    Shot handgun's today

    Went out with my son, daughter in law and her dad shooting today. They brought along a bunch of 1 gal milk jugs full of water. Kids brought along their AR type rifles in 223 so they put a couple jugs out about 100 yds for them. Son shot at them with a 9mm Sig and came close a few times. So I got...

    Bolt action stiff #2

    Read that thread and saw the comment about the front action screw being to long. I've got a couple Mossberg Patriot's that maybe I shouldn't fool with but, that front action screw on then goes a bit to deep and touch's the thread's on the barrel threads. Haven't done a thing with the bedding on...

    Couple new Stormy shots

    These were just a day or so ago. Newest I have of him. I have two birds planted here. Watching the first bird go. Let it get out a bit then flushed the second. He's watching it leave here. A brother asked me one time what that blue collar with the antena was. Garmin GPS tracking collar!

    7mm Rem Mag and Hornady 162gr ELD-X

    Working on a rifle for a friend and ran into something I've never seen before. Started seating the bullet's just off the lands. Left plenty of room in the magazine. Working up a load, I always fire one round at a time. Did the same with this one. Then I found the rounds wouldn't feed from the...

    $1600 vrs $300 gun

    My son has a Christian something or other AR rifle in 223. We went out plinking this weekend and got on a fairly small rock at 302 yds measured. Shot my $300 243 six times at it hitting every time. He shot that 223 six times and hit it 5 time's. Then we went to my 1903 Springfield with 2 3/4x...

    sizing question

    I have always heard about using small base dies for auto loading, pump and lever rifles. Guess that the head can probably be sized down too? If that's it, wouldn't you think a small base die might tighten up a primer pocket on older case's? I've never use a small base die! But I have about 50...

    Timney Trigger

    Got a Timney for my Rem 788 a couple months ago and got it in but the bolt stop would not contain the bolt. I could stand the rifle on it's butt, open the bolt and let it fall and it would fall right out of the gun. Well this morning I got ahold of them on their service computer line and told...

    Wood stocks and heavier rifles

    Anybody on here that never fired a rifle with a wood stock? My Mossberg Partiot came with a plastic stock And getting home with it I immediately ordered a wood replacement from Mossberg. Shot the rifle a few time's before getting the wood stock and swapped immediately. It's a 243 so recoil is...

    Two 243's

    First time in my life I've had two rifles in the same cartridge at the same time. Got the 700 ADL as a gift years ago, never was happy with it. Plastic stock's are ugly! Didn't shoot worth spit either. Lot of bedding work and it shoot's pretty good. But, I seldom took it out. About a week ago I...

    Went to it today but before leaving a friend called to tell me of a shop in Redmond that had a 700 ADL wood stock. He sure did, in fct two of them. Called him to make sure he wasn't going to the gunshow and he wasn't so he was right on the way. Great little shop! I could camp out in that place...

Past 8 or 10 years I haven't even shot it much. decided it's gonna be my elk rifle this year. Had it to the gun smith years ago and the barrel he described as badly...
