    How does a Remington 5R like 168gr ammo?

    Re: How does a Remington 5R like 168gr ammo? Every rifle is different. The only one I have ever had my hands on shoot everything you fed it like a hammer. If you have it laying around shoot it. Then buy 175's, they don't cost any more to load or buy loaded ammo. So why not. JAA

    M24 Scope base advice needed

    Re: M24 Scope base ad vice needed Curnow26, Just to be sure you do know there is a difference in a MK4 M3 and a MK4 M3A which is the correct optic for the M24. I am not trying to be a know it all, but don't want you to not realize the difference. I know I did not at one point. JAA

    M24 Scope base advice needed

    Re: M24 Scope base ad vice needed Go with the one piece base. If you can't find the Leupold go with the Badger. If you post a WTB thread one here I am sure one will pop up. As stated above if you are going to use the M3A you need the 0 MOA base. If not you may want a 20 MOA depending on...

    338 Lapua barrel length?

    Re: 338 Lapua barrel length? Thanks for the help guys. It seams to be a major difference of opinion on this question in the thread. If it only is loosing 20-40 fps per inch. I was loading my hand loads down to get to the velocity I wanted so it sounds like I will have room to spare. I...

    338 Lapua barrel length?

    This may have been already discussed here but I can't seem to find anything on it. I have a 338LM the barrel is 26" from the recoil lug, and a TRG break on it now. I am having a surefire Break added. Was wondering what would be the best length to have it cut to since it will have to be redone...

    GAP M40A3

    Re: GAP M40A3 Go with the S&B 3-12 x50 MTC, much more user friendly scope. MST-100 is great if you want a vintage look and want a pre 2006 M40A3 but for the difference in cost you might as well get the more advanced optics. Just my .02 cents. JAA

    Am I straight on my rifle?? (pics)

    Re: Am I straight on my rifle?? (pics) The corrected position looks better. Your hips still look a little canted to the left. It will feel different but you should notice a difference in the way you managed the recoil of the rifle when your body position is correct. The rifle will not jump...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold mk4m3

    Re: Leupold mk4m3 Jtv3062, that is what I have heard as well, but I can not say for sure. As for the cant built into the scope, I can say from my experience only use as 0 degree base if you want a 100 yard zero. I tried my M3A on my Templar action with 20 moa base and had to shim the...

    USMC trade in stocks

    Re: USMC trade in stocks As far as I know kft101 is 100% correct in his response. I am lucky enough to be the proud owner of both a M40A1 return stock and a M40A3 return stock as well. Both built by GAP. The main reason I desired to own them was knowing they are a piece of history, and a...
