    Does a McMillan stock really make a difference?

    Re: Does a McMillan stock really make a difference? Stocks are a very personal sort of choice to a degree. One will subjectively like the feel of one or another. I LOVE McMillian. They have a feeling of solidity that help me tie into the rig.

    Wear out an action?

    Re: Wear out an action? If very heavy handed running the bolt, as I am, I could in theory see the bolt stop and the bolt handle getting battered. Never done so myself. Seen Remmy bolt handles ripped off but thats not the same thing here.

    AK style rifles? Help!

    Re: AK style rifles? Help! Do you want a plinker/utility rifle that you can beat to hell and not care? Or do you want a world class example of the system? That you can still beat the hell out of and it wont care. Cheap and mostly reliable is WASR. Ferrari is Jim Fuller Rifle Dynamics.
