Thanks phantasm. As they say a picture, especially a good one, is worth a thousand words.

Thanks guys for the input. The ar I will be primarily using it on is a 16 inch gun that I will shoot without the can sometimes, but I will always have dual ears on when doing that, and the 308 is mainly a range gun as my hunting rig is a light one. So based on your in input I am going with the...

Guys I am buying a sandman K to primarily run on my AR which will have the flashider muzzle device. As an aside I decided to get a muzzle device for my tikka ctr 308. My question is should I get the break or fh? Is one quieter than the other? Thanks and be safe

Re: Tikka T3 experiences I have a 300 Win Super lite, great gun, super smooth. hate all the plastic though. To me it shoots way better than it should so goes to show you the quality of the barrel is the most important thing, as Sako/Tikka are known to have great barrel. The magazine is my...

Guys I have a couple spare MRTs, love the scopes for my ARs but the eye relief worries me. Any one tried one on a 308 bolt gun?? Was the eye relief to short?? Thanks Z

Re: Broken SAKO TRG22 Bolt Release Pin (updated pics) Good thread, thanks for keeping us posted. It is the small parts that sometimes are the hardest think to find when you break them. I had a small part issue on a Browning a while back, took them 9 months to get it to me. Z

Re: Twin 7WSMs from GAP Does anyone make hi quality brass for the WSM?? Just asking as I had bad luck with brass life in WW 270 WSM brass when I had one. That gun made me pledge never to buy another Kimber as I could never it get it shoot right with the factory barrel and a bunch of work. Z

Re: Tikka T3 tactical question I would just watch the classifieds here, gunbroker and gunsamerica. One will turn up. Z

Re: I've narrowed it down between the.. One Ooher thing to condsider in the cheaper 700 build equation, as compared say to GAP, is the resale value of you decide to sell it. You may pay more for a top notch known big name smith/shop like GAP on the front end but your gun will be worth much...
