The USAMU and the CRC are holding a high power rifle clinic on Feb 9-10, 2008. This clinic is geared for beginner to intermediate shooters. Topics to be covered are shooting positions, sight alignment, trigger control, sling and equipment usage. Recommended ammo to bring is as follows: 60...

Today was the first day of the Georgia Rifleman's Cup match, run by the Chattahoochee Rifle Club at Easley Range on Ft. Benning. If anyone hasn't shot a match done by CRC, you need to do so. Everything went smooth as silk (except my shooting :scrutiny:) and always does. James, Gus, Hopp and the...

A friend of mine has a couple of daughters, they're grown up now, but when they were little he'd take them shooting out on his land. Well, that was years ago, they've since started families and gone to college and made it out to the real world. Earlier this week, he called me up asking if I...

Buying a case trimmer is next on my list. I'd really like a high zoot powered machine like a Giraud or Gracey, but I'd have to brown bag my lunch for a long time to front one of those. I've been looking at the Redding trimmer, the hand crank one with the micrometer adjustment. Any...

I seem to remember a while ago where Tuner performed a test, beating and prying and tweaking on the hammer of a 1911 trying to make it drop or hit the primer in any case. I've searched the forums but I haven't been able to find it; if anyone has it bookmarked by any chance, or can relate the...

From Saxby Chambliss I know it's being beat to death, but get out there and write your congress critters, folks, if you haven't already.

I don't suppose anyone would have any info about these things, would you? A friend of mine has one we've been tinkering with - it's proven to be a very accurate rifle, with one slight problem, in that it has a tendency to fire more than one round at a time :eek: Any place where we could...

I'm aiming (ha) for an Expert card and/or my first leg points shooting across the course. Gonna try building a Tube gun sooner or later for long range. And I think I may give the M1A a whirl across the course, or maybe just at 3x600 matches.

So I got tagged by the 1911 bug again today, mostly 'cause I've been following a buddy of mine around to different gun stores, since he's pistol shopping. You know, moral support. Seriously. Honest. :uhoh: Anywho, today I stumbled on a stainless Colt Gunsite Pistol, handled it, pointed...

I've shot a few local 300 yard reduced course matches and finally got picked on enough to where I plan on going to my first full course high power match at Ft. Benning on the 18th. In between here and there, I plan on working on my offhand (I'm averaging like 130-140ish on a good day :o ), but...

I finally convinced a guy I used to work with to come out to our local 300 yard reduced course match. He got me started shooting, so what the hell, I figure I'll try to return the favor. We only had enough shooters for one relay, the weather was conspiring against us, I shot offhand and sat...

Gotta feed my highpower addicti..hobby, and buying factory loaded ammo ain't gonna do it. I shot up the last my of Black Hills reman, so I hit my local dealer and paid about $75 for three boxes of Federal Match, and that's not good. Living 10 minutes away from the range has inspired me to...

I shot another 300 yard reduced match yesterday. Offhand and 300 slow prone wasn't nothing to write home about, but I did alright on the rapids. I'm having a hell of a time establishing NPA, but since that was my third match, I'm a member of the club now and can go to practice whenever I want...

Whatever your game is, IDPA, IPSC, 3 gun, smallbore, highpower, trap or skeet, cowboy action, how'd you get started? What kinda gear did you use starting out? Where do you stand now as opposed to when you first started out? We all started out as newbies at one time or another, I figured other...

My local dealer has 15 round G19 mags for $26/ea, which I suppose I don't have too big a problem with, but I think I can do a little better online. CDNN has them for $15/ea, I think. Where are you getting your normal cap Glock mags from?

My dealer finally got a handful of these in. I had a rifle sighted model with the conventional stock on layaway for the past few months and finally brought it home today. After assembly and playing with it a bit, I've formed a few opinions and questions about it. 1. It is a solidly built...

For some reason or another, the .260 has me fascinated. Mild recoil, wide selection of high BC bullets, and it's something different. But the problem is, outside of a 40X from Remington's Custom Shop, I haven't seen anyone that offers a .260 in something other than a sporter weight barrelled...

What do you prefer? From what I've gathered and my experience with factory ammo, I know the Sierras work. I've read lots of good about the Nosler J4s. And my local dealer has the 75 gr Hornadys, both the BTHP and A-MAX, in stock. The experimental side of me will eventually buy and try all...

Well, my E-Bay'ed 550 is on a brown truck somewhere between the PRK and here. Been browsing around on Sinclair's website, looking at all the different dies and whatnot, so, barring absolute necessaries, like another book or three, measuring equipment, and components, what do y'all suggest as...

I'm going to another 300 yard reduced match tomorrow. The first time around, my zeroes were totally screwed up. What I thought was good enough to whack a 12x12" steel plate off a bench at 200 yards was about 3 minutes too high in the offhand, I reckon. Work and other things hasn't left me...
