    Forbes Rifles

    There have been several reports of bad QC in the rifles. Rounds would not extract and bedding looked like it was done by a 5 year old. Add that to a safety cut out that you could drop a round through and I will pass for now.

    Bright Low Light scope

    "If you divide the scopes objecitve size by its magnification you get the exit pupil rating." A lot of the newer super zooms do not hold to this rule and have smaller exit pupils than typical 3X zoom scopes. IMHO after you cross an imaginary line somewhere around $400 and until you cross...

    Cartridge Inherent Accuracy Question

    The question was about "inherent accuracy", which makes it first about bullets and bullet design.

    Cartridge Inherent Accuracy Question

    You need to think in terms of bullets first. Then think in terms of a good way to deliver them. This includes cartridge, brass, barrels, chambers, mag length, triggers, and sights, but it's always about bullets first.

    Bright Low Light scope

    Meopta Mepro 3X9X42 with #4 reticle. The #4 reticle is great for low light. Lowest priced good low light scope I know of.

    Kimber mountain ascent?

    Get what you want but I personally "hate" shorter barrels. I've never been where I couldn't swing or point a longer barrel. The short barrel only robs velocity and causes ear damage.

    Kimber mountain ascent?

    I have an 84M 7mm-08. Personally I wouldn't opt for the Mountain ascent unless it was the same money. I handled the MA and hated the feel of the bolt. You can also buy titanium aftermarket bolts and trigger guards which will mean that you will pay about $500 more just for 2 oz. I just...

    Remarkable bladesmith

    Those daggers leave me breathless. I was pretty happy with some of my work until now. You set the standard very high,and that's a good thing!

    Leaf Springs?

    Really old American springs are likely 5160. 5160 is so cheap I would rather just buy it and know what I am working with before putting knife effort into it.

    Thoughts on a new hunting rifle in 7mm08

    If you want blued steel and walnut-- Winchester model 70 Light weight- Tikka , Kimber or Remington 700 mountain. Economy- Savage.

    Forbes Rifles M24B and M20B

    I have a nice Kimber Montana in 7mm-08 that shoots under 1" at 100 with ammo it likes. Fit and finish is perfect. I think the Roulette happened a few years ago when they had a problem with barrels and then from folks who can't shoot a light rifle. Just my opinion. The Forbes rifles are not as...

    New Nosler Rifles

    I wonder what the reviews mean by "Howa in drag"? I didn't know they used the same action. If I am not mistaken, the designer of the Howa designed this action and they are very similar. At least that's what the web buzz revealed.

    Question about rifle scopes and muzzle brakes

    Yep, scopes will always move forward under recoil. The best advice I can give you is to learn to mount your own optics and to do all low level smith jobs. Many times I have seen so called gun smith's do a much worse job than I would have.

    Firing both barrells

    Only put one finger on the trigger and you won't ever have to experience it. It will never be a benefit but could cause great harm.

    How to Loossen Up a SxS

    Just take it part and see if there are any burrs you can remove by stoning. Just look for shiny rough spots. Other than that you are just suffering from lack of fit and finish which happens with lower priced guns.

    Did I make a mistake using these scope rings?

    I hate ring marks.
