    Remington Rifle Recall Notice

    Thanks for posting Tucker. My 0.02, forget Remington exists and get a Timney or whatever floats your boat. If you buy a Remmy, immediately throw the trigger away. The recalls and quality control issues they have had for several years running is outrageous. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Aw mag holders

    I have been running a pair of TAB Gear pouches for about 3 years. Picked up an Armageddon pouch a few months ago and like everything else they make it is great.

    6.5 cm for a 1000

    I like at least 24" for a 6.5CM. My match rifle is 24" and with Winchester 140s 1,000 is easy. Start spec'ing out your new 6.5 and we'll give you some input.

    223Remington Bolt Action... Which Magazines?

    I use MDT, AI, and Accurate mags. The AI plastic mags are sloppy but work. MDTs are more consistent in dimension than AI and are at a great price point but, the specs are slightly different from AI so I had to dremel a very small amount off of the MDTs to fit a rifle that was made for the AIs. I...

    Suppressors 30 cal suppressor recommendations

    My TBAC Ultra 7 suppresses a 20" 308 about the same as my 9.5" AAC Cyclone (though I don't have a meter). The TBAC is shorter and much lighter and has the benefit of mounting to a brake that happens to lock up as tight as a direct thread. Sliding it onto the brake is easier than screwing on a...

    Very high technology of warfare

    Mr Willis, you really got me thinking on this one. In the sixth grade I was going to kick some kids ass because he stole the scissors from my supply box and wouldn't give them back. I chased him down the street but before I could catch him he picked up a cat and threw it at me. No shit. And...

    Move from point to point questions?

    Mr Walt Willis, I am not very good with numbers so I can't keep up with the ten times this plus/minus ten times that. All I know is that if I'm minus ten Lagunitas IPAs then I sure as hell need to get to the store and get plus 10 more. And I am sure as shit not gonna be stealthy about it. I am a...

    Rifle Scopes best bang for the buck

    Mr Walt Willis, while the Falcon Menace is a technological wonder I find its objective size lacking for the kind of low-light long-range snipery stuff you may engage in. The fact it does not come with lens covers doesn't justify the price. IMHO, it is worth a few minutes to take a look at the...

    Very high technology of warfare

    This is a really good question. There is one weapon system that has become ever more sinister beginning with the dawn of time. I have found myself helpless against it. With total sensory deprivation even the last standing Spartan would be powerless while in view its magnetic powers. It has...

    Browning Hell's Canyon Speed

    The Hell's Canyon barrel is 22" and I like my 6.5 CMs to have at least a 24"er. And this would be especially true if hunting Elk with it, which I don't. As others have said you won't find the aftermarket support is as broad as for other platforms. A few others to look at in this price range are...

    Optimal barrel contour for a do all rifle

    Rem Varmint. For rifles that I am going to carry a long way #4 is the minimum, or a fluted #5.

    K31 or Win.M70 Ultimate Shadow .308

    Apples and oranges. Two completely different rifles. Aside from having a vast array of options in modifying the Mod 70 (stocks and every component) and finding a smith to work on it you will find reloading a 308 far easier and more flexible than for 7.5x55. Going with factory ammo in the near...

    Sig 2000 should I be scarred

    Sorry to hear about your unit going south on you. Bought mine in Dec 2015 and it has performed great ever since. It ranges to 2,000 better than I need it to. Please post up what happens with Sig.

    Boot choice opinions

    Lowa for me. You are going to have to go try some boots on your own feet to decide. They are all built a little bit differently (volume, last construction...). Don't buy without walking around the store with them first.
