    Whats the worse rifle or gun you ever bought ? I hsve several tied

    Howa 1500 in 6mm Creedmoor… my first and only Howa. Put it in a MDT Oryx stock. Throat was cut way too deep… 0.20”… had barrel set back and rechambered. Still can’t get the gun to group… so bad I’ve never been able to work a load up for it.

    Daughter wants a new (smaller and lighter) rifle....

    I haven’t read all the replies, but I had the same issue and went with a Savage Lady Hunter in 243 and put a muzzle break on it. It’s light and a dream to shoot... 1/2 MOA accuracy.

    Windage Compensation

    I shot IHMSA for years and Ft.Stockton Texas hosted the International Championship on several occasions. Located in west Texas (high desert), not only did the wind blow hard, but the temp typically reached 100+ everyday... making for good mirage. I understand the theories of reading mirage...

    NEW POLL - Will your next rifle scope be first or second focal plane?

    Check out Ebay right now... there's a seller letting go of Vortex PST 4-16x50 FFP scopes for $699 and free shipping. I think Vortex has discontinued these models because of the Gen II models, but this is a great scope at an unbeatable price.
