    Why Isn't the 7mm more popular? 7mm Rem Mag vs .300 Win mag

    Oh Oh reloading your own is a must! Hows the costs on reloading? I'd imagine it's pretty close

    Why Isn't the 7mm more popular? 7mm Rem Mag vs .300 Win mag

    Why isn't the 7mm mag more popular? At my local stores it's the same price or cheaper than .300 ammunition, it goes subsonic at greater distant, match bullets have a greater ballistic coefficient, and they retain more energy past 1000 yards. I hear they don't kick as much as well. Should I get...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Dirty 1911 Pictures

    I fired 100 fmj before the mud, and then 100 after. And there was 400 cast lead rounds I reloaded and fired last time, I ran a bore snake through the barrel but that's it. I think it's been longer than that since I've cleaned it though. I have some auto grease in it and it runs smooth. I only...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Dirty 1911 Pictures

    Took this puppy out shooting today, It started life out as a $400 stainless springfield mil spec I bought a 6 months ago, someone's "gunsmith" friend dropped in a wilson combat trigger and lost springs and pins (even though it still functioned). So I took the liberty of finding replacement...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA SS 3-15 or 5-20?

    I'm getting into police style marksmanship competition (tactical shooting usually within 300 yards, moving targets, partially concealed, a little faster paced) and I'm trying to decide which scope I should get. I will use the rifle for hunting and long range targets as well so I want the scope...

    Rifle Scopes What Scope?

    I kinda like the kahles but are those turrets adjustable? And that swfa does look like a good choice... might it be to much magnification for me though?

    Rifle Scopes What Scope?

    I was actually looking at the nightforces first, but between the 2nd focal plane and 30 oz; I'm looking for something a little more practical.

    Rifle Scopes What Scope?

    What scope is most durable, and best for me? Rifle is a .308 20" barrel, used for long range targets, police style sniper tournaments, and mountain hunting up to about 300 yards. I want something that is Durable (*reliability is most important to me), with FFP reticle, and preferably with...

    Rifle Scopes What scope for Recce?

    If price is the same which is the more durable, most clear optic? The SWFA SS HD 1-4x24 Tactical 30mm Riflescope, or the Leupold 1.5-5x20 Mark 4 MR/T 30mm Riflescope? I can get them new for about the same price (leupold a little cheaper)...

    Rifle Scopes Most Durable Optics.

    What's the most durable low power scope (fixed 3x/4x, or a variable 1,2, or 3, to 7,8,9, or even 10) for under $1000? What I like so far is the Ta11 acog, and various 1-4's. But which make and model do you think is the most robust and durable scope? Also, keeping it around 16 oz if not lighter...

    Rifle Scopes What's the better scope?

    Better as in durability, clear glass, etc. I'm mostly worried about durability because I only want to make this purchase once. Leupold mr/t 2.5-8 or Vortex 2.5-10x44 viper pst? If it makes a difference Leuppy is gonna be around $900 new. Vortex would be around $600, and I could always save...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns All-around 9mm Handgun

    Re: All-around 9mm Handgun I voted for the sig p225 but the sig p225, smith wesson m&p, and the HK P30 would all be great. High powers are also great but I don't think they're as durable as the others. Actually any of them are great but for me I'd go with those three, you should go try them...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Let's Have A Caliber War!

    Re: Let's Have A Caliber War! Yeah I also agree with that Azprc, I think you should have whatever you're good with and can afford to practice with; because anything is better than nothing. I would totally have a .45/10/.40 if I didn't have to pay for ammo

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Let's Have A Caliber War!

    Re: Let's Have A Caliber War! nope, never heard of the Thompson-LaGarde Tests- I'll find out right now! Thanks for that Whitecliffs. All right I just read it. It sounds like they were using FMJ and like I said, of course .45acp will win that game.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Let's Have A Caliber War!

    Re: Let's Have A Caliber War! hey taseal, want to expand on the 5.7? I've always wanted to try one and I'm a HUGE fan of the game splinter cell- but I just don't have the money for one, and it wouldn't be a practical fit in my humble arsenal.
