    300 Win Mag loads with 208 A-Max?

    Re: 300 Win Mag loads with 208 A-Max? jrob300, Let me know how that load works once you get to stretch it out pass 200 yards not that 5/8 at 200yds is not good enough. I just had my 300 win mag 700P barrel cut down to 22".

    Cold Hammer Forged Barrels

    Re: Cold Hammer Forged Barrels I do not own one but I am looking at building an AR15 type rifle and I would like to use one then. I hear they are very accurate and they last a lot longer and the steel is suppose to be denser, they use a cold hammer forged barrels on the M24 rifle.

    Re: Scope mount/M1A crazy bay, I have the Smith Enterprise scope mount, low mount rings .25" (can still use iron sight in a pinch) and a smith cheek pad with the Leupold MK4 2.5-8x36 MRT scope and I am pretty happy with it. I had the springfield mount and it sat a lot higher. I am sure if...

    Suppressors Sig P220 Match

    Re: Sig P220 Match I would try a P220 SAO if you do not want to come up with the cash for the P220 Match, from what I hear the standard P220 is pretty accurate also. The standard SAO has a pretty nice tigger pull from the factory plus you will not have to deal with the fat wood grips.
