2012年1月22日 · Yes, Whitworth was kind enough to send me a link to the Carpenter Steel site a while back and I read up on the 465 steel used in the SRH cylinders. It looks to be extremely strong and durable. That's why I was wondering if the extra metal in the BFR cylinder (5-shot) gave it more strength than the SRH (6-shot).

2025年2月24日 · Also once hunted with a long-time Montana outfitter who uses a .375 H&H for his back-up rifle when guiding elk-hunting clients in the Bob Marshall Wilderness. I asked him if that was due to the many grizzlies in the Bob--but he said no, it was to finish off bull elk gut-shot with client's brand-new .338 Winchester Magnums.

2025年1月24日 · Buying used will get you better value. And you can probably resell it for what you paid for it when you finally figure out that there is a different bike that suits you much better than the entry level model you settled for because you just didn't have enough experience to know which one to choose to start out. So resist the urge to buy brand new.

2025年3月15日 · Agreed. I went to the range last spring and an older gentleman was sighting in his walmarx 410 shotgun. I forget the brand, but he said it was less than $200. He had 410 shells loaded with Tungsten, and was sighting in at 40 yards.

2025年3月7日 · We were buying Tilamook brand for a long time. It's a better brand out west. We tried Walmart's store brand six months ago, and it's prtty darned good. Their Pepper Jack is actually better than Tilamook's and 20-25% cheaper. Buy good cheese and a decent knife. Problem solved.

2025年3月9日 · Over the ensuing years various fellows brought me Remington bolt guns to do minor work, but I did note a trend of decreasing quality control, until finally a fellow brought me a brand new 700 of one model or another in 2007, that had the most dismal accuracy I …

2025年3月4日 · When I was a very new police officer, before I became a trooper, I had a guy in a state law enforcement vehicle in front of me look like he was driving drunk. Seemed odd, as it had state LE plates, so I followed it. Sure enough, he drove the pattern. So I stopped the truck and the guy was a brand inspector, hammered drunk.

2025年3月20日 · What brand and power would you put on a all weather ruger 22 hornet? I used a Burris FFII 3-9x with a Ballistic Plex reticle on my former 22 Hornets firing VMax bullets. It worked good on shots on ground squirrels and PDs out to around 200 yards, although sometimes I wanted more magnification.

2025年3月4日 · Got a 2016 brand new platinum for over $60k. Needed cam phasers/timing chains, etc at 100k. AC compressor and waterpump also had slow leaks at that time. Also had some sort of intermittent Turbo issue.Total repairs would have been $8-12K. Traded for pennies on a toyota instead of repairing.

Mounted a couple of brand new Leupolds on rifles yesterday. Ran them through the entire travel and evaluated their performance on the board. The Mark 4 M5A2 had 20 Mils of elevation available from a 100 yard zero. Return to zero was perfect. Click values slightly off but excellent.
