    Differences between old and new Kimber?

    I have a Kimber of Oregon model 84 Super Varminter 223R. I would like to get a McMillan A5 stock for it but McMillan doesn't seem to make them. They do however make the A5 for the new Kimber "America" model 8400 Tactical in 308 (I think the 8400 are long actions but their site states 308 caliber...

    .300 whisper/fireball?

    RUAG makes factory loaded 300 Whisper and brass. The brass is marked "300 Whisper" so I guess they have some sort of deal with SSK. I have a feeling that they don´t sell to civilians though... http://www.ruag.ch/ruag/juice?pageID=134116

    H&k P9s

    The thing that makes them unique is that they sprung out of a Heckler & Koch that must have been a paradise for nutty constructors. These pistols got designed in the late 60s. Rewind the tape and think about what handguns they carried in those days. The P9S must have been beamed down from the...

    How strong is the Remington 600 Action?

    When they went out of service (with the national guard or Home Guard as we call them) they sold them en masse for virtually nothing. Even brand new rifles that had spent close to 100 years in storage, unshot. They gave away tons of them to the national shooting federation and some got melted for...

    Browning Hi-Power question

    Just don't do it on a regular basis. It will not ruin the gun (like some tend to belive) but it does accelerate wear.

    How strong is the Remington 600 Action?

    The pigs are up to about 600lbs (250-280kg). They are considered much tougher than moose. 6,5X55 is allowed for moose (and pig) but also considered to be on the weak side for that job. A new Remington 700 VSF is about $1500 over here. A new match barrel is about $500 installed. I bought the...

    How strong is the Remington 600 Action?

    The 6,5X55 is too long to fit in a short action but it is defenetly the most common caliber over here along with 30-06 and 308W. 8X57JS, 9,3X57 and 9,3X62 are also very common. Oldschool is the word... The 6,5X55 is considered to be a bit weak for use on boar. It's legal but most boarhunters...

    How strong is the Remington 600 Action?

    Well, I have heard a lot of positive things about 270WSM and 300WSM. Seems to be the death ray everybody wants for wild boar. I understand the problems with the bolt face. Getting a spare bolt is out of the question. I am perfectly happy with the 600 apart from the fact that it has a...

    How strong is the Remington 600 Action?

    What's the most powerful rounds that the Remington 600 action can handle? It's a short action, sure, but what about 270 WSM, 300 WSM and so on? Is the 600 more fragile than the 700 action? I have a 600 in 222 Rem. I am considering getting a bigger rifle for bigger game but customizing the 600...

    Help me ID inherited Remington

    I have inherited a Remington pump shotgun, serial no 95XXX. It was bought used by my uncle in october 1960. I don't have it here yet so there is no way of examining it closer at this point. The only info I have is mentioned above and thats what it says on the licence. I'm very curious about...

    Most Accurate 9mm Out of the Box

    The SIG P210 is the most accurate pistol ever produced, period. Very few custom pistols come close to it. The HK P9S is probably second to the SIG along with the X5/6. And by the way - I have two... :neener:

    Are Aimpoints that great?

    As with most things you get what you pay for. There is a good reason for Aimpoint being the main supplier of red-dot sights to elite military units around the world.

    6,5x55mm Swede convert to 6,5x51mm Wildcat

    Just be careful if you use an old military action (we call them m/96). They aren't able to cope with any higher than normal preassure.

    Bolt action 500S&W rifle...?

    Ok. Maybe not the ideal rifle. But it could be done on a mauser type action? What about 223 Rem (have access to unlimited supply of surplus ammo) or 22-250 in a Rem 600?

    whats the best 9mm auto ever made?

    Interesting to see all posts not stating the SIG P210. Actually, there are very few pistols in the top league. SIG P210, X5, X6, Smith & Wesson PC, maybe a few top-of-the-line custom 1911s (and very few of them actually are), the o-ring HKs (Expert & Elite). What else? BHPs, Glocks, CZs etc...

    I've got two SIG P210s on loan for inspection. One 210-5 Long Sport in 30 Luger and one of the early 47/8 9mm ones. I think I'll buy both actually...
