    Steel Target - Concentric Rings?

    I shoot on steel IPSC plates. I just spraypaint whatever target I want. Typically, it will just be a white dot to focus on, but you could make yourself a cutout template and spray paint with different colors. Even if a steel plate were to come in different colors like you mentioned, the...

    CZ 550FS in 9.3x62 report

    I figure its picture time: The Hogsback Beaut What I mean by blading the bolt handle. Its a technique that allows one to clear a mounted scope with the hand. Round not ejecting, sitting on bolt face when I get that wrong angle at the end of the bolt open position. CRF...

    CZ 550FS in 9.3x62 report

    Shadow, I found if I don't hold the bolt by the knob, but rather "blade" the bolt back with my index finger(which I would do if a scope was mounted) while cycling, it throws the rounds about 15 ft! This was verified after about 100 ejected rounds. So, you are right in that there is a...

    CZ 550FS in 9.3x62 report

    Well, I got my cz 550 FS in yesterday and looking to boxing it up to send to the factory already. If I have the rifle shouldered and hold the bolt while cycling, the damn thing won't eject the rounds or empty brass off the bolt face and causes a double feed situation all the time. If I cycle...

    CZ 550FS in 9.3x62 report

    Haha! You remind me of, well...me! Coyote with a 9.3x62...cracks me up. I have a hankering for that same rifle of yours. Trying to work up some scratch-cook some books-trade-sell-pander-steal-credit card bomb to get it done, lol. It will feel real nice in my hands reading my African...

    Remington Slugger: Regular vs. High Velocity

    Remington Slugger 2, 3/4" 1oz slugs out of my 18.5" 870 group damned near on top of each other at 100yds. The 3" 1oz do the same. However, they both get 14 inches of drop. So I thought if I went with the lighter 7/8oz slug and high velocity I could narrow my drop margin. I tried both the...

    Haha, good point. But least we forget the terminal ballistics of 9 32cal pellets inside a popcan diameter hole on a bad guy!

    New Model 870 Police in July 2010 - blued finish/walnut stocks - sweet!

    Well, I was in the market for a used 870 Police...then I saw DHart on shotgun world and ordered a 24899. I figured why not get this beauty and go new. I will get it engraved "Deputy (insert my last name)" Got the extension too!

    Coach gun for home defense?

    Well, my experience wasn't quite as dramatic, but I found it pointless to fire both barrels at once.

    Coach gun for home defense?

    Ha, I've been looking at pads...shoulder hurts after a box of birdshot and a few slugs. I already took a dremel tool to the auto action bar safety, hee-hee! Federal flight control 00 buck inbound. Might also spring for some S&B #1 buck.

    Any Peltor P-T-L Ear Muff Experience?

    Yeah, your good to go. Peltor wouldn't produce a set of muffs that would amplify gunshots. You can imagine how many people would forget to turn them off if that were the case. Lawsuit aplenty!

    Electronic hearing protection

    TAC 6s I use my TAC 6s hunting and on mission. Using the electronic pro hunting will make you a quiet/sneakier hunter because with the phones turned up you think you sound like an elephant on eggshells. They take in alot of background noise, but they also let you hear snorts and grunts you...

    Otis, Deluxe or Tactical?

    Otis makes it hard don't they. I must have stared at that web page for an hour trying to decide what I wanted/best value. I came to the conclusion that I could just order the flex rods and use my own brushes and cleaning gear. I bought the .17 and universal flex rods for $19 total.

    Aimpoint and EOTECH brightness

    Some settings on the Eotech and Aimpoint will be too bright(won't be a defined reticle) for sunny conditions. I own and hunt with both an Eotech and an Aimpoint during the summers with no problems. When hunting with a red dot, you have to pay attention to the lighting conditions. I learned...

    Help pick my DSA FAL!

    Ned, I know of no other rifle that has an internet forum board singing songs and writing poetry in its honor, other than the Para FAL. See for yourself: Topic: How did I ever survive without a Para-FAL? (now with songs and poetry)...
