    Remington 700 Trouble

    Anyone here ever run a Remington 700 in subzero weather? Yesterday I tried. No joy. About 1/3rd of the time it wouldn't cock when I closed the bolt. Trigger pull weight was all over the place, and one time it fired as I closed the bolt.:what: My theory is the factory lubricant is too...

    Utah- Wasatch Front area, Sat Dec. 5th range day.

    I reserved the Provo City range for the day for my family. The whole thing, dawn to dusk. It's in my name, but anyone from here is welcome to come up, OC is, of course, just fine. You will need to supply your own targets, eyes, ears, etc. Bring whoever you want whenever you want, pack a...

    Single six ejector rod housing screw trouble.

    It's an old model in about 95% condition, so I don't want to do anything to it that will cause me grief. The blasted thing keeps coming loose. Every 50 rounds or so, out with the screwdriver. I was thinking just a small drop of blue loctite. Just makes me nuts. My 357 41 and 44...

    How big are the deer in your area?

    Out here, an adult mulie buck can push 300 pounds. And usually you're only allowed 1 deer if you draw out. What about the deer where you live? How big, and how many can you take?

    Kids and hunting

    As a hunter ed instructor I find this article http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31952727/ns/us_news-life/?GT1=43001 a little biased (no surprise, considering the source) but it's a touchy subject for sure. Here in my state we have adult supervision requirements, but even with those we've had a couple...

    Accuracy and on game performance of 30 cal. Speer Hot Cors?

    Mostly I use Core-lockts, but I ran into a deal I couldn't pass up on some of the old .308 165 grain hot-cors. 1. What are your experiences with them as far as terminal performance on game? 2. Accuracy off the bench- Can they do MOA or better in a good rifle? I saw a few deer taken...

    Wanting a different caliber for a 1903A3 action.

    Guys I picked up a sporterized 1903A3 a while back for a song. When I tore it apart to check it over, I found the stock was broken between the action screws clear back into the wrist. It's already been rebarreled, as the bluing doesn't match, and the barrel isn't marked at all. I was told...

    Good deal on a S&W 4006?

    How much is one in excellent shape worth? I've had one offered to me with 6 mags, a box of ammo, a serpa holster and a double mag carrier for 350. Is that a good deal?

    Ruger nut with a question about a S&W revolver

    How much would a 97-98% thunder ranch 44 special be worth in your area? Not that I really care, but it has the fancy box and all the papers with it. I finally found a smith that is tugging at me.:scrutiny:(Don't tell my rugers, they'll mutiny.) From handling and dryfiring it I love...

    Range report- Saiga 12

    Had the opportunity to take out my brand new IZ-109 Saiga 12 the other day. This is the model with rifle sights and a 19" barrel, for those that didn't know. It worked just like I expected. Any combination of 2 3/4" or 3" shells, bird, buck, or slug I put in the magazine cycled fine. It...

    Great day at the range!!

    Finally got some trigger time for me instead of running the range for hunter education students. It went wonderfully. Weather was perfect. No one else around. The unissued yugo m59/66 that I decosmo'd and finished the stock on for my wife? She was bouncing 12 guage hulls at 100 yards...

    WHAT do I have here? Help me ID it please.

    A guy at work gave me this thing to see if I could help him get some magazines for it. It's sort of a chinese knock-off of a 1911. It's blued, has the safety mounted on the left side of the frame(forward safe, back fire). 2 piece grips with a lanyard ring cut-out on the left panel for the...

    Question on makarov magazines:

    Are 380 ACP and 9X18 mak magazines interchangable? I'm assuming it's a similar situation as 357 sig and 40 s&w mags. My wife's owned her 380 mak for a while and we want to get some spare magazines for it.

    Why I haven't posted much lately.

    To those here that know me and consider me a friend- It seems that some dip-dip I work with, while at work, looked at something he wasn't supposed to on the ol' internet. He lost a 250,000/yr job. The FBI is involved. AND our management REALLY threw the screws down tight on what websites...

    Who makes the best rifle brass, in your opinion?

    Guys, a request: I have my own very strong opinions about the best pistol brass based on a lot of personal experience. Up till now I haven't shot enough rifle rounds to really form an opinion on rifle brass. I plan on changing that, and would like to learn from others with more...

    How in **** do you put a 22/45 back together?

    I can't ssem to figure it out. I'm following the book, but no dice. I can't get it right. The bolt doesn't close under spring pressure, and the hammer has no spring pressure. I can feel the sear release, but no hammer fall. The bolt will cycle by hand, but not under spring pressure...

    Do you KNOW what guns you own?

    I got thinking the other day(always dangerous). I can't rattle off in my head exactly what guns I have. I have to go get in the safe and get out the inventory sheet. This is not a brag, just something I realized. How about you? Do you know off the top of your head? Or do you have to go...
