    Lewis Machine AR's

    Re: Lewis Machine AR's I have a LMT 14.5" upper and Defender lower, really good rifle. However if I could do it again I would get one of their MRP platforms, they seem to be such an awesome weapon system. By the time I got done tricking my 14.5" upper out it cost almost as much as what a...

    260 Remington rifles?

    Just tossing the ball around on getting my first long range/hunting rifle. I know that the 308 is a good overall option but was interested in the 260 Remington. Which rifle makers out there make a factory rifle for the 260, or is it merely a custom project? Are there some serious factory...

    .308 Rifle Opinions - LMT vs. Larue

    Re: .308 Rifle Opinions - LMT vs. Larue Honestly I would be damn happy with either of those rifles! I've got a 14.5" LMT 5.56 carbine and it is a quality piece. It sports a LaRue handguard along with other LaRue products, and they are top notch also. I know it was not too long ago over...

    Re: Remmy SPS-T and PSS....same contour barrel?? Just last week I spoke with someone from Remington and had asked them if the PSS and the Varmint SPS barrels were the same diameter and such. The guy said that they were different and that the Varmint was slightly bigger diameter and thus a...

    308 SPS-V Gunsmith question?

    Re: 308 SPS-V Gunsmith question? Does anyone know if the SPS Varmint barrel is the same diameter as the one that comes on the PSS? I was looking at the Varmint yesterday, in 22/250 not .308 like I want, but was just curious if the .308 barreled Varmint model is pretty much the same as the...

    Which caliber for first long range rifle?

    Re: Which caliber for first long range rifle? Well thanks to everyone who has given advice here for me. I currently have an AR-15 so I have the .223 covered. It's not set up as a precision rig but it does teach me trigger control and plus you can get a lot of shooting in. Someone...

    Which caliber for first long range rifle?

    Well the obvious first choice is the .308 of course. However how insane would a guy be to jump into something like the .260 Rem or 7mmWSM? Are there a reliable source for loaded ammo for both those other calibers. I don't handload but eventually would like to start. What I am looking at...

    difference between Remington 700 models?

    Re: difference between Remington 700 models? So if a guy was going to use the action for a build they are basically the same. The action and bolt are pretty much the same, right?

    Help make decision on rifle!!!!

    Re: Help make decision on rifle!!!! Wow, I am in the same boat as the OP. Would love to get a rifle for long range shooting and been looking at those three also. If I'm correct they all have a different twist rate. Which twist rate is best or is it not as big a deal as some would make it...

    Remington SPS Brothers...

    Re: Remington SPS Brothers... I've been looking at getting either one of these and was just wondering if the AAC version with the 1 in 10 twist is better for long range shooting versus the 1 in 12 of the SPS Tactical? I kinda like the threaded barrel of the AAC and would probably lean toward...

    Quality gunsmiths!

    I am looking at getting into long range shooting in the future and was just wondering who are the better most respected gunsmiths out there? And also which ones are a one stop shop versus one that just does certain aspects of putting together a build? Thanks
