I need some straight answers. I was thinking of buying a barrel blank (no contour) and giving my friend whatever measurements he needs to contour, thread and crown it. He is not a gunsmith, he is a mechanical engineer who regularly works with similar requirements on a lathe. I trust him to not...

Re: LH Stocks for Remy 700 I just had my lefty Manners t4a come in 2 days ago. Excellent fit and finish. And as a lefty, I just have to say that the choices out there suck. Its either nothing or a custom stock. There really isn't an in between option. Saving up for an aics 2.0 is an...

Re: NEW BUILD Hell bent on a savage eh? Do you have a budget or plans for the rifle? (i.e hunting, long range shooting) .204 Ruger? Any particular reason for that caliber? I don't know anything about it so im curious as to what its used for.

Re: New GAP Rifle Wheres your trigger?

Re: Nickel plated timney trigger? Figured it was something like that. I ordered one from Brownells but I'll still post the email as well as a quick review.

What does the nickel plating do for the trigger? This is specific to the 510. I emailed timney and I am waiting a response, but I wanted to see if anyone knew off the top of their heads. Either way, I'll post what they have to say.

Unless I can find a decent lefty stock, I'm gonna break down and order a Manners. McMillan wait time sorta sucks too much. So what are the options that are must haves? All I've come to is: T4A(molded I guess) Lefty Chassis Little bipod stud? Side note: I'm so frustrated with being lefty and...
