    Ouch....lb of AA 4350

    That was a bit of a stinger. $62 for a lb of powder. My old 70gr NBT .243 chuck load was great, so lucked into some new bullets last week. Decided to replicate and needed AA 4350. Had an 8 lb jug purchased on sale before Y2K. IIRC was 82 bucks or thereabouts. Used 2/3 way back and being old...

    Scratched a scope again

    Even w dressed rings, the once minty gloss Leupold Varix ii c got light ring marks on the bottom where front ring was. Have said it before, say it again, I absolutely detest Ruger rings. Proly shoulda used tape in the bottoms, but the ring gap on the sides was pretty big anyway. Too bad...

    Savage MK II TR

    Anybody run one? My eyes suck anymore so I won't be competitive enough in NRL22.....even local matches. Not worth dropping big money to play in Open class. Figured maybe the MK and a Superchicken 12X would be OK. I got the scope for a general use across mult rigs......for checking loads. It'll...

    HK woes

    I have a P30L and am hitting left. Gun has the small panels and backstrap. Thought maybe the funky trigger. Swapped to medium panels, gun feels way different. LGS has a like new VP9. But since used I could try before purchase. It appears to have the smaller panels on it, but also felt like the...

    Ruger #1 V hole spacing

    Yup, need to know first to last hole spacing. See if this custom bbl'd #3 has same. If so can order an EGW #1V base. Its wearing the blocky 2 pc Redfield, so I could go Weaver 2 pc or even factory. Neither of those gets the rear ring over the receiver any (the Redfield does). However, the R...

    Looking for a euro .308

    Man I wish that Mauser M18 was a short action. What else is out there? Dont like the looks of the new Steyr Prohunter 2. Stainless mountain old style would be cool.

    Hawken scope base

    Years ago TC offered a scope base for their rail mount pistol scopes. Tried to find the old part# on a few sites, no luck. Think a 2.5X TC pistol scope on my Hawken might be doable.....if I can find a base.

    CZ455 .22 lr

    Got the standard a yr or so back, beech w hog back stock, sights. Kinda cool. My 1022 SP was a beater and cooler, but it wouldn't shoot, and Rimfire Sports was always out of the blued GM 20" sporter. My CZ shot better w no effort, so gone was the 10/22. Swapped my stock for an American plastic...

    Leupold Mark AR 4-12X AO

    Saw some in a shop. Discontinued. Anybody running one? Wonder if the "AR" designation due to cosmetic or if they really increased the eye relief over the old standard 4-12X AO stuff. Thanks.

    Tikka stainless .308

    Thinking about one. Why? I like synth stocks for durability (hate dinging up wood). And kinda dig the Ruger M77 MkII all weather I got. But am wondering about consolidation. Dump my Forester and my 77MKII and just get a Tikka. Have not even handled one. The MkII feels OK, no wow factor...
