There's your problem, the Remington Golden bullets are notorious Jam-o-matics in autoloaders. Try with some CCI ammo.

I have been thinking about getting a M39 Mosin for a while, mainly for target shooting and plinking. But looking around some of these K98 and Vz. 24 Mausers seem pretty nice too. Price aside, which do you like more?

So for everyone curious, I emailed Atlantic and they said the only difference is the barrel length.

I don't understand how that the 3" difference in the barrel length would account for (initially) a $300 difference in price...

So I am considering getting a VEPR in 7.62X54r but I have come to a tough descion between two models. The gun would be for target shooting but I would also like to be able to carry it easily/handle it well so I would prefer the 20" barrel. So here is the first gun...

So I have long wanted to duracoat my Interarms AK, it is parkarized. So Wednesday I ordered the paint and airbrush and that night I completely disassembled my gun and began scrubbing it. First I hit it with brake cleaner to blast all of the the crud out of there and then the next night I...

fguffey, thanks for all your info but I suggest you start using this magic little piece of punctuation, A PERIOD! Hahah :D

243win, yeah the crack was about a half inch higher than in that photo, in fact in looked EXACTLY like this one right here http://media.photobucket.com/image/case%20head%20separation/soupersnake/LC03caseheadseparation2.jpg I am feeling that it was some bad brass, that brass was some that I...

OK it was actually twice fired brass, not once

So today at the range I was developing some .223 loads 55 Grain FMJ CCI 400 Small Rifle Primer 26.5 Grains Varget 2.230 COL 5.56 Brass I was shooting once fired brass and started developing at 25 grains, then 25.5, 26, and then I went to shoot 26.5. I am using a Savage Model 25 Bolt...

My dad is retired USMC and we are going to be going down near Quantico tomorrow. We were wondering, although we don't live within the 60 mile radius could we possibly just shoot there tomorrow without a membership or could we get a membership on site tomorrow? Thanks!!

I was looking at a couple of .223 bolt action rifles for Christmas and am a bit torn. I was looking at the Savage 10FP, Savage 12FV, and Weatherby Vanguard Series 2 but somebody suggested the Thompson Venture. I would be using this rifle for target shooting and plinking out to about 450 yards...

I am thinking about getting a Simmons Whitetail Classic Scope http://www.midwayusa.com/product/746570/simmons-whitetail-classic-rifle-scope-65-20x-50mm-adjustable-objective-truplex-reticle-matte and mounting it on my Savage 12FV. I was wondering, would this mount be high enough to mount this 50...

I am interested in purchasing this scope http://www.midwayusa.com/product/627221/bushnell-elite-3200-short-action-rifle-scope-3-10x-50mm-multi-x-reticle-matte but I am worried because it is "Short Action" it won't fit on the Savage 10FP I am picking up. Will it fit? Also, what height scope...

Well THR what do you guys think? I am planning to shoot out to 400 yards and would like a nice budget .223 target rifle.
