    Fixing strelok dope

    I've been using strelok for years and usually it's fairly spot on with multiple rifles. Today the data for my rifle was 3" high at 300, and off enough to cause a miss at 500. The 500 yard shots were at a treeline so I was not able to spot the impacts. While it could have been me, the 100 zero...

    Mini Mauser?

    I am a huge fan of mini-action rifles. I run a howa, but sometimes wish that I also added a cz to the stable, they look so well made and you never hear complaints about them. I may snag a cz in 7.62x39 some day for my kids.

    Help preparing for first PRS event (Sheepdog)

    I like the notepad idea. My wife and I often shoot an idpa match and on the way home ask each other.. "so what was stage 4 again?" We are thinking of taking notes to record areas we struggled with, enjoyed, etc. Going back to sheepdog, I have one last question. How is the brass pick up? Are...

    Howa mini HB profile

    So apparently preferred barrels has a very good breakdown of their barrel contours and what sets them apart from each other. If I had spent more time clicking around their site in the first place I would have answered my own questions. =P

    Howa mini HB profile

    I'm trying to do both actually. My wife's howa has the lightweight sporter barrel, and it can't maintain accuracy through a whole day without cleaning. We are also replacing her stock with a boyds, because she is so short and they have best was to snag a 12.5" LOP without paying for a full...

    Howa mini HB profile

    I am just bad a identifying the proper contour. To me a straight taper, sporter, or palma all look the same.

    Howa mini HB profile

    Going to be ordering a howage barrel in 6.5 grendel for my wife's mini to replace the factory pencil barrel. It fouls horribly after 25ish rounds. My question is, what do you think the barrel profile is for the stock howa mini HB? The reason I am trying to get close to it is because we are...

    Help preparing for first PRS event (Sheepdog)

    tl;dr: What do I need to bring to my first match, and what to do on arrival? Its been a long time since I've focused on my rifles. Since the day my wife told me I was going to be a daddy, I lost the bug to collect guns and instead enjoy the ones I have. I started shooting IDPA monthly with my...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Forge 1-8x30 dimensions?

    Awesome, thank you. I want to mount one on a magnum action, and with 2 screw scope rings I have 5.5 inches on the extreme outside of the scope mounts so I should be just able to squeak this scope onto the rifle.

    Why the hate for leupold ?

    I'm a poor, so I ended up with a few MK4s, one 10x, and one 8-25x. I haven't had an issue with them yet so I have been happy so far, but as a poor I don't get to run them as often/hard as the others do. I had a uso st-10 that I really liked, but compared to the mk4 10x it was noticeably darker...

    Reloading Equipment New York swap meet

    Blast, I tried seeing if there was another thread out there but nothing turned up in the search function. Oh well. And for LeadSlinger, I work near the Utica/Rome area (I think I'm there more than home).

    Reloading Equipment New York swap meet

    Might as well get things going for NY. I have 7mm mag brass and some loaded ammo. Maybe 100 pieces of 35 Remington brass. Some 10mm brass, not sure how much. I could count it if someone is interested. Guessing a at least a hundred.

    Tell me what I got, USO Snipers Hide Edition #22

    Since we are talking about the original USO scopes, any chance we could make a list of models offered? I have long since forgotten their model names and I would love to track down a few of them. I really regret switching from my st-10 to the leupold mk 4 that I swapped onto that scope. They...

    Tell me what I got, USO Snipers Hide Edition #22

    I had an original ST10 with AO. It was one of the nicest scopes that I have owned and I really liked the blocky lines of it. I was sad to see their current lineup. I miss the old USO and I wish that I could stumble on a deal for the old ones. (Ok.. not really because I am a cheap ass but I can...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Forge 1-8x30 dimensions?

    Odd question but does anyone know the length of the scope body between the eye and ocular bells? I think I am going to go this route, but I can't find dimensions. Finding a scope with a long enough body for a magnum action is a pain.

    Rifle Scopes Budget 1-x for hunting?

    Looking for a lpvo in the 1-x range to throw on a light 300mag for hunting. Primary concerns are recoil durability, low light clarity, and illuminated. Trying to stay under $500. With my first child a few months away I am trying to finish off a few rifles in the safe. I have Sporter weight...

    The HIDE is under attack!

    I've been seeing it on glocktalk pretty strong since the start of covid. A troll shows up, older members respond to their troll crap, then troll plays the victim, appeals to the mods and gets the older member banned. While I believe this is a conscious effort to remove people from their...

    Rifle Scopes Talos on a 300mag?

    Anyone tried a talos on a heavy recoiling rifle? I see a few old thread asking but everyone has them on low impact rifles. Long story: I have a Sporter 300mag. Used to have a Leupold vx III on it but it got ripped off for the wife's hunting rifle. I tossed a Burris fullfield 2-7 on it but it's...
