    Just getting started...

    welllllll - maybe! Seems this is a bad time to try to start reloading. Want to start reloading 308/7.62X51 but wow - powder and primers are nowhere to be found. I have found some bullets and gotten on some mailing lists and have some stuff on back order but other than that I got nothing! Any...

    Rifle Scopes Looking for some info on a Shepherd scope

    Thanks for the responses! This is exactly what I needed - questions back that make me define and think through what it is I really want to do!

    Shopping for a 308 bolt action

    Good day! I am looking at getting into a 7.62X51/308 auto loader, just not real excited about the results I am getting with my 5.56 at 100 yards - from a bench, 3-4 inch groups using Lake City or Federal 855 ammo. I have seen quite a bit on the DPMS rifles but mostly the 556, any critique on...
