    Wants to buy a .308 semi auto battle rifle

    Re: Wants to buy a .308 semi auto battle rifle I agree about the guarantee but just correcting the OP. If either of these guns could not shoot .5 MOA with the right ammo then I'd be disappointed.

    Wants to buy a .308 semi auto battle rifle

    Re: Wants to buy a .308 semi auto battle rifle I believe their accuracy guarantee is 3/4 MOA for the GAP-10 - 3/8 is their custom bolt-action rifles. Please keep in mind that all AR type rifle no matter who you buy it from is a parts gun, with the parts made by a variety of companies. This...

    16" 6.5 Grendel - Anyone using one?

    Re: 16" 6.5 Grendel - Anyone using one? That's a 14" handguard isn't it? It doesn't look like a 14.5" barrel to me...

    AR vs Shottie for Home Defense

    Re: AR vs Shottie for Home Defense AR, easily. A 12 GA can get the job done in 99% of circumstances, no doubt, but the AR has advantages. Capacity is much greater, well-aimed follow-up shots are fast and easy, much greater capability to engage multiple threats, weight and length make for...

    semi auto vs bolt action

    Re: semi auto vs bolt action PTR threading is 15x1 RH. The PWS HK muzzle brake is the way to go. I've had a PTR for a couple years and ultimately it is going to frustrate it you if you are wanting a precision rifle. That is not what it is, and few of them will reliably shoot below 2 MOA...

    Opinions on a 16 inch spr?

    Re: Opinions on a 16 inch spr? Tac 30 has a 4 MOA center dot which would really hold you back. Viper PST or SWFA SS 1-4x is the WTG; if you can't afford it maybe the Millet DMS. I also like the red dot with flip to side magnifier option. Eotech is the best red dot for this since the middle...

    Bill Springfield trigger jobs?

    Re: Bill Wilson trigger jobs? He tuned my PTR-91 trigger pack and it came out very nice. Very fast turnaround, I think it was about 10 days including round-trip mail.

    Gunsmithing Style of muzzle brake - does it matter?

    Re: Style of muzzle brake - does it matter? I think the larger diameter baffled designs have some advantages. A Holland brake was on a rifle I recently bought used and it is very very effective. May not be the look you want but on a 300 Wby I'd be looking for function over form.

    Is this rifle a good buy? please give input

    Re: Is this rifle a good buy? please give input DMann is right on all counts; I was in the market for used Savage recently and this is a pretty good deal you have if you like that caliber.

    .264 LBC or 6.5 Grendel

    Re: .264 LBC or 6.5 Grendel The name for the chamber only matters to lawyers. Pick the *barrel* you want, not the chamber you want. The AA barrels are Lothar Walther I believe; they are a bit more established than AR Stoner.

    Hydro dipping

    Re: Hydro dipping I really like the way the black rails and other metal accent the camo. That picture could really cost people some serious money.

    Once again...Savage listens!

    Re: Once again...Savage listens! So please educate me.I know why someone would use 300 BLK/Whisper in an AR considering its magwell but why in a bolt-action? Can you explain it?
