    Idatabook went live last night

    Re: Idatabook went live last night Hate to add to the pile on, I don't understand why the orientation is disabled. Reading various things on my iPhone, I can't really blow them up wide enough to read comfortably, to rotate the screen would give me more 'area' to work with. So, let's try it...

    I admit, I have a new addiction. Thanks guys....

    Re: I admit, I have a new addiction. Thanks guys.... It's your fault! That's why I've got 2 rifles in-bound, 1 being made and this afternoon I just bought another one. Finally, someone I can blame. Enjoy the 30 06, sounds like a great deal.

    Rifle Scopes TRG-42 300WM

    Re: TRG-42 300WM Good point, I do think it would be a good swap. The VTR has a different glass on it, the IBA is the 'big' boy. Just curious if any other ideas or points could be raised on the Sako. Trying to go really out, would the F1 be sufficient? I guess that's my question.

    Rifle Scopes TRG-42 300WM

    Seriously considering buying one of those, what do you all recommend for glass? Before the typical questions pop up, I'm looking at something that's great at 'plinking' at 1K yds and dropping game below that. Have a NF F1 on a IBA at home, would that be a good 'swap' to the TRG? (Hoping so.)

    Hunting & Fishing Hog Huntin Question

    Re: Hog Huntin Question Okay, I'm confident with my abilities with the 223, but something a bit stronger makes sense. What do you all recommend? My current setup is an Armalite M-15A4CB 223 quad rail. Getting an upper in 6.8, would it make sense to keep in the Armalite 'group' or...

    Hunting & Fishing Hog Huntin Question

    Re: Hog Huntin Question Here's yet another question about the 223. Reading an account about snipers in Iraq, often times they use their M4 when the ranges are tight, the urban environment. When they use the standard 55gr. FMJ, it doesn't work well. One of the boys got his hands on some...

    Hunting & Fishing Hog Huntin Question

    Re: Hog Huntin Question I think you're right, that's why I'm thinking about a 308 upper, much to the ire of my Marine Corps buddy. Anybody any recommendations? (Twist is important, I'd like 175's or higher?) Still keep me 223 though, the yotes in the oparea will make nice throw rugs...

    Re: Hog Huntin Question The puppy does pretty close to 1/4" at 100. A little over that at 200 and an inch or less at 300. This is with a couple of Marines working it, your mileage may vary, mine sure does...

    Rifle Data Logs

    Re: Rifle Data Logs I'm going to check out the Oregon Shooter site, just for data ideas and I also contacted Impact Data books. Bad idea. The guy I talked to is a ex-Marine scout sniper, so I got sucked into a discussion on the M40, information about it, so on and so forth. So, of course...

    Re: Rifle Data Logs As soon as he's done. He's still glassing the action to the stock, we've got a way to go. Wouldn't believe how anxious I am. Sheesh.
