    IMR 4895 vs H 4895

    I'm sure this question has been asked before so please forgive me, but yesterday I had a guy give me about 4 ibs of H4895. I've always used IMR4895. Are things close enough between these two powders to interchange? I was just going to use it to make bulk .223 using 55gr FMJ keeping it around...

    Mossberg MVP Patrol 223

    I noticed a little rifle at a gun store today. It is a Mossberg MVP Patrol in 223/5.56. Bolt action that uses an AR mag. I have a Remington 7615 pump 223/5.56 that uses an AR mag. I thought the bolt gun would be a nice addition. Has anyone had any experience with the Mossberg? Anyone know which...

    Really disappointed in Kimber

    Recently I went into a local gun store and saw a real clean Kimber 22 conversion kit for 1911 frames. It was in the Kimber blue plastic box. Came with the slide, manual, and magazine. It was in great shape. Took it home and could not get it to slide on to any 1911 frame I had. I tried it on 4...

    Sako L61R Finnbear

    I recently purchased one of these from a fella at a great price because the wood had a crack in it. Real shame, beautiful rifle. I went to the Sako site to see if they had a replacement stock and did not see the Finnbear listed. I know I could probably order one from Boyds, but I'd really like...

    Load for 22 Nosler

    Acquired a 22 Nosler in an AR platform. Just wondering if anyone had worked up a good load for their 22 Nosler before I start messing with it. I also see where not a lot of folks make 22 Nosler brass. Found one called Dog Town, and Nosler of course.

    Remington 700 Boone & Crockett series 7mm mag

    Picked up a very nice rifle today. Saw a very pretty rifle on the used rack. Turned out to be a Remington 700 Boone & Crockett series in 7mm mag. Read up on it and it stated it was from 2008. The gun looks brand new. My only concern is it appears to have a sporter weight fluted barrel that is 26...

    Rifles that don't bore sight well

    I've been shooting a long time like most of us in here. Every once in a while we come across that rifle that we slip the bolt out of, get it lined up at an object and then tweek our scope to line up. We fire the rifle and we have no idea where that round went. But we have done this simple...

    Sako 85 eject problem

    I saw a Sako 85 Finnlight that a guy was selling that I'd really like to purchase. After doing some reading and studying on the rifle I have seen a few posts that there is an eject problem with the spent shell casing. I read where people say the spent casing ejects straight up, hits the bottom...

    Timney trigger vs Adjusting stock trigger on Rem 700

    I have watched YouTube videos on folks adjusting their Rem 700 trigger. They tell you to scrape away some kind of a sealant over the front hole on the trigger housing and then adjust with a Allen wrench. Sounds simple enough. And of course there is the Timney replacement trigger. I have placed...
