    $1 per bullet and a free set of scope rings

    Re: $1 per bullet and a free set of scope rings No, and I don't think many others would either. Just look at the current market share; not everyone shops bullets by BC- they're looking at things like cost and how finicky a bullet can be. In my experience, as BC goes up so does how picky the...

    Re: Any muscle car guys in the Sacramento, CA area???? Agreed, 475HP with a big block Mopar should be a simple ordeal. I've got a 461ci Pontiac that makes 512 on 91 octane, and that's with iron heads.

    Blaser Tac2 .338 Lapua Mag loads?

    Re: Blaser Tac2 .338 Lapua Mag loads? I also had a friend who had a Tac 2 in 338, and like Jig Stick's experience he could never get the thing to group well (1-2MOA consistently). He shoots other 338's fine and the scope was swapped out to check that it was not the problem. He was not...

    Oil under recoil lug, was this the proublem?

    Re: Oil under recoil lug, was this the proublem? I don't think it was the oil. However, the fact the gun shot better after being cleaned might indicate that it needs even more cleaning to get back to it's original state.

    Rifle Scopes Bit the bullet and bought an S&B 5-25x MOA/MOA P4f

    Re: Bit the bullet and bought an S&B 5-25x MOA/MOA P4f I must be the only person who tried an S&B and didn't see an improvement in glass from my NF. Used a resolution chart and both scopes at 20X to compare. I've got 20/20 vision (checked less than a year ago) and could read the same lines...

    Re: sellier and bellot 338 lapua brass quality? I load S&B 357 (a lot of it) and it's held up great. Have not noticed tight primer pockets; no different that W-W, Remington, or Starlin that I load in 357.

    This guys fundamentals suck

    Re: This guys fundamentals suck Looks like a retard with his commando attire. This is the type of guy that causes the general public to assume everyone who's into firearms is a cross bred, cousin counting redneck.
