    DPMS GII 308 rifles

    I wonder what the max coal of the receiver/ mag will be? I'm not interested in 308 but possibly doing a build in 260 or 243.

    243wssm or 6.8 for 1st ar

    Shooting out to 600 but killing out to 300.

    243wssm or 6.8 for 1st ar

    Good idea on the regriping. We will not be shooting at much over 300 yds at deer. I shoot 105's and above out at our 243's with good results. I need to reconsider the Grendel again if the brass is too hard to come by in the 243 wssm. The 5.56 223 is not even a contender for what I want to...

    Advice needed on Ar15 for mid range shooting

    I have read somewhere the 6br had a terrible time feeding due to its shoulder angle. May or may not hold truth though.

    243wssm or 6.8 for 1st ar

    Hey guys I am considering having a local reliability firearms guru build/ assemble me either an 243wssm or 6.8. The intent for this gun is something for deer, pigs, and some med distance shooting (600yrds) and something my 2 boys can shoot. I was originally thinking ar10 because I already have 2...

    Rifle Scopes New scope for my reliable hunting rifle

    Thank you for your reply. I do like the idea of keeping the weight down. I keep getting drawn to the zeiss hd5. It's got the perfect weight and glass for my price range bug the only reticle I would consider would be the duplex. I just don't think I want to cross over from mils either. The pst is...

    Rifle Scopes New scope for my reliable hunting rifle

    I am about to begin reloading for my browning Abolt in 7mag. This gun has produced under 1"inch groups at 200 from crappy sand bags shooting Winchester ballistic tips. I'm saying all of this because despite its factory form, I love this gun and I believe it's capable of becoming a great long...

    Thoughts on Savage build

    I recently build a gun similar to what you are doing. I bought a model eleven and kept the action and trigger. Then, I stuck a bartlein barrel on it used the factory recoil lug, cdi bottom metal, retained the barrel nut, and i worked the accutriger to 1.75lbs. I mounted all this on a m millan...

    Browning A-bolt help

    I am not trying to persuade folks to go browning. I just feel some may dislike them because they are non traditional. I have spent a lot of time deciding foryself cause to many discouraged it. But everyone is different and what others feel is limitating other might feel its a convenience. Here...

    Browning A-bolt help

    Manners does not do Brownings at all, of what I know(which isn't much) Mcmillan is about it. I wish I could come across good deals like your left handed action NAME ENOUGH.

    Browning A-bolt help

    Well I talked to my smith today and he said all it took was two firm hits on the wrench and the 243 factory barrel came right off. I do not know who might be interested in this info but I thought I might post.

    Browning A-bolt help

    I just had a 243 stainless stalker's barrel removed today by my gunsmith. I informed him of all the hype about how browning secures the barrels etc. etc.. He also has my 7mag to tear down for another build. I will be talking with him tomorrow. He is located in the Houston area.

    Groundhogbuster,I did not realize the weaver came in moa/moa. How does it compare to your NF?

    Rifle Scopes Scope advice for under 800yds

    The only other scope I am looking at but failed to mention is the weaver 3-15 with emdr. I just think I may be hard pressed hitting targets out to 800 with only 15x. I would be willing to give up MOA for mils for a scope that really fits my needs.

    Rifle Scopes Scope advice for under 800yds

    I have been really putting off making a decision on a scope for my recent build. It's a 243 win with bartlein barrel and McMillan stock that shoots 105 vlds quite well. I am not sure what would be considered overkill. But what I am wanting is a ffp MOA/MOA with illumination. I have been looking...
