    *Announcing the 2009 Sniper's Hide Build Rifle *

    Re: *Announcing the 2009 Sniper's Hide Build Rifle * Chris, I really don't know what you are asking. Could you clarify? There is an anti-bind rail in the left raceway, as well as holding the proper tolerances to keep things running smoothly. Part of having smooth bolt operation is keeping...

    Re: *Announcing the 2009 Sniper's Hide Build Rifle * To answer a few questions. The weight of the rifle as I had it before shipping to Frank was 14.2LBS. That included a Harris bi-pod, a Leupold Mark 4 4.5-14x50 M1 scope with sunshade and steel rings. The fill on the stock will be the...

    Re: New M118LR loading from Federal In the online Hodgdon manual, it lists 8028xbr as 42.5 2664 fps and 61,800 psi for a 308 win 175smk. You have to go into the loading section and choose the specific cartridge, then scroll down to 175smk.

    Rifle Scopes Video Review - Vortex Razor HD 5-20X Pt 1

    Re: Video Review - Vortex Razor HD 5-20X Pt 1 Yes I designed and manufacture the action as well as many of the parts associated with the rifle. It is designed the way I would want a rifle to be for hard core applications. I honestly asked Frank if he was going to drop the rifle from the tower...

    Short is Smart - SHR Test Build 18" 260

    Re: Short is Smart - SHR Test Build 18" 260 Jasonk is correct, 3 lug 2 front 1 rear, 90 degree throw. When Frank posts for the build, it will include all of the detailed information on the action, and specs for the rifle. Part of the sucess of the 260 in an 18 inch barrel is the 5R...

    Rifle Scopes Video Review - Vortex Razor HD 5-20X Pt 1

    Re: Video Review - Vortex Razor HD 5-20X Pt 1 Jacob must have a tourque wrench in his wrist, because there sure is not one in the bolt handle. Thanks so much for all of the kind words on the rifle. And thanks to Frank and Jacob for doing what they do. I will be putting together all of the...

    Range Report New M118LR loading from Federal

    Re: New M118LR loading from Federal I have no idea what powder it is. I "think" that it is 4064, with 3031 still deeply on the mind. The main reason that I think it is 4064 over 3031, is that on the first page Emilio stated: <div class="ubbcode-block"><div...

    Range Report New M118LR loading from Federal

    Re: New M118LR loading from Federal No where have I suggested that the powder is H1000. I am sure it is not H1000. And I know that you think that it is 3031. I am aware of burn rates and what powders are appropriate for what cartridges. I will start by saying this, very few people on this...

    Range Report New M118LR loading from Federal

    Re: New M118LR loading from Federal First of all, I am not an expert in this field. Just tying to fill in the gaps of information. (Which is probably a big mistake) If the same coatings or additives did not work for both types of powders and relative case volumes, I would bet that “they”...

    BEST short action MAGAZINE FED for long range work

    Re: BEST short action MAGAZINE FED for long range It is a completely different inlet, but is simplified by having parallel sides. So the set up on a manual mill is easy. Quite a bit a material needs to be removed from the stock.

    Range Report New M118LR loading from Federal

    Re: New M118LR loading from Federal Okay, Pulled out some Varget and IMR4064. Tried to take pictures, but couldn't get anything of value. The IMR4064 is graphite in color and about 1/3 longer than Varget. Same shape otherwise. Also, These loads for the military are going to be loaded to max...

    Range Report New M118LR loading from Federal

    Re: New M118LR loading from Federal IMR4064 has been my go to powder for a while now. It used to be Varget, but availability issues... I like having cases 100% full. No more, no less. I do get tempted by WW748 or BLC-2. Just from a metering standpoint.
