In addition to the muscle training...be sure to ALWAYS discuss with your DOCTOR before using any implement or training device - especially if you have cardiac or respiratory issues - but these can help develop your diaphragm muscles naturally and can allow for training your system/chemistry to...

Would Russia have Invaded and stayed had Trump been in office???

Handloads - likely Bergers in the 140 - 175 range at around 4000 to 6000 foot elevations around 15 to 45 degrees F. Max yardage will be limited by dad based on his range performance and then minus "XX-XXX" yards based on conditions in the field

As many weekends as he wants to go ;-) Overall in the summer I'd say twice a month on the long range...weather has NOT been cooperative lately. We do have access to our local indoor range for 25-100 yards but family illness has inhibited that from happening. Right now we're going to be...

Yep, we're not concerned with looks...only the potential benefit of the stiffness at reduced weight. Correct - fluting can only detract from accuracy due to stress added to the steel unless it gets relieved...and that's questionable. So it's a gamble - some fluting works out without any impact...

Stock is a grade 4'ish Walnut (currently in about 96-97% action fitting - waiting on barrel channel) with a dark marble-cake grain and feather-crotch that we have been working on - end result will be pillar bedded with full action support with Devcon. Twist will be 1:8

Principal reason for the Can would be to protect hearing. You are correct, 7-08 is a joke for recoil

90% likely

Hi Folks, I appreciate your time and expertise here. I am building a 7-08 for my son on a Rem 700 SA. We hunt in Western US in mostly mountainous terrain so weight is a factor (he's 14 and 140 lbs...not super athletic). I'll be going with McGowen barrels (had great success with them) and my...

If China is going to take Taiwan - it will be between May and June of this year based on how the weather/winds blow strong except this period...Xi already told the PRC "Prepare for great Conflict" and has been "sanction proofing" the CN economy by hording food (1.5 year supply grains)...

Hi CJ, What you are seeing are the different denisities of the wood. The Fiddleback or Flame is created where the tree was stressed by wind and as the tree flexed back and forth sections of the grain were compacted and flexed over an over again. This creates ribbons of higher density cellulose...

Beautiful stock there sir!

Hi Hoss50, I had a CZ550 hogs-back like stock shape in 9.3x62 and it was a real strange duck. Caliber was great, but for some reason, that rifle accelerated on recoil like none-other I'd shot before. I'm 6'2" and was about 215 lbs at the time and really fit so not a light-weight in the...
