Hello all, I looked through the threads but none addressed my question, which is, what is a fair price to have a scope mounted on a Browning A-bolt ? I'm having a fellow from work I know who says he can mount this Leupold Mark 4 on my rifle and I wanted to know what I might expect for a...

Well I did a stupid...I recently moved and packed up all my notes, gear, etc in boxes, totes, etc. I have yet to unpack and find and sort all my notes, gear, etc and I wanted to remove and replace two of my scopes on two of my rifles. Thinking I knew where the info was I removed the scopes and...

Hello all. Quick question and probably a dumb one at that. Anyway, the manual on the rifle in question (FN Scar 17s) says NOT to use lube in any way, shape, or form on the gas piston, gas regulator and the gas block. OK, question is : Can I use CLP on the parts to clean them and then wipe...

Gentlemen: Happy Fathers Day to all first off and then to my question. I value the input of all on this forum and did my research first before I asked this silly question. I have data concerning Winchester 760 powder but different manuals show different start/max load data. One manual by...

Hello all, was doing some reloading and noticed a rather large discrepancy in two of my reloading manuals. My Lee manual is a 2003 edition and my Metallic Cartridge Reloading manual is a 1996 edition. Lee shows starting grains of 50.6 to max of 54.0 and my MCR book shows starting load of 55.0...

I have a question concerning some bullets I purchased at a garage sale. I bought these and they were still sealed but upon opening the box I found that the foam inside the box had deteriorated to this(see pics). What I would like to know is what would be the best way to clean these bullets so...

Never had this happen before and was wondering if any of you guys(or girls :)) had had this happen to you. I was out shooting yesterday, enjoying the sun and some new loads I had made up. I was inspecting each of the rounds after each shot and discovered this one after one of the shots. The...

Hello all, and thanks for all the help in the past but I have a new problem however with some rounds I recently loaded. I had some pre primed brass that I reloaded with powder and bullets and some factory rounds. Shot them and the pics show the primers. #1 was the factory round and it looks...

Ok, after having the discussion on why you need small base dies for .223 instead of FL dies(for AR's) I am opting on getting the small base dies for my AR. ( I already have RCBS FL .223 dies). My question is this: Since I already have the FL and seater dies from RCBS, if I buy a Redding small...

I would like some information on reloading for .50BMG. Headspace! I have been reading about headspace and its importance and am somewhat confused. Headspace, as I understand it, is the distance from the middle of the shoulders of a case(or where the shoulders sit against the breech of the...

Well it has happened and I am at my wits end. I am reloading on a LEE classic cast press for the 50 BMG and I have gotten a case stuck in the press and I mean STUCK. I have done what the paperwork says to do( rap the decapper with a hammer to unstick) but I have rapped on the darn thing till...

I'm looking to put a good quality scope on my Bushmaster BA-50 but I don't want to be stupid and fork over 2 grand on one. I would like to know if anyone shoots a fifty and what scope they have and why they like it. My budget is between 1000.00 and 1200.00 but I don't want to cheap out either...
