  1. Wipeout patch out

    I've been using the Wipe Out (W/O) products since they came out and just followed the instructions. When I ran out of W/O and couldn't find it anywhere, I tried the Hoppes 9 foaming cleaner. It worked every bit as well as the W/O products. The Hoppes foaming cleaner shows the blue on the...

  2. Small shank Savage action in 6BR with a 100rd ( broke in ??? ) 1:8 twist Shilen

    Savage Model 10 24" Wilson barrel, 1-8 twist 105 Berger VLD Hunting 31 grs Varget

  3. Help me pick a ground squirrel rifle!

    The CZ 17 HMR is a great rifle. With the money you save, you can buy more ammo. I've had mine for many years and I start off with it each prairie dog season. With a suppressor you can make so many more shots before they go down. I still use my 20 VT, but I always start off with the 17 HMR.

  4. Extra protection for your airline gun case

    I've been using a plastic stretch wrap for several years now and it has worked out very well. After they're through checking the firearm, I wrap the case in the stretch wrap going over the handles and latches several times. Pitch the remainder of the wrap in my travel bag and use it again on...

  5. Seeing 17HMR Misses At 300 Yards?

    Have someone stand directly behind you and spot your shots.

  6. Savage ejection problem even after ejector and extractor upgrade

    Did you ever check on the Savage forum that someone earlier had mentioned?

  7. Savage ejection problem even after ejector and extractor upgrade

    That should be a fairly simple fix. My Savage model 10 had the same ejection issues. Check out this link; Lumley Arms I replaced the parts that come with the kit and problem was solved. The small steel ball is slightly larger than the factory and the replacement ejector spring is slightly...

  8. Front rest for a BR style XP-100

    I made this rest styled after the Bog PSR. The PSR is no longer made. It was really a good rest.

  9. Front rest for a BR style XP-100

    Hunting ground hogs is different than shooting prairie dogs. Prairie dogs being colony critters, a rotating table would be ideal. You would have many opportunities for shooting at one location before moving on to another spot. You could use a joy stick with a rear bag or a conventional type...

  10. Front rest for a BR style XP-100

    Are you going to hunt with this or just bench shooting?

  11. Remove engraving from barrel

    I recently received a Taurus Tracker 17 HMR revolver. Revolver is very accurate and I'm starting to do a few modifications to it, grips, trigger rebound spring, red dot sight, etc. One thing I would really like to do is remove the engraving of TRACKER on the side of the barrel. Anyone know...

  12. Storage bottle for powder

    Years ago, 50's & 60's for sure, powder came in metal containers with the top and bottom slightly concaved. The cap that was on the top was a metal cap. With your thumb you pushed downward in the center of the cap and it would the come off. To reseal, put the cap on and press down on the...

  13. Bolt action pistol build

    I might have overlooked it, but what caliber & barrel are you going to use?

  14. No more scrubbing! (carbon remover)

    Helmar Just another cleaner

  15. Hydro wrap

    Looks really nice. Is the stock plastic, wood, etc?

  16. Bolt action pistol build

    Looking forward to more updates on your project. You might also post this over on the Long Range Hunting forum under the Specialty Handgun Hunting.

  17. 32 v-max vs 40 v-max

    40 HP's over the Vmax 40's For me, the HP's don't splash on the shoulder area as the Vmax do. Smaller hole going in and comes out a larger hole, if it comes out.

  18. Shipping a rifle in gun case

    Invest in a better case, I have the same case and only use it to take the rifle in the truck on a short trip. The type of latches on that case are a POS. The case is very flimsy and not made for heavy duty use that baggage handlers give it. There are better cases on the market. When you...

  19. Savage Model 10 223 Remington Ejection Issues

    Here is a pretty good write up at Savage Shooters on ejection issues and replacement parts. These two companies sell the parts you need, Kinney's Shooting Supply & Lumley. I went with the Lumley. Easy to install solved my problem.

  20. Recessed Crown Question

    I was reviewing some articles on the main website here and came across the rifle below with a recessed crown. The article didn't give any reason for the recessed crown, but I got more curious about it. Could really find a reason for it being recessed as deep as it looks. Is there a reason...
