    Dumb question about Ruger MK II sight

    I know this is a dumb question, but it is easier to ask a dumb question than screw the sights up. I want to adjust the sights, and I am wondering about which way to adjust left ( clockwise or counterclockwise) and which way to adjust to come up. I shot it at the range the other day and it groups...

    Motor for a homemade case tumbler

    I am looking for a motor size for a homemade case tumbler. I got a set of plans for it from a link in one of the threads a few months ago, but the article does not say anything about a motor voltage, and RPM. If anybody could tell me the size of the motor in their case tumbler (purchased or...

    Beretta Hammer Spring

    In the semi auto froum, someone mentioned replacing the factory hammer spring with a mdel D spring. Two things I am wondering about are: 1) Will this cause any adverse effects to a 92f (reliability,wear)? 2) Where can I get hold this spring?

    What is the opinion of the Ruger M77 MKII Target?

    I am looking at a used one in a gun shop here, in 22-250, and I am wondering what people think about them. Are the triggers adjustable or 3lbs or less from the factory? Are the barrels high quality? How accurate are they in general? Any opinions are appreciated.

    Reloading for the SKS

    I have read in reloading manuals that the Mini 30 and some SKS/AK47's use different bullet sizes (Mini 30: .308, SKS: .311). I was wondering if the Chinese Norinco SKS takes the .311 bullet or not. I would rather not find out by the firearm rupturing in my hand.

    How do you get a bayonet off a SKS?

    I just got a good deal on an SKS sporter at a gun show on Saturday. The only problem is that it still has the spike bayonet pinned on it. I took it to the range and got some weird looks when I started shooting it (the bayonet was down but still visible. I have no use for it being on the rifle...

    Deer load for a 7.62X39

    I was wondering what anybody here would use for a deer load for the 7.62X39. I am planning on using an SKS, if I can find a good load, and I prefer to use IMR if anybody has a good load, but I will take all suggestions. I wanted a short semi-auto rifle for brush hunting and this seemed to fit...

    10/22 REBUILD

    I am looking for a webpage that has information on how to disassemble a 10/22 and install target grade components. I have come across a cheap 10/22 and I want something to work on. I know it is cheaper to buy a 10/22T, but this is more fun and I will feel like I accomplished something in the end.

I am looking for a rifle, in 7MM R.M., to hunting deer and moose with but still be able to take to the range without beating myself to death. I have heard that the Savage rifle is much better than it used to be...

    Remington 597 Heavy Barrel

    I was wondering if anyone here had heard anything, good or bad about the Remington 597 heavy barrel. I am wondering how tough a gun they are, how good the magazines are compared to the Ruger, and how accurate they are compared to a Ruger. I like the Ruger 10/22T, but the Remington is almost half...

    I was on the Ruger webpage looking at the 10/22T's when I saw on the bottom of the page "NEW K10/22TNZ". It had no picture so I have no idea what it looks like. I was wondering if anyone knew what it looked like. I would like to see one soon 'cause I am thinking about another .22 and I am a...

    Bipod problems

    I thought that someone here could answer my question better than anywhere else. I have a Harris tilting benchrest bipod, and it has been tightened up so that it does not swivel. I was wondering if someone knew how to loosen it up again so that it will tilt again.

    Refinishing a Mauser Stock

    I have a Mauser M38 (cut down M96) that my father gave to me. It was a tack driver the last time I shot her, but it has seen some hard years since the last time I shot her. The stock is not dinged up, but is quite dirty and could use a refinish. Can this oil finished stock, I think the Mausers...

    Browning with BOSS

    I am looking at a new rifle in the near future, unfortunately I do not have the space for my reloading equipment where I have moved to. I was thinking that the BOSS would be better for me in 7MM since I can tune the gun to the ammo and the recoil is reduced so i can do long shooting sessions at...

    .300 WIN Mag rifle and recoil

    I am considering selling my .270 due to my father giving me his 6.5X55. I reload so I can do almost anything I did before with this new rifle.
