    LTR and GAT

    Looks great - I may have to try that with my LTR which is currently in a B&C stock and heavier than I'd like. Great camo job, BTW.

    rem 700 internal mag scrating brass?

    My 10 rd. and 5 rd. AI .308 mags did the same thing when new. I just buffed the edges with fine grit emery paper until smooth as a baby's butt. No more case scratches.

    What to do and eat in tuscon?

    There is also Pinnacle Peak http://www.pinnaclepeaksteakhouse.com/ which I always enjoyed, particularly for the skillet BBQ thing they do. There is also El Corral, owned by the same people but a totally different vibe. I've had good steaks at both places.

    Powder for .308 Match Loads

    I was planning to start with 44.0 gr. N550 in an attempt to get a similar pressure to 40.2 g RL15 but will give your 43.6 a try first.

    168 & 175 Sierra Match Kings instock @ Powder Valley

    I was planning to switch from using 168s and start using 175s, but now does not appear to be a good time to try that... They had some 168s so I got a couple of boxes. Good price, and in stock. Hard to beat that. Now if I can find some RL15 locally...

    168 & 175 Sierra Match Kings instock @ Powder Valley

    Just ordered 500 175s. Doesn't look like they'll have any trouble selling whatever they have (and can get). Update: I just received an email from someone at Powder Valley stating: "I’m sorry but you have placed an order on a website that is currently under construction. We did not receive your...

    My future career - Iranian Rat Sniper

    My .177 RWS Diana springer was perfect for dispatching some field mice that started working their way into our walls when we lived in CT. I figured out where they were going in and out and as luck would have it, it was right near a window in the downstairs study. So whenever I heard that...

    Powder for .308 Match Loads

    I have a pound of N550 I've been meaning to try and may do so shortly. The Lyman book indicates that it is the powder they found most accurate behind both the 168 and 175 SMKs. But yes, it is expensive - almost twice that of RE15. I almost *hope* it's not any better :)

    Powder for .308 Match Loads

    I've had good results with RE15 in my 1:12 twist 20" LTR. 40.2 grains is my current pet load with Federal brass and 168 HPBT pills. Have some <1" 200 yd 5-rd groups to show for it. Just FYI This load, although just 0.2 grains above the "min" suggested load in the Lyman data book, is still...

    AICS 308 magazines - 5 rounds vs 10 rounds

    Re: AICS 308 magazines - 5 rounds vs 10 rounds Did anyone else need to polish the inner lip of these magazines to keep them from fairly seriously scratching the brass? I was a little disappointed when I got mine and discovered this. Polishing them with fine emery paper only took a few...
