    The Great Ammo Drought

    sadly...powder and primers have gone the same way that loaded ammo has...people are buying JUST to resale.. I've seen so many guys buy up the 8lb jugs of varget around here, just to sale...a lot of them are rimfire or shotgun shooters only. But, honestly, powder and primers were never hard...

    The Great Ammo Drought

    what I mean is, as i stated earlier, the guys that are camping out and waiting till the stores open each day...buying every bit of ammo...then going online, to flea markets, to gun shows, to other shops....and reselling for a profit. They don't buy ammo to shoot or hoard or store or anything...

    The Great Ammo Drought

    considering there is no "shortage"...there is only a fabricated buying out. Greed is what has caused the "shortage" and nothing more.

    The Great Ammo Drought

    how, exactly, would that make one "pathetic"? To some of us, this is merely a hobby. A passing hobby even. Also, some of use are still working for our money and have priorities that might not include stockpiling ammo, bullets, primers, brass, and rimfire ammo. It's rather crude to lump...

    I need a front bag for my Cowan rest

    as I said...i currently have several protektor bags...and none are fitting as they should in my top. They're bunched up and too wide. These are standard owl ear bags.....

    The Great Ammo Drought

    the liberals are an issue, but they aren't forcing ANYONE to go out and buy all of the ammo off the shelf....then turn around and resale it for the gouging prices we've come to expect lately. They didn't force anyone to buy up all the pmags and gi mags and pistol mags that people did....and...

    I need a front bag for my Cowan rest

    I have a cowan rest that I'm needing to get a 3" bag for. I have a few of the owl ear bags for my sporter rifles...but none of the bags seems to fit in the top that well. They're too wide and too long, alebit close, but it's enough to put a crease in the bag from being squished. I like...

    New Cooper

    the sad thing is, well it's actually not sad for the OP at all, that is the smallest group ive ever seen out of a 223rem! Damn...I need to save some pennies up for a while, those Coopers are SEXY

    For the car guys among us

    i love a good post-4-eye fox body...i really do, I just hate that Ford was so cheap when it came to the 5.0 windsor block. the mexican ain't much better...and even an r-block still leaves a little to desire. But....i can't get past the looks, i LOVE a notch. I'm hoping that within the next...

    The Great Ammo Drought

    hunting clubs and retired men are the #1 enemy for shooters right now, sad to say. They're the guys that camp out, team up, and buy every single round of .22lr, 9mm, 45acp, 38/357, 223, 7.62x39, etc.. They buy it at walmart, dicks, Academy, cabela's, etc.....then flip it at a gun show, in a...

    Need info on davidson single shot adapter

    back from the dead............had my smith order a PT&G when he got my reamer, but they were currently out....so said mess on it. I plan to use this gun for varmint and bench (223ai...so nothing serious) and use a drop in follower...but anyways....i just ordered a sinclair one since my rifle is...

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    well....i guess I'll start saving and work on deciding between a Marsh, Bat, and Stiller Cobra... what do you guys think about 3 lug actions as opposed to 2 lug?

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    well....I could bed it myself....that's not really a big deal considering it'll be a single shot and solid bottom action. Pillars I can/will get done when the stock is done and just have Bill do it when it's inlett'd

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    hmm....very good points... so i'll have to ensure that whatever action i choose does use pillars and skim bedding... THANK YOU!

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    I appreciate the offer, but this will be spread across a few months...and really wanting to go through the whole process of building up the rifle myself. I've been doing more of that sort of thing in the past few years....makes me appreciate the stuff more and I tend to hang onto it longer.

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    stock will be a Shehane ST1000, he's local and I shoot with some of his old shooting buddies so I definitely want my money going to someone that supports the sport as much as he does. but, what are the downsides to a glue in?

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    the Cobra was my first choice, by a large margin....followed by the Marsh... I really do like the shorter footprint of them. I'll keep looking though....and I'm going to call up the local group of smith's and see what their lead time and opinions are. Now...commmme on tax refund!

    Which action/setup should I go with?

    Well....I'd not mind a glue in...but only if I could still do a change barrel setup. Ultimately I'd like a 1:8 barrel as well
