    AICS stock?

    Re: AICS stock? There is a WTB forum that would work better. I've had good luck find things I need, including stocks there. http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=postlist&Board=24&page=1&PHPSESSID=

    Props to Natchez Shooters Supply

    Re: Props to Natchez Shooters Supply I use them frequently, but have the opposite result. The last time I ordered some primed .45 ACP brass at the listed price and the invoice that arrived with the order had a considerably higher price charged to my account. When I called them they said...

    Gunsmithing which airbrush for finishing

    Re: which airbrush for finishing All the mentioned guns are great choices for the home user doing occasional spray job. Definitely get a moisture trap/filter, I use 2 inline I think its so important, especially in high humidity. I also recommend putting the filter as close in line to the gun...

    Gunsmithing Duracoat match for AICS FDE?

    Re: Duracoat match for AICS FDE? Wow, that doesn't look anything like my color chart for Tactical Dark Earth. The color of your barrel on my monitor has a greenish color, maybe its taking on the green of the stock or something. My color chart has a definite brownish tint. This is exactly why...

    Gunsmithing Duracoat match for AICS FDE?

    I have a barreled action in house to be Duracoated. Its bedded in an AICS 2.0 in their version of FDE. I was hoping some of the Woodland Tan that I already have would be a decent match, but no go. Has anybody tried to match the AICS FDE to a similar Duracoat color, and if so which one looks...

    RCBS Chargemaster reprogramming

    Re: RCBS Chargemaster I love mine, especially the 'auto dispense' mode. But I hear the prices are going up again, and the darn things are getting pretty expensive. Glad I got mine when I did...

    Remington 700 XCR Tactical

    Re: Remington 700 XCR Tactical I have the .300 Win Mag also and out of the box it was a tack driver no problem. The only issue I have is the muzzle jump and torque off a bipod. It's impossible to keep on target for a follow up. Needless to say, it's in the shop for a brake and a decent bolt...

    Flash Hole Prep?

    Re: Flash Hole Prep? You only need to do this once to the brass, so do it! Trim brass to length first.

    Do you F/L size new brass before loading???

    Re: Do you F/L size new brass before loading??? Yeah I do with new brass. I've gotten some recently that were in crap shape. Necks bent enough that I couldn't run then through the dies without putting a rod in the neck to open some of them up. First time, FL resize them, debur the inside...

    Newbie with fireforming and primer questions...

    Just got my first .300 Win Mag, a Remington XCR Tactical. 26" barrel. I have a few questions for you experienced guys. What recipe you guys using to fireform your new brass? I shoot the Sierra MK 175's in my .308 5R so I'm gonna start with those until I can get some heavier bullets. I used my...

    New .223 Rem, Sierra 55 gr. OAL issue?

    I got a new Weatherby TRR chambered in .223 Rem which has a Kreiger barrel, bought some factory Reminton 55 gr SP and Winchester 55 gr. Silvertip factory ammo. I also decided to load some home brew ammo to start building loads of my own. I picked up some Sierra 55 gr. HPBT bullets, some Midway...
