    Anybody remember/have a link to the short-lived AICS clone that was made and then halted?

    Are they currently going after any of the dozens of other chassis on the market today?

    Whats your go to load for 155gr 308

    2156 SMK Palma's started shooting real well for me after 46gr and up to 47gr of Varget in Winchester brass. Still need to load up some more rounds with smaller increments between 46-47 to fine tune though. Stock 700 SPS-V in an AICS. I like Varget so far, as I didn't see any pressure...

    I miss 10% off

    What has Brownell's been gouging? I've made several orders from them throughout the panic and can't recall being charged a higher than normal price on anything. Or am I sensing more of the same sour grapes from this thread that I saw in the Midway discount thread?

    I miss 10% off

    Get an 03FFL, Brownell's offers really good discounts for C&R ffl holders. It will probably pay for itself on your first purchase.

    AI pistol grip stocksides, available in LH?

    Anyone know if the AI pistol grip stocksides for legacy AICS are available, or even produced for left handed chassis, or are viper skins the only option? Also, is the new AICS with flush cups from SHOT 2012 ever going to come to market?

    AICS spacers

    I've got an AICS spacer kit (1x10mm spacer, 1x40mm spacer, longer bolts) I didn't end up using, it's yours for the cost of a USPS small flat rate box if you'd like, just shoot me a PM.

    need help shipping to California

    Are you trying to ship one of your rifles that you are trying to sell to an FFL in CA? If so, you do not need to go through an FFL, you can just use USPS or fedex (not 100% sure about FedEx, someone correct me if I'm wrong.) to ship to an FFL in CA. Depending on how well your local post office...

    Rifle Scopes Decent mid priced rings

    I've got rings from $20 leupold rifleman rings, TPS TSR rings, to 34mm badgers, and I'd recommend a set of TPS rings, which fall right in that "mid-range." This is just personal opinion, and I don't know if there's any science to back it up, but for repeated installations and removals, I'd...

    Vertx Phantom LT Pant Review

    Another recommendation for the Vertx pants. I like the fit on them, I've got thunder thighs from cycling and hockey, so it's difficult to find a pair of pants that don't constrict my legs without looking way too baggy. The Vertx pants have a great range of motion, generous pockets, and I...
