    Suppressors Subsonic Suppressed Hunting Rifle

    If you choose to go .300 BLK, pick up the cheapest .223 Savage action or rifle you can, get a 1/8 twist 16" barrel from any number of suppliers and assemble it that way. Should be able to keep the whole cost to $600.

    Gunsmithing Probably going to burn a building down...

    I chamfer is basically a bevel that goes from one surface to the other. Think of the shoulder on a cartridge, and if it was flat after the step down to bullet diameter. Basically file a little off the edge of the flat of the pin.

    Savage Bolt Head Damaged on my brand new rifle...take a look

    On a Savage that damaged area makes no contact with any surface. It shouldn't matter. Document it and take it shooting and see if the accuracy is less than normal just to be sure.

    OK, this is rediculous! How does a guy get any trigger time with this crap?

    You people are just silly. We're at 239 inches thus far this season with 44 inches on the ground. Forecast is 18" PLUS tonight. Bitches you be trippin', you don't know how it hangs in da UP.

    .300 BLK shorty

    I'm going to run a GEMTECH Multimount on it. And yes, I'm aware that it won't be nearly as quiet as a dedicated .30 cal.

    .300 BLK shorty

    Hey there, folks. Just thought I'd post my mashup build. I have a Savage short action laying around and decided to put together a short/handy rifle. I'm getting my first suppressor (9mm) in a month or so which is rated for .300 BLK subs so I went with that calibre. Figured the supers would be...

    my first full bolt gun build, where to start?

    If you're handy, go with Savage. It's cheaper and fun to do all the work yourself. If you're going to have a smith work on it, go Remington (many gunsmiths don't even bother with Savage rifles). Remington has more aftermarket options by far. I went Savage for the ability to change anything my...

    new rifle: Sako or Savage

    If this is ALL the money you can spend, get the Savage and buy ammo/glass with the savings. The TRG is nicer, but it's not going to be enormously more accurate. If this is just a rifle budget and you have oodles of cash, get the Sako.

    Rifle Scopes is there any reason to go mil anymore?

    Re: is there any reason to go mil anymore? If you shoot at known ranges - no. You're just looking at dope and applying it for the range you know you're shooting at. For a true "tactical" rifle course with unknown ranges or "real-world" use, mil is vastly superior, as the translation of...

    Suppressed Shorties (pictures) anyone?

    Should have my first can (9mm) in the next month or two (!!!) It's rated for .30 cal subs, so I currently have a 16" .300 BLK bull barrel on my savage action. I'm in the market for a stock to complete the build and it would be absolutely peachy if you guys would post some inspirational pics of...

    Rifle Scopes New Nightforce "B.E.A.S.T." & ATACR

    Re: New Nightforce "B.E.A.S.T." & ATACR Seems like the .2 mil turret would be better if the lever had four positions; 0, .05, .1, 1.5; or else five positions; -.1, -.05, 0, +.05, +.1 Seems like they solved the "problem" of dialing more than one revolution but neglected the fine adjust...

    Re: What is the Ultimate Combat Pistol? Make your case To the Glock proponents I would counter with a PPQ. As reliable, with a better trigger and ergonomics.

    Is there an ammo ban in the works I am missing...?

    Re: Is there an ammo ban in the works I am missing...? I think the real problem is that as long as people are panicked about losing their guns, they'll buy ammo at any price, no matter how ridiculous. People will still buy all of it up. In my town, for instance, we have a Little Caesar's. $5...
