I've been in talks with a company that makes chamber flags. My concern is that after a 20 round string the chamber MAY be hot enough to melt said plastic. Has anyone checked chamber temp after a string? What are the competition shooters using? Thanks.

Thought occurred to me. Has anyone bothered to bed the action on a bolt action shotgun?

So i use Federal 215 magnum primers in my 7mm Rem Mag. I've been hearing about people using the Federal 210 primer. Suppossed to stabilize ES/DS. Thoughts?

Have seen these semi autos at Dicks & Field & Stream. Looking at the Sporting 20 gauge for spring turkey season. At $399 with 5 chokes included and full 2 yr warrenty, kind of hard to pass over. Was just wondering if anyone here has tried one.

Well after trying to do as much research as i could i "pulled the trigger", and ordered one. The S-TAC 4-20X50 should show up on my doorstep on Sunday from Amazon. I'm planning to mount it to my Mauser in 284 Win. Will give short term and long term reviews.

Went out today. Left house at 4am. got to Moshannon State Forest at 6am. Still dark. Just as it was beginning to turn gray, I got my stuff together, and with it just being light enough to see where I was stepping, started off down the gas line. About 500 yards in I happened to look further...

So i've picked up a Savage 110 FP in 223 Rem. Question is do i need to reset headspace if i change it to 223 Wylde? Or is it simple a throat change? Thanks

So while perusing my local shop I came acrossa Savage 110 FP. Chambered in 223. Need to sell the Rossi R243 that she now has. And pick up dies, bullets, primers for 223. Thinking the new AT-One stock from Boyds, along with an aftermarket trigger. EGW 20MOA solid base. Vortex rings. Sightron...

I'm looking at a new scope. Have heard about the Sightron S-TAC 4-20X50 with MOA2 reticle. Any input from you good people? Getting good reviews on Optics Planet. I know the Europeans seem to like Sightron.

If you use an app for hunting, finding property owners, boundaries and such, which do you use? For example Hunt Stand, or On X Maps.

Has anyone heard anything about the PA elk lottery drawing. Past 2 years they live streamed it on Youtube. This year nothing. No news on the game commission's website either. If anyone hears anything, please give me a shout. Std7mag

I was wondering if anyone had heard of anything being done about the ITAR definitions? I may be able to afford the BATFE application for purposes of gunsmithing, but there is no way i could afford ITAR registration.

Would the seating from the lands be the same for different bullet weights? For example i shoot the 140gr Berger VLD Hunting seated 0.005 off of the lands. Would/should the 168gr Berger VLD Hunting use the same distance in the same rifle?

So I'm looking to upgrade my spotting scope situation. Alas, I know... "Good glass cost money, how good do you wanna go?" Money is freak'n tight!! I'm looking at the Landscout, Ultima, and Up Close.. Something in the 60mm range. One of my main considerations is that I frequently go 2+...

I've been checking out lever actions for a light weight brush gun. The Rossi, Henry in 45 Colt. Then i saw the Ruger American Ranch in 450 Bushmaster. 5.5lbs, 16,5" barrel with muzzle brake. Put a red dot on and hit the bush. Any thoughts?

Long story short. I'm interested in gunsmithing, more than the stuff I've already done at home. The gunsmiths in my area are too busy to take someone on to train. Would doing a school such as Penn Foster get me in some doors, or would I just be throwing my money down the hole?? (from what I...

Just to let you know, Hornady has released their 2017 "manual" already. I got mine at Walmart.

So I've done all the drawings for some wildcat cartridges that I'd like to experiment with. Problem is that the parent casings are $108 for 20...:eek: So I've done my research, and am getting ready to get my metal lathe, and tooling. Yep, have decided to machine my own casings. I'm looking...

So I have been studying different cartridges, and have looked at a design which I would like to further invest in. While doing research, I ran across the patents owned by the former gun magazine writer John R. Jamison. In his patents, he has pretty well locked up development on any "magnum"...

I had posted previously that my Milspec Champion had developed a crack in the slide, about 1 inch from the muzzle, and ran up both sides, towards the top. I had contacted Springfield Armory. They sent a pre-paid Fedex shipping label. Sent pistol in( was cleaned first). Total time pistol was...
