    Has anybody done a DIY conversion for a pre-14 AX? If so how difficult was it to remove the pins?

    The fate of the Remington 700 in 2017

    Rooster, a new company bought them, so I don't really know, but the new CEO of REM ARMS as they are called said he would have guns on the shelf before hunting season and that hasn't panned out yet. Perhaps recouping their investment?

    The fate of the Remington 700 in 2017

    I have noticed some vendors are getting 700 recievers for sale. Seems odd when there are no guns to be found.

    Giraud or Little Crow Gunworks WFT are fast options.

    6.5 PRC 143g ELD-X Starting Point for H4350 and N560 Powders

    H4350 seems to be a bit fast for the round. I would highly recommend H4831SC or H1000. I'm personally not a fan of the RL series of powders. I'm not sure if I have a fast barrel or what, but I'm way above book loads' velocity in my Proof barrel and getting no pressure with H4831SC. I can...

    The fate of the Remington 700 in 2017

    I hate to revive an old thread, but Remington did indeed go bankrupt again. Just before, I decided to pull the trigger on a 6.5 Creedmoor AAC-SD. It was marked $425 on clearance and Remington was offering a $100 rebate. I figured for $325, the action alone was worth that, plus the take-off...

    Federal brass is shitty, object or concur?

    I've been loading .308 with the same lot of about 1,000 pieces for a long, long time. I wore out one barrel and have put a hurting on two others. The brass has been fired 10 times now. Years ago I only annealed every three firings. Now I anneal every firing. No loose pockets, no cracked...

    You don't have to fireform .280 AI, you can buy at least a few different cases that do not require forming.

    Remington 700 Trigger Recommendations - Hunting

    Weird, I've seen Jewells go down, and even a few Timney, but never a Trigger Tech.

    ZEISS Presents All-New LRP S5 - FFP Riflescopes for Long-Range Precision Shooting and Hunting

    Slow your roll, here, buddy. You don't like questions? We aren't talking about low quality optics. We are talking about top tier. And you've basically agreed...if the user can't tell the difference, is that the best place to be putting money? If the difference is not detected by the human...

    Remington 700 Trigger Recommendations - Hunting

    A gunsmith can tune your existing trigger. If not, Trigger Tech is an excellent hunting trigger.

    ZEISS Presents All-New LRP S5 - FFP Riflescopes for Long-Range Precision Shooting and Hunting

    If individuals can't gauge optical quality by "looking", as in comparing between them, what is the purpose of increasing quality if it will be unperceivable to to the end-user? Perhaps that portion of the budget should be used in different ways to improve riflescope design?

    ZEISS Presents All-New LRP S5 - FFP Riflescopes for Long-Range Precision Shooting and Hunting

    Zeiss has been in this game for a long time under one of their other brands. Their scopes, under that other brand, were some of the most highly desired scopes at the time.

    Remington 700 Varmint SF build

    Look for a used H-S Precision on message boards. Take-offs go for about $250.

    New to Expander Die and mandrels

    Have you ever measured your spring-back?

    New to Expander Die and mandrels

    If you aren't annealing, its going to be hard to predict how much spring-back you'll get and thus which methods should be used. I'd recommend annealing if you want greater consistency.
