Rocksett is not really stronger than blue Loctite, which is why it came off.

Long shot, but if you want to sell the barreled action let me know.

That would make it more difficult for selling it…. But I’ll take it into consideration.

There’s a lot of money tied up into the stock, having the barreled action fully bedded, $325, the surgeon rifles bottom metal that’s another $275, custom paint job $175. It adds up quick.

If someone on here is interested in the Manners stock please let me know.

Thanks

Yeah I’m going to be in Whidbey so a decent drive, hoping to see if I can’t find something in the MT Baker National forest area

You will get a lot further and faster if you immerse yourself in groups of local shooters. They already know everything you don’t about the area. If you pass the on-boarding process it’s a go. If not, it will take years.

I built two M85 rifles from cast receivers (and still have two more receivers), one for my oldest son and one for me. They are both chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. If doing it now, I think I would go with a 6mm Creedmoor.

Going to disagree about the scope mounts. I took steel picatinny rails, cut them to the length of the receiver then machined down the part of sides so it would fit between the ears on the receiver. I machined the bottom of the rail so would give a 20 MOA elevation. While doing this I left a tab on the bottom of the rail that shoulders against the recess in the receiver to help secure the base from moving under recoil. I then drilled and tapped the receiver to screw the base down.

Doing this lets us use any scope ring we want for height and tube diameter. While not original to the M85, it fits our needs very well. Of course it does mean drilling and tapping the receiver but this was OK for us.

I agree on the trigger, they are great. Able to adjust down to about 2 lbs and with the trigger shoe, it behaves as a two stage trigger.

“Only”

LoL.. yeah, the Dinar (or whatever they call their currency over there), but that’s still a lot of scratch and half the bill is a couple bottles of wine!

The LHT 4.5-22 is the least bang for the buck scope I've come across so it's on a rifle I rarely use.

The Athlon Ares BTR G3 2.5-15×50 is the best I've come across for the price as far as hunting goes. If this had daylight bright illume I'd rate it as good enough that I'd put the thought out of my mind of buying any other scope for my use case regardless of price.

I got tired of spending thousands more for very small differences, or even compromised optically, and I have/ had/ or been behind, that my money is better spent elsewhere into other places than rifle scopes.

That could change if a scope comes out that fits my criteria almost perfectly but none so far yet.

Also I'm picky so why bother spending $4000 unless it has my required attributes.

The funny thing is that his first wife (who is worth plenty now) was actually really good looking. Great all-American looking lady.

He dumped her for a Kardashian wanna-be with more bolt-on plastic than a tuner car in Chinatown and ersatz lips straight off a carp.

To be fair, a first wife’s beauty is irrelevant when she decides decent sex is over. The one chasing billion$ will try a lot harder. Marrying her is ridiculous though. Just proves $$ doesn’t fix stupid.

Bump.

Why do so many male leftist leaders including Mark Carney have the thin faced large round bulging eyes look? It’s uncanny how often I notice this. Like they are female jap underage porn manga characters.

Thank you. I just ordered a pair. Appreciate it

Hit with a small butane torch ("kitchen cooking torch") briefly until it melts. Remove with wrench.

For rifles that have diving boards (cause I might run my WMLRF on them) I run Arisaka offsets with an Aimpoint Acro. If the rifle isn't setup for a WMLRF then I run an Acro at 12:00 since it's easier to get behind under nods. As a few others have said, having an enclosed red dot is nice if/when you're out in shitty weather.

What's the procedure to remove the #272 red loctite?

Incase you use multiple muzzle devices

Do you still have the one-piece mount?

Curious, whats causing the wear on the back of the bolt? None of my rifle tl3s or origins have that wear

That's what we have in the camper. Makes good coffee! There are a couple (that I'm aware of) drip machines that don't use plastic that contacts the water. Moccamaster & Simply Good Coffee.

Dripolator is all stainless steel with bakelite handles. Put ground coffee in the basket cover then add hot water and you have a pot of drip coffee no grounds or paper filters.
