Re: Kitchen Knife Sharpening Experiment

So, I have been trying different sharpening techniques on my cheap kitchen knives and have come to a strategy that I hope will start producing consistently good results. Hey Scandi, I’ve found sharpness is in the eye of the beholder. Ah, hahaha! With cheap stainless knives you’ll likely find the mo...

Re: The Last Gun You Bought

Hehehe.....I hear ya buddy. It’s a hole I came very close to falling into, Paul. Many years ago I looked at high end actions with custom chambers, turning case necks to fit, high end barrels, etc. etc. and so glad I didn’t take the jump for a few reasons. Cost aside and I’m fortunate enough to have...

Come on, guys! Let's all gather 'round the fire, whittle some marshmallow sticks with our Militaries and PM 2s, and sing 'Kumbaya'! 🙂 Jim That’s plain stupid, Jim!

Re: What do you think of the US Army going to the Sig XM5 6.8x51?

Hahaha! That looks like a libertard shooting it without the pins to show how dangerous the rifle is! It's a wonder the idiot wasn't hurt. Hey Doc, I’ve only seen pictures of AR-15’s and know absolutely nothing about them other than they’re chambered in .223 Rem. and are a semi-auto(?). The only mil...

Re: The Last Gun You Bought

Bloke, just curious buddy, but was that a PTG Reamer you bought from Brownells all those years ago? (Pacific Tool & Gauge) Hi Paul, I couldn’t say for sure other than it’s a quality item and I’m near certain it’s High Speed Steel. Had you asked earlier I may have been able to offer more info as...

Re: The Last Gun You Bought

Wow, Bloke! Hey Paul, I dare say you’re right mate and scopes like most things evolve and get better and possibly cheaper than their older counter parts. When I was younger I never actually put any true thought into scopes and here in Oz they were and still are an expensive item. I’ve only ever bee...

Speaking of kook salesmen in the shop... Hey Mac, I laughed reading your post. Read on and I’m tipping you’ll laugh too. :winking-tongue About twenty years ago I bought a rather rare (here at least) new Stainless Steel, Remington 700, .220 Swift with a fairly nice walnut stock.

Re: The Last Gun You Bought

Hey gang, … Hey Paul, I haven’t heard of the scopes you mention but that’s neither here nor there but there’s a lot to be said for quality optics. I’ve been happy enough with middle of the road Leupold scopes and had a .338 Win Mag break the reticle in Burris. The last scope I bought (for a CZ 527,...
