    Army M24 Build Thread

    I do the shaping, low psi glass bead and parkerizing here at home. A little time consuming but nothing bad.

    Army M24 Build Thread

    Finished up modding a WB490 rear and swapped out the OK Weber bases. Wanted to return this to an early issued configuration. Rifle has small logo buttpad, Dakota bottom metal, 1989 Ultra M3a and rings/bases. Just received a 1995 dated sling and old style Allen case to finish it up. Was also...

    Army M24 Build Thread

    Mine (M24r) is set at 3#. I can sneak it into the .3s for 5/100m Not sure a lighter trigger will help me any.

    Want a good RELIABLE battle rifle that shoots a bit better than my SCAR17

    I have a Nav-spec on mine so I'm not too worried about it.

    It's not terrible. A little ass heavy but not bad.

    Want a good RELIABLE battle rifle that shoots a bit better than my SCAR17

    My first (and only) Scar is the 20. Wanted a semi 762 for the collection and bought one on a whim. It has made a believer out of me Re semis. With Mk316, Sig 175 OTM, PMC Match 168s and FGMM 168s, it just flat shoots. Great trigger, ergos are good and knocks down surprisingly small groups...

    Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

    After a lot shorter time than I expected- RWS hit me up last night letting me know my rifle is done. Haven't been this excited for a while for a new build. My plan is to clone the pictured rifle.

    Is there an SR-25 vs. SCAR-20 thread?

    I don't have a lot of time behind 25s. I do own a 20. It has completely changed my mind on 762 gassers. I wasn't ever really interested in one prior to this. Trigger is fantastic. Action, controls and fit/finish are all great. Barrel swaps are stupid easy. Now down to accuracy. Mk316, Sig...

    Van Orden Winchester M-70 's

    Lyman STS 12x and 20x were used by the USMC a good bit. I managed to get the records for my 12x showing USMC purchase in 1967

    SCAR 20S first range session

    Mine has left me totally impressed. Fantastic trigger and I've been able to sneak it into the .5s on occasion with Mk316 ammo. Most groups hover around .7s Best group to date below was off the bench at 200m

    Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

    248 is some pretty spicy ammo from what I've read. If anyone has a box or two, even empty (191 as well), I'd love to pick some up for display. I try and get all the various kit items for my rifles to include ammo. The 248 and 191 have proven tough to find so far.

    Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

    Thank you. RWS is currently building my Mod 0 as we speak. A buddy had his done by him as well and, like yours, it's an absolute hammer. Looking forward to getting mine back.
