I just ordered a new lefty 24" Origin barreled action in 300 prc. I want to go with a stock this time instead of a chassis.

I am thinking of something like a Manner Night Stalker. Do any of you have any experience with this particular model? Or suggest other similar options?

As the title states, selling a Schmidt & Bender throw lever for PMII scopes.

Please DM with questions or to buy.

CROZET, ALBEMARLE COUNTY VA
02/17/2025

A man who some social media sources had described as 'just having been involved as the aggressor in a heated road rage verbal exchange' prior to this incident pulled into a Harris Teeter supermarket in Crozet, Virginia, retrieved a rifle from his vehicle, and began shooting indiscriminately at shoppers entering and leaving the crowded store at around 1:00 PM. An SUV with a retired nurse sitting inside was pumped with multiple bullets first, leaving the woman occupant in critical condition. The shooter, now identified as 28 year old Justin Barbour, then turned his rifle onto shoppers at the supermarket's entranceway. His next fusillade struck and killed a 43 year old customer leaving the store. Another shopper, an off duty federal agent, heard the sound of gunfire, drew his personal CCW, identified the active shooter and returned fire, hitting him multiple times. Barbour, the shooter, was pronounced dead on scene by arriving first responders.


The deceased would-be mass shooter, 28 year old Justin Barbour:



A primary source eyewitness account of the gunfight in the parking lot:




Moral of this story: Carry and be ready everywhere and anywhere. Also train comprehensively to make sure that not only you CAN hit what you are aiming at under stress, but you can also do so with minimum rounds fired. The armed shopper's rounds came very close to striking a couple of bystanders as he was exchanging fire with the gunman.

There is absolutely no doubt that an armed patron of the store had stopped what would have been a mass casualty and possibly hostage/standoff situation based on how eyewitnesses described the shooter's movements towards the crowded store and the fashion in which he was firing that rifle.

When a rifle has a flash suppressor or muzzle brake installed, does one's search for an OBT load require that the calculations go to the end of the barrel length only, or to the end of the muzzle device?

And is using the OBT barrel time charts and QuickLOAD calculations/predictions even of any use if the rifle in question is a semiauto?

Yes, I have seen the time/bullet travel charts for a few of them and understand that the bullet really has passed the muzzle long before the bolt starts to unlock. But I do wonder if the impulses of gas tapping and starting to pressure up the gas system (either piston OR DI) during bullet travel overpowers the chances of successfully predicting an OBT load.

Actual experiences in predicting OBT, whether successful, inconclusive or failure, are preferred.

Alternatively, experimentally-proven OCW loads out of any semi-auto are welcome. I could then do some retrospective calculations.

Thanks!

Howdy.

Hunted for this rail forever and ended up coming across two.

Wondering what's your best guess on market value, as they've been discontinued for over ten years.

Any and all feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

Best,

Did a pretty hefty search and hadn't seen any mention of the Orthos Raider S4 yet.
I've always wanted the OG Benelli M4 but seeing as how I always end up doing a shit load of mods and customizations anyway, I decided to pull the trigger on the Orthos knowing full well it's not gonna stay bone stock for long.
If anyone has one, or would like to post their own M4 (or clone) builds. I'd love to see them.

This is going to end up similar to their "Shipwreck" limited edition release...but different.
Already added the MI extended m-lok hand guard and have an SBS barrel and mag tube sitting here waiting for a Form 1 to clear.

(updated with pictures)

Mil GAP reticle VG to excellent condition, glass is great.








Aadamount caps, flip-up USO throw lever, and original box included. LT mount is not, but can be for an extra $200.

$1325 $1275 shipped CONUS, AK & HI we can talk. Prefer PP F&F, may be open to other options.

ETA trade: I need something with more magnification, 25x or more. FFP/Mil are a must, 34mm preferred. +/- a little $$ is OK.

And come to think of it, I could use a spotting scope.

Looking for an aftermarket glock 17 gen 3 slide, rmr cut
Also looking for a sig p365 xl/macro complete slide and FCU.

Selling: Leupold 172675 BX-4 Pro Guide HD 12x50 Binos. I bought these a Few months back and they are fantastic for their price point. Only selling because I won something else that’s much higher end. Comes with original packaging and carry case and such. 400$ shipped conus.

Background: My friend has a little land where we can setup and shoot distance and I've bought some steel targets and stands for this purpose. I have found them to be a little clumsy or fragile and limited in number of targets/sizes you can use until you get way up in price.

So I thought I'd make something that might satisfy some of the annoyances which were mainly: storage/transportation/ease of setup/limited target size selection/stand construction (thin steel tubes)

Attached are the pictures of what I came up with.
Stand - flat pack and made of plain carbon steel everything attached with clevis pins (1/4")
Hanger - rubber strap
Target - 6 in 1 1"-6" target in 1" increments AR500 (designed to keep center of gravity in the middle) 3/8"
Top crossbar AR500 3/8"

I have not had any of these parts cut out yet. I wanted to get feedback on the design first of both the target and the stand.

TIA

Let me know if you have a autotrickler v3 for sale. No scale needed

My buddies finally pulled the trigger on a pair of savage chassis guns which kind of lit a fire under my butt to start thinking of building one myself. Ive always loved the M2013 action but I see theyre never in stock on Badger Ordinances website. Are they discontinued? If so how hard is it to come by one? Id prefer to find a short action for 308 or 6.5 creed. I know there are plenty of other actions widely available on the interwebs but i kinda have my heart set on a AI patterened action. TIA everyone! Im new to snipershide and so far Im amazed at how awesome this community is!

If anyone thinks the Democommies learned anything from their stunning defeat… things like respect for the Constitution and get the radicals out…. Ah hahhhha…

So their vice chair is radical communist so -of deep state… never did anything in his life but show up and bray on about guns are bad…

Tells you what their future targets are. They are going full in on destroying g the 2a and putting the retard millenial radicals at the helm.

I can’t wait until they find out he has been didling kids and has a massive child porn stash. Oh wait… he is Democrat Royalty. He’ll get away with it.

I’m trying to 3D print Sunshades for my scopes. I have a few people wanting me to make them some also. So I’m thinking if I can find some way to get accurate threads for basically any scope, it’ll be a little side money help for me.

Does anyone know how to accurately measure, or where (maybe a reference chart) I can find specific thread sizes and counts of basically any thread size? I have read a little, and if I understand it correctly, I can use my mic and measure the highest points of threads for the size, but I’m stuck on the pitch/count on such fine threads. However, that doesn’t help me, because if I’m needing to cut outside threads, I need the size of the inside threads.

Any suggestions?

Hey, an industry contact from a well established manufacturer asked me today if I thought there would be interest in an M110 barrel that's LR308/DPMS gen 1 compatible. Proposed details are 1-10 twist, with a .875 gas journal and single rail steel gas block, chrome lined. The idea is to make another option that's compatible with KAC/Griffin M110 suppressors, without KAC markup, or using companies like SR25/HTX who are kinda under the radar options that are hard to get ahold of and don't have a dedicated storefront of their own.

What say you, if this popped up from a reputable manufacturer at a decent price, is this something you'd consider? What details would you change?

Note: nothing is for sale, they haven't made a single one of these, I'm working on talking them into a one-stop upgrade option

Hi folks,
I currently shoot a tikka tac a1 in 6.5cm. With 130g sierra it's pretty consistently (even with me) under 1/2 an inch with 5 round groups as long as it doesn't get too hot. So obviously I'm considering selling it and buying something else. The only rifle I'd really be interested in replacing it with is a switch caliber like the AXSR. I would want it in .308 and .300prc, my two most common bolt action calibers to shoot.

Is it insane to shoot a magnum action receiver like the AXSR with a short action cartridge in competition? Is running the bolt reasonable or are you traveling 2x as far for each round as you would in a short action only rifle? My main competitive deficiency is speed, so I'm hesitant to get something that would make cycling the rifle and staying on target even more challenging for myself.

Thanks!
