I guess it depends on your use case and what you are doing. For my uses (primarily hunting) most things that need shot within 2-300 hundred yards are not getting mil'd. Their getting a hold over and shot at 2.5-5 or 6x. Anything that needs more mag or there is a desire to mil it the scope is...

I feel like this already exists in the Nightforce 2.5-10 x 32 and 42. I have a 2.5-10x42 and it is pretty compact and light at 20ozs. No capped turrets but it does have zero stop. Only real possible advantage I can see on the Leupold is FFP. I personally don't seem much need for FFP on...

These would require bedding correct?

Kind of looking for a KAC SR15 in either 11.5 pistol or 14.5 or 16 rifle config. Not having a lot of luck finding anything in stock. Anyone have a known volume dealer that stocks a lot of KAC stuff that maybe I haven't stumbled onto? Would rather...

Thanks all for your input......

Looking to trade xm193 or 168 FGMM for 6mm ARC. Omaha Metro Area.

I would think that a .30 cal can on a 6 mm would not have that much back pressure but I have no experience with that can. I have a Q Trash Panda in 30 cal to go on mine. I am waiting on cerakote currently so cannot comment on how it runs. Barrel on mine is a 16 inch proof carbon fiber with...

I have 2 guns with these SCS systems. Yes they quiet down the noise and do make the action feel smoother when racking the gun. I just received a Tubb recoil spring that many have reported will get rid of the spring noise in the buffer tube also. Figure I will try it for less than 30 bucks...

Leupold VXR Patrol is hard to bet for the price and weight. And it has the firedot.

A loaded mag usually removes 99.9% of the slop anyway, except when the last round from the mag is chambered. Non-issue for me. I have an Armalite that has some slop. I tried the accuwedge and it developed feeding problems with the factory 10 round steel mag as well as PMAG's.

Thanks for updating with the results, this was an interesting read. I am getting ready to build an AR15 myself off of a Seekins forged upper and lower and trying to decide on an accurate barrel for it.

Look at American Rifle company, I want to say they are something like .94 if I remember correctly.

Thanks for the response. I will try to do some more research to see if this needs to be a large shank gun or not. Looking at the case diameter of the SAUM it looks like I would basically be left with a quarter inch wall thickness in the chamber area. Seems a little thin but not sure if it is...

Let me know what you hear from GAP. I called and spoke to Jim Briggs at Northland, he seems to do a lot with the Savages. His recommendation was to not mess with the small shank guns such as 308 for conversions to SAUM or WSM. Due to the design of the barrel nut the savage barrel outside...
