    7 PRC Tikka AICS Magazine Troubleshooting

    This is probably the most thorough paragraph on tuning feed lips I've seen. Exactly what I was after. I'll give this a shot when the tool gets here. Thank you!

    7 PRC Tikka AICS Magazine Troubleshooting

    Thanks for the replies so far. Once I get my feedlip tool in I’ll post my results opening up the front lips slightly.

    7 PRC Tikka AICS Magazine Troubleshooting

    Hey All, I'm working on a 7 PRC on a Tikka action. Knowing what I know now I probably would have gone a different route, but it all started with a good deal on a Tikka in a good stock. If I can get some feeding issues sorted I think I'll be out of my rabbit hole (mostly). Anyways, the rifle is...

    Optics Burris Veracity 2-10x42 FFP - $350 Shipped

    Had this on an Elk rifle I sold because just more interested in hunting birds than Elk these days. Used and mounted on a 300 Win Mag but in great shape. Awesome hunting reticle (Ballistic E1).

    LW Optic for a Plinker (CZ-527)

    As in warms up here in Colorado I've found I really enjoy taking my CZ527 in 7.62x39 up with me camping. It's not my PRS gun by any stretch, but it's (relatively) cheap to shoot for the thumps it provides. I like shooting it with irons, but I'm curious what it can do with a small simple optic on...

    WTB Bushnell 3-12 LRTS or LRTSi

    Looking to buy for one of these and regret not grabbing one earlier from Cameraland. I have a Sig Tango6 2-12x I could potentially trade that lives on a 223. It's a nice LOW optic as well.

    Howa 1500 Barreled Action Build

    Picked up a 20" Varmint .308 Howa action. Went with a lightweight Legendary Arms Work stock. Had to seriously hog out the barrel channel and bed it but the gun shoots Factory 175gr FGMM at 1/2" MOA. I wouldn't worry much about accuracy with these actions.

    Gunsmithing Howa HACT Trigger E-Clip Size

    For future internet goes who might have this same question. A 3/32" e-clip from Ace seems to do the trick.

    Gunsmithing Howa HACT Trigger E-Clip Size

    Well decided to take half a coil off my Howa 1500 HACT trigger. Didn't do the plastic bag trick and launched the trigger pin e-clip into space. Anyone know what size it is and/or a good place to find one?

    Rifle Scopes Best 2-10 ish ffp

    Going to add some 2 cents on here since the Tango 6 2-12x was listed. I picked up one with the idea to replace my trusty SWFA SS 3-9. I figure gaining illumination, zero stops, a better reticle, and locking / better turrets would be worth it at the expense of 10oz. Just looking through these...

    Rifle Scopes Tract Toric 30mm UHD 4-20 ffp

    I have a set of their binoculars and they seem great so far. Outstanding customer service and Jon is awesome. My biggest concern in longevity of the company.
