    Is anyone else worried?

    Wow! Looks like I sparked a powder keg with this little thread about people putting effort into improving their shooting. HRF

    Is anyone else worried?

    I agree. This phenomenon is not solely manifested in the young. There are certainly people old enough to know better who believe that if they simply adorn their rifle with the correct light-up gizmo, it will instantaneously mitigate their lack of training and allow them to shoot just like...

    Is anyone else worried?

    As I peruse the various forums, I'm a little dismayed by the banter of the youngsters. It appears that many of them are looking for the "majic bean" combination of optic, rifle, and cartridge that will insure precise hits at extended ranges with little or no effort on their part. As I...

    Crazy video

    I suppose a video of me shoveling an 84 year old lady's car out of the snow yesterday would have been pretty boring. HRF

    Why Would Anyone Want to Shoot a Vintage Sniper Rifle?

    One of the things I like about the 2.5X scope on my 03A4 is the fact that it DOESN'T magnify any vibration or movement of the scope. I find that helps me concentrate on my sight picture without the distraction of the "jiggle effect". HRF

    Question on reproduction 03A4

    Take a look at James River Armory too. I have one of their rifles and it is a good shooter! HRF

    Remington 700 fired while bolt closing and on safe

    I'm right there with you, Dick. After reading all of the OP's posts on the other sight, I'm having a very hard time understanding how this could have happened. If the firing pin assembly somehow slipped off the sear when the bolt was only 25% of the way through its downward (locking) rotation...

    The best you've ever done

    Thanks for the tip o' the hat Sandwarrior. Mine is easy to remember. The Vintage Sniper Rifle match at last year's East Coast Championships. My 03A4 and I were good for a score of 195 5X. Only 4 shots out of 20 made it out of the 10 ring. (1-9 at 300 yards, 2-9's and an 8 at 600 yards). It's the...

    Ultimate Super Sniper!

    Years ago I went to a firearms instructors course with a pistol that was not in vogue at the time. During the classroom portion of the course, I took quite a bit of ribbing from the other attendees who were armed with far more stylish weapons. Their comments regarding my pistol ran the gamut of...

    Rifle Scopes Turret Question- Mark 4 LR/T 4.5-14x40mm

    I've used the M1 .25 MOA turrets for years and I like them, but I keep finding myself lusting after the FDE Mark 4 with M2 (.5 MOA BDC) turrets. Something about getting there with half the number of clicks sounds good to me! My service rifle and my Vintage Sniper rifle both have .5 MOA...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns M&P. .22 pistol

    It's a good idea to grab any mag you can find. It took me nearly a year to find a second one. That's one thing I mentioned in the second video above: I wish S&W would have included a second mag with the pistol. HRF
