Hey everyone, just wanted to share some photos I've taken of my babies. If you know you know, guns and cameras are both expensive hobbies but I get a lot out of both. Critiques welcome, I'm still finding my niche but having a blast so far. These image files are yuge so standby

Rifle is a 700 7mm-08, 9.25-twist, 26" SPS Varmint. It shoots great with my current load, but the issue I have, like many others, is that to load the bullet (162 ELD-M) .015 off the lands, I have to load them over magazine capacity. I'm at 2.960 right now. My question is, if I switch to a...

Priced competitively under the RPR, sub-MOA guarantee, and available in .260. Hopefully Remington pulled their head out of their ass for this one. I will say, anyone else triggered by the fact they claim it is "silencer" ready?

I can't seem to get enough friction/grip to load the bipod properly, shooting prone on grass and sitting off a concrete bench. Unless my idea of "loading" is grossly off, is there any one that makes more tacky/grippy feet for Harris bipods? Or do I need to entirely switch systems? Thanks!

Rifle: semi-custom Remington 700 7mm-08 Varmint, 26" 1-9.25 barrel, ~400 rounds through Load: Winchester brass and primers, 36.5gr Varget, 162gr ELD-M loaded .015" off the lands = 2400 fps, SD in low-teens I developed this load with the ladder test method at 300yds and it has been very...

A while back I bought a box of 7mm Hornady ELD-M 162 grain bullets, in early June or so. Finally got a load worked up, and I went out recently and bought another box. However, upon closer inspection, they weren't the same... The exact same item number (#28403), but the boxes displayed a...

Has anyone had any experience with these yet? Look pretty solid to me. Specifically I'm thinking about the 22" eventually, but that amount of coin is a little above me right now. Thanks!

I'm doing some load development for my rifle (custom 700, 7mm-08), and have determined that in order for the bullets (162 Hornady ELD-M) to be set .015 off the lands, my OAL is 2.963, which is much too long to fit inside either the internal box mag, or AICS mags which I will be switching to...

I am brand new to reloading on my own, I've observed a family friend do it a few times so I understand the generalities, but on my own I have no experience. I've read through the tutorial stickies here and I am still a little overwhelmed, my next step will probably be to watch YouTube videos...

West Point has had the tradition for a while, and this year the better academy is finally picking it up. Base pistol is a Colt 70 Series 1911, you can see the detailing below. The pics aren't mine, I apologize for their quality but this is what we were sent. Price we've been told is $1450, and...

I recently won via online auction a Remington 700 with a heavy 26-inch 7mm-08 barrel and HS Precision stock. The only oddity is that the receiver is marked "SPORTSMAN 78" on the left side opposite the action opening. From the research that I've done these "Sportsman 78" models were built back in...

For months I have been designing my ideal precision rifle in my head, all based around one stipulation: chambered in 7mm-08. I have hunted with this round my entire life, and I have been thinking of building a long range (out to 800-1000 yards, hopefully, give or take) rig on a fairly tight...

Hey shooters, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with IMI and or Itac Defense holsters. They appear to be one in the same company, but I am not totally sure. I am looking to get a polymer holster for my CZ-75 BD in 9mm (holsters for which are few and far between, for those of you who...

It isn't every day you meet your heros, but today was one of them for me. One of my best friends throughout high school is the grandson of Maj. John Plaster, who happens to live less than 25 miles away from me. Today I finally got the chance to go shooting with the man himself, and it was a...

I wanted to start getting into the handgun game, so I started doing my research. I had been shooting rifles (deer rifle and tacti-cooled 10/22, nothing spectacular) primarily and wanted to get some pistol experience. I am very excited, this is my first pistol and I had some specific criteria...

Hey everyone, I have been goose and upland hunting for a few years now, but I have a question for you guys about how to cover my shotgun barrel: obviously, duracoat is very strong, tough, and fairly inexpensive. Many guys on here sing its praises all the time. This isn't that part I am worried...

...that thinks he knows everything about guns. For me it's the kid in my homeroom class that brags about his kill streak on "COD" and refers to the AUG as the "ogg". He also thinks this is the ultimate weapon, and refers to any others as "for noobs". He thinks iron sights are better than scopes...

ok, so I outgrew my M70 youth model 7mm-08 a couple years back, so my dad got a aftermarket boyds laminated stock for it. well, the dang thing didn't fit great, so I had to cut and carve and sand away at it for a while to make it fit. Once I got it semi-fitted, I left it as is for a while. I...

Here is my idea: M700 action, custom medium-bull barrel in 7mm-08, (both matte black, of course) HS Precision M24 stock, badger ordinance extended mag, lower the trigger down to around 1 1/2, 2 pounds, Leupold Mark 4 rings/bases, Mark 4 4.5-14x50 mil-dot scope, teardrop bolt handle...
