    Changing headspace dimension

    Any of you ever ran into a rifle chamber that grew a bit of headspace? The particular rifle in question is a Christensen Ridgeline 300 wsm. The fire formed brass is measuring about .003 over what was previously fired. I should mention that the previously fired brass is Norma and the more...

    Budget rangefinder

    Looking for insight into a budget rangefinder that will range 1,000 yards reliably and do angle compensation. Say sub $400? Does this exist? I currently use a Leica 1200 range master that is 10+ years old and ranging over 600 reliably is tough. Thanks for recommendations.

    Vortex diamondback spotter review

    My boys are showing great interest in using my spotter - so much so I can barely steal a peek. It's time for them to have one. I can't splurge for the big $$$. I'm interested to hear feedback from those who have used the Vortex Diamondbacks or similar scope in that class. Thanks a bunch!

    Swaro spotter twistup eyepiece came off!

    One of my boys twisted the cup up too far on my 20-60 eyepiece. I know I can send it in for repair, but still have hunting to do. I haven't fiddled with it much, but does anyone have experience fixing this?

    Ruger American Rings

    My 11 year old got a Ruger American Compact in 7mm-08 for Christmas and Santa mounted up a weaver v series 2-10×38mm. Watching the boy shoot yesterday, the scope is a bit high with the current rings. Anybody have Talley one pieces on a similar setup? Will low, or xtra low work? Thanks...

    Ruger American Barrel/Stock Contact

    Recently bought a Ruger American Compact and the stock is severely lopsided when the action screws are tightened. The barrel was touching the stock on one side when I got it, but have recently sanded it down enough to make it free-floating. Still, it looks really lopsided. Haven't shot it yet...

    I'm about to pull the trigger on this one. Before I do that, I thought I'd ask those who have used them to report on experience and what options to order. Currently I'm looking at the 8 man combo with xl stove and liner. Is the factory seam sealing a good idea. How about the carbon pole...
