    Suppressors .30 cal, titanium, and QD............ Go!

    Now that I finally have all of my suppressors, all of my friends want to get orders in as well. They are asking for my recommendations, but all of my research is two years old now. These guys will all want one rifle can to do it all, from shooting on their 300 win bolt guns to their 243's...

    Suppressors How much time between error letter and stamp?

    Try as I might, I have not been able to forget about all of my pending suppressors. So, I've been checking the transfer status every 60 days or so. When I checked earlier this week, I was informed my form 4's are in "problem status." Today, I got ahold of Becky Wetzel at ATF (she sent the...

    Suppressors Just an FYI, the e-form system is down.

    I'm pending on a bunch of suppressors, and decided yesterday to register some AR15 Lowers as SBRs and a Remington 870 as an SBS. Everything I've read about the e-form deal made it sound prettly slick. When the .gov turned back on yesterday, I registered at the site and filled out 4 form 1s...

    Magnum Research Mountain Eagle w/ Sako Action and Krieger Barrel??

    Hello all, I went out on a limb yesterday and dropped $1425 on a 300 win mag Mountain Eagle. The component list made it look like the perfect gun for me, but I can't find a review to save my life. HS stock, Timney Trigger, Krieger cut rifled Barrel, Sako action, all the goodies. Let me...

    Anyone running a 20" gas operated 260?

    I'm running a 20 inch Ma-Ten in 260, and wondering about loads and velocities others are getting. I'm running 39.5 Varget and a 120 amax in black hills match brass, but only getting around 2800 fps. 40 grains = pressure signs. Is anyone out there loading the 120 amax and getting more...

    $6,000 and a favor, give me some recommendations on what to get.

    Here's the situation: I've got about 6k to spend, and a client who is an FFL dealer. Client and I have agreed that he will square up his legal fees by selling me one weapon of my choosing at his cost. I don't have to blow the whole 6k, but I'm thinking the more expensive the weapon = better...

    20" MaTen 260 loads??

    I'm just finishing my MaTen, with a 20" lilja, and am wondering (1) if anyone has a similar set up, and (2) what loads have you been having luck with. This rifle will see some hunting, deer and coyotes, and I was thinking perhaps the hornady sst. I like that it has a cannelure since this is a...

    Nebraska? South Dakota?

    I did a little searching and came up with little to nothing, so I thought I would make a new topic. Are there any precision rifle competions in Nebraska or South Dakota? Both states have good country for shooting, but very few long range shooters.

    Hello all, I've finally decided to pull the trigger on some suppressors after much research and deliberation. I'll be ordering them within the next few weeks. I would like to know what you think of each of my choices for the roles described. 1. TBAC 30BA - This will be pretty much...

    Leica 1600 Rangefinder Review

    Well, I just got my new Leica 1600 in the mail today, and it happens to be a perfect day for rangefinding. The crops around here aren't in or growing yet, so I can see for miles and miles. Also, it's overcast today, which I believe is perfect conditions for lasing. The first thing I noticed...

    Suppressors Has anyone actually shot the phantom Ti on a 300?

    I've been in contact with YHM, have my NFA trust ready to go, and am trying to find a dealer in my state that sells these. The only thing this can will ever see is my 300 win mag and my SPR 5.56, and I'm wondering what to expect on the 300. Have any of you tried this, is it hearing safe, what...

    M2 AP 300 win mag loads?

    I've been toying with the idea of loading some M2 AP bullets in my 300, just for fun. Please share your experiences, load data, anything else you want, except the legality of doing this. Every thread I've found on this issue gets side tracked with legal mumbo jumbo. I've got a good handle...

    Brass hard to chamber?

    Hello all, I'm shooting 300 win mag, I full length size in a redding die, then use the Larry Willis die to resize the area above the belt, after that I trim the brass to length then tumble in stainless media (which is awesome, btw). Just for fun, I ran a few pieces of brass through my 700, no...

    Which weather reader to buy?

    Hello all, I need to get something to read wind, density altitude, and temperature. A compass heading feature would also be nice. I'm pretty hard on gear, and willing to spend up to $400, although less would certainly be nice. Does anyone have a recommendation?

    Gseven rangefinder?

    My Leica just isn't gettting the job done now that I'm shooting beyond 1000. When shooting targets, I'm getting by OK by using GPS. I'm in the market for a new rangefinder. I've thought about Vectronix, but I don't like the price. I've been reading reviews on the G7 and it sounds like just...
