    SS Barrel matched with a standard action

    Remington Model 7?

    Re: Remington Model 7? wow not all M7 and M700 triggers are identical. they may fit the reciever, but to put an aftermarket M700 trigger into a M7 stock/bottom metal, you will probably have to work on it. Jewell sells a different model for the M7. a Timney will need the lower front corner...

    Question AICS recoil lug inlet

    Re: Question AICS recoil lug inlet i have had to fit an oversize lug into an older AICS. i chucked the barreled action in a lathe and faced the front (muzzle side) of the recoil lug until it fit. .186" IIRC. this left the stock untouched, and the operation only took 30 minutes or so.

    What is the purpose of a short magnum?

    Re: What is the purpose of a short magnum? here is a short mag cartridge that pre-dates rick's patent, yet still infringes so who is really "stealing"? did rick steal Lazzeroni's concept? it seems so to me.

    What is the purpose of a short magnum?

    Re: What is the purpose of a short magnum? probably had this same argument when the .300 Win Mag came out. after all what can the .300 Win Mag do that the .300 H&H can't, except fit into a shorter action?

    Re: 6.5mm twist rate advice 1:8 or 1:8.5" i run 6.5 bore tubes in 1-8", 1-8.5" and 1-9" 8" is my default nowadays. i see no downside 8.5" works almost as well my 9" twist would stabilize 140 SMKs, but not the 142s
