    Thompson Center hawken rusty barrel potential problems

    Dry patch feels like speed bumps were installed and always come out with a light copperry rings but not black crud. I use a .010 patch already I don't think they make smaller. And I sadly already use a range rod and clean between targets which is four or five shots. Thanks for the replies

    Thompson Center hawken rusty barrel potential problems

    I bought a used T/C hawken off the net. After having the hardest issue of getting the thing to fire (and one gunsmith cleaning fee) finally got it to the range about 10 times and shot about 200 rounds through it. Luckily I'm part of a muzzleloader club so I've learned a lot through the folks...

    Anyone have a dillon 650 DVD that i can buy?

    Buying a used dillon 650, with no DVD and thought maybe could send me theirs for a bit while I learn how to set it up? Benos has it $20 but I'm sure there's one collecting dust somewhere. Discrete paypal can be used.

    Washington State Shoot and Hoot

    Hunting < 500 yards, why would a 6.5mm (264) be better than 308?

    Well out here in the tree farms near the mountains 500 yard shots are very possible. My elk that I lasered was 430 yards away. I was really close to dark time but still had time to walk uphill to lower that distance. But, if I had practice at shooting that range I might have considered doing...

    Hunting < 500 yards, why would a 6.5mm (264) be better than 308?

    I agree that 120 gr will do a lot better than a 165 gr 308 but with me wanting one bullet to do everything (elk included) that basically forces me to go with the 140's. Bullet drop for the 140gr at 500 yards is -47.5 inches compared to the 165 308 @ -50. That to me doesn't seem like much of a...

    Hunting < 500 yards, why would a 6.5mm (264) be better than 308?

    I've been contemplating building a savage 110 30-06 into a 6.5 something: either 260 rem, 6.5 creedmor, 6.5x55 swede for hunting in Washington state. Game would include mule/white deer and elk. I already own a savage 308, which I'm happy with. I've anchored 2/2 shots on a whitetail and a cow...

    Who has contacted their Reps?

    I wrote mine and she responded with her cut and paste email response how she wants to get dangerous assault weapons off the street. I hate living in Seattle :( Democrats are so pro civil rights until we get to the 2nd amendment it seems

    This is funny if you really think about it

    Legislation would take guns away. And I find that not too funny.

    Lee loader

    If you're using just the lee scoops for powder measure you should be ok if you follow their instructions exactly. In fact, I would buy the kit first, go to your car, read the directions for the scoop and look for powder you can use with that scoop, then go back and buy that powder. You could...

    Lee loader

    Why buy new brass when old brass is cheaper? Of course, you probably should tumble it to clean it so there's that upfront cost too. Anyway, my shortlist: 1. Kinetic bullet puller (looks like a big hammer) 2. Vernier calipers 3. Tumbling equipment, won't need it till you have used brass.

    AR Build - too many choices

    I'm encountering the same with my proposed build, it is really hard right now to find barrels or complete assemblies for 20" or 18" but man are there 16" and smaller available!

    At what point are "cheap" AK's no longer cheap to you?

    I agree, for $500 you can get a lot of different rifles. Depending on what you want an AK might fit the need but AR's aren't much over $500. Of course, SKS's are rising in price too though.

    Starting a savage bolt custom build, where do i start?

    Well I'm not going to competition but I can't afford accuracy international with nightforce but I can afford a $20 wrench and some headspace gauges. Besides I'm not going to win any competition anyway even if I did have some higher end gun, I'm just looking for something fun to shoot at my...

    Starting a savage bolt custom build, where do i start?

    So I'm parting with my trusty honda shadow and funding a bench gun and I've chosen savage. Now I've bought and sold many guns and I hate to just buy this and then sell it because I don't like it and it doesn't fit my needs. So what savage do I start my build? Requirements: My local...

    some people

    Personal loss makes any argument more difficult. While not knowing anything about this lady it's hard to even fathom where she gets here ideals. People "like that" are not a worthwhile cause to debate the pro's and cons of firearms, there will always be anti-(fill in the blanks), the people...
