    PSE TAC 15 - $1,000 LIKE NEW

    I have a PSE Tac-15 that I have only taken to the range 1 time and only put 18 bolts downrange. It has been in my stable in its bag ever since. Very cool piece of kit that you put on top of an AR-15 lower! It uses you existing trigger group on your AR lower! The result is that you can change...

    Feedback for 7mm-08 Load Development

    I remember now why we started so low. Granted, this is all very new to me so forgive me if I don't explain this quite right, but I was told that the Norma brass has thicker walls, and so pressures would be higher. Does that sound right???

    Feedback for 7mm-08 Load Development

    Thanks! I was wondering if you might have any other favorites for precision hand loads? I am not seeing a huge availability of Hodgdon/IMR powders out there.

    Good to know...now to find some in stock somewhere.

    Feedback for 7mm-08 Load Development

    I saw that...but I noticed that as I got closer to 45gr, the bullet was edging out little by little. So maybe the Scenar-L bullets won't allow anything close to 48gr.

    Feedback for 7mm-08 Load Development

    AHA! Yes, this is the kind of information that makes my head spin about reloading. It's a little intimidating at first, but I am in too deep now!!!

    Feedback for 7mm-08 Load Development

    I recently put together a great looking rifle...it is a Tikka T3 action in a Eliseo Tube Gun chassis, with a Proof Research bull barrel. I was super excited to get it to the range, but was very disappointing when it was a little inconsistent. I went through the barrel break in procedures from...

    Eliseo Tube Gun Build

    Chose 7mm-08 for the BC. I have 7mm-08 brass so I am not resizing. I think the donut is only a problem when necking up...it's not something I've ever dealt with.

    Eliseo Tube Gun Build

    So I am now finding that it is hard to find a smith who will finish off the Proof barrel. Anyone know of someone in or near the Bay Area, CA who would take this on? Chamber Thread Crown

    Eliseo Tube Gun Build

    Pretty excited about my Eliseo Tube Chassis that is in production right now. So excited, that I decided to write about it...since all i can do right now is wait for my build number to come up!!! I have a Tikka T3 in 7mm-08 Rem. I have always been the kind of guy to be satisfied with stock...

    Go in Light and Come out Heavy - Which Pack?

    Late to the party...but a plus one for the Kuiu Icon. It has a very lightweight carbon frame and can be used with different sized packs that easily attach to the frame in seconds.

    Zeroing the turrets on a Leupold VX-III

    Haha! The snipers on my team are stealthy...in everything they do. I don't have much interaction with them! Not to mention I'm out with a knee injury right now and just got the rifle set up. Still about four weeks away from getting off the DL.

    Zeroing the turrets on a Leupold VX-III

    It has the low hunting turrets. There are cheesy gold rings at the bases with a notch...is that supposed to be spun around to the zero ? How is that supposed to stay still??? Would it be worth trying sending it in for custom turrets? Does anyone make aftermarket caps? Thanks in advance.

    Zeroing the turrets on a Leupold VX-III

    So I am very new to owning rifles and have never had to zero a scope before. I have a Leupold VX-III like the title says, and I just got it zeroed to 100 yds, but I can't seem to figure out how to zero the turrets??? If that makes sense. I bought it from a friend and it did not come with a...
