    WTS SOLD - Ruger 77/17 All Weather 17HMR

    SOLD!! I guess I should have asked more for it? Well, we both will have a nice Christmas now - Happy Holidays!!! Now, we all know that Santa doesn't get his present until after Christmas. But sometimes he has to git it while the gittin' is good. I want to finish a project that I've been...

    Ruger Frontier

    Mine is .358 Win (checkered). After its first deer, I named the rifle "Bangflop". Wouldn't mind finding a SS .308 Frontier one day and threading the muzzle for my can.

    Ruger 44 carbine scope base

    I bought a Picatinny rail blank from Brownell"s and had Cole's in Clearwater, FL machine a custom base for me. With Hornady LeverEvolution rounds I get <3" groups at 100 yds. The crazy thing is... I paid $250 plus the cost of the rail blank to have the base fabricated. I only paid $250 for...

    m77 action screw 95 inch lbs.......

    As well as a .358Win. The laminated stock on my Frontier split from just this issue after about 20 rounds. Ruger swapped out for a new stock for free. I set my F.A.T. driver at max torque (65 in/lbs) and all is well.

    first range trip with new 10/22 magnum

    All the Interwebz wisdom says to remove the left side extractor on the two-extractor models, and many suggest replacing the right-side one with the ExactEdge version. When you lay an ExactEdge next to the stock extractor, the difference in geometry is obvious. For $18, I figured "why not?".

    Suppressed mark II target mohel?

    Gemtech repositioned my front sight, threaded the barrel so well you can't see the joint at arms' length, and made a thread protector out of a Ruger barrel blank. They even lined up the cut with the edge of the first letter of the safety warning roll stamp. Top-notch job, and I'm pretty sure...

    first range trip with new 10/22 magnum

    Several years ago a friend sold me a NIB unfired Ruger 10/22 magnum. I say "sold", but it really was more like dangling crack in front of an addict - I did what I had to do and sold myself out for that fix. The rifle sat untouched in my safe until last weekend when I pulled it out and set it...
