    Rock River .204

    recently picked up a Rock River upper in .204-very fun for the range and if I ever get the chance, would be excellent for prairie dogs. So far have fired hornady 32 and 40 v max-it prefers the 32 grain, having had as good as 5/8" 5 shot group with it from bench at 100 yards. Had hoped it would...

    Barrel cool/wow

    Used the "barrel cool" chamber inserted fan today at the range....absolutely fantastic! Benefits include: -had dramatic impact on cooling barrel on both 700 30-06 and model 70 coyote light .243....was close to 80 and it took a few minutes to cool the barrel down after 3 shot groups. -small so it...

    X Mark trigger job

    Just wanted to share what is possible with a Remington X Mark pro trigger-just got a new Remington Model 7 predator (.243), which was too heavy out of the box. I'm picky about my rifle triggers-a gritty, long or heavy pull is just not fun to me to shoot (I have several American Gold, Timney's...

    Smith & Wesson M&P 10

    For anyone considering an AR10 type rifle, I highly suggest checking into the M&P 10-absolutely fantastic rifle! I had been interested in a semi-auto .308, either an M1A or AR10, but it was going to take too many $ to get accuracy wanted, or it was just too fricking heavy (why would I choose...

    Easy Time Saving Tool for AR's

    Happy New Year Everyone :) Just tried the CAT M4 cleaning tool yesterday and had to share how easy this simple little tool is to use and SAVE YOU TIME! I tend to shoot my AR less than my bolts largely because I find cleaning the bolt carrier group just too much trouble and it takes too...

    Action preferences

    After adding several semi-autos to the herd, for the most part, while I agree semi's are best for limited applications, I'm finding my preference migrating back towards bolt actions.... Advantages of: simplicity lighter weight for anything other than .223 (which is too light IMO for many uses...

    Nickels & Dimes

    Sorry all, but just have to brag/share, whatever you may want to call it, but this was exciting for me! (best groups I've ever shot :) ) Shot my Model 70, 270 sporter today using cheap Winchester 270 150 grn power point ammo - 3 shot group covered by a nickel and 5 shot group covered by a...

    Model 70's

    Just took the latest addition of my "kids" to the range yesterday! Got a new Winchester Model 70 "Coyote Light" in .243-WOW, very cool toy! Chose it because the Model 70 Sporter (.270) has been my favorite bolt action and I wanted something different from my other rifles-this 1 defintitely...

    Sharing Scopes

    While I know this isn't totally unique, this idea may be really helpful to some... Just picked up a new FN FNAR, which has a picatinny top rail-have a Daniel Defense M4 V7, which of course also has top rail-going to add a picatinny rail to my Remington 750 semi-auto 30-06. By using the...

    Fn fnar

    I wanted to share my report on the my new FN FNAR-AWESOME rifle! After passing on the AR10's (don't like the style as much as anything and they tend to be really heavy), I thought I'd get an M1a-no doubt, cool rifle with heritage to match (too expensive and from all I've read, would have to...

    Thoughts on TC Icon vs X bolt

    Getting ready to choose new .243 between these 2....(replacing an A Bolt, primarily because I don't care for the wood stock it has..yes, I AM picky :D) Have X Bolt Medallion in .308 and love it-have heard some really great things too though on the Icons. Handled the Icon at Bass Pro-was...

    "Real" reason so many trash Model 700?

    I read posts often enough stating that Remington's quality has gone bad, blah blah blah that I often wonder why it's stated as often as it is. I have 4 Remingtons that have been anything but poor quality-an '86 1100, '11 870, '11 700 CDL 30-06 and '12 750 30-06; the 700 shoots 3/4" using...
