    Accurate Mag 338LM Magazine in Surgeon LA DBM

    Has anyone used an Accurate Mag 3.715 or 3.85 338LM magazine in Surgeon's long action DBM? I really want to use the Surgeon bottom metal, but want to be able to load longer bullets. I'd like to hear any feedback about these magazines and the Surgeon DBM. Thanks.

    Question about the Wyatt Magazine Converstion

    Re: Question about the Wyatt Magazine Converstion Chris, As far as I understand, the only mags that work with the Wyatt's system are their mags. AI's won't fit.

    Looking for an answer to a DBM and stock question.

    Ok, so here's the situation: I got an incredible deal on a McMillan A5 stock for a 700LA with the thumbwheel cheek piece and spacer system for my Remington 700P 338 Lapua. The only problem is it is inletted for Badger M5 bottom metal. Now, I hear the Badger bottom metal is great, but I want...

    Rifle Scopes How many PST FFP's hit the market

    Re: How many PST FFP's hit the market I got two of the PST's in FFP 4-16. The first one had an issue on a lens, but Scott was very quick to replace it and I had the new one in hand within a week. The scopes are fantastic and for the money, you just can't beat it. The biggest complaint has...

    “How often do you clean your barrel ??????”

    Re: “How often do you clean your barrel ??????” You'll find a lot of opinions on this matter, but I am an LE sniper, and I can tell you I clean my barrel after every shooting session and I punch the bore before I start a new session to ensure that the bore is the same for every cold bore shot.

    Re: Vortex Viper PST 4-16X50 FFP Initial Impressions I just wanted to chime in on this doom and gloom thread. I'm the "other guy" with the broken PST. I called Scott at Vortex this morning and he was very apologetic and they sent me a replacement out today and I should have it in a few...

    Rifle Scopes Got my Viper PST FFP in 4-16, disappointing though

    Re: Got my Viper PST FFP in 4-16, disappointing though Here's the best I could do tonight. The scope isn't mounted on a rifle so I just had it rested on a step stool. The first picture is through the ocular lens and the second is through the objective.
