    Stiller Predator V action vs Remington

    Re: Stiller Predator V action vs Remington Assuming it performs satisfactory just keep it the way it is with the Rem action. Buy a Stiller anyway & start another build. I have tactical rifles built on both trued/bp'd Rem700's & Surgeon's & love them equally. Hey Poke, The Surgeon's are...

    What's a good centerfire group?

    Re: What's a good centerfire group? The ultimate question with no ultimate answer! I live watching guys at the range with huge nasty recoil monsters getting absolutely murdered with recoil & laying bullets all over the 8x11" sheet their POA target is printed on. These guys litterally are so...

    Re: Need help picking softer shooting, long range cal. I want to throw straight 243Win into the mix but I don't know if factory ammo suitable for up to 1000 yards is even available. I have been reloading from day one & I can honestly say I have never fired a factory rifle load in my entire...

    Remington sps stainless

    Re: Remington sps stainless How many (3) shot groups did you shoot that were small with the TSX's? The reason I ask is you don't want to settle with the stock/load if you only printed one group like the one in the picture you have posted.. Try the dremal clean-up as BoreSnake08 has...

    NXS 8-32x56 or rebarrel

    Re: NXS 8-32x56 or rebarrel Go 5.5-22 with the 22-250.. with the quality of glass we are talking here you will have no problem spotting hits. No question about it. I love having the extra magnification of my 8-32 NXS but I never use anything over 10x unless I'm at the bench.

    308 or 260 for tacticalrifle

    Re: 308 or 260 for tacticalrifle As crappy as this sounds you would be playing with fire if you went the 260 route for the possibility of civil court alone. The whole "why the 260 vs the 308" question would sink your defense in a civil trial no question & if it wasn't factory ammo approved...

    Accutrigger question

    Re: Accutrigger question The "Accutrigger" does bring some innovation of sorts to the shooting public but it also brings with it the potential of more problems/failures. The more moving parts you have the more likely you could run into malfunction. Imagine having your "Accutrigger" fail on a...

    Sell the .50bmg to fund a 300wm?

    Re: Sell the .50bmg to fund a 300wm? Keep the 50 & save on the side for the 300! I faced a similar scenario about 2 years ago (I do not want to discuss the details) and let my "reasoning" get the best of me. I regret the hell out of it now.
