    Rifle for the wife?

    If recoil is an issue, a 260 with a heavy barrel and stock should be fine(even w/out a break). 6.5 CM is good also. Tried and true 308 w/ a break would also be fine. But have you thought about a 243? Even less recoil than a 260, good ballistics with heavier bullets. Like really good along with...

    Want to buy a new custom rifle

    Few questions, what is the average range you expect to shoot? How big of a concern is weight? While you think about those here would be my preferred setup for what you have mentioned above: 260, it will serve you well on most game you intend to hunt. Elk for sure but Moose and Bear not at all...

    SPUHR or AI Picatinny Scope Mount

    SPUHR all the way. The AI mount works for holding the scope and works well. But so does just about any other quality set of rings on the market. My issue with the AI was that it puts the scope excessively high and took up all of the rail space on my AW. I couldn't run an ACI and level, I was...

    260 remington vs 6.5 creedmoor

    How many other threads are on this same topic? And they all say the same thing over and over. Read Zak's article on the 6.5 comparison between the CM, Lapua and 260. Compare the cases for each, pick the one you think you'll like best(because you will end up loving it) and run with it. I went...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Need a full size .40 S&W which one Springfield XDM.M&P or a Glock

    Might be a dumb question but have you played with all three and felt overall ergonomics? I like the design of the M&P but personally don't shoot them well. The XD for me feels too weird(don't know if it's grip angle or what)and I don't shoot them consistently. The Glock may not have the best...

    Why I like shopping with MHSA

    I love MHSA. The soon to be ex-wife probably not a fan of them or the AW260, Nightforce, SPUHR, Atlas combo I replaced her with or the fact that every time I called MHSA, my card would hemorrhage and three days later a package would show up. Gotta love the crew at Mile High.

    Bushmaster 5.56 M4 - Need to rebuild forearm

    First question, is this a serious post. Assuming yes, BCM barrel, 7" twist mid-length gas system, compensator of your choice, low profile gas block, troy, Samson or any other rail of your choice. Yes you can order just the barrel, assuming you intend to mount a Surefire suppressor, probably...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce need help!!!

    Read the instruction manual that came with the scope, it states to use the flat bottom(under the turret housing) to line up the scope for proper horizontal and vertical alignment. If you try this and it is still off, call Nightforce. They will make it right.

    Chambering Issue When Neck Sizing Lapua Rem 260 Cases

    Bump the shoulder or full length size every time. Problem solved. Then sell the neck sizer and use the cash for another box of bullets.
