    Trigger weight for target shooting

    Re: Trigger weight for target shooting I got a timney on my R700 recently, set to 2 lbs and I absolutely love it. Lighter would be interesting, but I think that 2 lbs is pretty much perfect for me. I by no means think that I know better than very talented/experienced shooters, but 2 lbs was...

    Cheek Riser/Cheek Weld Woes

    Re: Cheek Riser/Cheek Weld Woes One more thing that you should consider before investing much in a pad is the possibility of changing your stock. The one that comes on your rifle is not a very impressive option and you can easily upgrade to one that will not only do a much better job of...

    Cheek Riser/Cheek Weld Woes

    Gunsmithing Torque on Action Screws

    Re: Torque on Action Screws I started with 50 in-lbs on my AICS but amusingly before that I accidentally torqued it to 25-30 FT-lbs when I was using the wrong tool. Led to a huge ordeal, please don't make that mistake. I've heard people having success anywhere from 50-65 in-lbs, but I...

    OK: Well, at least she isn't a teacher ...

    Re: OK: Well, at least she isn't a teacher ... Reminds me of the South Park episode where Kyle's younger brother Ike has an illicit relationship with his attractive teacher. "Nice!"

    My homemade sidecharger

    Re: My homemade sidecharger Damn, you are braver than I. Looks awesome though, be extra careful shooting it until you know how it'll react! Count me jealous.

    Re: Issues after bedding The two screws I just pulled out of my R700's action (stock bottom metal and hogue stock) were 2 different lengths, I can measure them for you in the morning if no one gets back to you with the lengths.

    Re: How to ship to custom builder? If you aren't set on UPS, FedEx has been a tad better for me lately, very prompt shipping.

    Re: Southwest Ammunition wait? Got my ammo today, it looks great. Gave it a thorough looking over and everything is very uniform. I wish I had known they come in 50 rnd boxes though, because only ordering 80 left me with one box partially filled! lol I get to go shoot them this weekend, I...

    Member Link Up I need help in IL

    Re: I need help in IL Well it appears my luck is better than I could have hoped. After a gunsmith and a machine shop both failed to get the screws out, I took the rifle over to the contractor my parents have used for their home for a long time and it looks like he got them right out. Says the...

    Southwest Ammunition wait?

    Re: Southwest Ammunition wait? Mine should be getting to my place today, but I'll have to pick it up later because I won't be home. But to answer the question, they did get it shipped out, just took a little while. Hopefully after I get my .308 repaired/replaced I can start trying it out

    Removing stuck action screws

    Re: Removing stuck action screws After initially messing this up I'm kind of doubtful of myself, is there a special technique for drilling the heads off of this screw? It's an allen head as previously mentioned.

    so you want to shoot 308 to a mile?

    Re: so you want to shoot 308 to a mile? Bill, he's talking about a mile, not just 1k yards. However, the gentleman who posted his lovely shoot up north was shooting 1600yds I believe and still piercing his target. Although if I remember correctly from the article he did have keyholing. I'd...
