    Rifle Scopes Bushnell LRTSi - Throwhammer

    Is that removable? Looks like it can come off. I like the reticle more in that more than the LRHS, But the throw-lever is bothering me for possible hunting use. Thanks

    PIG0311-G Field Tripod

    That was my thought as well. Ordered a couple weeks ago and got the notice today that it's shipping out. Probably end up with the one they recommend/show on their site. Kind of like the Manfrotto pistol grip head, but I don't know any better and not sure of compatibility.

    Rifle Scopes Optics Survey

    I took a ride for the cause. Though I may have impulse chose a scope on accident. I wondered about the DOB and Age Group too?

    Who likes their CZ455 VPT

    I like mine. Im satisfied with cci sv, but for a a few cents more Eley Club works a little better (pic @ 50yds). The Tenex was stupid good the one time i tried it.

    Hunting & Fishing Tried my hand at a European Mount

    I did one a couple years ago with a kit from Cabela's like this one. http://www.cabelas.com/product/The-T...skull%2Bbleach It was a STINKY deal and took the good part of a day. Boiling the water, picking away at it, boiling some more, picking some more, repeat.... Very tedious. And smelly. Then...

    Servo, RLR is having a shoot on the 21st. Going to be like the BWRS match the day before but for the guys who couldn't get in. So not really a match, but should be fun. Send Aaron an email or call him to see about getting signed up for that.

    Is anyone here doing the Rush Lake Range match on the 15th? I'm considering it as I'll be real close to there Easter Weekend. And the wife is even okay with it! Sounds like the newbies, such as myself, are partnered with someone that has competed in matches like this before. SO, I'd like to try...

    I tried the link posted by TROYMN and see there is something going on in a couple weeks at Rush Lake. I've sent Aaron an email but wondered if anyone here has any info on it.

    sizing new brass

    When you guys say you "run them over an expander mandrel" is that like going 2/3 into a FL Die? I am imagining enough stroke that the case mouth goes up into the die and through the expander ball/button, but not all the way up into the die? Why not just use a neck die then? Or is it completely...

    Neck Sizing. It's for real

    First off, I don't consider myself an experienced reloader or a great shot by any means. I've only FL sized since I started hand-loading 10 years or so ago (mainly because it was for an AR and pistols). So I finally bought a neck sizing die for my Rem5R to see what all the hub-bub was about. If...

    I'll be the Village idiot... What is "LPV"? (at least in the above posts)

    Rifle Scopes Sunshade vs No Sunshade

    Like you said. The fact that they can help protect the glass from incidents is enough for me to use them. First time shooting with a group in a field prone, I was laying next to a .300RUM with a brake. I remember the concussion more but I'd think there was dirt flying around. And at my home...

    Were you are now what would you tell yourself as a beginner?

    Find other, better/more experienced, shooters to shoot with. Save money and get to a training class. Sooner than later.

    Maggie’s Hearing Protection Act of 2017

    Pretty much my thoughts. Why not charge the tax when you get it, not 7 months before? I pay my gas tax when I get gas. I pay income taxes when I get paid (though that may be foolish). You don't get a tax deduction for last year when your child is born this spring. I guess I don't understand...

    Hand prime?

    I use the RCBS hand tool also. When I was just loading for the AR I would always get a bunch of rounds where the primer was not flush. It sat above the case ahead slightly. Figured I didn't get rid of the crimp enough or did something incorrectly. Always thought I'd get a slam fire or have...

    Rifle Scopes Found Vortex Razor 5-20 on sale, is that gonna be the best scope out there for that price?

    Looking at these deals too as I'll be needing glass soon. I have a seemingly dumb question... But these are 36 mrad of total travel; I assume 18 up and 18 down? So some on the EuroOptic sight have a 5 & 10 mrad turrets... Does this mean that one turns 3+ times total and the other is just under...
