    PAPAGALLOS and OGONZALEZ13 need your HELP!! DBM or Floorplate?

    I'm a detachable mag fan. I store all my rifles with an empty magazine, so leaving one at home isn't a concern for me. I don't care for fumbling around with loose rounds in my pocket. While hunting I find it much easier to just stick the loaded magazine in my pocket if I need to unload the...

    Accurate ordnance rifles?

    Wow, appreciate the flattering comments guys. I poked my head in here to look for something else and was surprised to see this thread. :-) The last three weeks have been tough for us without Woody. He was out visiting a sick relative overseas. He's back in the shop today and I am SO...

    AICS and wrist pain?

    Great info shared here. Much appreciated. To the OP, I get the same result when shooting any thumbhole stock, including the AICS. I have a bit of carpel tunnel starting in my right wrist and when I grip any thumbhole my wrist ends up canted outward away from the stock just a bit. Getting my...

    6.5 Creedmoor Ideal Barrel Length

    I went 24" on my 6.5 Creedmoor and run it with an Allen Engineering suppressor. I didn't want too long a barrel for balance reasons when running the suppressor. I'm very happy with the setup and wouldn't change it. Velocity affects trajectory. Decide how far you realistically want to shoot...

    Jewel trigger failures in the field?

    Frank makes some good points here. I personally agree with his observations. Jewell triggers are one of the brands we stock and have used in quite a few rifles per customer requests. Most benchrest rifles we build the buyer requests a Jewell and that products works well for those guys in...

    Did I ruin a great shooter?

    I agree with others suggesting something isn't torqued right. What you are describing is pretty extreme. I also agree with advice to contact the shop that did the work. If it really is a good shop, they'll make it right. Mark

    To bed or not to bed.....

    I believe you are correct on the stock and agree with your suggestions.

    To bed or not to bed.....

    Important to know what stock is on the rifle. If it is one of the plastic, flimsy stocks that lacks rigidity, I wouldn't bother with any bedding. So, what stock? Mark

    6.5 creedmore barrel suggestions

    Randy knows what he is doing and is very knowledgeable about components. Lean on him for advice and you won't go wrong. Bartlein barrels are outstanding performers. The barreled action is the engine of the race car. Everything else around it is the ergonomic interface by which you drive that...

    GA Hydrographics....

    Not GA Hydrographics fault! On this one. We were sending some stuff to GA Hydrographics and they always did a quality job. Never a complaint about that. But the turnaround was sometimes longer than we needed. Another shop started doing some work and we decided to give them a try, which was...

    Help With Build

    A medium contour is the perfect contour (IMHO) for a multipurpose rifle. A Remington Varmint or Sendero. Rock Creek's Sendero is slightly thicker than what Bartlein calls a Sendero. Brux didn't make that "Sendero" until we asked them to do so, and now they call it the Accurate Ordnance...

    My Manners ordeal at stocky's stocks: UPDATED WITH MESSAGE FROM STOCKY'S

    That is pretty stand up of the Stocky's Pres. Good for him. Now, regarding Tom Manners, I am not surprised in the least by him stepping in to help. That is just how Tom conducts business and treats people. I've seen Tom and Matt at Manners go well above and beyond for customers many times...

    brux barrels

    Oh, dude. Okay. I'm on it. :-) The last few weeks I've been running crazy with some family stuff through holidays. Trying to catch up. Hope Woody is taking good care of you. I'll see what is going on with your project and will ping you off-line. Our 6CM reamer is a shooter for sure.

    Manners New Elite 2.5lb Folding Stock

    We are building our TMR (Tactical Match Rifle) on a T4A in Dark Forest. The first rifles were built just before Thanksgiving and we've had a lot of local guys get to handle the rifles. Everyone has liked the new camo pattern. As Thomas mentioned, it is very effective out on the woods. Our...

    brux barrels

    Brux didn't make the exact contour Rock calls a "Sendero". So, we had them start making it. :-) Rem Varmint: 1.250" Cylinder diameter 2.200" Cylinder length .830" at muzzle (at 26") AO Varmint: 1.250" Cylinder diameter 3.000" Cylinder length .875" at muzzle (at 26") Fairly slight...
