    Shooting bag on tripod instead of ball or leveling head

    Shooting on my own time there’s no difference. I really need to compare under the clock.

    Shooting bag on tripod instead of ball or leveling head

    I’ve been experimenting with a game changer on a small Tac-table instead of clamping the rifle directly into the tripod. It’s a bit faster to get the first shot off and the recoil impulse is smoother and more predictable because you don’t have the resistance of the legs/feet. On the other hand...

    Gunsmithing Removing metal shim?

    That’s a standard 1/2” crush washer. When they get crushed more than half a turn or so they can be difficult to remove. I’ve used a Dremel and cutting wheel, but usually you can grab them with vise grips and thread them off

    Rifle Scopes Resetting parallax range for rimfire use question

    This scope has the parallax adjustment on the side of the tube on the adjustment turret boss. The problem is that it won’t adjust down to 25 yards, and I’d like to move the whole adjustment range down by screwing the objective lens out

    Rifle Scopes Resetting parallax range for rimfire use question

    Thanks I will give it a go this weekend. The threads on the objective lens carrier look to be 30-40 tpi, are you saying it will require less than a turn?

    Rifle Scopes Resetting parallax range for rimfire use question

    I have a Bushnell DMR2 3.5-21x50 I am using on a CZ455 rifle for NRL22 type matches. The side parallax adjustment goes down to 50 yards and with this particular scope it is closer to 60-65 yards at that setting. There is a fair bit of information about turning the objective lens carrier in/out...

    Short Action Mark 4 2 Piece Bases on a Long Action Win 70

    I’ve never used two piece bases with cant, but I’d assume the individual bases are sloped and not just different heights, in which case they will be parallel but not in line.

    Gunsmithing Winchester M70 Picatinny Base Question

    The two changes were 1984 when they made a short action (previously 243/308 were LA), and then 2006 when they opened the receiver for the WSM’s and carried that to the FNH marked guns. The post 2006 size was adopted across the board and all FN made short actions. your 1990 308 should take the...

    Gunsmithing Winchester Action AICS Mags

    The way I did it was to install the DBM, then scribe the bottom of the receiver through the magwell. This gives you a guide to mill. Depth of the cut was a bit of trial and error, if you go too deep, the magazine will interfere with the bolt if you push up on it. I stuck a bore guide in the...

    What trigger Cadex or Triggertech?

    I have a Cadex 2-stage on a hunting rifle. It’s a reliable trigger, and a true 2-stage in that the first stage takes up large sear contact and returns to full contact if you release it without firing. it will only go down to around 8-10 oz first stage and 12-16 ounces second stage which is a...

    Kestrel: Looking for suggestions

    I suggest buying one of the $399 Kestrel 5700 Sportsman with Link from Cameralandny It will do 95% what an Elite will do, and if you decide later on, for $170 you can do a software upgrade to an Elite. The Link is a must have, you can input firearm data through your smartphone app, do...

    Ultimatum Deadline - why aren't more people building on this?

    The Ruger scout mags are different than the regular Accurate 223 magazines. Can you post a pic of the feed lips from the side?

    I have a deadline in 223 the magazine you need is this one https://www.tombstonetactical.com/catalog/ruger/90458-gunsite-scout-rifle-10rd-magazine-5.56mm-nato-.223-remington/ the feed lips are extended forward and this corrects the feeding issues.

    What's -40* feel like?

    The Russian geologists all had Siberian experience where most (all?) of their diamonds are mined and were completely in their element. They were shocked at the resources we had on hand, I guess in Siberia you don’t have an A-Star at your disposal and a Hercules dropping off food and fuel when...
