    stock stiffener

    I stiffened up a crappy Savage stock with JB Weld and a carbon arrow shaft last year. Just the weight of the rifle caused the sporter barrel to contact the forend while resting on a bipod. After inlaying the carbon shaft, filling the voids with epoxy, and clearancing the barrel channel, the...

    Suppressors 300 Blackout SBR Suppressor

    I have an AAC Cyclone on my 8.5" 300blk Noveske and have zero complaints when firing 220gr. It is a 5/8-24 thread, but I've never really understood the attraction to brake mounted suppressors... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rifle Scopes I can't find the perfect budget scope and I know it exists.

    Yeah, I had a similar plan if I ended up having to go with a BDC. Thankfully I don't. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, I'm trying to barter my way into a SWFA SS 1-6 Cyber Monday deal. Wish me luck! Lol

    Rifle Scopes I can't find the perfect budget scope and I know it exists.

    The Viper may have to be what I settle for. I just wish they would offer the same thing in a fixed magnification. That Burris is very attractive. I don't know how I missed it. I assume it is SFP? I've already doubled his budget by allowing an extra $200 out of my pocket as a Christmas gift. An...

    Rifle Scopes I can't find the perfect budget scope and I know it exists.

    I'm looking for the perfect scope to suit my grandfather's .243 coyote killer. I need something that isn't going to lose zero banging around in the tractor cab. That's the most abuse it will see. It must have a graduated reticle that sub-tends to a round figure. Preferably not a BDC that...

    Changing legs on Harris bipod?

    I haven't ever swapped legs, but I have pulled the legs out and chopped them down a couple of inches. The only downside to chopping them is that the legs will pull out (spring still attached) if you fully extend them. Not really an issue for me though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Suppressors SWR Spectre II - Update

    Andrew, I have another question for you. I have a 5.56 AR that I frequently use a .22lr conversion in. I will be using the Spectre II on it quite often. Would you consider the Spectre II thread spec to be adequate for hosting a heavy .30 or .223 suppressor? If not, would you consider the .400"...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Springfield XD-S Recall

    From the little bit that I've heard about it, you will only have issues if you let off of the grip safety before the trigger resets while the action is cycling..... Or some sort of weird shit like that. It would be hard to do on purpose, much less on accident. I wouldn't send one back until they...

    Rifle Scopes I'm so tired of Butler Creek

    Jon, add another customer to the list! The price tag might be hard to swallow, but if the damn things actually work and you can guarantee them, I can live with $50 a pop. I typically only break the BC oculars. If I make the mistake of throwing the sling over my shoulder while the ocular is...

    MOA Picatinny base is too long (eye relief issue)

    I've cut a lot of aluminum with carbide too. Most of the time it works fine. I've had a few occasions where I was cutting an odd shape or and odd angle and a tooth caught the material and yanked it hard enough to bend, break, or take a large chunk out of the work piece. I wouldn't hesitate to...

    Hornady OAL thread size ?

    If I remember correctly, isn't the shaft long enough to cut off the end and cut new "non weird" threads on it?
