    Adjustable height buttplate or recoil pad?

    Thanks for the help. I think I’m gonna go this route since I don’t need any LOP adjustment. https://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/stock-parts/butt-plate-parts/butt-plates/rifle-butt-plate-adjuster-prod6803.aspx Should make short work filing this down too since it’s aluminum.

    Adjustable height buttplate or recoil pad?

    Thank you, in my own search I have already seen all of those. I think the first one is an add on for GRS stocks only. After reading reviews on the Graco one on midway looks like guys have used for rifles. My only reservation is grinding down the plates. It may be more than I’m prepared to...

    Adjustable height buttplate or recoil pad?

    I have a HS Precision stock on my rifle and I am looking for some way to raise up the recoil pad/buttplate. Wondering if anyone has seen or used some universal type of recoil pad that has height adjustability. I am looking to add about .5 - 1.0" of height so I can get better contact with my...

    Trump stops pay raises.

    Ah yes the CBO, you're talking about the office tasked to make government spending look good right? Anyways if you look at the citations in the paper, most of the statistical data comes from the government's own numbers. Is your suggestion govt. employees are overeducated as well? And as a...

    Trump stops pay raises.

    Most important part of the paper IMO: "In the past, there was a view that it was a privilege for citizens to serve the public in a federal agency, and that federal pay should be fairly modest. Unfortunately, that sort of thinking has gone out the window as the federal compensation advantage has...

    Trump stops pay raises.

    Average federal govt compensation for 2016 was over $127k per employee. They are overpaid. I think they'll be just fine for a year with no raise. That does include pensions and other benefits, but for most of us private sector workers, that comes out of our normal wages anyways...

    Muzzle Velocity

    I would say a difference of 5 FPS while having a SD of over 5 bettween the two tests is a statistically insignificant difference. You need to run more tests under same environmentals with your brake AND can to get a better idea of what’s going on.

    Why do people seem down on Savage rifles?

    I will say, the bighorn extractors appear to be much more refined and contoured to the shape of the case head, perhaps why there aren't any known reliability issues with them. More complex machining no doubt. Having said that, and as I mentioned earlier: my savage never has had a failure to...

    9yo Suicide Over Homophobic Bullying

    As a parent, and someone who grew up taking a lot of beatings (not spanking), I find it hard to ever justify striking a child. I don't judge in most cases and appreciate parents who try to teach and discipline their children. I just see it as the parent loosing control of their own emotions...
