    WARNING ~ TR ~ My experience

    Re: WARNING ~ TR ~ My experience OMG I definitely went out to that website many times and checked out their wares. Luckily my spider-sense must have kicked in, because GAP won out. Probably it was really the fact that I'm a programmer and I don't trust any website that looks like something...

    accidental fire

    Re: accidental fire I had this happen on a very very high end custom Rem 700 rifle that I own. When I got it, everything was fine, but after about 300 rounds, I guess things smoothed off and the sear engagement was not enough, and it would start to discharge if you pulled the bolt knob up...

    Stocks: AICS 1.5 -or- Manners M5 DBM

    Re: Stocks: AICS 1.5 -or- Manners M5 DBM I live in Millis area in MA, and have a folding AICS on a Remington LTR 308 and a Manners T4A on my GAP 308. I tried to mount my scopes as low as possible, and on the AICS I do not need the adustable cheek piece (have it as low as possible) with a IOR...

    Voodoo Tactical Drag Bag/Shooting Mat Arrived

    So I ordered one of these from MidwayUSA. It arrived today, and I am somewhat impressed by it, for the price. My GAP .308 with 20", Manners T4, and Surefire brake fits in it perfectly. The OD color matches the OD on the stock really well too. I like the way it folds together, and I like the...

    Re: GAP/Surgeon Action/Manners Stock and what it does So the other two missed the paper completely? That sucks. I'll take that off your hands and dispose of it.

    Remington 700s

    Re: Remington 700s My two LTRs are both 1/2 MOA out of the box. I have a 3-shot group from my .308 one that looks like one hole unless you squint like crazy. Ant that was with bone stock rifle, just lowered the trigger myself (had the old style trigger that was not supposed to be adjusted...

    Is this build worth it?

    Re: Is this build worth it? I use a .17 HMR from savage (the stainless with thumbhole stock). I got it at Dick's Sporting Goods for super short money, and it is super accurate. And it looks amazing, and the stock quality is excellent too, and has a little cheek riser as part of it. Very...

    223 ammo need advise

    Re: 223 ammo need advise I shoot 69gr Black Hills Match out of my 20" 1:9 Remington LTR with excellent results. Also the BH 77gr is even better, but probably won't do so well without a 1:8. It all depends on your definition of "exceptional" I guess. Also, how do you know the ammo is what...

    Beginner Rifle Recommendation: .50 Barrett??!!

    Re: Beginner Rifle Recommendation: .50 Barrett??!! The thing is, that kinda happens. I bought a lot of dumb handguns when I was new to shooting, and my share of dumb rifles (I got a Springfield SOCOM2 and sunk TONS of money into it, then eventually sold it since it just wasn't accurate)...

    AR platform 308 build advice - manufac./suppliers

    Re: AR platform 308 build advice - manufac./suppliers If you don't want to break the bank, check out Rock River's offerings in the Varmint A4 line. They use Wilson heavy air-gauged stainless barrels, and are very very accurate. I have one in .223 with a 20" barrel and it can beat my...

    What do you consider accurate?

    Re: What do you consider accurate? That theory about the .338 not stabilizing till 200-300 yards doesn't make much logical sense: It would mean that the accuracy within 200-300 is not good, so the bullet is "missing" at that point, then somehow beyond 300 it gets "back" on track and realigns...
