This is the first opportunity for Central Californians to have their own Appleseed. As always women, anyone under 21, and all active military can participate in the two days of instruction for just the cost of the range fees. Check our Appleseed at: http://appleseedinfo.org Info on the...

Appleseed Don't worry about the "snipers", they are missing the whole point of Appleseed. And since most of the shoots are at 25 meters that 24X scope just gets distracting chasing every bump. Any mag fed 22 with a sling is the right tool for this job (500 rounds can get expensive). If you want...

Yes it is a post '64 with a serial number of 2,8xx,xxx

Sorry about the picture size, I should have posed a dial-up warning. I tried to cut it down but it was impossible to get the detail of the slot and it's location on the lever with a smaller picture.

I was cleaning up my Son-In-Laws 30/30 for my grandson when I noticed the action binding as it went into battery, but only if I was pulling downward on the lever as it closed. I tracked the problem to a slot in the lever that had an oblong end, but I can't tell if this is wear or if it should be...

I guess I can throw in my two cents. I have a Rem. 700vsf in 308 that I've been putting together and tuning up for benchrest. I'd like to be able to compete with some of the long range shooters, 600 to 1000 yards. Part of the process will be doing my own hand load but I have just finished my...

When the two parties started acting more alike than different, the thought of voting for one or the other became more and more repugnant. In my view I would have to be a brainless sheep to vote for either one. I'd rather be accused of being a dreamer, and hope that others will vote because they...

Ya... they ain't tack drivers but I'd like to get better than than the 72 MOA :banghead: that I'm getting with my M38 and check silvertip.

Never owned a Mini, but I've always hated setting to the right of them. I've never seen a rifle that could throw brass so hard.

Picked up a 1942, M38 from Big 5, $90.00, matching serial numbers all around. The rifleing looks good, has been recrowned and counterbored. Bought a battle pack of Chek surplus, took it all to the range for a little bench rest. omg... I didn't know a rifle could miss a 3'x3' target and 50...

I'm surprised nobody has said anything about the hight of the sight over bore. That will have a lot of effect on the distance between where the bullet first crosses the line of sight on the way up and where it crosses on the way back down.

Are you looking to have the underside radiused to match the curve of the receiver?

I would save the 16 and 18 for hunting from the blind. if your going mobile a good 14 in a carbine length + fluted barrel is the ticket. you might want to hand load the rounds a little light though. and of course you give up a little range.

The adjustable gas block sounds like a great idea. I wish more mini owners would install them 'cause that hard flung brass can be near as dangerous as the lead coming out other end. Wifey almost had a heart attack once as I came off the fireing line during a shoot with blood dripping down my...

Here's the range I shoot at Sacramento Valley Shooting Center http://www.sacvalley.org/ It has every thing I want
