    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    I appreciate you reaching out. I don’t have any personal or specific issues. I’m just a member of this forum and many others, and actively involved in the community, and have seen not just forum threads but personal friends impacted by these types of issues. If you take a little time and read...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    @RobertB whats going on with Manners? This thread is starting to get littered with bad customer experience regarding QC on both shipments and on the stocks themselves. Long lead times has been something we’ve all come to accept, but not coupled with incorrect stocks and QC issues. That’s...

    Impact Precision Actions

    Apples to apples is the LPA alpine port (25oz) to the NBK (28oz). https://www.altusshooting.com/products/lone-peak-arms-fuzion-action-alpine-port-nitrided I didn't specify the models because the person I quoted (right above my answer)/was responding to specifically called out the LPA Alpine...

    Impact Precision Actions

    Impact and Lone Peak actions feel different. I prefer the feel of LP, others may prefer the Impacts. Aside from the subjective difference, the LPAs are lighter, by a reasonable margin. They are both great actions (I own both), and you won't go wrong with either. This is an Impact thread, so I'll...

    80,000 PSI capable actions for Sig Fury

    Are you really claiming a nickel-based alloy is a great barrel material? What’s the iron and carbon content? How’s the wear resistance? Something like Stellite would be much better, but it has embrittlement issues. It’s used in liners on some MG barrels for a reason. It’s still not a perfect...

    Bartlein New Barrel Material 400MODBB

    Boretech products are pretty good and won’t eat your hands, face, or lungs. Also, never let carbon fouling get out of hand again once you get it out. Cleaning out hard carbon rings is no joke not fun even with the best products.

    On a thread-related note, I’ve now secured and shot a few thousand of these quite happily, so I no longer need more at this point. Thanks, all!

    Where is 6arc going?

    People need to get over this whole “stolen” garbage when it comes to people/companies paying for and going through the process of SAAMI standardization. Every modern cartridge is a derivative of an older cartridge/cartridges, including your beloved wildcats. How, in any way, is this theft? What...

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    That didn’t seem more complex than I thought. It sounds like much beyond 1000 the K10ks are significantly better. That mirrors my experience with the 2800.coms vs. the 10ks, but I was curious about the Geovids. Too bad they didn’t improve the ranging performance at longer distances, but it also...
