    Michigan cops scan cell phone during traffic stops

    Re: Michigan cops scan cell phone during traffic stops LEO's have been scanning cell phones for years with 800 MHz scanners purchased at radio shack. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy when talking on a cell phone. For a LEO to pick up a cell phone and look through it there needs...

    Gunsmithing How much is a barrel Swap?

    I currently have a SPS tac in .223. When I shoot this barrel out I would like to replace it with a 1-7 or 1-8 to shoot the 80 to 90 grain bullets. What am I looking at cost wise to get a new barrel installed on my rifle. What other cost go with buying a new barrel. Here is my brake down -$350...

    90gr .223

    Re: 90gr .223 I have a sps Tac in .223. When I shoot out this barrel I was going to rebarrel it in a faster twist. What barrels are you choosing for this, and what twist? Why are the 80's better than the 90 grainers?

    Suppressors Glock Malfunction

    Re: Glock Malfunction Thats odd. With my experience shooting USPSA I have not seen this, and we put major quantities of rounds down range. 15K rounds is just a season of shooting. Everything mechanical can fail.

    XLR Chassis Stock

    Re: XLR Chassis Stock How does the finish hold up. I have heard the water transfer stuff does not hold up like Cerakote. I heard that from a Cerakote applicator so it was a little biased.

    damn i suck!

    Re: damn i suck! I couldn't keep from noticing, in your pic it looks like you mounted the scope with the sticker still on, and in the rings. You might want to get that out of there for future issues. I may just be seeing things also. Dry fire makes you much better shooter. I am by no...

    I was sent a PST SFP Instead of the FFP

    Re: I was sent a PST SFP Instead of the FFP Well I took the refund, Why you may ask. I am a college student and $150 is nice to have back when I am happy about the product. FFP is better, but there are no tactical matches any where in my area. I shoot steel at known distances. I also owe...

    Re: Modified Bell and Carlson A5 It is textured rattle can. You will need to leave it overnight to set. It is not that hard, but when you put 6-10 coats of paint on top it hardens up.

What size groups should I be trying to achieve at 200 yards. They are just over 1 moa with a couple of fliers which are my...

    Soda Can At 250 Yards

    Re: Soda Can At 250 Yards It can be done, and I am no exceptional shot. I would put up a 8" plate with the savage and make hits all day at 300. Could I do it 8 out of 10, no, but maybe somone more consistent than I could.

    Help me with my load data.

    Re: Help me with my load data. I seated them long to reduce the jump to the lands as instructed in the threads on reloading for bolt rifles. If I loaded long shouldn't that decrease pressure, allowing for more case volume? Any help is appreciated

    Yeah i cant decide between 223 or 308 sps tactical

    Re: Yeah i cant decide between 223 or 308 sps tactical You can get the equipment to load .223 for $150-200. Equipment for loading rifle rounds is not that expensive, it's when you get into a progressive. A lee single stage kit is like $90 and get a nice digital scale and calipers and you...
