    New Rem 700 SPS Heavy BBl Varmint

    Re: New Rem 700 SPS Heavy BBl Varmint Thanks for the positive comments. I bought the Rem 700 SPS today. Some of the more immediate choices I have to make are scope, base, and rings. I have a 5.5x22x56 Nightforce on my M1a which I love, but it's heavy. I might go for a Vortex-Viper-PST for...

    Turners Outdoorsman has new .308 Rem 700 SPS Heavy BBl (.820) Varmint rifles on sale for $494. I think I will buy one after work today. This will be my entry into long range shooting.

    Suppressors Any one want to talk me out of a Taurus 1911

    Re: Any one want to talk me out of a Taurus 1911 I agree with Switchbale. Get the Springfield, and when ever you have a few dollars you want to throw at it, sent it back to SA and have them work on it. SA gunsmiths do great work, at a great price, their work is covered under their no BS...

    Muzzle brake on a AR?

    Re: Muzzle brake on a AR? @ BigJoe, Hahaha, I knew as I was writing my post that asking about a muzzle brake for a 5.56 that I sounded too tacticool/poser-ish. On the other hand, asking a question like that on this forum, I felt like I would get a straight answer rather than what I would get...

    Muzzle brake on a AR?

    I'm building a 5.56 varmint/precision AR. I have JD Machine upper and lowers, and a free floated 24" ss fluted barrel. I will buy a Magpul PRS stock for it. I am researching triggers, and muzzle brakes. What trigger should I get? Should I have the bbl end threaded for a muzzle brake? What brake...

    SS action and bbl, or carbon steel?

    I want to start shooting precision/benchrest, so I'm doing research prior to buying a bolt action .308. I have a few questions to start off. What will give a longer service life, a SS or carbon steel bbl? Is fluting "worth" it? I tried to do a search on the SS bbl question but didn't have much...
