    Thanks guys. I do think SH had a big hand in it. Got all the parts except the action here. Have not shot it yet but the scope will go on this weekend I hope and then some time next week will go shoot for the first time.

    Well here it is. My first real build. Started off wanting to build a light weight 7mm-08 and ended up with a 13.8 pond 6x47 Lapua. Someone please tell me where I went wrong. Stiller Tac30 action, Bartlien barrel chambered by Beanland, .3000 recoil lug, 517 Timney @ 2.5 lbs and AICS 2.0...

    Data Book for a Dork Shooter. What do I need?

    So here I am building a nice tactical rifle/coyote killer ( my friend swares there are coyotes in the California Valley, and I am wondering about keeping track of my shots. Keeping track of my shots is more for the rifle than it is me. I have developed my own shooting skills to the point of...

    Gunsmithing ACIS 2.0 stock to .300 recoil lug?? Is it OK??

    so I have an ACIS 2.0 stock and the action and barrel i have to put in it has a 3.0 recoil lug. The stock itself is set up for a standard recoil lug and i am just trying to confirm that it is OK to open up the lug recess area for the thicker lug. It sure looks like there is plenty of meat...

    Atlas Bi-Pod Junk???

    this seems like it may be true but the problem I have (not practical) with loading is doesn't that mean you have to rely on muscle memory?? and isn't that bad? or do you load somehow without using muscles to keep it loaded. I guess that is another thread though. Sent from my SM-N900V using...

    Atlas Bi-Pod Junk???

    I am new to this game and recently got one for my tactical rifle. I opened mine and immediately called my brother who has more experience than I do and he said put a load on it too. Are you kidding? Even when closed mine moves around a bit and and rattles. Is this really the way it is...

    Gunsmithing Proof Research Barrel, MY AX 308 has a new Tube.

    I first want to say I am nowhere near the shooter you guys are but I already took the PR plunge. I wanted to build a 7mm08 and it just happened the only barrel PR had in stock was a 7mm 1.25 inch zero taper 22 inch long blank. Since I am a suckered for a bull barrel I was in. I just hope the...
