On my 4th Subaru. Not sure I'll ever own another brand of car. I have two currently, a new Legacy sedan and a 03 Outback wagon. The legacy has the new CVT tranny which is very impressive both in terms of performance and mileage. I live in the country with crappy roads and the outback now has...

Ok. I think I am convinced. Heating in an oven to 200 degrees should be the first step to see if it goes in. Now, on to the last question... Does it really matter? Or perhaps a better way of stating this question might be: What effect does tight vs. loose barrel to upper fit have on...

A quick update with additional processing thoughts. I got feedback on another forum that Gunkote requires a heat of 300 degrees to cure. That seems to settle the temper issue (as long as you heat it evenly anyway). That however does not solve the potential cracking issue on a barrel install...

A friend and I just received our barrels from the smith to install in our MATEN upper monolithic combos (for precision shooting). I have put a few AR-15's together and the barrels always just slid right in by hand. When we went to put these on, they were VERY tight. We eventually got one to...

I have the mediums on the NXS 2.5x10-32. I know the objective is bigger on mine but I do not think the lows would work on any scope. The probel would be two fold. One, it would not get above a BUIS and two, it would place your eye too low. I use a PRS stock and mediums align with my eye...

Re: Tucker And Dale Vs Evil Johnny, Thanks for the heads up on this one... Funniest move I have seen in quite a while. I about shot my drink through my nose on this part... Alie:"Wait! How about I make some tea and we will all sit and talk this out." Tucker: "That's a good idea. I'll...

Re: need feed back om cmmg lowers asp I have one. The only complaint I have is that the mag well tolerance on mine is very tight. Pmags and all new mags I have work fine but I have some older GI mags that are very tight and won't hardly go in let alone drop free. Other lowers I have work...

Re: SWFA SS 1-6X24HD Pics Please post the link for the group buy in this thread. I am so in for my 300 Blackout build.

Re: Tight Chamber I have a buddy that shoots 175 SMKs out of a 95 Palma chamber loaded to mag length with 45gr varget. Works well for him.

Re: 308 OCW results... Hmmm. I'm not a fan of using the 308 at 1000 either... If I want to feel good about myself, I use my 338. If however I am feeling like a challenge, the 308 at 1000 is tough for me. I feel like practicing that makes me a better shooter. I want to be able to stay...
