    The whole box at 100 yards

    CZ457 MTR cut to 17.5” and threaded. 50 rounds SK Pistol Match at 100 yards. I think we can do better. Struggled with a little wind and eye strain.

    .224 Valkyrie

    Never could find a 5 round magazine for 224 Valkyrie bolt gun. 8 rounder too long for bench shooting and hunting situations. Finally too the plunge an cut one down. Holds 4 rounds with 1 coil (1 V) of the spring cut off. Love the final product.

    WTB 224 Valkyrie aics mag

    Reviving this thread instead of starting a new one. Been waiting to see if a 4-5 round AICS type magazine wound be made specifically for the 224 Valkyrie. No kick in about 3 years. The 8 round MDT works very well in my daughters rifle but hangs down way too far for her to shoot off s bench or...

    Precision Rifles.....show em!!

    224 Valkyrie. 1:7 Bartlein. Custom reamer. Stiller 6.8 Bolt action & Bergara take-off stock bedded for action. My daughter’s rifle for years, but never Cerakoted it. Built it as cheap as I could at the time. I wasn’t willing to pay for Cerakote. Now I do it all myself. Shoots well...

    Next 30 cal rifle build caliber help!

    I run a 30 Nosler. 210VLD Hinter at about 3,050 fps. My accuracy load is 2,930 fps. I didnt go 300 PRC because the cartridge is like 3.700” long and needs CIP length magwell and magazines. 3 buddies run the 300 Norma. Very accurate from what Ive seen. 300 Norma wasn't out when I built my...

    scratches in new barrel

    For a precision rifle with a match grade barrel I wouldn’t expect to see chatter or chip scarring in the rifling. I would be concerned every time I saw a flier. Sometimes ignorance is bliss, but that wouldn’t make me happy on a $3800-ish rifle. Glad its performing well for you.

    224 Valkyrie ..? what is your opinion ?

    Well, I decided to rebed my daughters 224 Valkyrie bolt gun. I always thought it had a little stress on the fint action lug. I could feel every so slight movement when starting to loosen the front action screw. It shot well so I didn't worry, but a flier here and there got under my skin. Once...

    Hunting/Plinking build - thoughts on weight?

    The MDT HNT26 is only a little lighter than the XLR? The HNT26 is 26 oz. I assembled one and it was nice. Super light. Balanced extremely well with a CF barrel.

    New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

    I would also like to know about mags. Buikding a precision AR in 6 ARC. Coming from 6.8 SPC and 224 Valkyrie. Has no issues with my 6.8 mags. Thought I read somewhere the 6.8 mags were working for 6.5 Grendel and 6 ARC in some cases. I haven't bought mags yet, but i have all the rifle parts.

    Will a Bergara Barrel fit on a Remington "clone" style action?

    My understanding is no because Bergara has a proprietary thread tenon. It will not just screw on. Maybe a smith could thread the action, but I doubt it because the Bergara thread is very coarse and there isnt much available material on the factory action. PS - there is a pretty recent...

    AR new barrel cycling issues

    After trying several mags and adjusting my buffer weight i had a 10” barrel that wouldnt lock back with super sonic ammo or even super sonic suppressed. The barrel manufacturer said I should be running a stock buffer spring and carbine buffer for the barrel port size. I was running the JP SCS...

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    AR’s are generally kinda ugly to me. Saw some nice ones here! I come from mostly bolt guns, but have built quite a few AR platforms. A couple I coated. Flag was a request by a friend. “Broken glass” is a pattern I use often.
