finally

I know you guys seen ah ton of these before but thought I would post it now that I got all the accessories and scope on it. All factory accesories and topped off with a 5.5-22x56 nxs nightforce with the np-r2 recticle. The np-r1 was just ah tad to busy for me when shooting paper but I have to...

Got my motorcycle sold and called the next day to order a rifle built. Should be done right around the time I return from Afghanistan. So it worked out perfect. Im gonna pay off the rifle a save for a U.S. Optics SN3 and everything shoulkd be done in time for me to start putting rounds down as...

Well, most of you probably dont remember me being on here beause I post so little but around 2 years ago I bought a Remington 5R MilSpec .308 on here. Since that time it has sat patiently waiting on me to buy a scope so I can shoot it. Since I have bought it I have fired only one round thru a...

For years I have been kicking around the idea of buying a Garand, but kept putting it off. A relative passed away recently who had an extensive gun collection(quite a story in itself...more on that on a later date) I was given an oppourtunity to pick two of the guns for next to nothing. Out of...

Been piecing this thing together since october. Still not done, but now there's something to look at lol. Many thanks to meercat for helping me out. Great guy. Not too excited about the regular trigger, but that will have to wait. I still need a BCG, and a mount of some sort for glass. The...

I started with a Nikon Buckmaster, sold it to a buddy and bought a Burris Fullfield 2 and last night finally got the Zeiss Conquest 6.5x20x50. I have to say that the Nikon and Burris worked really well but I wanted a scope I could keep for a lifetime. Comparing this scope to all the Leupolds and...

I got my .223 Ackly build back from AJ Brown recently and I've been burning up 1000 205M primers that MBandy13 was nice enough to share with me and I've been searching high and low for more. I set up my table at the gun show today and a friend stopped by to tell me that one of the vendors had...

I have a groundhog hole in the field next to my shop. I didn't think it was active because my buddy already shot one there last year with my AR. Anyway, the trucker told me there was one out, so I took my .308 and managed to miss it 3 times. Later ranged it at 169 yards. Took the .308 to...

Well, after a time investment of just over 9 months, I've got my rifle put together. This is my first attempt at assembling an accurate rifle, but by gleaning some of knowledge on this site I think I just might have done well. It started with a Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .308 that...

Finally 75 degrees with a 5mph wind! I went out today and shot (For the first time) 950yds!! What a absolute blast. The Patriot Fat Boy brake on it allows you to see where your bullet hits thru the scope. I dialed in 6.8 mills with no windage. The wind was slightly blowing right to left. The...

Well other than the Dr. Optic on top of the Acog it's done!!! It's got Krinkoff Tip Free Floated barrel Jewel Two Stage Triggr (3 1/2 lbs. Pull) Winter Trigger Gaurd Visable Lazer SOG Broom stick Acog Wilson Combat Paddel Saddel on the buttstock She has treated me pretty well so far!! What...

Today I finally get my Savage 10 .308 back from JB Weaponry. That's not to say that I waited a long time, i'm just an impatient almost 30 year old kid who was without his rifle for <span style="font-weight: bold">only</span> 3 weeks. Yes, it was the quick turn-around that John @ JB Weaponry...

I went to my local gander mountain today to check out the Win. Wildcat and Model 60 to see how they fit on my tall 6' 2" frame. The Win. Wildcat was way too tiny, the stock made me feel I was hunching down to fit to the rifle, which isn't proper for shooting. Unfortunately they didn't have a...

I've been wanting a semi-auto 7.62x54R for quite some time. I finally found one at a reasonable price and bought it. What do ya think? http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=123653822

Well we finally found our outfitter and booked our whitetail hunt in Saskatchewan at a place called Caribou Trail Outfitters 2 hours north of Saskatoon. Trip was $4500.00 but with the economy in the tank they did it for $3500 with license and tax included we will be hunting the last season Nov...

I finally got my rifle. I can't wait to go to the range bright and early tomorrow morning. I'll post 100yrd and 200yrd results. I have two rounds to try out: 150 grain and a 180 grain. I went with Federal rounds to get it zeroed. Might get some match grade later. Pics of the rifle and scope...
