    Atlas PSR tension knob loosens, any suggestions?

    I have more or less opposite problem as OP, Kasey. On mine, I have 3, I have trouble loosening the knob enough so I can set the cant. I can get it loose but really have to wrestle the rifle until my ACD shows level. It seems to tighten either direction I turn it, with the 'loose' part...

    Carlos ? or Who?

    Two photos attached. One is most commonly seen when Carlos Hathcock is written about and in B&W (cropped) the other is in color, not cropped and mentions another sniper. Who is really in this photo? Thought you all here might be the best place to start sorting this one out. 1st time I have...

    Gunsmithing McMillan stock from FN SPR

    Hi NineHotel, and thanx for replying. Yes, aware of variants of the Win Mod 70 as I am an old guy and a fan. If I got it straight, in 1984 Win started to actually make a SA. Before they used some kind of spacer or did something to their long action to make it handle the SA carts. I do have...

    Gunsmithing McMillan stock from FN SPR

    Hello all, I've got a McMillan A3 stock that carried an FN SPR in 308 which was bedded. This stock per McMillan also works for Winchesters Model 70 short action stocks made since 1984. Does anyone know how much trouble it would be for me to have a gunsmith fit the stock to a Win Mod 70 SA...

    Best ar10 6.5 creedmoor under 3000

    Totally agree Bigjake. I got my RRA for 1040 and a short while later they stopped selling them at that price and now are up around 2K. Seekins IMO would be the better rifle, up in that price range. But at what I paid for my RRA, I am plenty happy. Nice trigger and sub MOA and no issues...

    Best ar10 6.5 creedmoor under 3000

    RRA is well built.. Shoots straight. Are there better rifles in an AR-10 ? Yes. More expensive as well. RRA's proprietary mags are 25 bucks apiece. How many do you need? Their BCG is longer than others, but, I have not seen the US mil-specs on the AR-10 platforms. RRA can build to a...

    Accessories WTB - CDI precision bottom metal for FN SPR

    You are welcome. Actually, I would rather I find another SPR or PBR action! Like I need another rifle. You probably know CDI is out of biz. I learned that looking for the BM that I am using. Sent a question to CDI and the wife replied saying the 'man' passed away. I found the BM that I...

    Following. (11B Chu Lai, 70-71, Army, Americal Division) My three friends who were snipers during this time frame carried M-14s that the unit armorer worked on- 'accuarized'. Not sure of the scope used. I am also friends with Erik Villard. He was the civilian historian for the Army and...
