    A different experience with an online purchase...

    I've heard a lot of horror stories about buying "Custom" rifles online from popular auction sites. I just want to share my story. This is gonna get wordy... A few months ago I saw a rifle online that looked interesting. It was supposedly made by a company called "Accra-Liance Sniper Systems". I...

    Mcmillan Tac 308 or GAP HRT

    Re: Mcmillan Tac 308 or GAP HRT While I agree that GAP is every bit as good as if not better than McMillan, personally I'd get the McMillan. There are two reasons for me. First, McMillan has more history. Including a Military presence... And not just with Stocks. Back when I was in the Corps...

    I have a measurement question for you guys

    Re: I have a measurement question for you guys Measuring with a tape measure, my A5 (which I'm pretty sure will be the same as an A4) is 1 5/8" from the mid-point of the trigger straight back to the face of the grip. Honestly though, that measurement will be different with different...

    I think I just had an epiphany (bolt vs gas gun)

    Re: I think I just had an epiphany (bolt vs gas gun) Let me throw this into the equation... It's my understanding that when gas enters the bolt carrier from the gas tube, it actually pressurizes the space behind the bolt and holds the bolt forward and locked until the pressure is diminished...

    bolt hard to close/extract 308 plz read

    Re: bolt hard to close/extract 308 plz read I believe neck sizing dies only squeeze the neck so the projectile doesn't fall in. The concept is that fire-formed brass fits your chamber more exactly. Neck sizing keeps that fit. You should be able to get away with neck sizing at least a few...

    I think I just had an epiphany (bolt vs gas gun)

    Re: I think I just had an epiphany (bolt vs gas gun) I've chewed on this quite a bit in recent years. When you rule out all external variables, it can only be the number of moving parts and the vibration caused by that movement that reduces accuracy in gas-guns. I believe it's ALL of the...

    remy 40-x bolt action with shilen barrel 308

    Re: remy 40-x bolt action with shilen barrel 308 OK... Now I understand. With the exception of a new or newly re-surfaced bolt face, I haven't seen a Remington bolt face that DOESN'T have a ring on it. All of mine do and always have... to some degree. Unless it's unusually deep, I wouldn't...
