    MIL or MOA target making software

    Not sure how that helps, as a spreadsheet software isn't (as far as I know) going to have MIL/MRAD measurements for 100yards.

    MIL or MOA target making software

    Hey, y'all. I'm getting back into reloading for hunting and I've been looking at some free PDF targets Storm Tactical has and I noticed that some (at least the ones I use) aren't straight or perfectly aligned. Some parts are off by a few pixels, others are off so bad that you can see it with...

    TacticalRifles.net

    The point I was trying to make, was that a good company back up their product/service with a warranty. You may have violated the rifle companies warranty, but the smiths' shop should have their own warranty. The kind that says "We pride ourselves in our professional craftsmanship. Should...

    That's bullshit. Any company worth their salt will back up their product 100%. That disclaimer is a sign of weakness and shenanigans. "light weight trigger pull" is VERY subjective. 3.5lbs could be light for someone. Others, really heavy. Being advised to NOT use hand-loads is just stupid and...

    Can I sell tickets to that show??? We can use the money to shut these douchebags down. With how crappy their work is, I'm waiting (in fear of course) of someone getting or hurt or killed because of their extremely poor craftsmanship. That's probably what it will take. Similar to center divides...

    Fieldcraft making a ghillie suit

    Buy 2 duffel bags from a surplus store and cut out sections for your knees, elbows, chest, with some neoprene (not sure where to get that) underneath for some padding. Use shoe goo for glue. Done.

    Hunting & Fishing Long shots on game - what are people resting off?

    ^^^^This. I haven't hunted yet, but I am former infantry and the same logic applies. Sometimes you just have to get comfortable by any means necessary, or even comfortable while being uncomfortable, because you may not always have the "perfect setup". Closer usually means a flatter shot, but...

    M-24R in an AICS 2.0

    I want an M-24, but I don't have $3600 laying around for the rifle, let alone another $2000+ for the glass to go with it. But some day................some day..........

    Rifle Scopes best way to zero a scope

    He never mentioned doing it "cold bore", as I described in my way of getting a zero. He describes a constant shooting type of zero.

    Hunting & Fishing MIL Range This Buck.......

    Range is approximately 750m. THE MATH : Typical shoulder height is from 21in - 47in (according to Wikipedia). I chose 35in for a healthy buck average. With 24 additional inches from the shoulder to the top, that's 60in in total average height. Height in mils : 2. 60in/12in per foot = 5tf...

    Rifle Scopes best way to zero a scope

    If you want to be zeroed for "cold bore", do exactly what damoncali does, but wait a few minutes between each shot for the barrel to cool. If it's warm to the touch, let it reach ambient temperature. It takes longer, but this way you won't have to worry about having a zero for a hot barrel and...

    This is great stuff. Now I want to try it, but alas, I don't have a garage or a yard to work in. Some day.

    Lost in the wide range of powders

    I ended up getting Reloader 15. It came well recommended and it was just about the only one I could get, without paying more than I wanted. I'm starting off small and just working on the "muscle memory" of reloading. I was only able to get 150gr bullets, but this way I can work my way up the...

    Lost in the wide range of powders

    I did and all I found were random powders for calibers I'm not using, or for a bullet weight I don't have.

    Lost in the wide range of powders

    Hey y'all. I just got into reloading and I'm excited that I finally found brass. Unprimed, new, NEVER fired, 308cal brass. Amazon.com: Hornady Unprimed 308 Winchester Match Cartridge Case: Sports & Outdoors It's $0.80 a piece, but at least it's something. Anyways, I'm looking at my...

    Hornady Brass or Winchester Brass???

    As much as I would love to use such high quality brass, I'm just starting out and I still need to get the "muscle memory" of reloading and I don;t want to waste great brass on bad loads.

    Hornady Brass or Winchester Brass???

    Hey y'all. I'm just getting into reloading and Winchester brass was recommended to me, but I can't find any unfired/unprimed .308cal brass made by Winchester. I can find some Hornady Match brass, but that's it. I'm looking for precision, but not quite yet. I still need to practice reloading and...

    Gunsmithing Should I have a gunsmith install my bolt action stock???

    I've decided to just have a shop do it. Not necessarily because I can't, but because I don't have the tools or the space to do it properly. Besides, if something goes wrong, I have a way of getting it fixed for free. The last thing I need, which I highly doubt will happen, is for my new rifle...
