Have posted this question on several sites. I have a Weatherby Vanguard S-1 Back Country that I am wanting to install a 2-stage trigger into. I have been offered a (new/never fired) 2-stage trigger from a S-2 Howa. Does anyone on here have experience with this, and if so, do you know the take up...

At any given time I have 1k too 2k pieces of various brass primed and ready to powder/bullet. Been doing this a long time--haven't seen any problems yet. Go for it. G

Smith Model 19-2" on my hip, and an old High Standard 12ga 20" riot leaned beside this computer desk (always loaded and always one in the breech) G

"Substituting IMR4895 for H4895 in a reduced load will not be a problem. I do it all the time in .308 for 200 yard match loads." That being said--how does the substitution work across the board on standard, or hotter, loads??

Went with Forster--works great. Little pricey, but ya get what ya pay for. G

Thanks to all who responded. I can always count on good info when going to this forum. Now to the good part. PROBLEM SOLVED!. No, I'm not going to reveal what it was. No, I'm not even going to give a hint. Yes, I do admitt it was all operator error (actually mechanical ) I just can't see me...

"rc" Is it possible that the chamber specs on this particular rifle are "extreme". When attempting to de-cap, and FL the brass that has been shot thru the AR, its as if the brass is significately over size. Dies (both small base and standard) are RCBS, case lube is RCBS sizing lube, dies are...

:cuss:Just about to convert a Bushmaster LAR 10--.308, into a boat anchor. Ok, I know its not the weapon, its the lack of knowledge of the operator--I will concede the point. Here is my delima. I have successfully loaded for several different .308 bolt guns--got the process, and results, down...

I guess its all in what you want the most.IMHO the Smith is worth about 3 SKS's. The thought of a SKS being worth $450/$500.00 just stymies me. For the most part, those of us that have shot them for any length of time,,probably paid less than $100.00 for them. I bought 2 at the Tulsa Gun Show...

I'll just keep my 3 PolyTechs, and you can have the Saigas. G

"If the bolt isn't going back then he has some sort of problem with his gas system. A leak in the gas tube. The gas block isn't lined up properly or something wrong with the gas key." This is basically what he described, so I have a feeling he's probably messed something up while attempting...

First of all "I,m not an AR person." I own one--I shoot it--I clean it--I put it away till next time. There's a kid down the road that has a Grizzly LAR,16" flat top. He calls me last night, says his AR is screwed up. WON'T EJECT! Do it manually and everything is fine. So to you AR guys---whats...

I've got Browning's 15" bench model. Love the bag --hate the weight of it. It for sure holds your weapon securely. G

Yea--I bought a new toy yesterday. Bushmaster LR .308 16" HBAR with 10"twist. Can't wait to wring this one out. G
