Miss???

That 500 dollar build will be the best 2300 you ever spent 4700 on.

Could find out. Had him do one for me on the 6.5 Skan but there were a LOT of other things involved. From what he said at the start Rem had some good and some not so good. The not so good were spendy. Its nice. I know him and his work so when I went to build, I didnt ask. They guy is Mike, Buffalo V...

Finding that is
A.tough
B. Cost as much as buying a good action.

OR a over the counter trued by someone who knows what hes doing. You never knew how much a 700 sucks until you do.

I shot a “practice@ shot of bullseye at Notth Canton the week before Perry. To the right was the Marine Corps, to the left was the Army MU. I landed all my shots on the scoring ring for the first ever course of fire. The Marine Sgt next to me said, “first time ever?” “Yup” “well, poop keep this up ...

Man Ohio in July… sticky! Glad you’re having a great time, great shooting! The son came out to shoot, pretty well wiped out all of my gatoraid zero. Wasnt awful. Mid and low 80's. Looks like national matches are going to be toasty though. I am shooting a 2400 agg Tues-Thurs and a 4 man team on Fri....

None of that makes any sense to me. But, I’m glad you’re shooting. This site takes out all of the structure I put in to it. 20th standing out of 147 shooters ME name 184 - 0 ..standing score at 200 yards 199 - 13 ...sitting rapid fire score at 200 198 - 9 ...prone rapid fire at 300 yards 194 - 7 .....

Now i am re-interested to find the cost to reload .45 I would weigh that vs the cost of everything. I could easily shoot 100rds / week if there was sufficient savings over factory to cover the cost of a basic press and dies in 6months FB marketplace is a pretty good place. Gunshops in the area migh...

If you cant get what you want any other way, then time is never a factor. service rifle? Can I buy stuff I use for the short lines? Heck yes, and I know the guy that makes it and he is a perfectionist. He also charges like one. I would go broke buying 77gr match 556 in the volume I use. Posted I had...

Its only a matter of time before someone shows up touting the 6.5 Manbun with the same intensity

My condolences.

Not in PA, not an abnormal occurrence. We still have a flintlock season

Went to Reade for 3 days of shooting. Fri shot a 4 man team match with a pick up team and we did pretty well. I shot a 484. We were 1930 ish (?) We were the top service rifle team. We were the only service rifle team but I am not letting that add negativity to the #1 spot :) Match rifle team was a g...
