    Any Model 70 shooters? Need bullet recs

    I don't put a whole lot of stock in factory ammo. Not that factory ammo is bad, it's just that a rifle's real potential often doesn't truly come out until you handload for it. When I do actually find a factory load that shoots well in one of my rifles, I consider myself to be pretty lucky...

    Any Model 70 shooters? Need bullet recs

    One other thing - check the barrel to make sure that it's free-floating. If it's touching, try shimming the forward part of the action until it isn't and try shooting it again. Part of a business card or the plastic tab that keeps bags of bread closed can be used as shims. If accuracy improves...

    Any Model 70 shooters? Need bullet recs

    It could be something as simple as a barrel harmonics problem with the can mounted. Shooting the rifle with the can removed will at least tell you if that's the issue. Also, gun manufacturers spend about what, $15 per barrel? Not every rifle that comes out of the factory will be a shooter. As...

    Any Model 70 shooters? Need bullet recs

    A couple of ideas: Measure the distance to the lands; it tends to be long in factory M70's. If it is, consider changing out the mag box and follower to one from a 7mm STW or similar so that you can seat the bullets out further. You'd also have to shorten the bolt stop if you do this. Try...

    Opinions on KUHL gear?

    In my experience, the Kuhl pants have held up every bit as well as Carhartt blue jeans. I'm not sure about the "dad" comments, as they were originally designed for active folks who like to hike, etc., so things like freedom of movement and breathability seem to be inherent in their designs.

    Leica Geovid off a tripod?

    I have the Outdoorsmans bino hand, Leica Stabilite, and both the polymer and aluminum RRS Cinch. Given my druthers, I'd choose the Outdoorsmans bino stud over all of them. But seeing as that's not an option with Geovids, those other ones all work decently enough. The Leica Stabilite does offer...

    Opinions on KUHL gear?

    Comfort and durability are my primary concerns, and Kuhl Radikl and Revolvr shorts and pants are about all I wear for street clothing. Some of their pants and shorts have mesh pockets, which I really don't like. The above two have normal cloth pockets, as well as utility pockets for your cell...

    Kuiu 15% & free shipping code?

    If the item is included in the current sale, you can't use the coupon on top of it. I know, I tried. :mad: Actually, you can try, but if the item is already discounted more than 15%, you'll end up being charged the higher price.

    New 15x56 Binos

    Sure, no problem, let me know. Whether you go with Conquests or Meostars, I think you'll be blown away by the quality of the glass. I just got a pair of Conquest HD 8x32's, and to my eyes they're nicer than an older pair of 8x30 SLC's that I own. We're living in the Golden Age of optics.
