    Using bipod legs on barricades

    I usually use my rifle with the legs deployed. That way I'm able to preload the bipod while at the same time giving me something to hold onto to help steady the rifle. I also use Harris, I shot with a guy who had a Atlas, and I wasn't impressed. They look like rock solid bipod's, but they...

    AR 16 or 18" barrel

    I have a 18" 1/8 barrel and am able to take it to 900 yards with a little work. But at that point my scope is out of adjustment and I'm holding over. 69gr SMK 800 is a piece of cake. With a 16" barrel I'd imagine I'd be out of scope by 800 already due to the velocity loss

    I Need A New Safe

    I just picked up my safe this weekend. It is a Johnson Safe. They are made just North of Indianapollis. About a year ago I started doing research on safes. My goal was to keep the price under $2000, American made and get the best bang for my buck via fire rating, construction ect.... I read...

    Vendors who carry the Magpul iPhone case

    I am a hog farmer, and my otter box smells like shit. I'd rather leave it at the farm. I think I will look at different options. I went with the Otter Box Commuter series, but the plastic shell cracked and the rubber got stretches out. I now have a Speck case, and it's easy to slide the...

    Vendors who carry the Magpul iPhone case

    None of our local shops have them. Is the case hard plastic or is it rubber? Also, are you able to take the phone in and out of the case easily and time after time? At work I have a otter box, but I leave the case at work. So my phone goes in and out of cases in the morning and night.

    Deciding on a reloading equipment

    Ditto, I'd get a beam scale. I wouldn't trust a $30 digital scale with nothing to check it against. I've never used a hand press, but using one for 308 doesn't sound like much fun, I'd spring for a bench mind press.

    Lyman Gen 5 dispenser vs Chargemaster

    I ended up getting the Chargemaster last night. It was on sale at Cabelas and I had alot of rewards points and gift cards. I couldn't find many reviews on the new Lyman dispensers, and even though they might be good machines, I knew the Chargemaster was tried and true. Last night I tightened...
