    Remy 700 ADL Rings and Base Question

    The current issue of American Handgunner has an article on Rohrbaughs. The article states that the springs must be replaced every 100 rounds. Just wondering how often you Rohrbaugh owners actually replace the Wolf springs.

    I was driving to work today around 7:30 this morning. Two cars, a small Toyota and a full size Dodge, approached a southbound road from opposite directions.The Toyota came from the west and swung a wide turn crossing over two lanes. Bad driving skills to say the least. In the process he almost...
