    Which McMillan?

    That was my preference also...sometimes I get hung up on aesthetics though. :)

    Which McMillan?

    I'm 6'3". I am leaning toward the A5 with an adjustable cheek piece...but if it adds a lot of weight, isn't really necessary most of the time, and rattles around, perhaps I should skip that? Also, I believe a Sendero inlet will fit my stock barrel, but should I go with the M24 inlet for...

    Ruptured Case

    I don't think it's much of a problem unless it ruptures. The cases are coated in polymer and I mainly had the ammo for carbine use. At this point I will get rid of it. From other things I have read since this happened, perhaps this gun has a slightly excessive headspace that aggravates the...

    Ruptured Case

    Hmm, alright, well clearly I'm a noob. Hadn't noticed that before. Hopefully just an extractor repair then...

    Ruptured Case

    I decided to do a little experiment today with my SPS Tactical and some Tula steel case 308. Apparently it wasn't a very good idea. My buddy was on the gun. On the second round, a lot of gas blew back in his face. I opened the bolt and the case was stuck. We removed it by popping it out...

    Which McMillan?

    It seemed like the extreme slope of the fore end on the A3/5 would be a little strange but I don't have any experience to base this on. Just eyeing it in pictures. What is it that you like better about Manners? Mini chassis or?

    Which McMillan?

    I'm thinking about a McMillan stock for my SPS Tactical. I have it narrowed down to the A3/5, A4, or A5. I would be doing a mixture of positional and bipod shooting. Any recommendations? I'm guessing the A5 is probably the best choice but I'm open to suggestions.

    McMillan lead time

    If you aren't looking for a very specific configuration you could order one that is in stock at Stocky's. I haven't tried yet myself but I was thinking about ordering either an A4 or A5 from there...haven't made up my mind which though.

    How hard is it really to be accurate at 300-400 yards with an ar 15

    If you're impressed with Walt here, check him out on the 100 yard challenge over in the Bolt Action forum.

    How hard is it really to be accurate at 300-400 yards with an ar 15

    It seems likely that Walt and Sterling are the same person, gag.

    Holy smokes, DPMS G2 rifles

    Looks nice. That Recon barrel is damn heavy though. :)

    Holy smokes, DPMS G2 rifles

    What kind of accuracy are you getting?

    Holy smokes, DPMS G2 rifles

    This seems odd to me, aren't they making the rail specifically for the G2?

    Holy smokes, DPMS G2 rifles

    Good to know on the PMAG's, I'll keep cycling them in and out.

    Holy smokes, DPMS G2 rifles

    Anyone else have the LR20 PMAG not want to fall free from these guns? Mag well is a little tight on mine. Maybe it will loosen up with use.

    Sling Studs

    I have a 700 SPS Tactical in a B&C M40 style stock. All it has are standard sling studs. What's the best method for mounting up something like a Vicker's slings (VCAS) to this gun?

    Holy smokes, DPMS G2 rifles

    Why do you guys like the 15" rails? I was debating 15" or 12" MI Keymod for an AP4 I'm going to modify.

    Scoping a Battle Rifle (308)

    Seems like a Battle Rifle would be better suited with a 1-4,6, or 8 depending on how much you want to spend.

    The world of .308 ARs - hesitant to jump in...

    Good to hear. I'm waiting to sell my Gen. I Recon to try out a Gen. II. Probably an AP4 changed to a free float tube with a 1-4 on top...a Battle Rifle type gun though, not so much a precision gun like what you are running.

    DPMS Recon Review

    That's not a Gen II.
