    Savage 110BA 338 Lapua = 2 MOA rifle???

    Re: Savage 110BA 338 Lapua = 2 MOA rifle??? You don't think the lapua and 250gr can get to a mile? My buddy gets his .338 RUM and .250gr Match Kings well passed a mile. Heck people are getting standard short action rounds to a mile. If you aren't trying to kill anything just about any...

    a Mauser action and new build?

    Re: a Mauser action and new build? Grab the stock for that action off the mcmillan specials page. Order a less expensive but still good barrel blank. I have had great luck with mcgowen and shilen with hunting rifles, there are others. Get it chambered in .270win/280rem/280AI/30-06 and bed...

    a couple weird questions about my build

    I have a couple questions and I figure that this is the best site to get the answers. First: A long time ago I seen a rifle built on a surgeon action. The barrel had minimal taper and was fluted to match the bolt. I thought this was very sharp looking and always wanted to have one built like...

    Oh the agony......

    Re: Oh the agony...... Buy a cheap old non spec remington action. Spin the barrel off your nice one put it on the other action and put it in the stock and bingo. You have your spec action and a nice rifle.

    Catastrophic Bolt Damage on my FNSPR

    Re: Catastrophic Bolt Damage on my FNSPR glad you posted cause I thought I was doing something wrong. To the OP if you didn't miss print your load data you were running very HOT loads. And yes it's possible to go over max loads and into dangerous pressures without ovious pressure sighns...

    Any reviews for this muzzle brake ?

    I like the look of the Gentry B.A.T. brake but I am more worried with function over looks. Anybody have a review or seen one in action? It's for a .300 WM. Thanks

    I have done a search and am now going to start researching. I have decided after playing with factory actions I am ready to step up to a custom action for a build. Is there any other actions that I should consider other than what I have listed? Price of $1500 or less. Surgeon 591 Stiller Tac...

    Remington 5rSS .308 400 yard

    Re: Remington 5rSS .308 400 yard the point of reloading is to fine tune a load for your rifle. There are always standbys that shoot pretty good in all rifles. But if you want to take your rifle to the next level build a load for your rifle. Thats my opinion YMMV Good luck

    Gunsmithing Guys that work with AI magazines

    I had my heart set on the McMillan A-3 stock for my new coyote rifle build but was told it's not availiable with savage's new bottom metal. I can get bottom metal that will work with my action and the A-3 but it's expensive ($500) I don't mind paying but only if there is a good chance it will...

    I am about to pull the trigger on a A-3 and I would like to get a snow themed marble stock but am worried about how it will look. There are alot of proven combos that look good. Its going to be over 800 dollars by the time I get it to Canada so It's hard to take a chance. So if you have one...
