    Why the 69 gr SMK when we have the 53gr VMax?

    I was referring to more 75 amax, also with the high bc plastic tip. It may only be 3 or so inches, but in competition that is significant. And i'm sure it's much better to use the 75 or even 80 amax as they have a better bc than the smk hollowpoints. I don't have any valid research to prove...

    Why the 69 gr SMK when we have the 53gr VMax?

    The wind drift will kill you... The BC of the 53 is terrible in comparison and there will be a huge difference between the 75's and 53's. Yes it goes faster and in turn drops less... but the wind will make up for the drop.

    Trouble with picking my next rifle, PLease help!!

    I know all about benchrest, I used to be interested in it. However, to me it doesnt even count as shooting. Its more like making the most consistent bullet you can make. Some of the br shooters spend hours making like 25 rounds... Yes, they will go into the same hole, but I want to SHOOT for...

    Trouble with picking my next rifle, PLease help!!

    Right now i use my savage 10fp for my main (and only) .308. It shoots about .6" groups at one inch (85% of the time the group size starts with .6xx) , .75" max, sometimes as good as the .4's. (rarely, like 1 in 15 groups) However, I really want to have tight tight grouping out to 300 yards (the...

    GA Precision rifle or similar??? Help needed

    Hi... well... my nearly year long (unwanted, of course) break from shooting is over. Last time I shot any gun was in november of 2006 because of lack of time to do anything. Anyways, I'm planning on buying a high precision rifle pretty soon, and I was thinking of GA precision... any other...

    Please help me with this body satisfaction survey

    I have to do a research paper for my social psychology class. I would very much appreciate if you could fill it out. Please be as honest as possible and fill out the questions to the best of your ability. The more finished surveys, the better. Once the research is finished, I'll post the...

    I sense a bad future for IL residents....

    This stupid VT kid ruined everything. Not only did he kill all those people needlessly, but now that ban will be passed. I thought it had a chance of not passing before, but this tragedy was the boost it needed to get passed. Even though he wasn't using "assault rifles" they will somehow...

    Something tells me, for reasons unknown to me, that SB16 will be passed.... Just a feeling I have. Discuss.

    Looking to buy a new gun... Which one?

    Boredelmo, Do you have any pictures of yours and some more info about it perhaps? I was hoping for a 9mm but if the price is right I might settle for the .380. New used, etc?

    Looking to buy a new gun... Which one?

    I want to buy either an AK 47 or a Mac-11. I know there are several brands of each. I am buying more for having it than for accuracy and reliability. Does anyone know anything about these guns, such as which brand is best. For the AK I was thinking Romanian, because they are under...

    Midway vs. Grafs

    WHen I ordered powder from Midway, the box it came in was from Powder Valley, Inc. I checked their site, which is listed above, and their prices are way lower than midway's for powder and I think primers as well. Also, they dont have the 9.99 special handling charge. I think it was something...

    WHat would you say to this person?

    For all of your entertainment, I have posted one of his "target pictures"... To me, those "holes" dont even look like holes. They look like someone took a marker and made dots on a piece of cardboard.

    WHat would you say to this person?

    I have a person on another non-gun forum that claims that FOUR of his completely stock rifles shoot .25" consistently with factory non match ammo. He claims 10 shot groups can still stay under .25". Rem. Model 788 - 22/250 Savage 112BVSS - 25/06 Ruger M77MKIIVT - .223 Ruger #1 Special...

    What I learned on my first hunting trip...

    First, I learned that you can have a .000003 MOA rifle that shoots 0.1" groups at 500 yards, but when a deer is running full speed through a field, it doesn't mean much if you have never shot at a moving target before. Secondly, don't use full zoom on a 24x scope. Its kindof hard to find...

    I'm so good at shooting!! My groups are amazing.

    I dont know if it was the case trimmer, but the garbage Lyman case trimmer left the case mouths extremely unsquare, leading to what I hypothesize is an uneven release of the bullet. I may or may not be right, but my groups speak for themselves. Whatever I did, it worked. My savage shoots good...
