    Will $300 make a difference?

    I picked up a Stevens 270 at Academy for $180. I'll hang on to it, and sometime when I have 30 minutes to spare, I'll stick a stainless 22-250 AI barrel I've been saving on it. Later, I may take an hour and put a trigger in it, and put a decent stock on it in the same hour. Then go outshoot a...

    Circa 1996 Rem 700 BBL 223.. What Twist rate?

    I bet it's a 1-12. Probably still was until 2005; they've always been behind.

    Savage 110e .308 for $250?

    Great deal. Now sell the scope, barrel and stock. Then you can buy a B&C stock, a good scope, and a Shilen pre-fit barrel in an interesting caliber and amaze people. Probably shoots good though like it is.

    Savage Model 10 BAS and 10 BAS/T

    Stocks were made to be modular, and us AR parts. Looks to me like they need to be drilled out to lose some weight.

    You have the Colorado Multi-gun in New Mexico? That just seems wrong......

    Long range shooting question

    Gun isn't bolted to the table, geez...and this is just how that particular game if played. It's no more pointless than something like........slow-pitch softball. If you don't like it, don't compete in it.

    Sniper Rifle or Deer Rifle?

    My 11 year old daughter has killed a jillion deer with a 223. It's called bullet selection, and shot placement. And if you want to shoot a 223 at 500, your best bet is Savage, since they sell a 223 with a 1-7 twist (of course, most of their rifles come in shooter twists). Mine does very well at 500.

    long range shooting school

    A long shot is a long shot. You might check with the people who put the show on, they can tell you who the vendors were.

    Remington 5R 300wm Need advise!!!

    I picked none of the above. A 300 WM will be brutal for F-Class. A lot more efficient calibers out there, with less recoil. And a 24" will work for F-Class, just another disadvantage.

    20 MOA base on savage questions

    The base you need will also depend on your caliber. Big difference in lobbing a 308, or shooting a 6.5.

    20 MOA base on savage questions

    If you have enough internal adjustment in your scope, you can zero at 100 with a 20 MOA base. And if you have a quality scope, it's no big deal cranking it down. I had an older Bushnell 4200, and the older models only have something like 26 MOA of adjustment, and that wasn't enough to zero at...

    Colt Pre Ban AR ?

    Now that there is "no-ban", I'm always amazed when people still look at ARs in terms of pre-ban or not. Right now, they're all pre-ban, for the only ban that counts (the one coming).

    Marlin XL7 vs Stevens?

    Any aftermarket part that fits a Savage will fit the Stevens. I used a Stevens as the base for my 223 Ackley and 338-06. Great guns. The Stevens is just a re-badged Savage without the Accutrigger.

    would you trade an Ar15 varminter for a Garand?

    CMP is the way to go. Although you should have kept the AR, and just bought the Garand.

    Scope Mounts on a budget

    Are you going to be throwing your rifle out of a helicopter before you fast rope out? If not, there is not reason to spend $300 for rings unless you just hang out with a really tacticool crowd. How many people have you heard of who have broken rings anyway? Get some Burris Signature Zee rings...
