      Scope base on new Model 70

      I had the same issue, had to cut the screw, or it protruded into the locking lug recess and prevented the bolt from closing. Sometimes you have to cut the front one as well, as it can bottom out on the barrel thread, and won't tighten all the way. I usually epoxy bed the bases on the...

      I anticipate unanticipated troubleahead for 2A...

      Unpopular opinion I'm sure, but: I've shot with many military "trained" shooters, and many of them are the worst offenders.

      Load tracking

      I have been using it for years, and works for me.

      Rifle In Motor Vehicle ?'s

      I'm sure it was just a misunderstanding. And purely conjecture on my part. I was wrong, and anything I ever post on this board in the future will be wrong as well. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.

      Rifle In Motor Vehicle ?'s

      Here's my actual experience, not "Conjecture": My partner and I were working on a job site in MoCoMD. Thought I had heard a couple shots in the strip of woods between there and the next neighborhood over, but wasn't 100% sure. Noisy job site, using nail guns ourselves, etc. Dismissed it...

      So... cops only shoot people who point guns at them? GTFO.

      Rifle In Motor Vehicle ?'s

      So it is "technically" legal, but you and I both know it's not allowed, and if you try it you know how you will be dealt with. So the fact that something is legal is kind of pointless if you'll be shot for doing it, isn't it?

      Rifle In Motor Vehicle ?'s

      I'm trying to imagine arguing to a Maryland cop that what I was doing was "perfectly legal" as I was shot, then arrested.

      Rifle In Motor Vehicle ?'s

      Yeah, it is definitely hard to prove a crime that hasn't been commited, LOL. Strictly for combatting poaching? Perhaps that's a good excuse for them to use, I mean hey- a lot of people seem to buy it. However- Given the fact that no one is allowed to carry a loaded gun (long or short)...

      Rifle In Motor Vehicle ?'s

      Out West you can roll down the road with a loaded AR15 on the seat, looking for coyotes to shoot. (Or just because you feel like it). Perfectly legal, no one cares. Just can't shoot em from the road or the truck, gotta clear the fence line, if there is one. Maryland gun laws suck. But...

      I have walked into Total Wine....

      I haven't read the whole thread so pardon if this has already been mentioned- Buy I saw Flying Dog Brewery had a rally/ event for Trone last year at their brewing facility in Frederick. https://www.facebook.com/davidjtrone/posts/230321713998496 Their "The Truth" IPA was one of my favorite...

      HQL traing exemption question.

      But you know how it is, most everywhere people are actually allowed to carry, I don't feel like I need to!

      HQL traing exemption question.

      While I am against gun registration on principle- there are no secrets. If someone (with the power of .gov behind them) sets their sights on any one of us, they can find out all they need to know. That we come here to MDS. That we buy stuff, order stuff online, if you took your phone with you to...

      MDS Long Range Class with Ed Shell

      Kari only got a couple pics, she was glued to the spotting scope most of the time. Both days were really hot and humid, and that fishtailing headwind made it a real bear to give you guys good wind calls at times. Great to see you guys again. Not just the shooting part either- always a...

      Pressure signs and older brass

      What about the edges of the primers, still radiused? or flattened, or blown out to the edges of the primer pocket? My Winchesters have a bit of an oversized firing pin hole, even milder loads crater just a little bit. If you really think pressure may have increased, check for carbon build up...
