SOLD Winchester 70 Coyote .243

I'm listing for sale a very nice Winchester model 70 "Coyote" in .243. I am the second owner of this rifle and have owned it for about 5 years now, I have probably only put 50 rounds through it or less since then. I don't know the total round count but judging by its condition, maybe a couple hundred rounds fired at most. It has some handling marks and cosmetic flaws, but nothing I would consider major or anything that affects function at all. I've tried to picture the flawed areas best I can with the photos. The last time I shot it, I had fired some handloads for another 243 I worked up and this one was shooting them pretty well. If I remember right, just under 1" at 100 yards. The trigger is heavy though and could use some work. Someone that has the time to tinker with it will have this rifle shooting great. I am asking $950 shipped for the rifle with Leupold bases and rings (lapped). I would sell rifle and VX-3 3.5-10x40 duplex for $1350 shipped. FFL must accept from individual. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks for looking!

Edited to add: Decided since I had the rifle out I'd take her for one last spin. shot a few rounds of hornady 95 gr and the results were not impressive, but the barrel was clean and may not have been fouled right away. After the Hornady I sent 4 of my handloads downrange and was able to print a pretty impressive 4 shot group at 100 yards.

Sling question: BFG / vickers padded sling on a bolt action - cross body & muzzle up?

I can’t seem to find the answer to two simple questions. And BFG is closed right now.

I like to carry bolt action rifles cross-body, muzzle up. Like this (not me):
1745024567876.jpeg


1) So will a padded BFG / Blue Force Gear / Vickers / VCAS (all different names for the same damn sling) work just fine? I’m 99.9% sure all I have to do is to attach the padded bit to the rifle’s front for it to be comfortable.

2) I’m less sure of this: with the padded bit attached to the rifle’s forend, can one still adjust length of this “reversed” BFG sling while the gun is over the shoulder (like in the pic)? Muzzle up, either cross-body or not.

See, I’m not sure if the length mechanism will work “backwards”; the opposite of a military muzzle down and over your stomach carry in which this sling is typically used.

5.56x45 muzzle device questions

Quick Version
I currently use a birdcage type flash hider (came with the gun). It is not an A2 and has an open bottom. It's open all the way around except for the tines.

I'd like to try the benefit of a comp or brake. Do I want something like the WarComp Closed-Tine with the ports in the top that keeps the flash-hider function, or do I want a comp with more holes on the top, or do I want more of a muzzle brake device like the Surefire SOCOM muzzle brake?

More detail
I don't have actual experience with muzzle devices other than a birdcage flash hider. Before I go on a muzzle-device safari and build a costly collection of them in a drawer, I'd like to get feedback on the experience of others with 5.56x45 in particular. Because 556 doesn't have a lot of recoil, I anticipate the effects brakes to be subtler but there is still plenty of gas to drive a comp or brake.

I understand there are flash suppressors that cut bright muzzle flash. There are compensators that blow gas up to push the muzzle down, counteracting muzzle rise. And there are muzzle brakes that blow gas to the sides or back to either reduce the gas pushing the rifle backward or possibly even pull the rifle forward against recoil generated when the bullet and powder mass is ejected.

Flash hiders reduce flash that can interfere with the sight picture and cause a more visible signature. Flash isn't desirable, but it isn't an issue in daylight, competition, recreational shooting or most situations where one isn't anticipating return fire.

Compensators should tame muzzle rise. While 556 doesn't generate a lot of recoil, the sight picture is affected. If any magnification is used in the optic, the movement is also magnified. Even slight muzzle movement also requires time for the muzzle to return on target which would increase split times in competition. I imagine that lateral movement compensated by compensators is more disturbing to sight picture than the longitudinal movement straight-back that brakes attenuate.

Muzzle brakes primarily keep the gas ejected from the muzzle from pushing the rifle backward, instead directing it out to the sides. This is understood to be particularly annoying to people adjacent to the shooter's position. While this straight-back gas thrust portion of recoil itself should not disturb sight picture, it is inevitably directed into the shooter who himself does not recoil straight back but bends in his soft tissue and at joints resulting in angular and lateral movement.

I understand that some people find comps and brakes bothersome because of the blast that can be directed toward the shooter. Other people note that the blast is less often directed backward, but more to the sides. There are some brakes that actually direct gas backward. The brakes that direct gas to the sides are more problematic when there are reflective surfaces in those directions.

I also understand there are suppressors, and a lot of muzzle devices are suppressor attachment points.

I currently use a birdcage type flash hider (came with the gun). It is not an A2 and has an open bottom. It's open all the way around except for the tines. My use is for training and civic duty. I have better options for home defense.

I'd like to try the benefit of a comp or brake. Do I want something like the WarComp Closed-Tine with the ports in the top that keeps the flash-hider function, or do I want a comp with more holes on the top, or do I want more of a muzzle brake device like the Surefire SOCOM muzzle brake?

Suppressors TBAC Magnus

Looking for real world input/experience. I am going to buy 2 suppressors from TBAC. I am going to run the SR brake on 5 bolt rifles and swap the 2 suppressors between the 5.

I am torn between a combination of Magnus S, Magnus S RR, Magnus, and Magnus RR.

Looking for experience regarding whether the RR is worth the length and cost in terms of recoil reduction vs the non RR and if the noise increase on the RR negates the suppression

Sling Studs to Flush Cups

Many factory rifles come with the old sling studs, which I completely hate and have utterly no use for. To me it's like drilling a wood screw into the stock for no reason. All of the good slings I use for competition are on QD. Only my hunting rifles have slings that live on them where I don't mind these studs.

In the past I've removed the studs, drilled out the holes, and installed GroveTec flushcups. This way I can use the rifle for silhouette and off hand matches with a sling, but also remove it for Base Class positional shooting.

My LGS that focuses on ARs found these:

I'd never seen them before, but they're a great idea if you have no use for sling studs and they require no modification to the gun. I ordered a pair, and my only reservation is that they may annoy me, flopping around, went the sling is off...but we'll see.
