    300 WBY Left Hand Model 700

    Left hand Remington Model 700 with Shilen barrel with brake, Timney trigger, DNZ 1"scope base, sling. Low round count, I’m sure less than 100 and never more than three rounds in succession. I always try to keep the barrel cool. Nothing really wrong about the rifle, I just don’t use it enough...

    Best 69 Grain Bullet

    My AR Varmint/Target rifles shoot the 69 grain HPBT match bullets. I have been going through a lot lately and try to be a little thrifty about it. I never want to use junk like factory seconds, I mostly use the top manufacturers that make them. Nosler RDF, Sierra Matchking and Barnes Match...

    Aggressive Dog

    Before we judge, remember it’s important to get as much on video as you can. You can always get another dog.

    Accidente

    Make sure to back off a little when you are shooting at exploding targets. This video is fun to watch at different playback speeds. I first played it at .5 speed to see the item that struck him more clearly. After that, I played it at 2.0 speed and it was funny...

    Sellier and Bellot primers

    I never used these primers before. I have a possibility of buying a ton of these in small rifle match, though they’re called something else, something Czech sounding. Some are large rifle size. Have any of you used them and noticed any issues with consistency and accuracy? I’m used to CCI...

    New Foot Pursuit Policy

    https://www.npr.org/2022/06/22/1106654201/chicago-police-will-no-longer-be-allowed-to-chase-people-on-foot This is good news. About time we consider the safety of criminals. It makes you wonder what the cut off on pursuits will be in 15 years? This could be tempting for a police officer to...

    Good Crimper

    I don’t usually crimp. I checked my bullet reactions in the Varminter ARs and it looks like they move a little during the cycling so I put a real light crimp and will see if that’s enough. I normally hate crimping. I bought a new crimping die from Lyman and it’s good. It kind of makes...

    Swagger òr ream

    Hello, What method are you using to defeat the military crimps for brass? I used to swage them. I started out with the RCBS primer pocket swagger die and bought the Frankford Arsenal swagger tool. Recently, I started reaming and I couldn’t be happier. It’s so fast and seems just as uniform...

    Silent Captured Springs

    Hello, I’m considering the JP Enterprises Silent Captured Spring buffer assembly for the AR Varminter rifles I’m working on. Do any of you use them? I hear lots of positives about them.

    Fixer Upper

    I got this Marlin model 60 probably 25 years ago from my former Boss. I remember he was going to throw it out if I didn’t want it. At the time, it hardly cycled and I never shot it. It stayed with me this whole time and came close to being chit canned a few times by me during its life...

    My set up for better pistol shooting.

    Do you think this will help me? I’m not the best pistol shooter out there. I am looking for holsters for this set up if anyone knows where I can look.

    Transplanting Cliffrose

    I’m about to dig up a few plants about 3’ high and transplant them at my house. If they survive the year, I plan on a whole yard of Cliffrose and other native plants like Piñon, Yucca and other sage and Cacti. Have any of you done this before and had success? Most of the Cliffrose around me...

    EC Tuner Brake

    Hello, Does anyone have one of these Brakes? If so, can you please comment on their performance? I’m interested, they seem like they’re better than just having a Brake. A little tunability makes sense. I have the B.O.S.S on a Browning A Bolt but never played with its adjustments.

    Best Bolt Carrier Group

    For AR-15s, what is the best make for a bolt carrier group? I’m a lefty, so please recommend one that makes left hand versions. I’m more of a bolt action guy, but an idea hit me. I have two Stag AR rifles in left hand configuration. Both are run of the mill, one is 20” barrel and the other...

    Bullets at good price.

    Midway USA has 22 cal 55 grain Berger match bullets for $26 per 100 right now. I know only a few people will care since most everyone out there shoots the heavy bullets. That’s a good price for Berger. I bot a few boxes.

    M700 extractor

    Hello, I am having a lot of trouble with my factory extractor for my model 700. It twists inside the bolt and leaves the casing in the chamber. Fixing it only works for a couple dozen rounds. I’m about to upgrade the rifle with a new barrel and all the accuracy trimmings. Is it wise to go...

    Sig Hammerli 22lr Magazines

    I’m looking for magazines for the discontinued Sig Hammerli 22lr. It’s the best 22 pistol out there. I can shoot the dirtiest, wax and filth coated bullets and it still functions and is pretty accurate too. Problem is I only have one mag. I would like a few more if anyone can help me find them.

    Wipe out

    I bought the wipe out foam barrel cleaner. I’m cleaning a Remington 722 257 Roberts that hasn’t had a good cleaning in I don’t know how long. We don’t clean rifle barrels that much to be honest and when we do, it’s a quick kind of half assed job. I am at 4 passes so far and let one dose sit...

    RCBS MatchMaster

    I recently had my Chargemaster quit on me. I called RCBS and they’re trying to figure out what could be wrong with it. It shows an error code that they’ve never seen. They said they will get back with me this week. I have hundreds of rounds between three cartridges to load up and I just...

    30-06 AI

    I’m thinking about getting the Savage Impulse in 30-06. I would then get it reamed to Ackley Improved. I already have plenty of sporting rifles and don’t really need another one, but you know how it goes. The reason I am thinking about the 30-06 AI is because it should shoot a 168 grain...

    Tot Finder

    Did any of you use these stickers for the windows of your Toddler? One of my friends had one on his bedroom window in the early 80s and has long since moved out of the house. His family sold the house year ago and it’s still there. I think the new owners should remove it to keep the fire dept...

    Water Treatment Grit Snail

    I did a roofing job at a water treatment plant almost 20 years ago. One piece of equipment I saw was a Grit Snail. It’s job was to take the fine solids and separate them from the process. I noticed it caught a lot of corn. I assume it’s undigested from poo. Also earrings and small chains...

    St George, UT

    I heard about the passing of Wilford Brimley and just found out he lived in St George. I guess there are a few famous people there. Did any of you that live there ever meet him? How about the other famous people like Asia Carrera or others?

    First Striker Fire

    I ordered the Walther Q5 Match Steel Frame 9mm. I played with one that a co worker brought to work and it felt good. I think I’ll like the trigger, it felt better than any semi auto pistol I own. I always thought I would never buy a striker fire because they seem unsafe to me. At least less...

    +P Ammo

    I know it’s a higher pressure and shouldn’t be used every time you shoot. Is there a pistol that can take the constant high pressure and survive for a lifetime of about 40,000 rounds? I reload and have loaded up some hot rounds just like everyone, but I haven’t really studied what it does long...

    Pistol Lanyard

    Every semi auto pistol I have has a lanyard loop. I’ve never seen people use them. Is it something for combat or do people really use them?

    Lori Vallow

    This lady knows what happened to her kids. It’s in the news that her husband knows as well and they have a dirty past with deaths. Is there a way to make them talk so the investigation can end? I was thinking about me and how easy it would be for me to fold under questioning. I’m a bad liar...

    Clay Shooting

    I’m starting to do more and more. A few years ago, I would go only once a year. Now it seems like I go once a month. How often do you guys go and what do you use? I use a Browning BPS 20 gauge, but I just bought a Mossberg 590 A1. It’s a tactical, but still fun. I’m not too serious about...
