    Remington 700 From Custom Shop

    I will share with you that I had the opportunity to spend time with the Remington employees in their Custom Shop. The employees that work there are solid upstanding modest individuals that could be your friend or mine. They take pride in their work and to use the term used by others, "fine...

    Remington 700 From Custom Shop

    In my somewhat limited experience with Remington I have found their service work done by the custom shop in Ilion to be nothing short of exceptional. I would strongly encourage that you get in touch with the guys in the custom shop and tell them of the problems with that rifle. They have never...

    Redfield LE-12 Modification

    I also have an LE-9 and initially found the reticle to undesireable. After I used a while I felt that it will work for the hunting rifle that I have it on. I have had good luck with repairs done by Mike Sexton at Iron Sights. The wait was long, but the repairs are great. They have a web site...

    Brass for .221 Fireball & 222 Rem

    Brass for .221 Fireball & 222 Rem

    For the .222 you have a limited number of choices. R-P Norma RWS WW Federal The Norma may be good, but costs $80+ per hundred, the R-P and WW are about $25 per hundred. People talk highly about the RWS, but I have no experience with it. I use the WW. It is pretty good especially if you are...

    Converting 722 SA to BDL style

    Does that old 722 in 6mm or .244 have a 1:12 twist barrel. Despite all the bad press, they shoot like a dream. I have one that loves 60gr Sierra HPFB bullets. Peter.
