    Need help for a left hand gun

    First, figure out what your desired case base diameter is, then find out which other cartridges use the same size base. Keep the search in the realm of cartridges which have similar max CUP per SAAMI. Finding left hand actions isn't too difficult, but finding them in the heavier cartridges can...

    Whats your favorite Boot to wear ?

    After wearing out two pairs of Danner Acadias on the USMC 50,000 mile warranty, resoling them each two or three times, I absolutely swear by Danners. I have since switched to different models, one insulated and one not, both waterproof (in theory, but I've never known ANY boots to be waterproof...

    triggers

    Last I looked, there weren't any aftermarket triggers available yet for the Edge. You might want to check out Timney, Jewell, and Shilen, as well as Rifle Basix. One of them may have what you're looking for. Otherwise, take your rifle to a qualified gunsmith and have them do a trigger job on...

    This will make some people smile!

The joys of working for hourly wages...I miss being self employed! Anyone in the neighborhood that want some company...

    Where/who once fired brass

    If you're FL resizing, I don't see any problems with your brass feeding in a bolt gun, but if you're feeding a semiauto, you may want to choose a small base FL sizing die for a slightly reduced diameter which equals smoother feeding. I haven't had any issues with using once fired mil brass in...

    This will make some people smile!

    Makes us hunters smile, but I bet the DEC is cringing at their desks! When I spoke with a couple guys from DEC about hogs, they are under the impression that there's VERY few in state...I'm thinking that's not so much the case anymore... If you're finding them near Syracuse, and they're in MA...

    How much ammo (total) do you have (or have enough components to load)

    Well, in the glorious Republik of Kalifornia, crapola flies that wouldn't fly anywhere else...on the planet. As far as I am concerned, nobody on the planet needs to know what I may or may not have, how much I may or may not have, or anything of the sort. Microstamping? Yeah, right. ID &...

    How much ammo (total) do you have (or have enough components to load)

    Ok, let's get a couple things squared away, shall we? 1) There's no such thing as "too many" firearms. 2) There's no such thing as too much ammo. Nuff said.

    Have you been a good boy?

    For my folks to be with me next Christmas, and my brother to be safe and in one piece for the next year. And, next year, I'll wish for the same things again.

    Combined technologies .308

    I shoot them through my 300WSM, and like them a lot. It does take a couple foulers before it settles down and starts shooting like I know she can. Really no difference between a standard copper jacketed bullet and these for hte most part. The coating does give me a couple FPS more, no...

    308WIN, 175SMK's, and a Rem 700ADL Varmint

    Nathan, that's about what I figured for these particulars, and I do have some 168's on hand for another rifle that I was considering trying in this one as well. Thanks for the scoop! Dave

    308WIN, 175SMK's, and a Rem 700ADL Varmint

    Well, I'm not doing SQUAT until it warms up above 25! It's a "stupid cold" 11 degrees this morning, and that's just plain too cold for me!

    308WIN, 175SMK's, and a Rem 700ADL Varmint

    Ok, gang, I need a little guidance. I did the break in on my new 700, and it shot beautifully with a junk scope and junk ammo! Now, the real fun begins! In building a load for my rifle, I've researched the load significantly I think, and have been getting educated on the different means of...

    Crimp .223?

    I use range brass, but knowing the source and who's shooting it, (Federal and Lake City headstamps), and what it's been put through (AR's), I don't sweat the crimp. In some circumstances a crimp would be advised, like when used in a tubular magazine (Never heard of any 223 that used one of...
