Looking through some things and found a set of 'Vortex RAZOR HD 35mm rings, 1-inch Height'. I have no use for them, so if somebody does, let me know. Merry Christmas

The family of fallen Navy Seal Adam Smith has been dealt another blow - his sister and brother-in-law were in a motorcycle wreck yesterday. They are both in stable but critical condition. The doctors will decide today whether or not her leg can be saved...

Yesterday evening a neighbor brought over his newly built 220 Swift. It is a Stiller action in a H-S Stock with H-S DBM. I had some loaded ammo so he loaded the mag and went to feed it through and it would not go. Always catching on the base of the cart. with the one below it. Thinking it was...

I have found myself with several pounds of H1000. I have been loading 4831 in my 300wsm and somebody ask me if I had tried the H1000 in the short mag. When looking for load data I find nothing unless I want to shoot 208 class bullets. I really like the 178 out of this rifle but would not mind...

If you have ever been around shotgun sports, this name should stand out. He was a personal friend and will be missed.

My wife has a 6.5 CM with ~1787 rounds down it. Rifle built by a local gunsmith and is good. She shoots 123 amax @ ~2875 fps. Her shooting the last 100 or so rounds has been atypical. If this were a bunch of guys, we would have somebody else shoot the rifle and move on, but I like to think I’m...

After ~7.25 inches of rain in the past 24 hours, seeing the splash has a new meaning!

We have had someone move into a place near our home. They have an eighteen year old son that was hauled in last night for stealing. His dad came by the house and told me about it, telling me this was not the first time, but that he never took things from friends or neighbors. I was not comforted...

A couple of years ago I had Marc re-barrel a rifle and was impressed with him so I told him I would have him build me a rifle. I bought the Stiller Tac 30 AW from Bugholes, shipped it to Marc and he did the rest. Told him I wanted it chambered in 6.5 CM and he was to do the rest. He...

Dad is a BlackOps 300wm. He is left handed and has IOR eyes. He is known around town as a straight shooter. Mom is an older UGSW (she likes younger men) chambered in 220 Swift. She is right handed and has NF eyes. Not only is she a looker, she is a shooter as well. Son is a BlackOps named...

Here is my BlackOps 300 wm. This rifle started as a build by Chris Matthews with Long Shot Rifles. It never would shoot to suit and when I would indicate this to Chris his reply was always “buying a custom rifle does not make you a good shooter”. After he told me this 4-5 times, I ask him how...

I have a 300WM that is to be delivered Wed of this week. I want to hunt with this as well as sometimes shoot with some friends at some longer distances. I currently reload for several different rifles, and while I sure don't claim to know it all, I feel I have a pretty good routine for the ones...

I have a couple of AAC 7.62 SD cans that use 51 tooth adapters. I want to move these from rifle to rifle, so I have several different mounts. I have one that locks up tight and the rest all have what I have come to call the AAC wiggle. My gunsmith is local and not only is he my gunsmith, he is...

I got a call yesterday from a lady that her husband had just recently passed. They had several firearms which she has decided to sell as she does not think she can take care of them. She has a dealer coming over Sunday evening and she didn't want to be there alone with him. She called the...

I’m sure this topic has been beat to death, but as all barrels are different, I will move ahead. My wife has a Model 10 Savage in 308, with a short 3000 rounds down it (factory barrel). This rifle typically shoots in the .75 moa range, some better, some worse. In the past week to ten days her...

I had a chance to get a used 8.5-25 Mark 4. It has MOA knobs, but mil-dot retical. When I ask the guy I bought it from what power it needed to be on to have the spacing correct, he looked at me like I had told him I just saw Elvis in the parking lot. Is this scope like several others, where the...

Early last fall I ordered 2 AAC 30 cal cans. Local dealer showed me what it would be as he had one of his own there. It was a QD 18 tooth. He said I could get QD brakes from AAC, so I did. The cans came in and we filled out the paper work with getting it in the mail 12-20-11. My checks were...

My neighbor was looking for a LA Rem. bolt. I ran into somebody that had just the body. No guts, no handle, no nothing. My neighbor said to get it as he had the items needed to put it together. After looking at it he brought it back and said he didn't want it. This is a sprial fluted LA 30-06...

I ordered a barrel from jim at Northland. It is in stock and will ship next week. It is chambered in 6.5 Creedmore. I can't track down a go gauge. Does anyone know where to look. I talked with Midway, and checked Sinclair website. Also called PTG and they are 4 weeks out (which is what Midway...

I have a Savage in the safe and with to much time on my hands I got to thinking I would get a different barrel for it. A call to Jim @ Northland netted me the option of 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5 x 47L. Both in stock and ready to go. Jim talked up the 6.5x47 so I was thinking pretty hard about it...
