Hi all I have a 442-1 that barely has 2 boxes through it. I hadn’t shot it since last year and yesterday pulled it out of my safe to wipe down and oil. I had a pair of pants that was more conducive to pocket carry so I went to load it and the cylinder is very difficult to swing open or close...

Hey all. So I dropped in to a local match just to check it out with the intention of shooting it next month as I had never shot one before. They offered me a spot on the line so I informally just felt things out, shot the stages and tried to stay out of their way. Needless today I had a blast...

Hi all. I am sort of looking for an older Colt Target or Match Target HBAR. Question is when I go to Colts serial number lookup and comes back as not found. This has happened with 3 rifles I am looking at. Any idea what gives? There is one locally a Match Target HBar Serial CMH000xxx that need...

Hi all. I bought a used FX II fixed 4x33 because I wanted a blued one for my CZ527. It appears that the dials are on the wrong turrets. Windage is on the side as it should be but is labeled Up. Threw me for a Loop. Are they changeable? A factory error? Someone else do it? Don’t know that I like...

Hi all. Are there any ranges that offer 2-1000 yds or somewhere in between? I am in Wilmington. I know that they have matches out at Stone Bay on LeJeune, but I would love a club atmosphere to spend a day and meet people, work up loads etc. I am aware of Anthill and Buccaneer. Even pay to play...

Hi all I have reached the age where it is difficult to even focus on this screen! I need readers to read, but see to distance just fine. I have no problem focusing on a scope but I cant see the front sight on my AR anymore. I still can on a Garand due to longer sight radius only. My issue is if...

I am looking for a complete rifle solely for target work. I have no time or desire to build one. My goal is accuracy. Recommendations? Thanks.

Do you guys Loctite your lock down screw to keep this from happening? Mine rattled loose. I have only shot at once sent sighting in. Thank you.

To make it short one of our local administrators told the students that if they had an assembly they would be “easy targets”for the March 14 walk out. The local schools have been cramming anti-gun rhetoric down the kids ever sinceb the Florida shooting. That is all they can talk about and they...

Hi all. I have a used CZ75 b pre Omega that I love. I want to start carrying it and may even pick up a 75 Compact for that purpose. How many rounds before you trust a pistol to carry in general? Thanks.

Hi all. As previously stated I have loaded some 9mm with Win 231. To me that is pretty straight forward. Good enough for plunking and IDPA is all I need. I have 4 rifles (2 different calibers) I need to work up loads for. I am looking for a regimented way to keep it all organized. I figure I...

Hi all. I have the Lee classic turret press kit which has pretty much everything in it to start loading with including hand case prep, manual all that kind of stuff scale. I have already loaded 9mm and am getting ready to embark on 223 and 30-06. I have probably thousands of cases of 9mm and 223...

Hi all. I just paid for me what is good money for a CZ 527 American in .223. I know that there is no real consensus on barrel break in and everybody has different opinions, but I was doing some reading on cleaning and accuracy and came across this site. Part 4 talks about swabbing a clean barrel...

Are they all generally the same for the AR or there match grade etc?

Hi all. I think I am going to start the build of a target AR. All I now is at this point it will be a 20 inch 1:7 or 8 twist with a fixed stock and a Vortex 4-12 Diamondback on top. Those that run 20 inch barrels do you typically run 7 or 8 twist? Most barrels are the 8 twist. Also I am...

Palmetto State Armory. I am tempted to order an upper from them, but their reviews are horrible. At least in terms of service, communication and shipping.

Hi all. I got a one piece .22 cleaning rod from Walmart. On the end of it is a little adapter that screws on so you can put different size accessories on it. The problem is that is a little larger than the rod itself, is made of some kind of cheap alloy and has a waffled type surface for grip. I...

Hi all. I have my Dad's Sears Model 5 (Winchester 150) that is the one I introduce the kids to shooting with. Problem is that it shoots a little high and to the right. The rear buck horn sight won't go any lower so I guess my only option now that I think about it is to replace the front sight...

Hi all. I loaded some 115 FMJ with Win 231 and CCI primers. Off the top of my head I can't remember how many grains at the moment. Anyway I had a squib in my Glock yesterday and the bullet only got maybe an inch into the barrel and stopped. I punched it out going the direction of the rifling and...

Hi all. I just picked up this beautiful rifle that I had on layaway. Mostly this rifle will be used for punching paper 100-600 yards. They only other use may be Coyotes, but I would need decent target acquisition as well. I am thinking Leupold simply because of their warranty, reputation, and...
