    I have found a packet of salt'n'vinegar chips usually lures them in.

    Puffin liked post by Tussock On thread : The Lapua brass test
    Yesterday I bought ADI brass. I have mixed feelings about this. For a long time I have had a simple rule. If I can't get Lapua brass, I don't buy the rifle. This way reloading is easy. High end...

    Puffin liked post by Remmodel7 On thread : Project electric kontiki
    With the summer season approaching I decided it was time to have a crack at building an electric Kontiki. Most of the parts you can buy. You can make it as complicated or as simple as you like. Mine...

    Puffin liked post by sneeze On thread : 6.5-284 loads
    If you have 2217 that would defiantly be worth a try. I have an aversion to abbreviated barrels but its a personal choice. If you want velocity its a lot easier on everything with more barrel length.

    Puffin liked post by Stocky On thread : . 260 or 6.5 Creedmoor for a Model 7 build
    I'd agree 6.5x47 would be perfect in a model 7. Plenty of good quality Lapua Brass here. I would however go the creedmoor second as its still short enough to run the heavy projectiles at mag...

    Puffin liked post by Bagheera On thread : $1000-1500 hunting setup
    I would go for a better brand scope. It does matter. Look at Redfield or even an entry level Leupold. Both 100% rugged and reliable right at the bottom of their price points. 2-7x32 is good and...
