    A hobbyist’s endeavors…..

    Some 15 years or so ago, I snagged a stevens 200 chambered in .30-06. I’ve always been one to tinker with my rifles and try to get as much accuracy out of them as I don’t/ didn’t have a budget all the time for a custom built or gun shop worked over smoke pile. The first rifles I worked over...

    Nosler brass.

    All virgin nosler .260 Remington brass. Opted to deburr and uniform size the rest of the flash holes today. I don’t remember seeing other brands this severe.

    M40 clone?

    So last winter I finally got my .260 Remington barrel and the .280 Remington stuff to put together. The model 10 action I had is set up as a prs style with a MDT XRS chassis. Two weeks ago I came across a decent deal on a Model 11 rifle and snagged it. I really liked the B&C Alaskan I got on...

    VX Freedom vs VX3HD vs VX5HD

    what are the actual differences in these scopes? My understanding for the most part, the VX3HD is 1", the VX5HD is 30 mm. I am ultimately looking for a solid scope with quality glass and nothing CDS style. So what does Leupold have that's equal to the Nightforce SHV, but not 30mm (not...

    For want of a .22LR today.

    Left for work again on Friday. Drove to big spring TX. Deliver in the morning. We got into the Truckstop tonight and sitting in the yard behind. If there were 100, there were 200. They were chatty too. From about 25 yards out to 400 yards.

    Another fine quality Vortex Diamondback…

    Pretty sure the turret isn’t supposed to come off with the cap. Waiting for a warranty RMA now for vortex. I doubt it will be back in time for Minnesota deer season in November.

    First inertia shotguns…

    So I finally decided to get my first ever inertia semi auto 12 ga. Wanted something both for a field gun and 3-gun gaming… I had the Beretta A400 and the Benelli M2 in mind. Top is an Impala Plus Nero 12 ga 3” chamber. 4+1 comes with 5 choke tubes. Talk about a natural pointer. Cost was...

    Looking for cheaper prices???

    Years back, I got my Curio & Relics FFL. I used it to gain access to a lot of wholesale suppliers like midwayUSA, brownells, Graf and Sons, Midsouth shooters, and a few other places. Those accounts it turns out are still active it seems despite a 14+ year break from using some of them. A...

    1-4x scope

    Anyone have any experience with the SWFA 1-4X SS? https://www.swfa.com/swfa-ss-1-4x24-tactical-30mm-riflescope-109309.html Looking for a lower power scope for shots under 400 yards and likely in low visibility as well. So well within the MPBR of the rifles, .260 Remington and .280 Remington...

    Winter boots…. Thank you whomever..

    Someone commented in another thread where it was asked what people wear for late season winter footwear… Someone recommended the N-1B extreme cold weather boot. One of the things I don’t like about vapor boot is the shear weight. So I took a chance on your recommendation and got some N-1B…...
