    Bore guide necessary with Otis?

    I use a pull through rope type system for light cleaning and a bore guide and rod for deeper cleaning. I general I think periodic maintenance is more important... than the exact process

    New MPA BA Rifle (Barrel breakin or NOT)

    MPA has a pretty simple break in and cleaning process. For a $3k plus gun why not just do it the way the builder recommends? That's what I will do with my MPA when it arrives. MPA Process: Barrel Break In and Cleaning Breaking in the barrel is a critical step to ensure a long and accurate to...

    Help with Portable Steel Target Stand and Plates

    I bought pre cut AR 500 plates and they hang from a wooden 2x4 saw horse. I had access to a used fire hose and cut a section and drilled it and the fire hose is excellent as it takes tons of splatter before starting to fray. Simple and lightweight and easy to assemble.

    10/22 Accuracy build

    Don't think you will be able to get more accuracy from a 10-22 type than the Kidd rifles. I believe he guarantees at least 1/2 inch group or smaller at 50 yards

    Talk me out of it.. Or more into it..

    Personally I really like the 8mm Mauser round. I find it very versatile.. if you reload it there are tons of choices. I have a 6.5 CM, 308 and 8MM Mauser and really love all 3 rounds but the 8mm is a very cool round. I'd say go for it as a general hunting round.. you can take any North American...

    NATO surplus 7.62 x 51 in bolt?

    I have a LOT of 1993 RadGreen NATO surplus 7.62 x 51 that I have shot for years in M1A, Saiga, PTR 91, various AR's with no issue. Its been about a 2 -3 MOA round but very reliable. Today I shot some in a bolt gun but had several primer strikes where nothing happened. I would load again and...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor or Razor on MasterPiece Arms BA

    I have narrowed it down to either the Vortex Razor Razor HD Gen II 4.5-27x56 $2000 or Razor HD AMG 6-24x50 FFP for $2500. The AMG is almost 2 pounds lighter but the Master Piece Arms MPA BA is heavy anyway so not going to do a lot of walking with so not really worried about the additional 2...

    Changing caliber in Bergara HMR Pro?

    Yes thats the other option I've considered is selling this after using my 308 ammo and buying a 2nd lighter hunter type rifle in 6.5CM. My other rifle is Masterpiece Arms BA so heavy precision type. I don't like having a lot of different calibers and 6.5 CM and 308 seem redundant and the 6.5 is...

    Changing caliber in Bergara HMR Pro?

    Thanks! Does the barrel have to come from Bergara or could it be from any of the premium barrel manufacturer's? I'm thinking Proof, Criterion, etc.. Yes I have a muzzle brake and will put it on the new barrel.

    Changing caliber in Bergara HMR Pro?

    I have a Bergara HMR Pro in 308 that I'm getting a lot of ammo through to improve my skills. I'm also getting some time with a 6.5 CM and really like it. For what I need I (distance, PRS style, hunting deer, coyote and hogs) I don't see anything that the 6.5 doesn't do better than 308. So my...

    Gunsmithing Sporterized Mauser troubleshooting

    Thanks I thought he meant rebarrel the same barrel to a different caliber.

    Gunsmithing Sporterized Mauser troubleshooting

    I don't know the answer to your question. But have one for you.. how do you rebarrel to a smaller diameter round? I assume your model 98 was 8mm how do you go to 6.5? Why did you choose 6.5 - 284 Norma instead of 6.5 CM? Thank you

    22 AR rifle.. Colt the best choice?

    What magazine does that use? Looked at their website but not specified unless I'm missing it.

    22 AR rifle.. Colt the best choice?

    For dedicated 22 AR Rifles what is the best choice in terms of reliability and accuracy? Looking at the Colt but they have had so many changes in recent years not sure how they stack up. Looking for a dedicated 22 AR vs a conversion gun. Thanks!

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Gen II Razor and Spuhr ISMS Mount?

    Good info as I looked at the MPA mount as well as it's about half of the price of Spuhr. The MPA mount has a lifetime warranty as well and since its going on an MPA rifle made me think. How does a unimount fix rail tolerance issues with one side higher vs the other on the picatinny? To my non...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Gen II Razor and Spuhr ISMS Mount?

    , Thank you this makes total sense. Appreciate you explaining this. Will go with the flat top Spuhr since the rifle has 20 MOA. Is the GEN II Razor the best choice in the $2k price range?

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Gen II Razor and Spuhr ISMS Mount?

    Thanks .. checking on this now and your recommendation makes sense. For the 34 mm Scope isn't the flat MOA Spuhr the 4002?

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Gen II Razor and Spuhr ISMS Mount?

    why? not following the logic.. wouldn't around 40 MOA be optimal at 1000 + with 6.5CM? thanks
