    Buttpad failure...

    Those replacements werent #10803 by chance were they. Im needing one and have never used/seen Limbsavers. How do they compare as to recoil absorption. Most pads are so hare they dont do much. One other potential problem is the gun is always standing on the recoil pad.

    IR 50/50 Semi Auto Record

    That is a usual reaction to a good start on any target.. Congratulations.. Now you are getting ready for the USBR target. At the last match I shot, I was out after the FIRST shot, an 8.

    4 feet of water

    Had a house fire in 1981. Guns were rusted by the next am.. I since have used RIG applied liberally. Get those guns out of the stocks, dry the external metal and apply RIG asap..the bores need some cleaning and I suppose some RIG there also. Stocks??? a real problem.

    Buttpad failure...

    Couple not the brand names mention just get hard and dont absorb much of anything. The do add some dimension to the stock but absorb recoil, NO. One Im thinking most is on a black plastic stock, 1903A3 Springfield. Took it off and replaced w/ a nice fitting 5/16 " wood plate.

    6.5mm Decisions Decisions

    Should be relatively easy to make a 30-06 into a 6.5-06.. Lots of brass and all you need is a couple dies and new barrel, or complete gun. Great bullets available in that caliber.

    What to fill rear bag with?

    Way back long time ago the ROTC range had to be cleaned periodically. The lead was sold but the dust--wow.. the poor lungs even w/ a face mask. Main problem was the dust. The range was like the Saraha dessert-no rain for weeks. I think a few times they even tried wetting it down about Wed and...

    .243 to .243 ackley

    So what is the gain-velocity. so what is the loss-about 10-15% more powder, more recoil, more barrel wear(burning)?? How far do you want to shoot?? Maybe another gun (caliber) would be as good/better than AI. In my case and other shooters Ive talked w/ recently we seem to think that a load...
