    Sako TRG Lapua Vs Custom. What would you do?

    Pragmatic point of view is... If you have a Sako, and you shoot it for a while, it will sell fast and for a good price, almost a guarantee. You build something completely custom, that might now sell as fast, or for as much as you think it's worth. Sako will probably be around for a while to...

    308 or 338????

    Re: 308 or 338???? For the record I do shoot rifles now, but it's a rare 30-06, occasional 7mm rem mag on a light hunting rig, and my AR-10. I decided to build an affordable lower recoil 6.5 or anything these guys mentioned earlier in a bolt gun as I already have .308 in my gas gun.

    308 or 338????

    Re: 308 or 338???? Buy the .338 if you WANT it. You will always want it. It is, however, not dissimilar from putting a guy who is used to driving a minivan in a z-1 vette. You will not get the potential from it. It will make you a WORSE driver, because it is too much too soon. If you are...

    Why are shooters saying AR style 308s hard to shot

    Re: Why are shooters saying AR style 308s hard to shot Let me preface what I am going to say with the fact I am not a great shooter by any means. Though I love my AR-10, it is much much much much harder for me to shoot well. I have also been frustrated by all the moving parts. I have...

    Rifle Scopes Spec'n a USO

    Re: Spec'n a USO Blue illumination is the most likely to cause your eye to become less sensitive. Red will have the least impact. I chose green on my USO for the simple fact I like green and figures it is the color with our highest sensitivity to different shades. So even if I look at green...

    Rifle Scopes USO 3.-8-22 or 8-32 NXS for Varmints on 6mm ?

    Re: USO 3.-8-22 or 8-32 NXS for Varmints on 6mm ? I think the 3.8-22 is one of the best power/featured scopes out there. I purchased one myself because of that. Didn't know they stopped making them.

    How much water should we drink?

    Re: How much water should we drink? Ross being worried about water intake is a 2 sided sword. You want to make sure you drink enough to be hydrated. The flip side is you can drink enough that it will eventually leech nutrients and electrolytes. Rule of thumb is try to get in a gallon a...

    How much water should we drink?

    Re: How much water should we drink? <span style="color: #CC0000">"The best way to judge the amount of water that you should drink is by the color of your urine. When its above 80 degrees and your exercising or working hard its hard to drink enough to urinate. But the color of the urine stream...

    How much water should we drink?

    Re: How much water should we drink? <span style="color: #FF0000">"H2O =\ Carbs =\ Protein =\ Fat. H2O = WATER. Plain and simple. Protons can't become electrons, and water can't transform into fat. Become acclimated to water and you'll shun carbo beverages, etc. H2O does the body...

    Steroids Anyone ??

    Re: Steroids Anyone ?? At 18 I got my T levels taken. I was in the <100-200 range over a couple tests until I was 21ish. I was in great shape, but I stayed fat and never got muscular despite my heavy lifts and overall size. I have been Rxed testosterone a few times. Androgel was the worst...

    Rifle Scopes FFP or Not??

    Re: FFP or Not?? Sniper is onto the right factors. Saying the reticle is ideal is not fact but opinion. What is fact is you can do more with a FFP set up. FFP will also hold a larger value to the higher end market. If you only shoot paper and don't intend to do hold overs etc or you...

    Rifle Scopes Glass to 1500+

    Re: Glass to 1500+ Is this just for BR or will it be used more than gently? I would pick either the USO 3.8-22 ERGO first choice. TPAL second. Get the big tube for lots of elevation. 35mm and the EREK. From there I would pick S and B as the next choice or nightforce. I cannot say...
