    What does AMU/MTU mean?

    Re: What does AMU/MTU mean? I wouldn't say the MTU/AMU is too heavy for a match or carry rifle. I have seen a ton of rifles with these contours win their fair share of matches. If you don't want to use a brake(I hate em), adding more weight is the option for controling recoil. I weigh 130...

    Huge Disadvantage with Internal Magazine?

    Re: Huge Disadvantage with Internal Magazine? I watched more top loaders run last weekend at the K&M match than I've seen in a long time.
