Re: Buy once cry once: Totally disagree When I was first beginning this sport I bought a 17HMR; fires a very light, VERY fast round so I figured it'd be perfect for learning wind/elevation and scope adjustments. Bought a Savage, the accuracy on the rifle was exceptional and had a low price...

Re: NF 3.5x15 F1 Ah man! That's a hell of a paint job!

Re: Barrett 98B opinions Well keep in mind that looks arent everything. The 98B is a good rifle and the 338LM round is amazing at extremely long range. The price tag is quite a bit up there though. I had the pleasure of putting about 50rnds through one a couple of months ago and I can tell...

Re: Is Savage killing the Custom Rifle market? Im in the same place as RotARy15 here. I bought a Savage 10 FCP in an HS stock with a STOCK DBM which rocks. I tossed a Bushy Tactical Elite 3200 on there for glass and I was hitting .35MOA at 200 yards (where I always set my tac sticks to)...

Re: Best 1,000 yard rifle in .260 Rem for $1,000ish? I'm gonna have to say - savage rocks. I've owned many in my shooting times. I am currently using a Savage 10 FCP in an HS stock; hitting 1/2MOA groups at 500 yards with it. Beautiful system! Spent 950 bucks on it and another 210 on a...

Re: Oops.... When I saw that photo in the preview, I felt like someone just go kicked in the balls lol

Re: New Savage M10 FCP HS .308 Yessir it is Love that scope!

Just took my new savage out for a couple hrs, checked grouping. Looking at 0.35moa average at 200 yards. Will post shots next time I go!

Re: Judging Reaction - Halo style 10/22 conversion a 150 cost wont allow for a conversion. The reason behind that is you're literally taking apart the whole rifle and all it's parts. You're just taking the trigger assembly and the bolt area but that's it. The entire receiver itself is make...

Re: Judging Reaction - Halo style 10/22 conversion Exactly, Seanh... and what happens if it happens to actually fit a functional tactical role too?! lol It's not gonna be cheap - got a rough quote on the cost of the full upper receiver area today, looking at 1.2k but using CNC it'll drop by...

Re: Judging Reaction - Halo style 10/22 conversion hehe, G3nintinite. Agreed for the most part - but a clone won't be functional and I'd like to stay close to the design but actually have every part functional so that it can be used in a tactical sense. To clone it would be as others seem to...

Re: Judging Reaction - Halo style 10/22 conversion I thank you for your feedback, Calmly. The 10 22 I have now is plenty accurate, easily able to touch holes at 75+ yards so I completely understand your perspective. Regardless; I'm going to go ahead with the refit if only for my own personal...

Re: Judging Reaction - Halo style 10/22 conversion Also note: the ONLY thing of the 10/22 that would be here would be the action, I'll be changing out everything else including tube, trigger assembly etc. The stock will not lay inside of a housing. I'm totally against that kind of stuff. I...

Re: Judging Reaction - Halo style 10/22 conversion In my defense, I'll be adding and subtracting quite a bit because I also tend to agree with the function over form ideal. Although I would like to have it recognizable as a halo-originated design. Also as odd as it sounds; I'll have a...

Hey guy - I was field stripping my ruger 10/22 tonight after I had put the first 500 rounds through it after it's custom rebuild and I had a brilliant idea: I was to make a bullpup conversion for it that follows a design similar to the BR55 rifle from Halo 2. Total nerd moment, I know but I was...
