    Lot of really great points in here….thanks to clarify. Yes, that is gas gun and I can pick up some fps in the bolt action. @Mike Casselton hat tip i know the arc is most Likely the better buy….but a) getting more action makers would be nice and b) most likely during a map weekend the aero...

    Target Rifle- Caliber Question

    Caliber Question… I know I know….another one. But I am seriously stuck and can use some outside perspectives. I am primarily a hunter and am looking to get a rifle that will be pretty much only used for target work. My primary range is 200 yards but I would like to take some classes in the...

    The Fix from Q

    Sorry. I am talking 300rounds in a day in a hotter setting while still maintaining accuracy. I don’t know if I want to buy a 6.5 barrel if I think I am going to want a 8.6 creed

    The Fix from Q

    How does the proof barrel do with prolonged shooting? I have the 22in creed bartlein and it’s too front heavy for my taste i got a 16in 308 in a deal and put it on but haven’t shot it. I am worried it’s two thin to do a shooting course with

    I'm looming into my first SASS rifle.

    I think for that much money you can get a better brand...make sure what kind of mags it uses. Not sure if It uses the dpms style or their property ones

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce 1-8

    Based on your options I would go nx8 because it’s on a small frame ar just to get heft and size down on your inside 100 shooting what type of shooting is it? Lpvo are not as forgiving at red dots with Some positional shooting. (One plane if options on a red dot vs multiple on scope). just...

    ATN Tico

    Why put all that time into a product to only be able to announce it at one shot show? When you can delay it enough to announce it at 2 shot shows.... https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2021/01/22/atn-tico-lt-thermal-clip-on-sight/ they announced this last year as shipping in summer. Now...

    .300 Win Mag Build

    So I have a horizon firearm rebarrel in 300 we and like it a lot. a Big question IMO is what is your comfort range to hunt. For me it’s 400-500 yards. I can shoot steel further but feel comfortable hunting there. If so, you may not need a super high dollar rifle. A good off the shelf rifle...

    Barrel Length

    Barrel length is a velocity vs maneuverability trade off. for you situation you don’t care about maneuverability but you do want max range so I would tend toward the longer side 20-24 inches. Someone posted the link earlier to show you how much velocity you are going to get with different...

    When will prices come down?

    The other aspect is fixed cost allocation. If I used to sell 10000 rounds at 50 cents that’s 5k revenue. Let’s say cost of materials is 3500 so that’s 1500 minus 1000 costs (rent, employees, etc) that’s 500 profit. Now I get 2000 rounds and cost of goods are 50% higher so 1050. If I still need...

    New Sig CROSS

    I own a fix and handled the cross at one of the gun shows before the COVID mess... The fix is better built then the cross IMO. By that i mean the machining looked nicer, the bolt felt smoother, and the cross hand guard flexed a lot more than the fix. I think the cross is going to win in terms...
