    Gunsmithing Correct barrel blank length??

    Yes I believe most barrel manufacturers make the blanks 1" longer than the finish length, you are good to go.

    Impact Precision Action?

    How is my response the reason many shy away from being honest about products. I am encouraging you to be honest about the product so that others can gain insight from your experience.

    Impact Precision Action?

    I feel like this statement is completely useless without any details. Either keep it to yourself or at least provide the details so that other readers can gain something from it. That's like those 1 star amazon reviews with no text lol.

    Rifle Scopes Need help finding a good value ($350) longer range mil mil scope for .222

    Yeah check out the Athlon Midas BTR that cameraland has on sale... it is regularly like $550, and it is on sale for $335 so its right in your budget. Seems like a pretty decent score for your price range and it has a lot of features.

    Rifle Scopes Need help finding a good value ($350) longer range mil mil scope for .222

    If you had to spend less $350 or less, you would be hard pressed to find anything with better durability/reliability/tracking than the SWFA SS line. I would look at the 10x/12x models, as I have heard that the 16x's optical clarity and resolution suffers a bit with the high mag. The other...

    Grayboe Stocks?

    That is going to be a nice setup, you will be happy with the atlas sitting in a grayboe. Might be worth having it bedded up nicely, it really does make a difference and I think that Atlas Tactical deserves it!

    Bighorn TL3 / XLR Shouldered and Prefit Switch barrel testing/review

    @padom any chance you can re-upload your OCW target pics? Looks like most of them aren't showing anymore, curious to see some of your charge weights with H4895.

    LRI's ELEMENT Rifle Stock.

    Okay I see what you are saying. That's a really neat concept. Would love to hear more details about something like this and how it holds up over time.

    LRI's ELEMENT Rifle Stock.

    I would be curious to hear more about this as well. I believe Foundation stocks also state that no pillars or bedding is required due to their construction as well. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the purpose of pillars in a composite/polymer/wood stock is to have a rigid support between...

    Defiance Action - Cerakoted and rough - Need Help

    I think he was probably referring to other coatings/treatments such as DLC or nitriding. Those are probably the two most common receiver/action coatings available from the manufacturers.

    Rifle Scopes DMR II Pro 3.5-21x50mm

    Yeah my DMR2 starts tunneling right around 4x... when looking through the scope and rotating the magnification ring, it seems like a shit ton cause it is a long travel of adjustment at the low powers, but when I lift my head and check its only starts around 4, maybe 4.25x. I also notice that...

    LRI's ELEMENT Rifle Stock.

    Congrats on your new venture! Gotta say that's a beautiful looking stock. That first picture showing the inletting looks amazing. Very interesting that pillars and bedding is not required with this construction. Also liking the design of the DBM and mag release. Glad you will be supporting...

    Rifle Scopes DMR II Pro 3.5-21x50mm

    @slkzic thanks for the report! So your saying the new DMR2 Pro has absolutely no tunneling at low power? And also no CA that you could notice? These are two of the biggest "complaints" that people have with the DMR2 (I have one as well and can confirm these things). Have you had experience...

    Gunsmithing TL3 in 223 wil not CRF from the mag

    @bohem Do you mean remove the mechanical ejector? The push-feed bolt head that I got from BH has a slot for the mechanical ejector, similar to the CRF head. The only thing I needed to do for the conversion is swap the bolt head out. The push-feed bolt heads are also symmetrical and can be run...

    Gunsmithing TL3 in 223 wil not CRF from the mag

    I had pretty much the same issue with my TL3 recently. Your's actually looks to be "closer" to properly functioning than mine was with my mags. Bighorn thought the entrance chamfer to my chamber was causing the round to stick. I did a feed test with the extractor removed from the bolt head...

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    For those curious... All TL3's are only offered as CRF to my knowledge... BUT, Bighorn has manufactured some push-feed bolt heads that they specifically made for the 223AI cartridge because of some feeding difficulties that some users of that cartridge have experienced. I am not sure if they...

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    Here's my 223 built on a DLC'd TL3. Manners T4A, 24" 7.7 twist M24 contour Bartlein barrel, chambered by Greg @ SPR. I was having some feeding issues and I am actually running a push feed bolt head from Bighorn now without any issues. Greg was able to get the CRF to run with some of his...
