    The Better Round

    Re: The Better Round <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Cartman</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I believe use of the 30-06 fell out of favour because the .308 was noticeably more accurate. Some believe the shorter fatter case and its effects is...

    The Better Round

    Re: The Better Round I think it's fair to point out that 'superior round' is in the eye of the beholder. For some, 'superior' means reaching out the farthest with the most impact energy possible. For others, 'superior' means mobility and the ability to carry more ammo while delivering...

    Thinking of Upgrading to a 50 BMG

    Re: Thinking of Upgrading to a 50 BMG I have a Robar RC-50, and it's an outstanding rifle! 1/2 MOA accuracy guarantee from the factory, and in reality it's more accurate than that. @OP: you should think about your goals for this rifle carefully because, like others said, the initial...

    Finally!! I was able to build a damn rifle!

    Re: Finally!! I was able to build a damn rifle! Nice stick! Will that long barrel be an issue when you take it hunting? My 30-06 has a 22", and it's just short enough not to get snagged in the brush.

    Which would you prefer Bartlein or Lilja barrels?

    Re: Which would you prefer Bartlein or Lilja barrels? I have a Lilja chrome-moly barrel in my Robar RC-50, and it shoots fine. If you have a barrel maker that understands the limitations for each process, and has a method for mitigating the impact of those limitations on the barrel quality...

    AR-15 - Looking for Top Accuracy

    Re: AR-15 - Looking for Top Accuracy I have a 1:7 OlyArms PCR-1, and it's sub-MOA accurate with factory heavy bullets, and 1/4-MOA accurate with 80 gr VLD handloads. It's a 24" bull barrel of no special distinction, but it's been cryo'ed. The 80's hold really well to 600 yards if you get...

    Subsonic in AR10?

    Re: Subsonic in AR10? I imagine you might have some issues cycling the spring, but I haven't shot any yet so I'm not 100% sure.

    Civilian Marksmanship Program

    Re: Civilian Marksmanship Program Great program. Getting ready to order my first M1 Garand through them. At some point they'll run out of these historic rifles, then it'll be really difficult to get your hands on one without shelling out $2k at least.

    What to build? Need advice please...

    So I was cleaning my bolt hunting rifle the other day, and I realized there were no markings on it other than the caliber (30-06). Out of curiosity I took off the scope mount, and discovered that it's built on a Model 1917 action. I'm guessing it's some sort of a sporter version of the 1917...

    Re: FNG on the block =) Some of my other toys: That's an OlyArms PCR-1 that I'm rebuilding with a California-approved Kaiser OLL lower. Got it to .192" 5-shot group at 100 yards with 80-grain bullets and custom loads. I've put aside reloading for a while (apartment living... =/), but I...

    FNG on the block =)

    Hey all. Ran across this forum a few months back and been checking it out for a while. Just wanted to say 'Yo!' I've been doing precision long-range shooting for some time, and love it. Not much tactical shooting, mostly long-range paper punching. Here's one of my jewels: It's a Robar RC...
