My apologies! Posted in wrong place.Belongs in Handloading.Mods,please move.Thanks! Was poking around on the Sierra site.They have a new line.Plastic tipped MatchKings.Ups the BC considerably.The 77 gr .224 bullet is .420 above 2400.

I'm doing a little "in the head engineering" on a project I'm likely to do. From decades ago,I have a sporterized already P-14 Enfield action.I'm thinking of building a 338 Lapua on it. I want to do it as economically as possible,with the least amount of effort to get a good tool. Lets call...

Impulse led me to buy a typical cut down to sporter...sort of like a carbine Krag with a horrid bore.As far as original...a true sow's ear. I did find a cut off 22 in bbl with a good bore.Its installed. Sights..this Krag says 1894 for a mfg date.Sight appears to be 1896 variant. The...

Second,I would not do anything to an...

Latest local news:Two police cars broken into,and the "30 round semi-auto rifles" inside were stolen.I assume AR's.Supposedly they were locked in vertical racks inside the car.Theft described as "overnight" Does anyone leave visible firearms locked in their car overnight?Seems negligent. This...

A landowner who lets me hunt has a Hornady AP Loc-n-load press.He does not have a single stage press for little jobs. I'd like to set him up cheap with a single stage that will take Loc-n-load bushings. I know,Hornady makes one.It costs too much. Lee makes a cheapo quick change setup for a...

Maybe I should have put this in "Hunting" I am not a lawyer,and I am not telling you you can or cannot do anything. I was listening to the radio half asleep,this went by once,and I did not take notes.It was an outdoors show,talking about hunting.A call in question about hunting and felons and...

I did not want to hijack the thread on the tragic story about the child and the Uzi. I long ago read a book"Mountaineering;Freedom of the Hills" Part of the book looked at case studies of fatal mountaineering accidents.An observation was,when a group of peers goes out,there is a reluctance for...

At this point,I have no need to buy/sell,but suppose two people wanted to transfer 20 rd magazines and they both were Colorado residents. To expand this a bit,suppose a Coloradoan had a Mini-14 with 6 ct 20 rd mags and wanted to sell face to face to another Coloradoan. Would they be technically...

Two I took a couple pairs of vise grips in my gear this year.Getting ahold of the hide with vise grips is just easier.Saves your pinching muscles. A friend gave me a Frost brand hunting knife with a molded plastic sheath.The sheath looks like a fillet knife sheath.Its rigid,with a...

State Senators Giron and Morse,who supported the restrictive anti=gun laws in Colorado,have been fired by the good citizens of Colorado.The recall election was successful in unseating them. It can be done.Its a good day.

This came up in another thread asking if the rules of "enough scope" have changed. I suggested some folks believe a powerful scope is a good observation tool to sweep and scan with. In my opinion,this results in pointing a rifle at targets that have not been identified.I have seen people glass...

For more years than I have toes I've had a Remington 513T receiver with no bolt to take up space in a box around my bench. A little on line shopping has produced a very nice stock,a bolt,and a barrel that looks as new.Also,a Redfield 75 receiver sight.I have the mounting block. The barrel is...
