    Which high end factory rifle?

    Re: Which high end factory rifle? Something else to consider if you're really into changing calibers: get an AR-10 and change uppers as necessary. You can get a fair amount of calibers in AR-10 uppers.

    Which high end factory rifle?

    Re: Which high end factory rifle? I suppose it's worth asking how you're planning on using the rifle, and what your impressions of 'something really nice' looks like. Are you just buying the name brand and the design, or does 'nice' mean a quality rifle that shoots well? Buying the name...

    1 Bad Actor

    Re: 1 Bad Actor Those things have always looked bent to me because of the slight down angle on the buttstock. Just ain't right =)

    Muzzle Break on my AR?

    Re: Muzzle Break on my AR? It probably will affect accuracy, but for the better. You'll end up shooting better because of the reduced flinch reflex. You may have to re-try your different loads because you're changing the harmonics of your barrel, but all in all a brake is not a bad thing IMO.

    Who owns a 300 wsm ar10T?

    Re: Who owns a 300 wsm ar10T? I'd be happy if I find a 7WSM upper for my .308 upper, much less a 300 WSM. Accuracy Systems has the 300 SAUM listed as an option for their AR-18 variants: http://www.ar-10-rifles.com/index.php. They say they have other calibers as well, so you have to call...

    510 whisper teaser

    Re: 510 whisper teaser Wow that's crazy! Looks like the bullet would just fall out of the barrel in front of the rifle with that small load. Hard to believe it goes out to 800! Awesome!

    Best 45 cal AR platform?

    Re: Best 45 cal AR platform? OlyArms makes a .45 ACP upper for the AR-15, but good luck getting one, and good luck getting mags for it. You could get one of those and mod it to fit a can I suppose. I have one of those uppers, and they're actually pretty accurate and fun to shoot. I don't...

    Smoothest bolt action ever!

    Re: Smoothest bolt action ever! $5450 for the base price?!? That's a LOT to pay for a new player to the market. With brake and tac bolt you end up paying nearly $6000. For that much you can get a GAP .308 or even a Lawton/Viersco in .375 CT or .408 CT and still have a bunch of cash left...

    Kimber Advanced Tactical 300WM,

    Re: Kimber Advanced Tactical 300WM, It's pretty! =) Congrats on your purchase. I'm sure you'll be happy with it. I wonder how it compares to a factory 5R.

    "Sniper Rifle System" ???

    Re: "Sniper Rifle System" ??? The fact is that we can't control what the anti-gun crowd decides to do with their time and their money. They won't tire until they get rid of ALL guns, and they do that through a lot of scare tactics and mis-information in the media. Rest assured if they get...

    Remington 40 XB .220 swift info needed

    Re: Remington 40 XB .220 swift info needed I don't think you'll have a problem selling a 40X at all. You can always try and sell it here, or you can put it on GunBroker with a reasonable starting price and let the market decide what it's worth.

    bullet grouping question @ 100 and 300 yards?????

    Re: bullet grouping question @ 100 and 300 yards????? A lot of what you're describing sounds like over-stabilization of the bullet as it initially comes out of the barrel. I suppose the common term is 'falling asleep', but I hadn't heard that one before. It's difficult to get a bullet...

    threaded barrel accuracy

    Re: threaded barrel accuracy Your loss in accuracy may be caused by the process of threading the barrel, and not by the thread itself. Did you send it to a competent smith to have it done? I can't imagine that a threaded end would affect your accuracy all that much so long as your crown...

    Rifle Scopes Scope for a 50 BMG

    Re: Scope for a 50 BMG I have a Leup Mk4 Ultra 24x on my Robar RC-50. I've shot nearly 100 rounds through it using that scope, and I've had no issues with the scope if that's any indication of scope reliability. I don't have any experience with other scopes on the .50.
