    .338 lapua magnum rifle

    There are currently two TRG 42s for sale in the PX and they are both .338LMs. Both are well within your limits. There is a thread in this forum on the TRGs. They have great ergos., a great trigger and are built to military standards. The two are only the first ones that popped up. Go to the...

    Advice on Gunbroker rifle purchase gone bad

    Your kinda' between a rock and a hard place. Any FFL that throws away a shipping box is not worth doing business with. Call Terry Cross and find out if it is actually a KMW build. If it is, ask him if he will inspect the rifle and give you any recommendations. He is the guy to fit a...

    Sako TRG-22 reality check

    Westford86, congrats. you made a great buy. A couple of quick recommendations for when you get out to shoot your TRG. The triggers on the TRGs are legendary. You may find that the pull when you hit the wall (second stage) seems heavier than you would expect. This is particularly true when...

    Sako TRG-22 reality check

    I blew your pic. up to as big as I could (300%) and the gun looks virtually new to me. I see no wear on the joint for the bi-pod legs. I see no wear on the bolt and I see no crud on the brake. I appears there are a couple of bright spots on the rail so the previous owner might have mounted a...

    Caution if You Vote Absentee

    The UN and various NGOs monitor elections internationally particularly as regards the likelihood of fraud. The process now in place would have them screaming "Train Wreck". When constructing the conditions to create regime change is for the public to lose faith in their electoral process. The...

    Caution if You Vote Absentee

    Make sure your signature hasn't changed. I started voting absentee about forty years ago. After signing stacks of checks for years I realized my signature had morphed. I went to the co. elections office and had them pull the old signature card. Sure enough, there was no resemblance. It...

    Rifle Scopes Review of the Eotech Vudu 5-25, Now With Photos

    31+ mils. 40 moa should work. If everything works you should be three-5 mils from burying the erector. I used Burris XTR Signature 1.5" rings and put in 25 MOA inserts but because the rings are so close together I ended up with about 35MOA and 25 up/7 down with a 100yd zero. If you haven't...

    6X5 Thread V5.0 *new 1/1/21*

    Noooooo!!! Not bof'em. Its good to see them back. I've already put my ego in the drawer in preparation for what's going to follow. Now that you've tried the Bravo how would you equate it to the TRG in terms of the firing hand feel? Also the Timney compared to the TRG trigger. If you've...

    Sako TRG-42 TRG42 Field Strip Question

    It is worth checking the action screws with some regularity. TRGs have a bit of a reputation for cracking the plastic behind the rear tang. Many have claimed that it is due loose action screws. IDK but it's an easy check.

    .338 Lapua newbie groups

    That's going to come in at about 12 and half to 13# and yes that's light. My TRG with factory brake, factory bipod, rings, factory rail and an empty magazine weighs about 15#10oz.s. That's a significant difference when your talking about felt recoil. There are a number of ways to mitigate...

    .338 Lapua newbie groups

    What size target at 800yds. Ring the steel fairly consistently means what? How many hits in ten rounds? I looked at your rifle on Europtic and it gave the weight as eight pounds one ounce bare. Is that correct?

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Puma Solingen Knife restoration?

    I don't see anything that needs to be restored. I'm looking at the tip and looks like it might be rounded. If so that is an easy fix. I wouldn't try to polish out the staining. It's just honest wear and tear. If you try to polish it out you will loose the crisp edges of the blood grooves...

    Rifle Scopes Eotech Vudu 5-25

    I bought a 5-25, with H59, in early 2019. When it came in I mounted it on a mule stock to compare it to other scopes I had that were mounted. First I compared it to a SWFA 5-20x50HD. I have three of these and the Vudu compared favorably in terms of IQ and the various controls were easier to...

    Dave, thank you. I remember reading it originally now that I have revisited the thread. Your nine bull target still amazes me. You won the barrel lottery. $5.00 Eley Contact and you won the ammo lottery. You had already won the gunsmith lottery. You personally won the shooter lottery...

    H-S Precision stock vs KRG Bravo

    TommyD, first of all welcome to the SH. There is more knowledge here regarding precision rifles and a greater willingness to share that knowledge than any site on the internet. I think that some here have gotten off on the wrong foot in trying to help you reach your goals. I believe that I...
