    Gain twist for a .338LM

    Re: Gain twist for a .338LM With these changing twist riflings, wouldn't a bullet be initially formed to whatever twist was starting out and continuously formed to the final twist. Could the continuous forming of the bullet be worse than all at once when the bullet slams into a normal barrels...

    Rifle Scopes Eotech or Aimpoint??

    Re: Eotech or Aimpoint?? I bought a eotech xps 2-2 and was disappointed in it, The reticle was spotty and the two aiming dots was too busy. I thought two dots one close one far would be better than one (I was wrong). I never even shot the eotech just put it back in its box and ordered a...

    Remington 700 LTR

    Re: Remington 700 LTR Sure you can get to 500 without a canted base. The canted base gives you the ability to go out further. With the mk4 or nightforce you will have enough up travel to use a 20moa base, there is no reason not to get one.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold MK4 MRT M1 2.5-8x36 Questions (PIC)

    Re: Leupold MK4 MRT M1 2.5-8x36 Questions That is a 36mm, I have one in 3-9x36 It is clear but the FOV is pretty limited. It is more like looking down a tube than any of my other scopes. I bought mine off samplelist.com. It was a trade in. They currently have a 3-9 M1 for $699 On a AR you...

    Tac Sol vs. Green Mountain Barrel for 10/22 build

    Re: Tac Sol vs. Green Mountain Barrel for 10/22 build I have a tacsol threaded, I like it. I cant think of a better barrel for hunting. It is lighter than my MKIII Hunter. My barrel is good accuracy wise. It is far better than my factory barrel. I use it for hunting not bench shooting so...

    Winchester Super Grade and Extreme Weather?

    Re: Winchester Super Grade and Extreme Weather? I have a 7mm mag 70 classic that was a standard gun, replaced the stock with a McMillan and bedded it. The accuracy is horrible. It is worst shooting gun I have it is about 3-4MOA. I did buy it used from a pawn shop so the previous owner might...

    Rifle Scopes Which red dot is best?

    Re: Which red dot is best? I just a couple of weeks ago went through this, I bought a Eotech XPS2-2 and was disappointed with the reticle, I was so disappointed in it I didnt waste my time sighting it in. The follwing week I bought a Aimpoint. The Aimpoint is much higher quality than the...

    Remington R5 Milspec.300WM or FN PBR XP 24".300WSM

    Re: Remington R5 Milspec.300WM or FN PBR XP 24".300WSM I own a 308 5r and one of the cdnn 300wsm pbr rifles. I like both of them. I like the winchester action better than remington (CRF, firing pin safety, 3 positon safety). With what CDNN is selling the FN for you can always turn your money...

    Remington R5 Milspec.300WM or FN PBR XP 24".300WSM

    Re: Remington R5 Milspec.300WM or FN PBR XP 24".300WSM The 5r is good but you can get a good deal on the 300wsm pbr action from CDNN now. The PBR and a mcmillan would be right around the price of the 5r. Most of the PBR rifles for sale used are these from CDNN, generally they have a houge...

    THOUGHTS on CMMG and STAG and DPMS....AR15's..

    Re: THOUGHTS on CMMG and STAG and DPMS....AR15's.. It would be hard to go wrong with one of the CMMG bargain bin rifles. I have seen several of the rifles purchased by friends and all have been quality. I dont think you can do better than $600 for a built rifle. At that price you can make...

    Gunsmithing Milling Titanium

    Re: Milling Titanium Make sure you dont keep many chip piles around, I learned that one back when I was in college playing in the machine shop afterhours. Looked like about 3 arc welders struck up then the sparks lit all my chip piles.

    Rifle Scopes 50MM OBJ & RING HEIGHT???

    Re: 50MM OBJ & RING HEIGHT??? Take a look at TPS rings. They are far superior to the Burris rings. I no longer buy anything other than TPS for my 30mm rings. Lows on my 44mm USO fit great to my 5r.

    Rifle Scopes A "tough" hunting scope?

    Re: A "tough" hunting scope? I recently bought a swarovski to replace a leupold vxIII on my hunting rifle. I cant attest to the toughness which I believe will be excellent. I can however say that it has the largest field of view of any other scope I have (USO, NF, Leupold, Nikon). FOV is...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4 LRT vs Other Optics

    Re: Leupold Mark 4 LRT vs Other Optics I have a couple mk4s because I have too many rifles to put ultra high end optics on. I was shooting one afternoon alternating between rifles with a USO, MK4, and Nightforce; the mk4s had the worst glass of all of them but it is still very usable. Past...
