    Action in mcree problem

    I got my mcree today and dropped my 700 aac-sd in and no matter how far I push the action back the recoil lug is not contacting the chassis. When shinning a flashlight in there I can see light under the entire surface. Should I bed it and forget it or what else? I was hoping it would be...

    McRee precision sale

    Mine is cause of the post office so it's no fault to anyone one else. If it's in stock order one, at sale price you can get your money out of it down the road if you decide to switch.

    Planning a shorty .308 suggestions

    I didn't want to chop my current rifle cause I wanted the longer barrel for better fps. So I went with a aac-sd and waiting on a mcree chassis which should be here this week. Have not shot it yet so hope it's not a dud but it was too good of a price to not get it. I really want a shorty rifle...

    Range Report!!My Newest Mean SOB Cadex Rifle PIC HEAVY!!!

    Wow wish I had money to do a build like that but I have in my entire rifle what it cost for just that chassis. Vary nice looking! Would hate to have a stubborn brass to extract with the machine on the bolt handle however.

    Lubes for extreme conditions

    I've had good luck with slip2000 extreme weapon lube. They claim it's good to -110f (-78c) up to +1250f. I have never taken it lower than about 0 but have had it in desert up to 130+ with good results. They say its great for dirty, dusty as well as wet and humid environments. SLIP2000 Gun...

    $1500 to work with what would you choose?

    Statement retracted Only thing I would say about the 6.5 is it has a really short barrel life. If you only going to shoot a couple times a month it would probably be fine but if your going to shoot allot then plan to save a little extra cash to get a new barrel when time comes.

    $1500 to work with what would you choose?

    Built a 700p in a mcmillan a5 with badger base tps rings and ss10x42 for about 1800ish about 7 years ago. It's been an amazing rifle. I paid 800 for my 700p so if you can get a sps that would be your budget. You could get a cheaper stock and use extra saved for a more expensive scope or just get...

    Tactical Shooters Equipment - What the pros use...

    I shoot small comps from time to time and I do it with a 308. In fact I have two 308's and thats the only caliber precision rifles I own. Here is why easy to get ammo and components to make ammo, barrel life, and it is more than accurate for my needs. Now why do I shoot comps with 308, to get...

    Looking for friendly advice on a bolt gun

    Buy a good shooting factory rifle put good glass on it and spend extra money on ammo learning to shoot the thing. Rather than go custom. Pick your flavor, Remington, Savage FN, any brand that is highly rated. I picked Remington simply because I like the Remington brand. Picked up a 700P 7 years...

    Picked up 700 aac-sd

    I looked into a credmore but the barrel life scared me away from it for now. Maybe someday. I plane to dump the barrel eventually for a 18" straight barrel. Yeah will have to play around with loads I have 168 and 175 HPBT and lapua brass which my 700p likes both.

    Picked up 700 aac-sd

    Saw one in my local gun store for 599 and could not pass it up. Was thinking about adding one to go with my 700p and for the price could not hold out. I just need to figure out what suppressor to form 4 now, was thinking a cyclone k. Once I offload one of my ar15 uppers I'm going to sell the...

    Finally time to build a new Rifle. Help/suggestions with parts?

    Yeah I understand then that makes perfect since. As to what route to take thats going to be a numbers game. You could always try and pick up a 700 action and barrel it. Ive seen them go for under $400 then barrel your arount 800 or little less probably with a decent recoil lug and someone to...

    Finally time to build a new Rifle. Help/suggestions with parts?

    Whats wrong with the SPS you have? Do you want to keep that rifle as is or are you looking at buying another rifle because the sps is not up to the standard? I am assuming by the weights of bullets and twist your shooting 308? Why not have your SPS action trued and re barreled... maybe even...

    Rifle Scopes Ss scope broke, upgrade question.

    Yeah I wish they had it when I got it but Moa mil is all there was in SS 7 years ago. 7 years no problems so I can't complain. I got an rma number so guess I'll see what they say.

    Any good sewing projects?

    Once you start stuff it's hard to stop. You end up with stuff like this and it suddenly dawns on you that you can have anything your mind can come up with for a fraction of the cost of what name brand gear goes for.

    Electronic hearing protection is damaging your hearing (range report)

    Well then any hearing protection would allow damage as electronic protection is sealed and is just cutting the sound out when it's over a certain level and allowing the passive protection to work. If it was just opposite noise wave lengths canceling out the sound and there was no passive...
