    Getting some pretty exciting 2 and 3 round bursts.

    I have a Palmetto State Armory AR-10 308 style rifle. Several weeks ago I had a slam fire. Using commercial brass and CCI magnum primers. This weekend after switching to CCI's primers for semi autos I have had two slam fires. One was just two rounds, but another was 3 rounds in a row. I don't...

    New PA-10 build

    Last year I bought a blemished PA-10 blem lower. This year I bought the lower parts and the complete upper. I bought the 20" upper since I already have a DPMS GII Recon with the 16" barrel. I am hoping this will be a reasonably accurate rifle.

    I am building an PSA 308, with a 20" upper?

    What would be a good scope? It's mainly going to be a bench gun.

    Adding a new bench

    So I have added a new bench to my reloading room. It is just a counter top. Press board with a cheap laminate top. I'm thinking about moving my single stage press to it. But I'm not sure how to re enforce it so it can handle the stress.

    Need two new scopes

    All right so here is my issue, I have a Tikka in 243 for varmint and yote hunting, I have a 300 win mag, and I am building another AR-10 308. I currently have a Nikon Monarch in 4-16x with mil dot's on the 243. I really like that scope and am leaning towards putting it on the 300 win. I would...

    I need to find a rifle for my soon to be 10yr old son to hunt with. Where would be the best place to look? I have a .54cal trade rifle and I have kinda always wanted a plains rifle, so I am thinking about buying me a new rifle and then just cutting the stock down on my trade rifle for him...

    Would like to change my gas block

    I have a smith and Wesson sport with a fixed front post. I would like to remove it as I plan on adding a scope to this rifle. I know the scope should see past it, but it still picks up shadows of it on low power. This is not a free floated set up and the gas block on their now seems to be...

    DPMS G2 LR 308 Recon. Initial review.

    I finally got out to shoot my new Rifle last night. It came in last Thursday. While at my gun Smith/FFL I had him mount my scope and bore site it.

    How long does shipping take?

    I ordered a rifle from Cheaper than Dirt yesterday and it said 10-15 day's to get it shipped. Does any one know if it really does take that long or are they just covering themselves? If you don't like CTD please don't tell me, I don't care if you do or don't. Your issues are not my issues...

    Well I thought I made up my mind,

    but then I found out that the M&P 10 has very little to offer as far as after market parts go. After Talking to the CS rep at Smith and Wesson I would have to buy a special hand guard though them or one of their vendors. So I decided to take the plunge and order the DPMS G2SASS. It seems to...

    I just got a new toy

    I came across a post on another forum recommending The Little Crow gun Works case trimmer, so after reading a bunch of positive feed back on it at midway I decided to give it a try. Yes it is spendy and I would not recommend this for every caliber one shoots, I am certainly not going to buy one...
