    204 Ruger - Fouling

    I've yet to see a good looking Savage barrel, but most do seem to shoot well despite it. I tell everyone that all those tooling chatter marks reduce friction so you get a higher velocity :cool:

    Finally after all these year bought inch pound torque wrench for rifle scopes

    I've taken quite a few low cost torque wrenches to work and put them on their calibration machines. Unless abused it's unusual to find one out enough to matter.

    Is the .17WSM dead?

    Keep an eye on Walmart. They get 2-3 box allotments per store every few months. I've picked up quite a few 20gr loads in the last year.

    Tucker will make Liberal heads explode tomorrow !!

    Go back and listen to some Putin's speeches in the last couple years. It's enlightening. He's pretty much against all the crap being jammed down our throats since Biden got in. I don't like him but he does like his country, unlike our leaders.

    All the similar reticles are great for prairie dogs.

    Rifle Safe Recommendations

    Fire ratings are way over blown. Pretty much everything will sustain some damage or be ruined in the typical residential gun safe.

    Rifle Safe Recommendations

    It’s all about slowing them down. We have a block walled in basement pantry. The safe is in a corner so there’s concrete on two sides and bolted down. Heavily loaded shelves on the other side. Just enough room to swing the door open. Doesn’t make it easy to work on. If we were planning on...

    Lets talk 17's for fur.

    Usually bring two of the 17's on a trip and only use them when the range is limited. Cheaper shooting that way.
