      Safe to Shoot?

      Rifle is a Tikka T3X UPR chambered in 6.5CM. I just noticed a crack in the stock behind the bolt and have sent in a warranty claim. I have only put a couple hundred rounds through this rifle. Mix of factory 140/147 ELD-Ms and I also did some ladder testing of 147 ELMs over H4350 the other...

      Overpressure?

      Do these marks look like overpressure? I have them on several pieces of peterson 6.5 CM brass. I didn't see it when I was shooting - I just noticed after a clean and inspection. I did have a small amount that were .2 over max but I have these marks on many more that would have been under max...

      Youth NRL22 or Similar close to Indy?

      I would like to get my son involved with some NRL22 type events. I have been to the official NRL22 site and it appears the closest clubs/matches are either Nashville or Kokomo. Does anyone know of any clubs closer to Indy that put on NRL22 or NRL22-like events? I wouldn't mind driving that...

      American Rimfire Targets - am i scoring this correctly?

      I think I am but I'm uncertain about some where the outer edge of the whole breaks a line. For example, #24. Is that 100 or 50?

      What is your favorite PRS scale?

      Just getting into some PRS/LRS so I will apologize in advance for the barrage of questions. My current focus is on my neck tension process and powder scale accuracy. I have a $70 hornady digital scale and I know for a fact that it is not up to snuff. I started just looking at things like the...

      PRS Reloading Question on Neck Tension

      I am really just getting into the precision side of rifle reloading. I am primarily doing 6.5 Creedmor but also reload .223 and .300 although i don't really do precision shooting with those. For 6.5, I currently use a rock chucker and have the full set of lee dies (includes FL sizer and neck...

      Squirrel hunting and camping at Deam

      Anybody ever do a backpacking/squirrel hunting trip at Deam? I'm thinking about going out for a weekend and going after some reds. If you have been, where did you camp?

      Eyebox adjustment - Bench vs. Prone question

      I have a 10/22 in a Magpul stock that I meticulously adjusted the scope on to have the proper setup when seated at a bench. I tucked the stock nice and tight into my shoulder, let my cheek fall naturally on the comb and adjusted from there. I want to start doing some prone shooting so I was...

      WTS/WTT: WTS/WTT - Tac-Sol Charger (or 10/22 Takedown SBR) XRP Barrel - 9"

      I have a BNIB Tac-Sol 9" barrel that will go on either a Ruger Charger OR a 10/22 takedown (if it is SBRd). I SBRd mine and this is a spare that has never been out of the package. Looking to trade for an unused 16"+ 10/22 bull barrel (not takedown style) or sell outright for $300.

      Need a case trimmer - index off of base or shoulder?

      So I need a case trimmer and there are a million out there. I am only doing 223 and 300 BO and I'm looking in the below $200 range. I probably wouldn't do more than 1 or 2k in each caliber per year. I think I have narrowed my options down to either: The Forster Original...

      Dings in necks of .223

      I have been reloading other cartridges for a while but am just now starting .223. I cleaned up some brass (some of mine + some range pickups, various headstamps) and almost all of them have a single nick/dimple in the neck area. Just curious if anyone has seen this or know what causes it?

      New Primary Arms 3-18X50 FFP

      Got an email about a new scope from PA. I don't have any PA stuff - does anyone have any idea how this will compare to the Vortex Strike Eagle 3-18? I have my mind set on getting a Sig Cross in 6.5 and am wanting to get some decent glass at the sub 800 price point. Primary Arms...

      What is going on here?

      What do you suppose is the issue here? I am not 100% positive on brand but I believe it is some very old winchester white box .223. Definitely not reloads. I had it stored in an ammo can - probably 20 years old. On several occasions, I took a shot and got a FTF. Ejected the round and this is...

      Healthcare is broken

      I had an MRI done on my shoulder not too long ago and the healthcare provider billed $2500 for it. The insurance company negotiated it down to $300. They didn't pay the other $2200, they just only pay $300 and because the provider is in-network, they have to accept that and I get to pay $300...

      Scope Imperfections?

      I brought out my 24" AR15 this past weekend to do some 100 yard plinking. It has an older Mueller 4-16x50 and at 16 power, I noticed a bunch of black specks that I don't recall being there in the past although it has probably been 10+ years since I shot this one. I'm debating whether or not to...

      Old AR Handguard Removal?

      Does anyone recognize this style of handguard? I have a pretty old AR with a 24" barrel that I would like to swap the handguard out for one with M-lock or something so I can run a bipod and I am not 100% sure how to remove it. I am assuming that once I remove the gas block, I can heat the rear...

      300 Subsonics - what's your favorite?

      I loaded up some 300s with Lil Gun to test out this weekend using some Berry's 220 grain plated bullets. Using a Ruger American w/ 16" barrel, it seems like 8 grains was the most accurate and (I think?) slow enough to stay subsonic. I was using CFE BLK which ran well in the AR but seemed noisy...

      Good Budget Spotting Scope for the Range

      Anyone have a suggestion on a decent spotting scope for the range? Just want to be able to spot hits at 100-200 yards.
