As far as it being a corrosion hazard or rust spot, keep it oiled and you'll never have an issue. It is purely cosmetic.

Fill the forend with MarineTex gray or Devcon 10110 and thread a bipod stud in.

I need a head's up on when the next comp is happening, and a suitable rifle. ;) Then you can eat humble pie

Have you guys worked out the approximate G7 ballistic coefficient on that bullet? I personally think, if done in the correct way, it will be very cool to show on mainstream television. I suppose, depending on target size, it can still be considered a "sniper" shot. The "rifle" however...

If it'll fit, buy an ez out that has a tip very close to the size of your allen wrench. If going the epoxy route, I'd prefer devcon 10110 to jb weld. Jb weld is "mushy" compared to devcon, but it CAN work. I have been lucky enough to get a stripped allen head screw out with a little...

If you aren't shooting over 800 yds and you are using the bdc reticle for most shots, run the Recon. Both would work, but the 20moa is unnecessary for the above applications. Save a few bucks.

You will probably want the ADM Recon or ADM Recon 20 MOA, depending on the distance you're thinking about shooting. Primary arms is a great company to buy ADM mounts through. The recon H is very high, like 1.9" centerline or something. Unless you are trying to clear a giant BUIS, you'll be...

Less $$$ than Larue, quick detach, dependable= ADM

Fulldraw, I'm not part of the "gang up on the new guy" crowd, but there is one critically serious flaw in your story. Originally Posted by FULLDRAW I then explaned how I have burnt up at least $300 in ammo, $200 in rings/mounts and another $100 in gunsmithing fees, not to mention the...

That is a technique used by some benchrest shooters. It has less merit for hunters and people that shoot people for a living, as you need to be 100% accountable for when a shot breaks. Shooter's particular grips are as different as their taste in women, but good shooters use a grip that doesn't...

Jon...what's up with those lesser rings on your hunting rig? :D It seems like it needs a set of Aadland rings.

Very detailed review! Thank you.

Haha, Scooby Doo Monsters... One of the places we have access to hunt is swamp land. The longest reasonable shot in that entire plot is maybe 80 yards. It is thick, dense, congested and dark. We cut that particular cheap-o barrel down for maneuverability. As for crowns, I'll perform a crown...

Hesco, you bring up a valid point. Here's a theory: Remember though that bullets themselves and actual velocities vary. When we have a very accurate load with extreme velocity spread under 20fps, the world is dandy. But assuming we have an uneven release of thrust from the bullet at the...
