    History of 338 Win Mag

    300 WIn Mag was designed as a hunting rifle but it certainly has had success as a sniper rifle. If the 300 did it, why didn't the 338?

    History of 338 Win Mag

    I know that among 338s, the 338 Lapua magnum is where it's at as far as long range is concerned. My question is, did the 338 Win mag ever fill the same role, either as a combat weapon or as a long range round?

    Best Way to Bore Sight Before Going to the Range?

    I use the exact method described by Pierce-Shapes, et.al.. I took my 260 to the 100yd range on Thursday, boresighted as he described and I am not exaggerating or lying when I say I hit the dot (I don't use typical targets. I make my own and its typically less than a 1/2" in size) on the first...

    Rifle Scopes 2018 - Year of the Ultra Shorts

    Americans, by nature, demand bigger. Bigger cars. Bigger guns. Bigger barrels. Bigger breasts. Much bigger breasts. Qualifiying that, much bigger breasts on our women. And yes, bigger scopes.

    Internal dimensions of .260 Lapua case vs. .260 Remington

    I have new Lapua brass that I'm going to use to try to improve my groups. Although, they're pretty good to begin with. Having said that, I've always used Remington cases. My typical load for the Rem cases was 42.0g I4350. H4350 shoots just as well. But as I was going to start weighing out...

    Going to Yellowstone in 2019 - where's the best place to stay?

    NilesCoyote - been to Glacier twice. Man, what a place. Beauty on a whole other scale. The first time you walk out on the shore of Lake McDonald you get the sense there is a God. When I die, I hope it's somewhere in Glacier. Waveslayer, will do. Thanks very much.

    Anybody road bike?

    I ride a Felt Z4 CF bike with SRAM components. Got in about 1,500 miles this year. Best year I ever did I think was 2500 miles. Due to work or one thing or another, I can only get in ~ 20 miles a ride. It's a little hilly here in western PA so I can tailor my ride to how much I want to suffer.

    Going to Yellowstone in 2019 - where's the best place to stay?

    We're planning a trip to Yellowstone next year and the wife absolutely positively needs a private bathroom and all the other mod cons. Can anyone provide real world input? I said I was going to post this question on the hide because you guys know something about everything. I hope this...

    I've heard of bullet jump but this is a leap of faith

    Just got a case of Prime 260 ammo and the first thing I did was measure case head to ogive of the loaded round. The measurements for 5 randomly selected cartridges were 2.131; 2.131; 2.136; 2.136 and 2.132. Since I just got a new CF barrel put on, I've been taking measurements to determine...

    Snipers Hide Coffee?

    They're running a real risk of being "confusingly similar" - I think that's the language I used to read when trademark examiners didn't like something a client had proposed for a trademark. I mean I honestly thought they had some deal with Frank .

    You're 100% correct. Animal dies because of man's ignorance of nature.

    Great job you stupid fuckers

    Oh I don't know if I'm being a smart ass or a dumb ass. Actually, I was only trying to be a funny ass. But I do know I have a rather large moose I shot in Alaska hanging in the basement. People ARE stupid.

    Steel animal targets

    Velvetant thanks for posting this. In order to groundhog hunt I have to drive 136 miles roundtrip - and even then it's problematic as to whether I see anything. It's a drag to drive all those miles and then not even get a shot off. It had occurred to me that I was going to have to come up...
