    AIRCRAFT PHOTOGRAPHY: anyone else want to participate?

    With no offense meant at all to all my Japanese friends, I've attached what I thought was the bad ass'est fighter airplane poster of the era. I've never seen it before. And in case any of you younger guys aren't familiar with the reference, "Good to the last JAP", Maxwell House Coffee's slogan...

    Sound deadening shooting box?

    I stacked 6 used tires (15" wheel diameter stuffed with sound insulation) side-by-side and capped both ends with 1/2" plywood with a 4" hole shaped like an upside-down skeleton keyhole for shooting .308 with a scope. It was quiet enough that my wife 75 yards away in the house never could tell if...

    Teach me about 22LR fouling? Littlepod is gonna LOL at this follow-up report on my "search for a scope"...

    Mine doesn't seem to be a single 'first shot flier' problem. When I changed from SK Long Range Match to Wolf Match Extra, it took 10 rounds of W-ME to "reset" the bore (10-shots = 1.8", with the last 3 shots in the group less than about .5"); 20 more W-ME shots later (four 5-shot groups <...

    If you just wanna skip directly to the question, start below the line of plus signs. for "background", just continue here: Back in November I posted a thread asking for advice for a friend--I needed a quick education on scopes for a 10/22, and what semi-auto platforms (10/22s) were the best...

    Thank you, Gents. I don't think I'll have any trouble at all selling my "stock". I just didn't know where to post it as a private non-commercial seller who doesn't have a license to ship.

    What sites do ya'll suggest I post on for local sale if no Craigslist/eBay/Gunbroker allowed?

    I think the subject line is pretty accurate. I wanna sell some ammunition locally--face to face only, but I don't know where I can post a "for sale" ad. Do ya'll have any ideas? Craigslist and eBay forbid ammo sales, and Gunbroker mostly requires shipping, and I'm just a private party trying to...

    Are the old Volquartsen LLV barrels threaded for a suppressor?

    I tried to call, but the phone system is down. They emailed me that it should be "replaced next week". In the meantime, they told me that it was "believed" to be a 1/2x20 thread and that the LLV was built in the 2000s before suppressors were popular. They didn't give me a flat 'no', which would...

    Are the old Volquartsen LLV barrels threaded for a suppressor?

    Thanks, Scotty. None of the four holes are threaded. The only threads I can see are where the inside of the ring mates to the barrel. I wonder if the ring is meant to be removed "casually" because I rigged a tool to take it off but it's on VERY tight. I soaked it overnight with WD40 but it took...

    Are the old Volquartsen LLV barrels threaded for a suppressor?

    I bought a Ruger Mk II that has an old Volquartsen LLV barrel installed. Here's a picture of the LLV: The muzzle looks like this: I have several questions: 1) Is the ring with the 4 holes a thread protector that's meant to allow a suppressor to be mounted? 2) Does anyone know where I can...

    Your advice is needed, please... It's been 25 years since I shopped for a scope...

    Welllll, shit. I have this Nightforce 5.5-22x56 on ARMS QD rings sittin' spare in the safe. All this advice forced me into a KIDD Classic I found on the 'net. Damn. No good deed goes unpunished. :)

    Thanks very much for all your advice! I sent him a link to this thread; he's been convinced by the posts here to go EP5, so at least we got him going in the right direction with the scope choice. FuhQ, thanks very much for the sales tip; he decided from that site and all ya'lls advice (two...

    SFP and MOA resolution w/ a Nightforce 5.5-22x56 NP-R2

    It's been years since I've shot my rifles. I can't remember how to use the NP-R2 reticle (SFP). I know that the vertical delineations are 2 MOA and only valid at 22x. I think I remember that if I reduce magnification to 11x, those values double to 4 MOA. Are they 8 MOA at 5.5x ? Thank you very...
