    Off set scope mount

    I have two sets of the Morr offset rings that I bought over a year ago; had cataracts, especially in right eye and I shoot right handed. It wasn't difficult to still shoot RH and use my left eye. Had cataract surgery both eyes not quite a year ago, so looking forward to better vision this...

    R.I.P. Larry Kuse

    I remember first meeting Larry at a BR match in Council Bluffs about 3 years ago. Always helpful and encouraging; I never heard him speak in anger or with disrespect of anything/anyone. I also saw him shoot his then VFS world record at CB in 2012. He was the reason that I began travelling to...

    Just so you know........ This would never happen in rural Iowa; we're far too refined to behave in that redneck manner! :D Don

    Case Trimmer

    I'll go 6 for the Sinclair-Wilson trimmer setup. The micrometer setup reading matches exactly with my caliper reading after trimming. Sure reduces the setup time and trial and error misses. Don

    Lack of supplies

    Abbydad - as someone who works PT in the hunting section of our local big-box outdoor retailer, let me assure you that none of the floor associates/worker bees have any knowledege of when anything will be coming in in the future. We aren't able to take special orders for most anything...

    Wanting to build a 17 Fireball

    I have several 221 FBs and also 221FB in 700 LVSF. The Remington 700 fireball actions use a slightly different magazine spring and follower dimension than the 223's and also the location of the ejector on the bolt is positioned differently. Many folks report some problems with...

    Ethanol Gas

    I'm with JLC on this. Here in Iowa I've used ethanol in just about everything for a looooong time and it's never caused any problems in anything. The API doing an 'unbiased' study regarding ethanol is about like having the East Anglia University do an 'unbiased' study on global warming. Don

    Ya gotta appreciate remington

    If you watch that Remington promo video closely, you will see that in the last half they show the target from a 22 being shot and then a little later a target from a centerfire - it's the same target, same hits!! I guess editing/marketing principles really haven't changed much over the years...

    Change happen Part III

    Charles, If you want to bet your wad on the 100:1 filly, go right ahead! Myself, I'm not too much of a gambling man. We're all responsible for our actions. Because something doesn't work out the way you originally envisioned doesn't mean that someone else is to blame for that turn of events...

    Change happen Part III

    Mike and Charles - To summarize my points, financial literacy in the US is abysmal. At some point, common sense has to prevail. As a general rule, at least when it comes time to sign loan notes, you don't get something for nothing; if it looks too good to be true, it probably is! If I had...

    Change happen Part III

    Charles, I would take issue with what you said in post #10 - that not reading a rental car agreement is the same as not reading a mortgage agreement/promissory note. I would argue - not even close! If I fail to fully read the rental car agreement, what's the worst that could happen? I might...
