    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Re: Idea! Official DTA SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Th Bringing this post back from the dead... Does anyone have a subsonic .308 load that they use the DTA SRS that they would like to share? What are you using for bullet and powder? How does the SRS platform like subsonic loads?

    Gunsmithing Looking for a smith to rethread a barrel

    I'm looking to have my Desert Tactical SRS 308 barrel rethreaded from 3/4x24 to 5/8x24 to accept a muzzle device to attach a suppressor. No one seems to make any for that thread pitch for this can. Any recommendations on someone that can get this perfect, straight and safe?

    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    Re: Idea! Official DTA SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Th Great shooting. I wish I had that much space to air out my SRS. What kind of ammo were you using? Handloads? Care to share the recipe? It looked like you had a little sticky bolt lift. Are they pretty hot loads?

    Suppressors Swappable Supressor for the DTA SRS

    I'd like a supressor that I can use on my .308 SRS barrel (which is threaded 3/4 x 24) that I can also use on my AR-15s (threaded 1/2 x 28) for 55.6 and 300 whisper. I can't for the life of me find any company that makes a 7.62 can and 2 adapters that would make this work. I'd rather not have...

    Tightening up my .243

    Re: Tightening up my .243 As an update, I called Browning. The guy I talked to seemed to think this gun was targeted at varminters and there was no plans to offer a tighter barrel twist in the future.

    Tightening up my .243

    I have a .243 that I use for Whitetail hunting. It's a browning X-Bolt and I really like the way the rifle shoots. However, they only offer it in 1:10 twist. I've had a ton of trouble getting antyhing heavier than 85gr to stabilize and give me good accuracy in. I guess they had this rifle...

    DTA New Products & Shot Show Pics

    Re: DTA New Products & Shot Show Pics I'm very curious on the weight of the Stealth Hunter. I've thought many times of bringing my SRS into the woods and just said screw it because I was too lazy to hump it. The standard SRS chassis doesn't even weigh that much, it's the barrels. Looking...
