Guys and Gals, I need a new hunting scope now that I have retired my older Vortex to a .22 trainer. I'm putting this on a .308 hunting bolt for hunting. I'm trying to go light and small with this. I checked out LL's review of the Weaver Grand Slam 3-9. I'm diggin' the idea of getting a...

    Hey all, I really need to get a holster for my Glock 17. It's not a CCW, but I will use it for carbine courses and other training. I have a X300 Surefire. Any thoughts on a holster that I can use with my G17 and X300? Thanks

    Suppressors Glock rear night sight problem

    Hey all, I picked up a Glock 17 this weekend at the fun show. It's a Gen 3 with trijicon night sights. I got a great deal on it and talked the guy down because the rear sight is shifted all the way to the right with the sight hanging off the side. I looked online and saw people tapping the...

    Rifle Scopes Scope options for my new rifle

    Hey all, I just got a new rifle that I'll use for bench shooting but also for hunting because it's so light (compared to my tactical rifle). I was thinking about getting a Millet TRS-1 for it, but since I'm going to be using it for hunting too, perhaps I should get a SS 3-9x. I'm sure it'd be...

    Lightening bolt lift

    What causes a heavy or rough bolt lift? I own a Savage and saw the link that Axe posted that showed where one could sand/smooth to reduce friction and how a ball bearing inside of a .38 case could reduce contact with the BAS. Is the tough bolt lift caused by rough surfaces that need to be...

    Shooting through cover?

    I didn't know where to post this, but it seemed this might be the appropriate place. Mods, if I'm wrong, please move it to the appropriate forum. I did some searching and couldn't find any hits. I wanted to see if anybody has tested the range of their ammo on targets behind cover. As a...
