    AR-15 rear sight

    I am getting an AR with a flat top and was thinking of getting a rear flip up sight. The one I'm looking at doesn't have an elevation adjustment so I was wondering how it would be sighted in. It's a 300m sight, so is it already set for this distance when bolted on to the rail? Any asistance...

    My new toy

    Got my newest rifle back from the gunsmith the other day. It's a Rem 700P in 223 with a Leupold Mark 4, 4.5-14x40 duplex reticle on it. Had the smith put a Shilen triger set at 1.5 lbs, badger base and rings, and a badger bolt knob on it. Have not had a chance to shoot it yet, but going to go...

    DPMS Panther arms

    Anyone have an AR-15 DPMS? What do you think of these rifles? My buddy got one in 223 at an auction, and I'd never heard of them, but I'm not into the semi tacticle rifles either. I would like to hear your opinions. Thanks, Brad

    fox hunt

    Shot my first fox tonight. Was out calling Coyotes at a buddies place with a Johnny stewert Electronic caller. I was in a tree stand and the little fella came right underneath me. The shot was straight down at about 25 feet. Those V-Max do something nasty that close. There was about a 4 in...

    Rem 700 PSS 223

    I just bought this rifle and had a question about barrel break in. What do I do? Should I clean inbetween every shot for the first 20-30? Should I use a strong copper solvent every 10th shot? I use Butches bore shine on my other guns. What cleaners do you recomend for getting the shipping...

    223 rifle twist

    I'm kinda confused on twist rate for 223. can you still shoot 50 or 55 grain bullets out of a barrell with a 1-9"twist, or is this twist rate only for heavier bullets? Or, does the faster twist rate cover most bullet weight for this caliber. I was looking to get a rifle for varmints and...

    Varmint rifle

    I was wanting to get some opinions on what I should buy. I want something that will reach at least 300 yrds. Should I go with a 243. I know there are a lot of good rifles, Win, Rem, maybe Savage. I will probably use it for coyotes and target shooting.
