Hi! Does the Millett DMS-1 1-4x24 take the recoil of a rifle chambered in .308? I am asking because: 1. The scope is extremely inexpensive 2. Millett has a good reputation and they say it takes recoil up to the .375 H&H 3. It was mainly designed for the AR-plattform in .223 which has very...

Hi! What can you tell me about the Super Sniper Scopes?? http://www.supersniper.com/ They are so bloody cheap but claim to be able to handle the force of a .50BMG rifle! (Maybe once? :D ) Is it even possible to make a decent scope that cheap? :confused: I am currently looking for a good scope...

Hi! I have a problem with my Savage 110 .30-06 and I hope you can help me! It shoots great, accurate as hell! BUT! I shot about 50 rounds through it and once I couldn't pull the trigger! A life round was chambered and as I tried to pull the accu-trigger it just made a ''tinging'' sound, the...

Hi! Short question, I have bought a Mosin Nagant M44 carbine, looks very good! First thing I did after cleaning the gun was checking the firing pin with the firing pin gauge. As you know the firing pin must touch the ''75'' slot on the gauge, but it must not touch the ''95'' slot. Well, I...

Hi! Quick question, I just bought a Mosin Nagant M44 1945 izhevsk arsenal, checked the gun, its like new, 100% bluing, very nice. Checked the bore & muzzle, its so shiney, its unreal. :eek: Could it be possible that this specimen has a chrome lined barrel? Did the russian chrome line barrels...

Hey guys! I was just wondering, I am looking for a new rifle and what do you think about the remington 7600? Any opinions? Hows the reliability? Hows the gun overall, accuracy, durability, action smoothnes.... Does the 7600 use the 20gauge remington reciever so that I can use the stocks and...

Hi! I am planning to get my a Ruger m77, I just wanted to ask if the parts of this rifles are really made from cast steel? Is it strong enough to withstand .308? I am not too fond of cast steel and I want a rifle which withstands thousands of rounds and decades of use. Thanks!

Has anyone chronoed' Bornaghi 00 plated buckshot 2 3/4''? I shot it through my shotgun yesterday and I cant help, it has less recoil than any other buckshot load I every shot. Maybe its just me - or this rounds are pretty weak. Thanks!

Hi! I think I have a headspace issue with a rifle I just bought half a year ago. Ok, I was shooting .308 factory ammo through it, a unfired case is 2.003 to 2.006'' long, a fired case was 2.015 to 2.020 long. Isnt that a bit much of ''stretching'' for the brass? The brass does not show any...

Hi all! I bought an Enfield Mk4 clone made from AIA in .308, (Australian International Arms), shoots straight, feels good, looks great. As I cleaned it I pulled the bolt and noticed that the locking lugs on the bolt are only ''used halfway'' in the receiver. I am afraid that the rifle will get...

Short question: Does anybody know what kind of bullet design / weight the grunts in the sandbox currently shoot through their M14-/DMR/EBR? As far as I know there hasn't been as much development to the 7.62 bullet design as to the 5.56, so does the 7.62x51 FMJ give an extra advantage in...

Hi! I have a question about my shotgun shooting buckshot with chokes. I have a short double barrel EAA coachgun threaded for chokes. First I tried 00 buckshot without filler with cylinder chokes installed, about palm sized pattern at 12 yards. Next same buck through full chokes - and guess...

Hi! I am looking for a new laminated stock for a 98K - I am totally sure that I've seen new stocks made by some well known company, I thought it was ram line but I havent found anything at their website. :confused: They DO exist, I still have the picture of the very light colored wood stock in...

I would like to build a semi-serious scout rifle and found a VERY good deal on a browning A-bolt (350 bucks) in .308, but I dont know anything about brownings. It has a nice stainless finish and a synthetic stock and is almost like new. It may not be perfect, but 350?

Hi! I am planning do build a scout-type rifle on a mauser 98 action chambered in .308. I want a small scope like 1.4-5x32 or something in that power level, mounted with a see-through scope mount to be able to use the iron sights for close quarter aiming. So I wanted to know how you like...

Hi! I've just got me a Levergun and I have a question about it, I have only bolt guns and thats my first lever. Its a Rossi Puma 92. .357/38. Its brand new, does the action get smoother over time or should I work the action with more force? On closing when the locking lugs go into the slide...

Hi! I am looking for a short and handy fast repeating knock-around rifle for home defence. I live alone in a remote location in a house with brick wall so overpenetration is no issue. I am not from the US and semi-auto rifles are pretty hard to get and I always had a soft spot for lever action...
