SOLD 10/22

I have had this one for awhile, so no idea on exact round count. It is still a very accurate rifle as you can see below. I picked it up the base rifle from a buddy who tried to drill out the back of the receiver for cleaning. He succeeded but it looks awful. It can’t be seen when installed in the stock. Other than aesthetics it hasn’t effected anything. I then did some upgrades.

Bolt is factory Ruger with a Volquartsen exact edge extractor. Clark Custom hammer and trigger (adjustable for over travel). Currently breaks at just under 2.5 pounds. Magpul X22 stock with a Volquartsen aluminum bedding block installed. Stock has other wise been modified to free float. Titan universal cheek rest with 2 spacers included along with sling stud and Magpul polymer rail. Barrel is a Tactical Solutions SB-X with a 16.5” overall length. Barrel is threaded 1/2-28 and weighs approximately 15 ounces. Shroud ID is approximately 1.1” and approximately 4.75” from the shoulder. This allowed my AAC Element 2 to protrude about .5”.

Tactical Solutions 15MOA rail.

Also comes with one 10 round factory magazine.

Scope is a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16x44 (MOA) with flip caps and Warne 30mm Vapor rings (low). Scope glass is in excellent condition. Polyurethane buffer and factory extended magazine release. Volquartsen automatic bolt release.

Asking $850 shipped to your FFL from an individual. OBO

Targets were shot at 50 yards using SK Standard Plus. One is 5 shots and the other is 10. If you have any questions or would like additional photos, please ask.

2nd time out with a MK20 and I'm getting pierced primers every 2-3 rounds

FN Mk20 in 6.5CM. 2nd time out with it today.

First time we shot about 50 rounds of factory Spark 142g SMK in about the same temperature. I had 1 case with a pierced primer and the rest had some sort of ejector swipe on the Peterson brass but nothing you wouldn't see with a SASS and M118LR.

Good accuracy, consistent hits at 900+, S/D was like 4.

Go out today and after 3 rounds, I get a click when pulling the trigger. Charge it, ejects a live round with no primer strike. Pull trigger again, click. Eject another round with no primer strike.

I pull the gun apart, firing pin looks fine. Reassemble, fires again without a problem. We shoot another 5 rounds and I can smell gas and gunpowder. Check the cases, 3 of the 5 have completely pierced primers. Temp is like 5 degrees from what it was last time, and still in the 50s, so definitely not hot.

Since this is the only ammo I've ever shot with this, I can only assume that this is all ammo related and the ammo is pushing the border of blowing the fucking gun up. On the other hand, WTF factory ammo does this, especially at 50 degrees? I get that its a semi and they generally are a little different from loads for bolt guns, but that is generally for cycling, not almost blowing the gun up. Had I tried this in 90+ degrees, I'm betting we would have had a bad outcome.

Has anyone had an issue with Spark ammo just being like this?

SOLD 300 Norma - Terminus Zeus - Foundation MG2 - Wrecking Ball

Hello, I purchased this 300 Norma from Dyk Rifle & Machine last year thinking I would use it at the Nightforce match in Wyoming. I believe he built 5 or 6 of these for the match. I had him build me one exactly like the one he posted. Here https://www.snipershide.com/shootin...us-zeus-foundation-mg2-wrecking-ball.7115201/

I never ended up making the match so the rifle is brand new never used. Figured I would see if any one would be interested in it. Full disclosure I did notice a couple of black specs on barrels by action real small but wanted to let you know.

Easiest 6mm

I’m finally at a place in life (age 41) where I have a few dollars and a few minutes available to focus on teaching myself to reload. My question to the Hide is… which is the 6mm cartridge that is most forgiving to the novice reloader, given the following factors:
- availability of components in 2023
- lowest recoil (wife and kids will occasionally participate)
- I will shoot at thin skinned game 400 - 600 yards possible not probable, 600-800 yards steel plates for fun

ar15 barrel quality experience

thinking about putting an AR15 together as an "accuracy" piece,say maybe to 600 yd max. prob 1/8 or 1/7 wylde. looking $300-400 max for a barrel. yes,i know bartlein,krieger and lilja are superior. price to high for budget. actually walther a bit highish. so; ballistic advantage,jp,white oak are what i have looked at so far. anyone with multiple experiences with those 3 brands? i have about everything else needed. no,i don't need to hear "you just have to spend a lot more money because i do".

Need opinion

I'm planning on going on a mountain goat hunt in Colorado with a friend for the second time and I'm looking for a good long range rifle

The first time I went I had a $300 Romanian PSL with a russian scope, now at $2500 on up, I don't think so and I want something in 308

I have been looking at the Bergara B-14 HMR rifle in 308, but is there anything lower in price that can perform as good

7mm Mag or 300 Win Mag for Hunting

I’m looking at getting a new bolt action and getting into hunting some bigger game like elk. I’ll mostly be hunting in the Western US. I’m debating between 7mm Mag and 300 Win Mag.

Right now I have a Remington 700 SPS Tactical in 308. I upgraded the trigger, stock and threaded the barrel for a muzzle brake.

I don’t mind a little extra weight of a heavier barrel but I’m wondering what my best options are in the $1000 range without glass?

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
