    M&P 15 immediate upgrades?

    picking up a MP-15T 16" free float 223. What upgrades would you do right away? I plan to swap out the trigger to a LaRue. Would you automatically swap in a H buffer as well? What else? it is midlength gas. Do you typically run a H buffer with that.

    Favorite 308 ammo or loads for hunting.

    We have got a couple 308s to try, semi autos. I was wondering what are your best loads or factory ammo choices for hunting with your 308s. I am thinking 150-165 gr. for deer. Maybe a coyote or hog someday

    Scope for M1A opinions.

    So if you were going to scope an M1A in order to make torso sihlouette hits at 500 yds. and not be too heavy what would you pick? Something with a custom 7.62 Dial? I am thinking about a basset low mount, 30 mm rings and a Mark 3HD 4-12X40 paralax adjustable. It only weighs around 17 oz...

    AR10 Muzzle brake options

    What 2 or 3 chamber brakes are you guys throwing on your AR10's these days? Looking for a good one, not too heavy or long for a hunting rig. I dont want it to affect accuracy either, so needs to be quality part.

    223 64 gr. suggested OAL.

    Bullet is a Power point Win. 64 grain. Question is if you were going to reload some hunting 223 rounds for shooting through a couple AR15 and a bolt action, what would be a good suggested OAL. That would function fine through all three, be safe and serviceable accuracy. Thank you

    Where to find 117 gr. Prohunters?

    Due to the fact that I shoot a 257 Weatherby, I'd like to find some more 117 gr. Pro Hunters. It is a discontinued bullet offering from Sierra. I reload these and they are a very good bullet for the high speeds of the Weatherby. So with the recent madness, I have a hard time finding them...

    Suggestions for M&P 10 handguard?

    Hello, I am toying with the idea of overhauling my M&P 10. Maybe time to add a free float handguard, change the gas block, and muzzle device. Suggestion? I think I would like a 12" handguard, quality, and light. Any ideas?

    130 gr. Hot Cor

    Bottom line, in a good rifle, is a 277 speer hot cor going to be accurate enough for deer to 300 yds. every time, assuming the shooter does their part? I am talking first line bullets, not blems or seconds. I have some and the lead tips are a little more ugly than sierra or hornady.

    odd high flier with rifle

    I've got a wood stocked bolt action centerfire hunting rifle. I have tried two loads. One was factory and grouped about 2" at 110 yds. Recently tried a trusted handload. The rifle predictably will group three within an inch and then will throw an odd flier 1-1.5" high at 100 yds. As high as...

    1 piece or 2 piece scope bases?

    I once bought a short action Rem 700 rifle. I casually asked the seller if a 1 piece or 2 piece scope base should be utilized. He quickly responded that I should use a 1 piece base because it stiffens the action, and he said this was very important. Do you think this has any merit?

    What Scope for AR15?

    I just bought a couple AR15 mounts, one is a 1" the other is a 30 mm. Problem is what scope should I get? I was using a 4X scope with some real thick cross hairs and we didn't like it. This would be for plinking/hunting/2A (hopefully never) purposes. What are you guys pitting on your AR's...

    bolt action rifle stock fitment question

    I did a stock swap, putting really nice stock from a 1984 Ruger M77 onto a 1987 M77 action. Now the fitment was pretty snug. More so than usual. As the action screw tightened it made you think it was torqued but then if you squeezed the barrel it would crunch or slip down a little. did this...
