Re: 6.5x47 lapua out of a 20" barrel How do you like your krieger barrel? Krieger is probably who I will go with for a barrel, was thinking 20" medium palma with a 1:8 twist.

Re: 6.5x47 lapua out of a 20" barrel Thanks for the reply! 15-20 fps doesn't sound to bad, but then again you never know when you might need the extra fps.

Am going to hopefully start another project soon and wanted to know if a 20" barrel would provide good enough accuracy with the 6.5x47 lapua? I read a thread on here recently about using 6.5 lapua with shorter barrels and one guy said he had a 20" 6.5 lapua barrel coming in, but I don't believe...

Re: Rings id on nightforce scope?? Cool, thanks a lot for the info Bill! Charlie

Re: Rings id on nightforce scope?? Ya he is a SEAL operator not MARSOC (he is wearing aor1). Pic was taken in zabul province in Afghanistan during a mission with the Afghan national army to find drug facilities. Ya I thought it looked like a 2.5-10x24, I know they use it a lot on the mk12...

Was wondering what rings are being used with this nightforce nsx compact? Was also wondering if anyone knew which model compact scope this is? The site where I got this pic said it is a nightforce nsx 2.5-10x32 "old version" compact scope, but I think it looks more like a 2.5-10x24 or a 1-4x24...

Haven't found a whole lot of good info on these rifles. I was wondering what mod they are up to because mstn has a recce mod 2 upper and I'm not sure if the navy is really that far? Was also wondering if the navy navy uses them much and how far they could shoot out to? I have seen a video of one...

Re: Which build guys? Besides the rifles I'm selling just an m1 Garand and a Mauser. I just want a bad ass mil spec sniper rifle and am going to end up taking some GPS sniper courses somewhere down the road when I can afford it. Other than that I just would use it at the range.

Ok, I am selling some rifles to get money for my next build. I have changed my mind many many different times and finally think I know what I want to do but am split between two ideas; mk13 mod 5 build or mk11 mod 2 (m110) build. I used to have Remington 700 in 300wm and liked it and have shot...
