    Aero Solis long action…

    I didn’t care too much about the short action release, but I’m tentatively excited about this one. I’m not really interested in PRS shooting but I have been thinking thinking hard about putting together a lightweight 7 PRC rig for elk and western hunts. So this might fit the bill when it...

    Do primers matter like we think…

    I feel like this should have been posted already but I’m not seeing anything…

    Burris Veracity PH

    Looking to put together a dedicated hunting rig and looking hard at this scope… Unfortunately there isn’t much in the way of reviews on it that I can find. Has anyone had hands on experience with it? What are your thoughts on its viability and reliability?

    BRN-180 vs Piston Conversion…

    I have an unfired Colt 6920 sitting in my safe that I’m not doing anything with. I’m considering either getting an Adams Arms piston kit and modifying it or selling it and getting a BRN-180. I kinda lean towards the 180 and I love the recoil design, but hate the charging handle and how open the...

    Ogive and bullet jump measurement

    This is a more generalized question but hopefully someone can assuage my overthinking... I’m not a complete beginner when it comes to reloading as I’ve been doing it for a few years but at the same time being military with deployments mixed in I’m not as experienced as I should be. Anyway, I...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 48 Recommendations...

    So I bought a G48 a couple days ago. This wasn't related to the current panic as I have enough guns and ammo that I don't worry about short term stupidity. I bought the G48 because as the warmer months approach I want something that conceals better than my G19 in shorts and t-shirt weather...

    RCBS MatchMaster Dies?

    So I'm starting to switch my seating dies over to micrometer adjustable competition dies for better consistency... For the most part Forster Ultra does. However, Forster doesn't offer a 7.5 Swiss die and Redding doesn't look like they do either. I’ve noticed that RCBS does make a micrometer...

    Finally!!! ***Range Update***

    A couple years ago I bought a beat up 1942 Longbranch Lee Enfield No4. The stock was shrunk and the barrel turned out to be shot out but I got it cheap so no worries there. I decided that since the barrel and stock couldn't be saved I would salvage the reciever and get it turnbed into a repro...

    1912 Steyr Chilean Mauser...

    Can anyone tell me what the rear sight on the 1912 Steyr Chilean Mauser was graduated for? I understand that in 1913 the Chilean Mauser was loaded with a 139gr bullet, but I've also heard that they were later upgraded to a 162gr bullet. Can anyone tell me which weight would be most correct for...

    Egyptian Hakim

    Anyone have any experience with these? I've become interested in them and am seriously thinking about trying to hunt one down? What are your thoughts on the rifle? What are its strengths and weaknesses?

    Swedish Mauser Stock Wood Question...

    So I’m looking at a couple different Swedish Mauser’s that all have different wood types for the stocks. The nicest looking one is Elm but having never handled an Elm stocked rifle I’m lost on the quality... Is Elm a good wood for gun stocks? Is there any reason to avoid it in comparison to...

    Great couple days at the range...

    So I found myself in the predicament of having 'use or lose leave' so I took a few days off and spent them at the range. Several of my milsurp rifles are newer additions and I haven't taken the time to zero and shoot them, and in the case of my M39's I finally decided to load up some D166 rounds...

    Finnish M39 Stock Finish?

    I took possession today of a 1945 Sako M39’s. It’s a beautiful rifle with almost 100% bluing. The only problem is that stock is completely dry. It appears to be sanded, but dry with no finish on the wood. Anyone know what the original finish used was? Or barring that, what a good similar option...

    WTS: Arsenal SLR-106FR

    Selling my 5.56 Arsenal SLR-106FR. Solid rifle and great shooter with the right ammo. Feeds flawlessly. I’ve had it for awhile but haven’t shot it much. I just prefer my AK’s in Russian flavor. Equipped with a Bulgarian flash hider, Polish enhanced magazine catch, and US Palm grip. Internally...

    Mosin Repro Sniper...

    So I'm considering picking up a Mosin faux-sniper for about $600. I'm not a huge fan of the Mosin platform (M39 aside) but I do have one in the safe that turned out to be a pretty good shooter once I shimmed the action and barrel. Seller claims it's a good shooter, but at worst I figure I could...

    Make your case...

    So I’ve decided to pick up one last milsurp rifle before I bow out of the game... I’m down to either a Finnish M39 or a Swiss K31, but I can’t settle on which one I want. I already have one of each, and in fact I also have a Swiss G1911 and a K11. But I also have a standard Russian 91/30, but...

    Iron Sight Accuracy...

    So it goes without saying that we all shoot better scoped vs not. That said, I’m curious what the consensus is for accuracy with iron sights? I took one of my Lee Enfield No.4’s out yesterday with a Fulton of Bisley ‘no drill’ mount and got 1 MOA average over four 5 shot groups at 100 yards. I...
