    Used Rem 700 ADL Feeding Problems

    You should stretch the spring until it's noticably longer. This might be a magazine box binding issue. Take all the bullets out of the magazine. Then with your thumb, work the follower and spring up and down slowly. Feel for the follower catching on anything, side of the magazine, feed ramp...

    How accurate at 300 yards

    @Flatlander50, what is your profession if you don't mind me asking? The only people I know who can shoot anywhere near 6" at 300 yards offhand are surgeons.

    Used Rem 700 ADL Feeding Problems

    Try stretching the follower spring. Take it in your hands and just pull on it gently. Try not to bend the ends of the spring. I've had success doing this on a few Savage blind magazines.

    Athlon or Burris for my 308

    I hear good things about Burris and Athlon but if I were buying a scope at that price and magnification I would buy the SWFA 3x15 with MIL adjustments or a used Burris LRHS. Search the forum and you'll find lots of support for SWFA scopes. If you like Burris, skip the Veracity and get a used...

    Help me decide on Tarptent Double Rainbow

    Please disregard my post about Dyneema. I was excited that you found a killer deal on the Dyneema Tarptent Double Rainbow. It being Silnylon changes things. I would definitely suggest the Big Agnes Copper Spur 2P. I've slept close to 150 nights in my 2019 Big Agnes Copper Spur. It's held up to...

    Help with Accuracy issue before big hunt

    Two things come to mind. 1. You must have gotten the barrel really hot. 25 rounds in 30 minutes is quite a bit too many rounds in a short period of time for the thin barrel on a Tikka. Two five round groups in 30 minutes with a thin barrel is better to manage heat. 2. The adjustments on your...

    Worst thing to ever happen to elk hunting

    Some phones and apps allow you to remove the metadata. There's also some free/open source programs for removing metadata. Lastly, some websites, like Facebook, remove the metadata at the time of upload. Great post by the way. People can find the exact location a picture was taken if the...

    Investing after a home sale. Where to put the proceeds?

    Do you have a CFP? Do you have a CPA? Having a conversation with both would give you a much better idea of what to do with the money. If I were in your shoes, I'd look for a way to minimize how much I'm paying Uncle Sam in taxes.

    I Drank The Form Kool-Aid.

    IIRC, Form likes the 77gr Sierra TMK. For cheap reloading and a decent all around bullet, I like the 75gr Speer Gold Dot.

    They must've used a worn out reamer from the trash can for that barrel. Send it back to Savage. They'll fix it.
