    Another DIY Remington 700 Bolt Knob Install (Pic Heavy)

    It looks great. For most things like this I figure if it passes the arms length test that is plenty good enough for me. I.E. if it looks good at arms length its good to go.

    Bipod Choice

    I love the atlas on my M2008 but I also use and love my harris bipods. I see the harris to be quicker to deploy but the atlas is a little more versatile. In my personal opinion I prefer the way the atlas loads over the harris as it has a little fore/aft play and so when you lean into it you...

    stock stiffener

    I have a friend that did 2 part epoxy mixed with lead shot to add weight to his 22mag in the buttstock. We then chopped the forend just forward of the recoil lug and mounted the bipod there it looks a little funky but its pretty damn stable and accurate.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns looking for edged weapon/tool to cary in truck or BOB

    Perhaps look into a surplus entrenching tool. Quite an effective weapon as I understand it and a usefull tool as well.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Carry knife preferences

    I currently carry a CRKT Shenanagin Its a decent knife for the price and I have always had good luck with the CRKT brand. I have been seriously considering adding something like the fox krambit to my carry but that would be an addition not a replacement.

    Any regrets going custom?

    I went with crescent customs in my build and have zero regrets. The rifle looks great shoots great feels great. It's also nice to often have one of the coolest guns on the range. Sent from my iPad autocorrect at your own risk.

    Mag primers in a non mag cartridge

    With all the recent mass buying primers are hard to find as I am sure you all know. Locally I can find magnum primers with no issues. Does anyone have any experience with using magnum large rifle primers in non magnum primers like .308 or 6.5 creedmoor. I had considered just starting at a min...

    Hogue Over-mold Stock Mod - Pistol Grip Extension

    I have never completely remolded any but I have heated and adjusted the molding basically remolding items before on items that didn't fit perfectly. Sent from my iPad autocorrect at your own risk.

    Opinions on optics

    Well the NF NSX is SFP I am pretty sure. Personally I LOVE the vortex razor HD its a great scope. I have one on my 6.5 creed and wouldnt go any other route for that price range. It is a little heavy for a hunting gun but it is definitely a quality piece of glass. Another to look at if you...

    22 LR Upper?

    I am just running a drop in conversion bolt form CMMG. It is by no means a tac driver but I have no issue with it running falling plates or anything of that nature. The nice thing about that particular setup is you keep your rifle basically feeling exactly the same with all the accessories you...

    Rifle Scopes Recommended tool for general torquing of scope/rifle?

    I have a wheeler now as soon as I save up the money I will be ordering a borka with the full accessory kit. The wheeler will work for basic scope mounting but the borka will do all your action screws etc as well. Plus the borka is set up to easily toss in your range bag or even a stock pack if...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns i love having nightmares

    I really like the 1911s although the p938 just looks fugly to me but then again I think my glock 34 is a sexy beast so my views may be skewed. I will have to seriously look at the full size 1911 when I finally break down and get a 1911.

    Recommendations on small medic pouch

    It might also be worth talking to your team medic or whoever provides medical training to your team. Things like an NPA are great but if your team isnt trained on them they might not be the best idea. Same goes for things like a decompression needle without proper training it may not be...

    Gunsmithing 6.5x47 lapua question

    6.5 Creedmoor is another great option that shares a bolt face with a .308 with the advantage of using large rifle primers so no need to mess with the firing pin or anything. As for a smith I used Crescent Customs for my last build and couldnt have been happier with the build quality or the...

    Gunsmithing Cratering Primer

    Why exactly are you trying to fix it? If it is showing up due to high pressure then you should be addressing this through load development. If its just showing up because your firing pin hole is a little wider then your firing pin I dont see the reason to fix it. I have a couple rifles that...

    Hunting & Fishing HELP! 6.5 Creedmoor hunting bullet selection?

    I guess I am going to have to develope a decent hunting load for my 6.5 beasts. My bolt gun currently loves the 142gr SMKs but I havent heard any thumbs up for them guess I will have to mess with the bergers or amaxs.

    6.5creedmoor vs 260rem for long range competition

    6.5 Creedmoor is my favorite but all of the above are great options and quite similar. Creedmoor seems to really be taking off in popularity so hopefully we will start seeing even more components becoming availble for it.
