    How much misalignment between scope rings is acceptable?

    How much misalignment do you think a scope can tolerate without affecting internal function (elevation and windage adjustments, zoom etc...) I don't require or expect super perfect alignment, and i'm sure scopes are designed to tolerate a certain amount, i just dont have a feel for how much...

    How much misalignment between scope rings is acceptable?

    I’m installing some Talley lightweight scope mounts onto my new Winchester model 70 featherweight and I’m concerned with the amount of misalignment I’m seeing. When I place alignment bars in the rings and torque everything to spec, I’m seeing a vertical offset of about .008”. They have good...

    Lip at case mouth after resize on 6.5 Swede cases

    The pictured cases were fresh out of the resizing die. Pre deburr and chamfering, but deburring and chamfering did not completely remove it, at least with the Lee chamfer and deburring tool. Maybe a better tool would do better...

    Lip at case mouth after resize on 6.5 Swede cases

    I'm reloading some once fired PPU brass, and I'm getting this small lip right at the mouth of the case. It's very small, but i'm worried it might crimp the bullet in the mouth when chambered. I'm using a Lee hand press and Lee pacesetter resizing die. You can't see it in the picture, but the...

    Ruger SR 762 lower compatibility?

    I emailed Ruger, and they say that "the upper and lower are unique, and only our upper and lower will work together". That's not a surprising company line. I have no reason not to believe them; many 308 AR's are proprietary. I am still very interested in the SR 762, but now I know it isn't...

    Ruger SR 762 lower compatibility?

    I don't have the intention to swap uppers immediately (if its even possible), but having the flexibility is very attractive, and adds value in my eyes. I have looked at DSA FAL's, and while they have great ergos and reliability, they are very expensive for being the least accurate battle rifle...

    Ruger SR 762 lower compatibility?

    I'm in the process of selecting my first "battle rifle" to purchase. I like what the Ruger SR 762 brings to the table, and it has good reviews. My question is, will the SR 762 lower fit other manufacturers DI uppers? I think the SR 762 uses the SR25 pattern lower, but I don't know if the...

    Is the P226 Black Stainless a limited production variant?

    @9mmepiphany-thanks for the reply. I do believe the black stainless version is just a Nitron'd P226ST with Hogue grips and night sights. If Sig doesn't normally Nitron stainless P226's, then that is an indication that i should snatch one up:). Still wondering if anyone else has any more...

    Is the P226 Black Stainless a limited production variant?

    Hello all, I have always liked the idea of an all steel, all black P226, especially one with night sights and Hogue rubber grips, and Sig currently has such a gun in production; the P226 Black Stainless (E26R-9-SBSS). My question is, is this version likely to go out of production soon, or is...

    No more ARs left for christmas

    Why oh why did i wait. I'm going to fuel the fires of panic and go to Gander Mountain tomorrow to see what they have. I do not want to be stuck with just a WASR for the rest of my life.

    Whats on your wish list?

    There are sooo many rolls that "need" to be filled. Desire is a troubling emotion. The top of my list includes: Sig P226 classic 22 A FN SPR with a blued fluted chromoly truck axle screwed on in .260 rem Then I "need" an AR, and a battle rifle, and... What does it feel like to be...

    Who here DOESN'T own a .22lr?

    Some how I do not own a .22 yet. Surely my next firearm will be a .22lr Sig p22x. I've discovered how fun pistols are and now i NEED a .22 to become proficient without going broke.

    If you won a semi-custom 1911, would you sell it or keep it?

    In my current position, as a young firearms enthusiast, I don't have all the guns to fill all the roles that I really want to fill, so i'd probably sell it to fill some of these roles. If this opportunity came up after I was comfortable with the status of my collection, I would definitely keep...

    Whoa, good eye, that is a cool illusion. I absolutely love the blued finish. What kind grind are you going to do for the edge? Beautiful work.

    All steel, all black P226?

    I'm pretty sure there are stainless models that have a stainless frame and slide. I'm also pretty sure there are guns with alloy frames and stainless slides. I don't think there are many guns that are steel (I dont know if carbon or stainless) framed and have black ilaflon or nitron...
