    Rem 700 barrel

    Can anyone recommend a decent Remington 700 .308 bull barrel in 1:10 twist. I probably want it to be about 20" but I could have it chopped down when it gets sent off for threading. Blued or parkerized barrels are preferred. Since you are probably wondering this barrel will be used to shoot...

    Looking for a nice O/U

    Hey guys, I am looking for a very nice O/U for my dad for his birthday. He used to be really into bird hunting and sporting clay shooting years ago but ended up selling his O/U. I recently got him an 870 to get back into it and he loves it. (He loves the sporting clays, he no longer hunts)...

    Brass

    I shoot .30-06 at the range occasionally and I was wondering what I could do with the left over brass? I use my rifle primarily for hunting and don't plan to shoot more than 100-200 cartridges per year, so reloading does not really make sense for me. Is there somewhere I could sell the brass...

    R3 recoil pad - AWESOME!

    Shot my new Rem 700 .30-06 with R3 recoil pad today and was shocked to feel how little recoil there was. Probably the nicest pad I have ever felt on a gun! Shot about 40 catridges today and my shoulder can't tell. I have shot 2 other .30-06's this year and they can kick! It feels like...

    Leupold VX-I vs. VX-II

    Well I just bought the VX-I for my rifle a few days ago. Think I made the right choice? I couldn't see much of a difference between the VX-I and VX-II... If the VX-II really is worth the extra money I could always return my VX-I. I just know if it is worth the trouble.. P.S. The scope is...

    How do you guys rate the Timney Triggers? Do they install easily and are they easily adjustable? (Or is that something I would want to have a gun smith do? I am a little weary of messing with the stock trigger as I have no prior experience tampering with triggers. Is the Timney easier to...
