    Reloading Blanks in .308

    Tried to search the topic but only pull up pages on barrel blanks. Anyway, my father passed away last month and as he was a Korean War veteran, he was given military honors. I would like to clean and reload these so that I can use the same ones for my eventual ceremony. While I have reloaded for...

    Rifle Scopes Setup for Model 99

    I know this might be a long shot but I am looking for anyone that might have a model 99 using a SPUHR sp4003b mount with a us optics 5-25x58. As the 99 comes with a 27 MOA rail and the SPUHR for this model of scope comes in one height (38mm), I calculate that it should fit on principle of height...

    Police Gain Access to Home Security Cameras

    Not sure how you all feel about this one and while I would be the first to turn over any recorded criminal activity, I don't agree with giving them access to my system full time. As retired LE I can see the potential use but I also see a grey area where the system may be used outside of...

    Barrett Strikes Again

    As usual, Barrett decides to no longer support older rifle models that are out there so I am left looking for a comparable upper in 5.56 for my M468. I looked at them a few months ago and thought “I should get one as they have them in stock” but when I started searching yesterday after the wife...

    Changing an Unusual Watch Band

    I was not sure where to put this so here goes nothing. I have a few of these watches (Citizen BJ8040-01E) and I need to put a new band on one of them. Problem is, the band appears to be connected “inside” the watch as the band is flush with the body and no pins are visible. Does anyone out there...

    .416 Build

    I searched the forum and did not find much but I am wondering if anyone else out there has done a custom build around a .416 Barrett. While the round is OK out of a Barrett platform, I am thinking of ordering a BAT Machine 50 BMG action and using a 32-36" barrel to see if this round can be...

    Savage Warning Label

    Honestly, what a way to screw up the look of a rifle action than by printing this crap on it. At least leave it black, now I have to paint the thing or my OCD will kick in every time I look at it

    Savage 12 LRP

    Hello All, I am in the market for my next moderately priced project and I came across a Savage 12 LRP in .243 with a 26” heavy barrel. I like my .308’s but I am looking for a good rifle for 500-1000 yards for stationary targets in a smaller caliber. About the closet thing I have to compare it...

    Do you always select the best rifle for a given caliber?

    Not sure if the title captures the issue; however, do many of you always go to the best rifle you own when you go to the range? In other words, if you have three .308's ( low end, mid range, and high end) do you always take the high end rifle. I have read many posts that tell new shooters to...

    Maggie’s New outdoor range in Anza CA

    Have any of the other SoCal folks been out to the sewet range in Anza? I see that it's only open on weekends but their web page does not give specifics on ranges other than cost. I called the number but it just rings with no answer. Any info would be appreciated.
