I got a new scope and for some reason cannot locate any brass in my stash to load up some sighters for the rifle it was installed on. So like any sane person, I went to the gun store and payed 60 US dollars on a 20 round box of ammunition just to get the damn thing zeroed. The factory stuff...

I've been looking for a SCAR 20 for a while, and this little dandy popped up in my search: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/903752048 Sometimes you see deals that fall through the cracks but this seemed too good to be true so I used the posted images for an image search and wouldn't ya know...

So I placed an order for some projectiles on Powder Valley, there was an order limits disclaimer when I checked out but nothing I bought had any order limits on the item page. I couldn't really find anything on their site other than a rather vague "certain items have daily limits ... any attempt...

I'd been looking for another scope lately because I never seem to have enough optics because I keep buying new guns because I have no impulse control. Anyway, I was thinking that somewhere around the 2-10 or 3-15 magnification range would be about ideal for a general purpose scope. I stopped in...

My better half got me some shop cabinets from Menards for Christmas last year and the orders are finally starting to be fulfilled. I've got two more stackable 2 door cabinets to install and 3 overhead waiting to be picked up. It's nice to have the space for everything for once. The downside is...

Is there an option to get site maintenance updates?

Yes that's right, I'm eyeballing an IWI Galil ACE. I was initially considering the 7.62x39 model but considering that these rifles are nearly 9 lbs naked and empty, I may aswell just go for the 7.62 NATO model. I have been looking for a semi-auto 308 for a while but I'm not sold on the AR10...

I've grown weary of the absurdities of corporate life managed top down by hand-wringing HR departments. Sick of being responsible but not having the ability to make the necessary changes to correct operational deficiencies... I want to opt out. I want to start manufacturing bullets. I'm waiting...

I bought a rifle today that surprised me twice. Firstly, I never had considered owning a Kimber and secondly, never a 6.5 Creedmoor. Welp, after handling the 84M Classic I couldn't leave the store without it. This thing is light, is factory pillared and bedded, and the trigger is very good...

So my diminutive life partner requires a shorter stock on her hunting rifle. She likes the traditional wood look but I'm having a hard time finding a wooden youth stock for a Ruger Hawkey MKII long action with the Winchester style safety. Can you fine folks give me some leads?

So I built my PRC and I have a bunch of spare parts left over and I'm thinking of building something new. The parts: Manners T4A LA 3.75" Mini-Chasis Defiance Tenacity Gen2 LA Magnum Jewell Trigger Basically all I need to do is pick a cartridge and buy a barrel and off she goes to the 'Smith...

After months of waiting on parts and accessories, it's finally here. Just in time for the panic to make all the ammo and reloading components vanish. Left to right: 308Win, 30-06, 7mm REM, 300 PRC I managed to snag a couple boxes of match ammo from the Runnings in Glendive so I can at least...

So my daughter is out of school due to the COVIDs. She's a big fan of YouTube videos and we needed to take a walk and talk about things we saw. Here's our video on fence etiquette. Shoulda made a comment about leaving gates as you find them but this is largely a joke video.

So I was at the reloading bench the other day, and saw that I had some RL-17 on the shelf. Can't remember why or when I bought it and it looked mostly full. I decided to look into what I could use it for and my Hornady manual showed that I could gain some significant velocity over my current...

I've not been reloading long, a bit over five years, but I've found that I have picked up some traits that I cannot shake. Do they make a difference? I cannot say but nonetheless I continue to do them. Here are a few of my most time consuming offenders: I read early on that rotating a cartridge...

I wandered into a 375 Ruger in a Savage 116 Alaskan. I figured I'd snag a box of factory stuff just to get it sighted in and whatnot...'cept nobody sells the ammo locally. They do, however, have brass and a few bullet options. I've got the right powders (eg H4350, Varget, H100V) but I'm not sure...

So I've got a wild hair up my backside about getting one of these Bergara HMRs, I've had the opportunity to put hands on both the HMR and the HMR Pro. Almost everything is the same, save the Pro has a trigger upgrade, Cerakote, and stainless components (vs CMV)... the tag price for the pro is...

Since I can never leave anything well enough alone, I got a wild hair up my ass and decided to try some of the Berger 200.20X in my 308, figured I'd share the data so far. CAUTION: The following post includes loading data beyond currently published maximums for this cartridge. USE AT YOUR OWN...

I'm looking to rebarrel my model 12 chambered in 300wsm. I'm planning on just having the 'smith put a proper shoulder and do away with the barrel nut system. Has anyone else done this? How fat does the tenon need to be to have enough of a shoulder?

Okay, I'll admit, I got suckered into building a Valkyrie but not like Creedmoor suckered, more like 308 suckered. Hold on, let me explain here... So I, like many AR shooters, got my hands on some of that sweet, sweet Mk262 made by Black Hills and it shot amazingly well with great velocities but...
