[quote]Burris Signature Z-rings. Before using Signature rings, I lapped the rings. Why do you lap rings with plastic inserts?[/quote] I need to make a clarification. Using Burris Signature Z rings w/ the inserts, there is NO need to lap the rings. Prior to using the Signature rings, I used to ...

[quote]what about a new rifle with picatinny rail on top? Looking at the Ruger American Gen2 Ranch for my boy and it's got a rail. What QD or Attachment device do you recommend that holds a good zero? [/quote] I usually use a Weaver one piece multi-slot base, but sometimes I have to deviate. When...

That's good info and pretty much how I do it except: -I don't put Loc-tite at the bottom of the scope base -I don't put nail polish on the top of the scope ring screws. -I always a multi-slot one piece base/Picatinny rail and Burris Signature Z-rings. Before using Signature rings, I lapped the r...

I don't know who Tommy Tucker is and it doesn't sound like I should bother trying to find out. :lol:...
I only watched 2-3 minutes, but it felt like a nerd talking himself up, trying to impress a pretty girl on what he thinks is a date. I would like to see a picture of her. OTOH, she wasn't real smooth, instead coming off like she was going down a list of questions....
If you change your mind and decide on Clark's and you like Ruger 10/22's, ship it there instead of delivering it yourself. If you go to Clarke's you'll certainly notice the many 10/22's. Last time I was there a few years go, they had 12-15 10/22's. They were all very nice, but they were all >$1200. ...
That clip was the first thing to come to mind when I saw "Albanian" in the title. :lol: :lol: Hilarious show and great clip. ...

[quote]The 6.5 CM has more power to it than the 6.5 Grendel, and I wreck deer with my 6.5 Grendel.[/quote] In addition to bullet placement, another key thing is using a suitable hunting bullet. Yeah, the CM has more energy than does the Grendel, but foot pounds of energy/power is not what kills dee...
[quote]6.5 creedmoor is a great deer caliber and a great long range caliber. It isn't a laser, it does not shoot flat, it does have great ammo avaikability and price, and it does have excellent rifle options.[/quote] I agree entirely w/ one caveat: one must using a proper hunting bullet for the CM ...
I feel your pain. I have an XP 100 chambered in 284 Winchester w/ a muzzle brake. Touching off 58 gr of powder in a 16" barrel w/ a brake will really wake you up! I always had to be sure my cap was on tight. Amongst all my handguns, including some that have a Magnaport muzzle, the 284 w/ the muzzle ...
[quote]and to be perfectly honest I didn’t notice any increased noise from the muzzle brake[/quote] You'll notice the difference if you're not wearing plugs or muffs. ...

[quote]If you want your son to have a heritage rifle to give to his kids, skip the plastic[/quote] If you want to get your son a 10/22, I wouldn't worry about its plastic magazine. I've got four 10/22's and an old 77/22 that all use the same magazines. I've never had a problem w/ the hard plastic c...

[quote]spend the coin and get a 77/22[/quote] I love my 77/22 and have a lot of fond memories of squirrel hunting w/ it. Having said that, it would not be my recommendation for a learner 22LR. Since the 77/22 was discontinued some years ago, buying one on the used market would be expensive. I like ...
