advice

Alright help me out here. I've done quite a bit of research and I am getting ready to "pull the trigger" on a new tactical rifle. I've emailed with Surgeon, GAP and Tactical Rifles. I've seen everyone post about Surgeon and GAP - pretty much a push. I haven't seen anyone mention the company...

I am planning on building a long range .270 from the action on, starting with a Remington 700. What I am thinking is around a 1000 yard gun, or rather what i would like, either way. Any suggestions on barrel twist and bullet grain???

Help me out...I have just recently purchased a yet-to-be-shipped Desert Tactical SRS in .300WM. I would like add a nice piece of glass to it without spending a fortune. I have been strongly considering a IOR in 6-24x50mm; however I would prefer a FFP scope, and have heard horror stories about...

New User to the site: I would like some advice on picking up my first personal side arm. I have only ever shot military service pistols in the Navy, so that is the sort of thing I am looking to try and purchase. If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it. Thanks GreatTikiMan

I am putting together a 7 mm WSM project. What is the best way to get a sub MOA 7 mm WSM? Since Remington doesn't make 7mm WSM, is it better to get a 300 WSM action and then build from there? or Should I go with another manufacturer? I prefer to stay with the Remmy since there are more...

I was certain that info would be easily found, but I couldn't find any topics on it. I have some money set aside for a single stage press, or turret. I've reloaded since I was 12 years old, but unfortunately, it was all shotgun shells. I understand the basics, and have a few reloading books that...

I was putting a new grip (tangodown battlegrip) on my Colt 6920 when after I removed the grip screw, a small spring fell out along with a small gold colored pin, then my safety went kind of limp. How does this stuff go back together? thanks

I have an older gentleman at our range wanting to get into reloading his 7mm and 300WM. I only reload .308 and .223 so my knowledge with these is limited. With the powder primer issue right now is there a powder that he can use for both loads?. I looked over the reload depot and saw rl 22 pop...

Currently have a 2008 R700 TWS (VX III 3.5-10x40, Harris bipod, Pelican case, sling etc.) only has 20 rds down tube. What is a fair price to ask? Not sure what kind of demand is out there for this setup. Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Im looking into buying my first rifle for long range shooting. I plan on taking either a course at Rifles only or Blackwater, any advice on a good .308 for shooting up to 1000 yards? Under 1000$ would be appreciated lol

With a full tactical build underway, I am turning my attention to my next build and wanted advice from the smartest group of people on the planet. I think I want a lightweight (very lightweight) rifle for hunting that is not like humping a 14 lb brick all day in 100+ degree heat. I enjoy...

Hello everyone.... I read countless posts concerning different gun finishes and unless I missed it, I couldnt find an answer to my question... Anyways my question is: Has anyone had any experience using Aluma-hyde from Brownells? I've painted several guns before using krylon and they held up...

I just got in some "sample" bullets from JLK "Swampworks" and I've never loaded a VLD before. Right now they're going in a 30-06 My current pet load is topped with a 178 Amax and I seat them to contact the rifling upon bolt closure. I got some of the 175 VLD and 180 VLD with Long Boat Tail...

I have a Rugar p89 9mm, I don't like the fat grip. My dad has a Gov Colt .45 that I love. Any advice on getting gun with grip like the Colt but a little less money. I have been looking at the Taurus, are they built well?

holds under 1 MOA.. What I mean is no SMK's, A-Max's etc.. Only for hunting, but will still hold MOA preferably 1/2-3/4 MOA..
