    243 Factory Brass

    I'm about to start reloading .243 and thought that instead of buying brass that I might instead just buy an initial batch of 100 rounds of factory ammo....shooting it and getting a baseline for accuracy on my rifle, cleaning up the brass, and then loading it.

    Budget MOA Rifle

    I've been tossing around the idea of getting a budget MOA rifle that is light on recoil and won't break the bank on ammo. I know that the phrase "budget MOA" might be construed as an oxymoron but is that always true? Some companies are offering MOA guarantees on 3-shot groups with match ammo so...

Realistically is there any setup where you can envision this working on-body? The closest I could imagine would be OWB on shorts worn under a...

    Combo/survival rifle vs Separate Guns

    I'm in the process of planning to restock my rather depleted armory. I've got a sidearm covered and an AR in the works as a primary defence rifle. my question is about the remaining areas of what we'd call an arsenal. specifically the question of a shotgun and a .22 rifle which everyone always...

    80% lower difficulty level for 1st timer?

    Hello...how hard is it to assemble an 80% lower? I've had ar's, ak's, and many other platforms for some years and enjoyed all of them but I've wondered about building one myself to make it exactly to my liking. I'm a female with zero experience with milling or machining in general. I have...
