    Remington M552 Accuracy and Reliability

    I have had a 552 for about 10 years. I gave it to my wife. She loves it. It is reliable and fun to shoot. It is accurate enough for a plinker and will give 1" to 1.5" groups at 50 yards with target ammo. Standard ammo is more like 2" at 50 yards. It gets very dirty and will jam after 100...

    Mojo on K31

    I also had a lot of trouble removing the front sight on my K31 to install the Mojo. I destroyed a brass punch trying to get it out. In the end it took a hardened steel punch and a large hammer to do the job. There was no damage to the K31, but it is a strange feeling to attack a rifle with...

    I was attacked by 2 dogs this AM...

    How about carrying a small screwdriver. All you need is 4" of penetration to equal a folding combat knife. Most people would not consider it a weapon and it is not obvious if you have it in a pocket. With a narrow tip it will work as well as a knife. I believe they are quite popular and...

    Model 7 .308 Recoil

    I have an older Model Seven with a wood stock and 18.5" barrel in .308 with a Leupold 2.5-8x36 scope. As others have said recoil depends on your perspective. Personally I found the recoil to be unpleasant on the bench but acceptable in the field. Once you sight it in you should have no...
