Anyone know how effective the Badger SLICK protective filter works in bright sunlight in terms of reducing glare compared to a Killflash ARD or even duct tape with a slit cut through it?

Nope...just used a standard nylon brush and brass jags with patches per break in instructions.... Even a brass brush or jb bore paste wouldn't cut into steel like that.

Accuracy has been about 1inch+ at 100 with 140american gunner, 3/4 with 140eldmatch. Nothing to write home about. I don't know how much it's me or the barrel so I'm about to try working up some loads and try again tomorrow ... I expected better but too early to tell

I just got a new barrel from PVA....after 40 rounds I borescoped it. I noticed machine marks on the lands after the throat. Any thoughts?

Anyone know who sells the clamping shell on the bottom of the bag rider?

Nice ... unfortunately I have a Fuzion action and the bolt goes down 90deg with an oversized bolt knob..worried it may get bottomed out against a part of the buttstock

Anyone have any pics of the ATx chassis folded with a Remington 700 action? I'm wondering if the folded buttstock will close with a large bolt handle.

I don't have the folding hinge on my ATX chassis. I would assume it's the same issue with the ATX rifle. Even if it lines up, I have to bend the rod alittle to get the handle of th cleaning rod over that plate . I don't know how to remove the shoulder piece to do a cleaning. The cleaning rod...

Patriot valley. I'm about to finish putting the brake on. The suppressor sits on the shouldered edge of the brake I am well aware that this isn't a real issue. I was just hoping there were some options out there interms of a larger diameter crush washer or something that would protect that...

The brake is on there with 2 thin shims and the factory supplied spacer. It's all perfect for a .750" AR-15 barrel though. The shoulder of the barrel is sharp...you may be looking at the wrong part.

I just got a new M24 contour barrel and mocked up my surefire brake for my can. Obviously not the same diameter. Is there some kind of washer that I can install that is large enough to protect the sharp corner of the shoulder of the barrel?

Cool....I just wasn't sure if I should get a knob or a lever clamping arca clamp...I just image the lever ones can clamp down harder

I understand it relys on friction now rather then the serrations for retention. Can I really finger tighten that gold round knob hard enough that it wouldn't slip on the smooth rail? I know they now have the new lever locking clamp. I've never handled any arca clamp to know how it grabs

I have my first ever arca rail on my chassis . The rail has smooth edges and not the serrations like some from Daniel defense and area419. If I put area419 clamp onto my smooth edge will it the bipod slip under recoil?

Thanks for the insight. The funny thing is the stock comes with stainless and when I removed em there is start of some damage to the hex. (After heatng it to loosen the loctite). That's why I'm asking about torque. The stainless cap screws are way too soft. If I had to fight the loctite anymore...
