    Titanium bolt or semiauto receiver durability/wear compared to carbon or stainless steel

    Short Action Mark 4 2 Piece Bases on a Long Action Win 70

    "Hybrid" Rifle - Lightweight and Precision - Both or Neither?

    My personal solution was to use the same action and stock for two rifles; one for hunting and one for competition. I shoot an FN SPR McMillan A series in comp and I am building a 300 win Alaskan with a McMillan a3 Hunter stock in carbon fiber with a reasonable hunting scope. My .02 but there are...
