    Ground hogs had a rough week

    That's one thing I miss about living back east, woodchuck hunting in the spring and summer. I've never eaten them, but we did hunt a farm in CT where the owner wanted any that were head shots so she could eat them.

    Are you "brand loyal"?

    I sort of am, but not always. Dies: RCBS, Redding, Dillon, Whidden, Forster and 1 set of Neil Jones Presses: RCBS, Redding, Dillon, and Ponsness Warren When it comes to the little stuff; gauges, expanders etc. I'm all over the map. Rifle Bullets: Target: Berger & Sierra Hunting: Nolser I...

    Do you guys mount your own scopes?

    Always do it myself using a plumb bob, a level that attaches to my barrel, and a torque driver. I then use either a SiteLite laser boresighter or a Leupold "Zero Point" to bore sight.

    “New” old Colt 9mm AR

    I just re-looked at your images. Honestly I think you have a feed issue.. mags or geometry IF you're getting that kind of setback with that variety of ammo. My AR6951 for instance hasn't had an issue with V-Crowns, GDs, and even 147grn FP coated bullets. What mags are you using?

    Grayboe Stocks, Opinions?

    I couldn't find it either, so I just went off the picture: Looks like a slightly darker desert camo. From what I can gather, they only make or made 2 models of stocks for Bergaras and it was the Ridgeback and the Premier Approach...

    “New” old Colt 9mm AR

    Why avoid coated bullets? I've shot thousands of them through my Colt? I normally just run whatever load I'm using in my IDPA gun through mine.. no issues.

    Grayboe Stocks, Opinions?

    Thanks guys! I've got a Phoenix 2 in "Rim Country Camo" on the way. I did see that they made the Ridgeback stock for Bergara, they actually have one (Rem SA) on clearance now for $503.10 (free shipping) in Bergara camo...

    Sizing Belted Magnums or (How I stopped worrying and embraced the false shoulder)

    Now that is a neat trick! I've been annealing 1st, why do you anneal after creating the false shoulder and sizing?? LCT??

    Sizing Belted Magnums or (How I stopped worrying and embraced the false shoulder)

    That's exactly what I'm doing.. and becoming a freaking expert at Rem 700 "rapid bolt stripping and reassembly" while I'm at it.

    Sizing Belted Magnums or (How I stopped worrying and embraced the false shoulder)

    and this is the crux of the issue right now..

    Sizing Belted Magnums or (How I stopped worrying and embraced the false shoulder)

    Yup, realize that. Just trying to minimize how much of the brass comes from the web while it's expanding. Rather than "hair jell" or another lube, I've left the resizing lube on, with similar results.

    Scheels Sporting Goods

    That's my major gripe right there. IF I want top of the line stuff; Crispi, Kenetrek, Mystery Ranch, (now even KUIU) you have to go to Scheels.

    Grayboe Stocks, Opinions?

    Anybody have one? Thoughts/experience? Looking at either a Phoenix 2 or Ridgeback to drop a .223 700 XCR Compact tactical in. I get a 20% discount so I might as well jump on one now.

    Sizing Belted Magnums or (How I stopped worrying and embraced the false shoulder)

    As per this thread: https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/belted-magnum-brass-prep-false-shoulder.924291/ I've been playing with creating a false shoulder when 1st time sizing belted magnum brass IOT minimize case stretching from the web area. This started with a new Bartlein barrel on...

    favorite target(s)

    New "favorite" target arrived yesterday and got it's 1st coat of paint. 50lbs of AR500 that's going up at 540 yds off the back deck: Just got back from Home Depot with the chains and bolts to hang it. All I need now is a 200m chicken.

    GA Precision Tour

    .223 REM believe it or not.. But he's already planning on a matching rifle in either .308 or 6.5.. "something".

    GA Precision Tour

    Trust me.. I did. We went from "getting ideas" to filling out an order form in a blink of an eye.

    GA Precision Tour

    So a friend of mine came out a couple weeks ago to shoot and had the opportunity to shoot my 700 in .223 at 200 & 300yds on steel. He'd never shot anything close to a precision rig previously and was impressed. On Friday I had a few of the guys I served with in 1st ID over prior to the 1st ID...

    Caldwell Lead Sled

    I've got one a friend gave me, and honestly I can't stand the thing. The one time I tried it I spent more time fiddling around to get the crosshairs back on target than it was worth. Personally I don't understand how anything that basically reduces recoil by adding weight will not: 1. Be...
