    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    I'm still going to get it inspected so I have evidence that he didn't locate the hole correctly. I fear that he is going to refuse to replace my bolt or pay to have it repaired. His "fix" is cutting the bolt nose recess deeper into the barrel, which is unacceptable. It's also a high...

    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    Thanks for getting back to me. I will be getting the location of the hole measured by third party cmm in the next couple days. By my eyeball with my dial caliper, it appears to be about .595 to the front of the bolt lugs, which per your print should be .625. I agree that it's most likely the...

    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    Superb! @LRI I recently had a M16 extractor installed on one of my Rem 700 actions and have concerns about it. Is the tip of the extractor supposed to be proud of the bolt nose by about .030 inch or flush? In the pictures you posted of the BAT action, it looks flush. Thanks! Edit: Full...

    Building a 'Semi' accurate AR-10 in 6.5 CM

    Of those two options I would absolutely go with the Aero M5 enhanced set. I have a few. You will get a lot of nay sayers here in regards to the BA barrel. I have one of their 22 inch versions and it performed well and still does. I've detailed the load development on it through this forum...

    Hogue vs B&C

    I've got one of both. Between those two I would definitely go B&C. The only reason I have the Hogue on the one rifle is because it was the only aftermarket option available at the time. It works ok, but the B&C is by far a better choice.

    Don't underestimate the power of the algorithm. They will resort to throwing Trump votes in the trash before they are even counted.

    New truck

    Of those 3 you listed, I would go for the F150 with the 5.0 coyote. I'm a Ram guy, but I would stay away from the new Hurricane engine(s) in the Ram for now. Lots of reports of issues just after the 1k mile mark and the dealerships are stumped. My Ram has the 5.7 hemi.

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    It is (was) a daunting task for me to jump in and try it. I tried to keep it in perspective, since many of the other shooters have been in the sport for years and it shows. I am a PRS member and I agree that there should be some kind of change to make it more appealing for new shooters to get...

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    I was in this same boat. Never felt "ready" to compete. Did a lot of load development on my 6 cm rifle, but probably burned up a ton of barrel life in the process trying to get the smallest groups. I later realized that's not necessary for PRS. My first match I did get my ass handed to me...

    One Second After set in Black Mountain, NC...

    Anyone else find it interesting that the book One Second After is set in Black Mountain, NC, which is just a few miles east of Asheville, NC? If you haven't read the book, what are you waiting for?

    They used extortion to get that raise.

    Port strike coming… not going to be good!

    Not speaking to you specifically, but everyone in general... If you hit a pay ceiling and are unhappy with it, then it's time for developing new skills and start a new career. I speak from experience because that's exactly what I did. I used to be a heavy equipment mechanic and hit the...
