    Just wanted to say that I'm happy with my 24" Tikka CTR. You won't go wrong with one

    223 prs rifle for 15 yo daughter

    Nothing wrong with a 24" 223 barrel. I shoot 500 yard F-Class with a 24" 223 barrel. Some guys I shoot with think I should rebarrel to a 28", but I'm happy with how my current barrel shoots.

    The M1907 sling, am I the only one still using it?

    1907 sling is my preferred sling. I've shot HP matches in the past and attended Appleseed events and learned how to use them. I have them on several rifles. I'm probably younger than you, in my 30s.

    Once fired 223 AR brass

    I would leave your resizing die setup for your bolt gun and resize the brass from the AR. I do it all the time, never an issue.

    IMR 3031 & 5.56 or .308

    I've heard good things about 39.5gr of 3031 and 168gr bullets. I have some loaded up to see, just haven't been to the range...

    Help me pick an 18 .223 Wylde Barrel

    Another vote for WOA. I've got their 18" SPR barrel, 7" twist, rifle gas and it shoots well.

    223/223AI Tikka, not feeding single rounds.

    I've got the "Bob Sled" AICS 223 single shot magazine for my Tikka 223 (in a MDT chassis). It will single load just fine if I move the bolt forward slowly.

    Budget setup: Ruger Precision VS. Howa

    Between those 2 I'd go with the Howa. I've handled a Howa 1500 varmint barreled action in a MDT Chassis and was pretty impressed. I'm not a Ruger fan, and I've read enough bad about their RPR to keep me away.

    Thermal dissipator fit under non JP handguards

    Good deal! That's the same gas block I went with since the JP didn't fit under my ZEV handguard.

    Bergara b-14r pic thread

    Very nice! Thank you. And what kind of accuracy are you getting? Do you have the HBAR version or the standard?

    Bergara b-14r pic thread

    I'm thinking about putting a B14r barreled action into a spare MDT XRS chassis I have. Anyone have any issues with mag fitment or anything? I haven't bought a barreled action yet, just trying to figure out if there are any issues I should expect.

    Thermal dissipator fit under non JP handguards

    I put together my 6.5 Creedmoor gas gun with a Zev receiver set and Zev handguard, with the JP 6.5 barrel. The thermal disappator wouldn't fit, so I didn't use it. Clamp on JP gas block didn't fit either.
