stick

Hi all, just recently got a new Rem 700 sps tactical. The bolt seems to stick when loading a round, I have noticed that the bolt seems to be pretty "dry' looking, as in not lubed at all? wondering if anyone has had this problem, and what the fix was, OR if anyone has any idea on how to...

Just mounted my new scope to my new Boom Stick I’m taking some time off this coming week and hit the range to see what this puppy can do. I can’t wait to get out there and send some lead down range. The following is what I have done and what is coming in for the rifle. Base Platform: SAKO TRG...

Well picked up a new bow back in the spring ( Pearson TX4) and just got it out the other night to try some broadheads. . Tried the classic Muzzy 100gr's that I have been using as well as the "Rage" 3 blade that my buddy's all hyped about. . So tried 2 shots 30yards, rain was just starting. (Had...

Im new to reloading and was wondering what is the difference between the powders (ball,flake,stick)? I am going to be mostly loading .223 ammo for target and picked up some Hodgdon Benchmark and IMR4195(thats all the local gun store had in stock) and noticed the IMR is stick. Is there any...

I am curious why most .308win match grade factory ammo is ball powder? I know Remington,Black Hills and HSM use ball powders in there match ammo. What other companies use ball powder for there match ammo ? Reason I ask is why if they use ball do most people use stick powders? I know they have...

After wanting to try one for several years I finally picked up a Arthur Brown 97D falling block rifle in 6.5 BRM. I still have to work up my load but am looking forward to using it this season. I have a ton of 130gr accubonds and 120gr barnes on hand so they will get the first call. At 7.5# as...

What the best? I just switched over to stick. I never used it before just wanting to know what best.

I have a Remington 5-R in .308. It has about 120 rounds through it. Using new Federal GMM ammo. When I go to pull the bolt back to eject a spent case, the bolt sticks a bit. You need to yank on it to get it out of battery. I don't know, but it feels like the resistance is about what I...

<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #FF0000">UPDATE: I took the rifle to Don Cracy in Independence, Louisiana. We separated the stock from the action and retorqed everything down. Then we went to his private range and used a couple of his hand loads. The first three of his loads...

A 700 made by HD Rifles,its just so sweet I topped her up with S&B PM2 ,they work nice together.

I've done the mods I found on the web, but my new Powder dispenser on my 650 sucks. W/ N133 it throws a deviation of up to .7 Gr. What should I do?

I am new to long range shooting. The other day I picked up a FN Special Police Rifle unfired with 4 mags and a trigger job already performed for a $1k. It seemed like a deal that I couldn't pass up so I didn't. Anyhow I need to get a scope for it now. The spontanious rifle purchase left my...

in the next few months I'll be getting a new stick for shooting steel and paper at a max of 450 yds for now. will go farther if I find a different place to shoot, or if turtle extends his range. the question is whether to go .260 rem or 6.5 creedmoor??? Hornady is making it easier to reload the...
