    question about a 300 WM

    Re: question about a 300 WM Check into the muzzle break from VAIS. I mounted one of the larger brakes to my .300WM Recoil is now on par with a .243 when firing 190gr 2950fps loads, however, it is a radial brake and generates one hell of a down-blast. The Badger FTE is another great brake...

    Adjustable (length) buttpad for AICS???

    Re: Adjustable (length) buttpad for AICS??? I ordered one of the GRACO adjustable butt plates and attached it to my AICS. You have to re-drill one hole for the stock attachment and drill and tap for the AICS pad but it allowed adjustment in length of pull, vertical axis and rotation...

    WD-40 in gun cases

    Re: WD-40 in gun cases Eezox and Sentry Teflon wipes. +1 for using closed-cell foam in your case. As me why we switched after returning from a South America trip.

    Rifle Scopes Scope for a M1A

    Re: Scope for a M1A For what it's worth: I love my M-1A but you saved yourself much time and frusteration with that decision. I have tried most every mount and optic combination on the M-14 family for years. I've had luck with some, but the bottom line is you end up running out of...

    Rifle Scopes US Optics SN-4

    Re: US Optics SN-4 I have the SN-4S I purchased for a deployment. I don't think you see them very often because they are so custom. Folks order them a certain way to do a certain job. We could get the ACOG with the Doctor optic but I wanted something with more flexability and the SN-4S is...

    Rifle Scopes SN-4??

    Re: SN-4?? My SN-4S is a true 1x. It has the 5.56 BDC reticle in the FFP so it holds value throughout the power range. Big and heavy but it made it through my entire tour without a hitch. I do recommend getting the extended eye relief option.

    Cleaning question to AICS 1.5 owners

    Re: Cleaning question to AICS 1.5 owners I have both a 1.5 and 2.0. The 2.0 is the better choice if you want the spent the money, however, the 1.5 is fine as long as you can re-install the cheek-piece at the same height <span style="text-decoration: underline">every</span> <span...

    New here....... Remington 5R in 308............

    Re: New here....... Remington 5R in 308........... All good advice here. I have a GAP in .300WM and the 5R in .308. As said before, unless you really have the distance, time, and funds to support the belted magnums I recommend you stick with the .308 (for now). Keep in mind that a box of...

    Loading for .300WM - Ideas?

    Re: Loading for .300WM - Ideas? My best formula for .300WM in a Sendero profile 26" barrel is: 73.0gr of RL22 Federal Match Large Rifle primers (NOT magnum) SMK 190s Seat right off the lands Yes the RL22 is more temperature sensitive than H1000 but this is very close to the specs of the...

    Accidental paint job pattern

    Re: Accidental paint job pattern Try a product called "TAL". It's an aircraft finish remover available at most auto parts stores. Eats the paint but has never damaged my bluing or anodizing. Recommend you test it on a hidden spot in the barrel channel before going crazy.

    Quick question to AICS 2.0 owners

    Re: Quick question to AICS 2.0 owners Negative. We have the 2.0 chassis on our work guns and I have never seen one with any slop and that's with several hundred cycles on the hinge.

    Weird issue with my new POF P-308

    Re: Weird issue with my new POF P-308 Had the same problem with a "gas-buster" style charging handle. The bottom was riding on the buffer tube mount on the lower receiver. Wasn't a problem until I put a tighter-fitting upper receiver on and it started rubbing. Broke out the dremel (on the...

    Rifle Scopes what scope remington 700 .308

    Re: what scope remington 700 .308 What do you want to do with it? Tactical, hunting, long range? Here at work we use the Nightforce but I own US Optics and Leupold. All have their pros and cons. The super sniper is not a bad scope (especially the HD) but for the money there are better...
