    1909 98 Mauser Modelo Argentino Sporter -- whats it worth?

    This is a cool 98 mauser sporter in 25-06. The stock has been professionally done with action glass bedded and barrel free floated. Timney trigger. Very nice bluing, polishing and jeweling on the action which is as smooth as glass. It shoots as good as it looks. So, what value would you put on...

    6.5 creedmoor antelope hunt sight in

    Hey guys.. I have an old Ruger M77 that I just had re-barreled with a Shilen 6.5mm chambered in 6.5 creed. I've only had the gun out once for barrel break-in and to get it on paper and only at 100 yards and it looks like it could be a great shooter. I'm heading out to chase some speed goats...

    Building an accurate rifle, need advice on reloading DIES

    I'm rebarreling my Ruger M77 in 6.5 creedmoor with a 24" Shilen 1:8 sporter barrel. This rifle will be used for bench shooting mostly, but will likely kill some game as well. I reload several calibers and have mostly RCBS/Lee dies. A buddy of mine can get a deal on Redding stuff through...

    Ruger M77 Rebarrel in 6.5 Creedmoor have ?'s...

    I have a nice Ruger M77 in 7x57. The gun doesnt shoot as well as I'd like it to and I've decided to take this in a different direction (rebarrel in 6.5 creedmoor). I contacted the Colorado school of trades, a trade school that does gunsmithing for cheap here in Denver. I've been pleased with...

    Ruger m77 7x57 improve accuracy

    Hey guys I have a Ruger m77 7x57 with the tang safety made in 1977. It was given to me as a gift from my grandfather who was a big gun geek. I have several of his rifles that are incredibly accurate and unfortunately this isn't one of them. We have not been able to get this m77 to shoot very...

    Anyone have a Marlin 917VS?? I need opinions!

    My brother in law has one of these rifles that is glass bedded with a trigger job and this gun shoots REALLY GOOD (shoots better than my CZ455 which has been lapped/crowned/bedded). I recently found one used in great condition for $200 with a scope. What are thoughts on this gun? Do they all...

    Your favorite .223 load for S&W M&P 15

    hey guys, I just got an AR and looking for some load data, picked up dies and the Lee turret is ready to roll! I have H335, CCI small rifle primers, and a variety of 50'ish grain bullets. My 22-250 loves the Berger 52 grain hollow point target bullets, I'll surely be trying these. My uncle...

    Opinions and info about S&W M&P AR-15

    I think its time to get my first AR. I primarily shoot at paper or out on the family ranch. I want this gun for fun and I want to get one while I can, the current political climate has me a bit weary. I'd like to keep the gun budget under ~$700, as I'll have to pony up for...

    I want a .17 HMR, which one is best?

    My brother in law has a Marlin 17VS (stainless varmint rifle) made in early 2000's with a laminate stock. It is a fun gun and shoots great. I'd like to get the same gun or something similar (or better). What do you guys prefer with the 17? Any better options than the 17VS these days? I like...

    Want an accurate rifle! M1a or???

    Hey guys... I like to target shoot with rifles and I have some pretty cool 98 mauser sporters that shoot VERY well. I'm going to part with a S&W registered magnum revolver I own that should free up some nice $$$... I'm trying to figure out what to spend it on. I've always lusted after the...

    98 mauser Rifle stock forend and grip cap

    I have a nice walnut stock on a 98 mauser action in 243. I want to dress up the stock by adding a rosewood grip cap and forend while i have the stock stripped down. Questions: Where can i buy the rosewood? What are some options for an accent "layer" between the stock and forend (not sure...

    98 Mauser | Which scope mount???

    I recently acquired a .243 sporter with a GEW 98 large ring mauser action. The unit came with a cheapy scope and basic weaver mounts. I want to add the dove-tailed adjustable rear mount as I can get the scope far enough adjusted to the left and as such it wont even hit paper! This action...

    98 Mauser sporter | Which trigger??

    I recently acquired a 243 sporter with a GEW 98 Mauser. :D This unit has the original trigger (I think) and the trigger comes down in the middle of the trigger guard and is not easy to reach/pull - I HATE IT. All my other 98 sporters have the trigger further back toward the rear of the...

    Rechamber 7x57 to 280 ackley???

    I have a Ruger M77 in 7x57 which my grandfather gave me. This rifle just doesnt shoot as accurately as some of my other rifles, despite some considerable efforts with custom ammo. From what I have gathered, the accuracy problems could be due to the fact that this gun was chambered for 175...

    Which ar-10??

    I would like to buy an AR-10 for target shooting and the occasional hog hunt in TX. I'm thinking of something with a 20-22" barrel for long range accuracy. That is pretty much my only requirement. Budget is $1500 for now.... Have been considering armalite or DPMS. I also heard that S&W...
