    Powder choices for 77grain smk or 75hornady.

    Re: Powder choices for 77grain smk or 75hornady. Varget is my choice of powder behind 77 SMK's. It performs well out of my 18" WOA SPR, & I use it in several other loads as well. I like to consolidate powders of choice whenever possible, it just makes things a little easier for me I suppose...

    308 Shorter Barrel?

    Re: 308 Shorter Barrel? I went the 20" route mainly because the rifle will host a suppressor eventually, and I didn't want to end up having a 34-35" barrel. Don't know about factory loadings, but my hand-loads (175gr SMK over 45gr of Varget) produce a MV of just over 2600 fps, and remain...

    How to hang steel plates?

    Re: How to hang steel plates? My steel plate is suspended by plain old car seat-belt material. I can get it from our local junkyard for free, so the price is perfect. Put holes for the bolts to go through it by heating up a 1/2" bolt and burned them in. I've yet to shoot the belts, but I'd...

    Married 4 years, work 12 hours a day in a chair.

    Re: Married 4 years, work 12 hours a day in a chair. Keeping track of your food intake can be difficult, but is key if you plan on losing fat & retaining muscle. There are a few places on the web that can help you record and monitor intake, but the easiest/best way I've found so far is an app...

    Speed Up Your Chargemaster 1500

    Re: Speed Up Your Chargemaster 1500 I did the above, plus the McDonald's straw on the inside of the dispenser to prevent over-throws. Works like a dream now.

    It's Here!

    Re: New Rifle! Great starter platform, congratulations! I have the 20" SPS in a B&C, and as long as I do my part, it shoots less than 1/2 MOA at 100 yards easily with hand loads. I've had it for a couple years now & just finished removing the Falcon Menace 4-14 it had been wearing &...

    20" Barrel ??

    Re: 20" Barrel ?? I'm sure someone around here knows better than me, but if I recall correctly, 20" barreled .308's are the direction the USMC is headed.

    Took the new 700 out today

    Re: Took the new 700 out today I have the same gun, but mine didn't come with a scope. With that optic I'd recommend just tightening up those torx bolts and calling it good. No need to take it to a gunsmith IMO.

    Re: did you work out today? Did upper body workout today. Got some new equipment in our gym, and enjoyed the 'new' stuff to do. Down 30lbs in 3 months. Feeling a helluva lot better, and will hopefully hit my goal weight this summer of 185 (currently at 205lbs).

    Simple diet

    Re: Simple diet one of my favorite simple meals is - 7 eggs (5 whites/2 whole) scrambled 3 links of turkey sausage ground up & mixed in 2 tablespoons of fresh garden salsa for a topping 330 calories, 40g protein, 6g fat, & 6 carbs. I'll add more whites occasionally to up the protein levels.

    Rifle Scopes Reticle change on a Nightforce?

    Re: Reticle change on a Nightforce? Yeah, for the price of a change and the wait, I'll most definitely give it a fair shake. Hopefully I'll like it, it's just that I've wanted a NF for a long time & just want to make sure I'm satisfied after finally throwing down the cash for one.

    Rifle Scopes Reticle change on a Nightforce?

    Re: Reticle change on a Nightforce? Thanks for the replies. I wouldn't have bought it since it's not the exact reticle I'm looking for, but I've been trying to buy one from the 'optics for sale' adds here, but keep coming up short. There's been some great deals here, but lady luck hasn't...
