This is on the bottom of the forum pages, 2014? I lurked about for multiple years before ever joining in 2013.

I purchased a M5 Hawkins hunter mag and bottom metal but the GT case rides to low in the back. What mags are you guys using with the GT that will work with Hawkins bottom metal? I prefer a hunting type mag. Low profile.
Thanks

Forgotten Weapeons did a bit on this.
I've never messed with a Bullpup, I know triggers leave alot to be desired.

Been thinking about something different like BRN 180 bit maybe the Hellion is something I'll look at.

Thoughts?

I'm looking into getting a scope for my 22" 6.5 creed that I will mainly be using as a hunting rifle when I don't need a 300 win mag. I am trying to find scopes under $400 or so that have exposed turrets, a mil based reticle with at least .5 mil graduations, and sub 30ish ounces. I don't really care about sfp or ffp because I'm looking at a magnification range of roughly 4-16 or 3-15. I'd prefer a 30mm tube as well.

This process has been out for around 30yrs now. Wondering what you all think about this. Does it help accuracy and/or it snake oil? Like to hear your experiences with this process with rifle and shotgun barrels.

Got an email from Powder valley that they are "blowing out " ammo this weekend. Figured I would pass it along for what its worth.

I’ve been wanting a light weight magnum for a while and I have a hunt coming up so I figured why not put together a new rifle. This is the first real “hunting trip” I’ve had time to go on in over 10 years so I said screw it and built a second rifle.

Huge thanks to Crown Ridge Barrel works for knocking out the barrels fast as hell and Jon Beanland for helping out by getting these two bedded in 24hrs.

Potentially looking at changing my reloading setup, and after peoples feedback.

I've got a Bridgeport and full-size drill presses but in the market for a micro/miniature drill press for small work. Quick google search returns what looks like a bunch of cheap junk but I figure there has to be something quality out there?

I know the Bog tripod is somewhat popular on the budget options. I wanted to gauge interest in a possible conversion kit to turn it into a ball head with the death grip like shown in the image. The idea is you buy the kit that comes with everything and just replace a few parts and you then have a ball head option. If there is any interest at all obviously it wouldn't be for a kit that cost $400 so I am trying to keep a budget option but equal quality to the original tripod.

Up on the list to send to a new home is a Sig Cross in 6.5 creedmoor, selling only to fund another build. Come with original box and mag from sig , Harris Bipod and upgraded Area 419 bolt knob.
1250.00 shipped with thread protector or
1350 shipped with the current muzzle brake.

Aero just recently posted this…I’m interested to see what comes of it.

*Edit*: Aero has now announced that the SABR is coming soon (TBD), is a 700 action with Savage-style small shank barrel nuts for interchangeable barrels, and will be selling the action for sub 1K and the chassis for sub 1.1K.

As a lefty, the illumination knob blocking the bolt at top rotation always ruined S&B for me. Looks like they finally listened! Updated P5FL with center dot and TREMOR 5 reticles too.

I bought this scope to give mils a try, I think I'm going to stick to MOA. It's in excellent condition and it's only been on the range, never in the field. Has some slight finish marks where the scope slid during zero in a Spuhr Mount. Ended up being the mount that caused it. The Spuhr was replaced under warranty but I never remounted the scope. I figure this has maybe 10 rounds fired with it.

I'm not looking for trades right now unless you have a new in the box Seekins Havak Bravo, green in 6.5 PRC (kid wants one).

First, "I'll take" posted here gets it. PM's don't count. This avoids any misunderstandings.

SOLD shipped to lower 48 or SOLD local around Surprise, AZ. PP is ok if you pay the fees or a money order is fine.

WTS Tangent Theta 5-25x56 with the Gen 2XR
Glass is perfect and scope is excellent
Comes with everything from the factory plus a set of Seekings Rings
$3200 PayPal F&F or Venmo

Is any one attaching padding / covering to your cheek weld / rest area ? And if so , what are you using ?

Thank you

This is really cool. I wnat it.

Not bad enough to join up at 72 but I want one.

30 Caliber 245 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target Rifle Bullet​

Berger’s 30 caliber 245 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target is heavyweight addition to the successful Long Range Hybrid Target (LRHT) product line. The 245 Grain LRHT’s are born from a partnership with US Elite Forces. The objective the 245’s achieved is to increase long-range target hit percentage at 1,500+ meters. Optimized for use in large capacity cartridges such as the 300 Norma Magnum, 300 PRC, 300 Remington Ultra Magnum, and others, the 245 Grain LRHT is a heaviest-in-class solution for the longest of 30 caliber target and tactical applications.

The 30 caliber LRHT boasts a high BC, jump-tolerant hybrid ogive profile that is Doppler Radar verified with less than 1% BC variation. A high Ballistic Coefficient is important for any long range shooter, however, shot-to-shot BC consistency is the most critical aspect when engaging targets beyond 1,500 meters.

Hello all new to the forum. I have gotten in my head that I want an AI rifle. If I go new I have decided on a New AT. But I have also been cruising GunBroker and found two that might be worth the bids. One is a Mk1 .308 and looks pretty decent but no history so maybe a new barrel, I also found an AT LE in 308. My decision I have to make is, while I may be able to get either of these cheaper than a new one, not by much. I'm wondering if I should just spend the extra to get brand new. I'll post some pictures and prices below.

Mark 1.
Is starting at 3000
But it has seen some use.
I attached some pictures I asked the seller for
