    6.8 SPC - is this normal?

    Re: 6.8 SPC - is this normal? I don't think arperformance offers the pacnor bbls anymore. His recon bbl is ER Shaw I believe. I wish they still offered the match bbls, I'd love to have one.

    6.8 SPC - is this normal?

    Re: 6.8 SPC - is this normal? Very nice group! Those Stag7s are definitely shooters. I'm in the process of putting together a 6.8 and I'm very tempted to go with that upper, I just think I want something shorter around 16-18". Anybody know if it would be possible to cut the bbl on that model...

    looking for suggestions on a 6.8 upper for hunting

    Re: looking for suggestions on a 6.8 upper for hunting If I can spend around 7-800 on the upper and get good accuracy (sub moa or better) I'll be real happy. I don't know if that is realistic?? Thanks for the link, that hunter model looks ideal. Do you have any idea how they shoot? I assume...

    looking for suggestions on a 6.8 upper for hunting

    Hey guys, as the title says I need some advice. I'd like a compact rig for carrying in the woods. Something compact and very accurate. I've heard good thing about the 20" Stag upper but I think I would rather something a bit shorter, 16 or 18". This will be my first and probably only AR so I...

    Thoughts on a .338-06?

    Re: Thoughts on a .338-06? The .338-06 has a similar bore/case ratio to the .308win, and we all know how hard it is to make a .308 shoot decent. I think it would make a great and versatile round, I've been kicking the idea around as well.

    Range Report 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands...

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... It is a center feed box magazine that replaces the factory box and follower and allows longer rounds to feed. It is extended front to back, not top to bottom. The bottom of the receiver has to be milled out slightly and the bolt stop shortened...

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... It's a factory LTR, 20" tube. I don't know what OAL you had your FTE, but at 2.968" I have around 3 grains more powder capacity than at 2.8 which has alot to do with lower pressure. It's still a stout load, I figure around 65000 psi. I...

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... Just ran the numbers and it should be around 36moa to 1000. I'll shoot some more to see what my ES/SD numbers are.

    Re: 168 Amax @ 2.968 OAL, touching the lands... I made it to the range this weekend. I had 5 rounds each of 46.0,46.3,46.6,48.0- the last was in Win brass. Conditions weren't great, wind was gusty around 20mph. The lower charges did nothing special, but again the 48g load is lights out. I'll...

    Wanted .44 mag 200gr barnes XPB start load H110 ?

    Re: Wanted .44 mag 200gr barnes XPB start load H110 ? Seating depth will make a world of difference here, as well as the action in relation to safe pressures. At 1.6" 1700 is a bit optimistic as long as that bullet is. 1.7" can get you closer but still 1550-1600 is more realistic. H110 or...

    Gunsmithing Wyatt's extended magazine box.

    Re: Wyatt's extended magazine box. I put one on my LTR in .308. I love it. No problem reaching the lands from the box now and my rifle shoots basically benchrest accuracy loaded that way. You do have to mill the bottom of the receiver and shorten the boltstop. Also use the flat follower that...
