Hello, I have a Saiga in 308 with a side rail for a scope mount. When I put the mount on and tried to sight it in, the scope ended up more than a foot low at 25 yards, with the scope maxed out. The mount looks like it would be adjustable. It is an all-in-one, complete with rings...

Hello, I was reading a Usenet article on shotguns, and the writer claimed that a side by side shotgun was given a 5 clays per hundred handicap when shooting against an over/under. Does this sound reasonable? That a sxs is about 5% less successful than an ou? I know that ou's...

Hello, I just bought a Marlin 980V bolt action in .22 to work on my off hand shooting. For those of you not familiar with it, it is a heavy barrel bolt action with a pretty much full sized stock. I suspect that it is a lot more accurate than I am, but I am having a problem with the scope...

Hello, Trolling :neener: for opinions on what will happen with Saiga rifles now that EAA has stopped importing them. Will another importer pick them up? I am trying to decide whether or not to buy a few magazines for my .308, just in case. At about $50 a mag, it is not an easy...

Hello, I took my M44 out for the first time the other day, and after each shot, the bolt was almost impossible to open. I had to use the heel of my hand to beat the bolt open. This began with the very first shot, so I don't think that it is due to left over laquer in the chamber, since it...

Hello, In one of the Romancing the Stone movies, Michael Douglas carried a pump shotgun in kind of a holster, across his back. It looked a lot like a rifle scabbard that John Wayne would have used. (Gee, I must watch an awful lot of movies!) Has anyone seen anything like this, or...

Hello, I have a mag extension on my 870. It has a barrel clamp. I don't like metal to metal contact, so I put some strips of rubber from an innertube between the clamps and the barrel, which gives nice grip with no scratching. BUT, the oils that I have used (CLP, RemOil, FP10-CLP...

Hello, The History Channel had a wonderful series of shows on Snipers. The section on British snipers really caught my attention. There were using 338 Lapua (sp?), in a bolt action. I was trying to pick up any pointers that I could. One thing I thought was neat, they used the bolt...

Hello, I saw a statement by some actors group (Screen Actors Guild?) saying that we have to make sure that there is no "black list" for actors who are protesting the war, and it has gotten me thinking. That's almost always a bad thing, but here goes. On the one hand, I don't think...

Hello, It is common to hear that you should not put a Sidesaddle on a Benelli or any other recoil operated shotgun, because the added weight will affect the operation, but I can't figure that out. Added weight should HELP a recoil operated shotgun, not interfere with its...

Hello, The title pretty much says it all. Has anyone tried putting Tung Oil on an 870 Express stock? I don't know what the original finish is, so I hesitate to put anything on it blindly. I don't want to strip and re-finish, but I would like to add a little extra protection, and...

Hello, Just got a bottle of FP-10 CLP, and I noticed a difference between that and Breakfree CLP almost immediatly: it does not seem to spread as far. I am not saying that this a bad thing, it almost seems to be soaking IN to the metal, which could be a very good thing, but it...
