    Paint wearing out on the muzzle / crown of the barrel?

    Got a barretta cx4 9mm carbine and noticed that the paint started wearing out on the muzzle / crown end of it. Is that normal or something to be concerned about?

    Can anyone recommend a 1X sight with a simple reticle?

    I was going to put this on a Barretta CX4 for short/medium range plinking. A fellow on another forum suggested a PK AS russian optic and now I can't decide between that and the Leupold. I have a feeling that the Leupold is better quality but like the not-as-busy reticle of the PK AS (Circle and...

    Can anyone recommend a 1X sight with a simple reticle?

    I just got a chance to look through a Mepro M21 with a bullseye reticle, but unfortunately the reticle was too thick and busy for my eyes that it made it hard to aim at a distance (I have some astigmatism). I was doing some searching on the internet and found some scopes that may be good for...

    How fast do you need to shoot a bolt action rifle to overheat?

    Since I'm pretty new at this, I thought I would ask how fast do you need to shoot a bolt action rifle in order to overheat the stainless steel barrel? By overheating, I mean starting to cause excessive wear on the barrel and the two particular rifles I am considering are: Tikka T3 Lite...

    Does anyone make rifles with melonite barrels?

    I was primarily looking at a bolt action for hunting in rainy/harsh/near ocean environments, but a light semi will do. I will also be shooting it at a range and will not always let it cool down. I started looking at stainless steel barrels, but read something that suggested they would are less...
