    Let see those Spartan Rifles

    My NorCal club rifle recently re-barreled into a 260rem. Not the prettiest Spartan (I never coat barrels), but I am sure she will drive. Borden LH Alpine Action Newman Bottom Metal Bartlein 4 groove 8.5 twist MTU Huber Trigger Seekins 20MOA base

    Optimal Twist for 6.5CM and 260 Rem

    ^^ There you have it guys. Straight from the man the makes the barrels. For the last 3 to 4 years (maybe even longer) 90% of the custom rifles in our club have been powered by a Bartlein. I am sure Frank can find more precise numbers, but I think our barrel orders are split down the middle...

    Optimal Twist for 6.5CM and 260 Rem

    Layton, I have had two 5 grooves shoot right under 1/2moa, but everyone of my 4 groove 260s shoots 3/8ths or better. Normally in the .2s, and my Polarbear 2.0 rig is in the .1s after the 20th round down range. My first KMW 260 was a 4 groove....that thing was the magic stick. I am sure it...

    Optimal Twist for 6.5CM and 260 Rem

    Over the last 2 years, our club has ordered over 100 8.5 twist 4 groove and 5Rs in 6.5mm from Bartlein. We have yet to find a reason to switch. Personally, I prefer a 4 groove over a 5R in this particular caliber.

    We have 25 to 30 guys that run 260s in the club and 95% of them use 47gn of H4831SC with great results out to distance.

    The Great .308 Win. War Horse. Can it keep up?

    I have a stable of 6.5s, but do like shooting my ole Newman Precision 308win at an F-Class match, or just getting some good training in.

    Let see those Spartan Rifles

    This one is not mine, but by far one of my favorite builds by Marc that I was a part of. The AmericanSnipers.org build Marc did for the 2012 Surefire TBRC Invitational. This team effort by many of our sponsors raised around 20K for ASO last year.

    GAP10 ShowEm Off Pics

    I have always wanted an AR-10 platform rifle, but was never impressed with the performance of any until I saw a few GAP10s on our 1K range. Going to run it out to distance in the next few weeks. 44.0gn of Varget FGMM Case CCI BR2 175SMK 22" Barrel Surefire Brake Geissele Trigger PRS Stock...

    Range Report, LMT MWS .308 20" SS

    You should of seen Jason go crazy on the Saturday before he got this decent group. I was sure he was going to fire sale that thing and order a GAP 10, but the week is still young.....

    Polar Bear 260rem v2.0

    Finally was able to get out to the range to break in and work up a load. She is going to be a hammer! The group in the low right corner are the first 3 rounds down the tube. Some junk 6.5mm bullets I had on the shelf (dunno what brand or what weight) and some 4350, I think 42.0gn to break in...

    Huber vs CG Extreme

    Huber single stage. I have 3 of them and they have been bomber so far. John is also one of the coolest guys to deal with and has awesome customer service.

    Polar Bear 260rem v2.0

    Being the rifle whore that I am, a lot of people have asked me what is the nicest rifle that I have in my stable. Before June 21st that question was hard to answer because I have had rifles built by who I believe are some of the best in the industry. A few years ago I started to shoot a...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns XDS Review

    Re: XDS Review I was lucky to find one in CA to do a PPT on one since it is not on the CA "safe" handgun roster. Will be starting the paper work tomorrow! Thanks for the review, now I don't feel so bad for buying an XDS after just picking up a new 5" XD 45ACP today. LOL

    Official 2012 SH Rifle Order Thread

    Re: Official 2012 SH Rifle Order Thread I got a chance to check out this rifle after our LR match last Sunday and it was very impressive. I'd jump in on this if I didn't already have a Spartan 260, a Spartan 243, and a Spartan 3006 in the safe.

    Huber trigger.

    Re: Huber trigger. I have 3 rifles with Huber single stages in them and have not had an issue. You need to ensure that the stock is inletted for the trigger so that the safety does not contact the stock though. I had to hog out a lil more material on my A5s. YMMV Vu
