    Can You Straighten Brass

This particular ones has been set up as a match rifle and a few years ago I had a load worked up that shot a 1.5 inch group at 100 yards from prone with a sling, that...

    Rifle Scopes any first impressions of the Athlon Ares BTR?

    For those of you that have one. How easy do the turrets turn? Are they stiff enough that they will not get turned pulling a rifle out of a soft case or while carrying the rifle on a sling? The complaint I have with the Argos scope I have is that the turrets turn to easy.

    Rifle Scopes Athlon Scopes

    I just received a Argos BTR 6-24. I really like the scope. I would say the glass is comparable to a Sightron S-Tac 4-20 that I have, Which is really good. One thing I don't like is how easy the turrets turn. Has anyone found a way to make them stiffer?

    Gas Gun in PRS

    Well maybe I should just build this rifle in 308 and build a bolt action 6mm later. Do you think that gas guns will gain popularity and eventually take over bolt actions.

    Help with Barrel Selection

    Thanks for the advise guys. I am not sure what I will do yet. The biggest priority for me is to have fun! I stopped having fun shooting f-class and that is why I want to switch. I don't think I will get to serious shooting PRS matches the first few years. I am only planning on shooting one...

    Help with Barrel Selection

    Hi, I have not posted here much but have reading treads here for several years. I am in the process of figuring out a build. I am wondering what opinions some of you have on barrels.
