    AR , cheaper to build or buy ?

    Re: AR , cheaper to build or buy ? Well, when I was originally weighing my options for a rifle build, an AR platform was in the running. The only thing is, that in the State of PA there is Absolutely no use for one, other than paper. So I have chosen a Bolt Action Platform. Anyhow...

    Poor Mans Scopes?

    Re: Poor Mans Scopes? I looked at the Redfield but was under the impression they were over glorified Simmons. I have been wrong in the past :p If I decide to update my scope I will consider them but the Vortex looks really promising! I like the x20 option in magnification for a .308! I would...

    Stock Options

    Re: Stock Options I really like the look of the Manners, but I don't know about the price, simply because they all disclaim that Pillar and Glass is advised. Which is a longer wait and more out of pocket cash ;p I think unless I can get ahold of Scott soon I will probably go with the...

    Stock Options

    Re: Stock Options Maybe I shall give calling them a shot than! I am primarily interested in the Medalist and Mcree. McMillan and Manners run the same price if not more than the Mcree and they still need Pillar and Glass Quick Pole Question: What does a Gunsmith in your area charge to...

    Poor Mans Scopes?

    Re: Poor Mans Scopes? I don't have one, I too have a Bushnell! But I was shocked that someone has that on their rifle, especially a .308!

    Stock Options

    Re: Stock Options I can honestly say I wasn't looking at Manners or McMillan but I think I will take a look at them. I think I passed on viewing them because nobody has them in stock! As for stocky's I use them as a reference for price and pictures. I was going to order from MidwayUSA once...

    Stock Options

    Re: Stock Options I was just looking at Stockys for the Medalist, and realized that since it is aluminum bedded from "grip to tip" that there is no need for glas s or pillars haha silly me! My understanding is that the A5 has the adjustable comb and cheek peice correct? If that being the...
