    What are your favorite barrels

    This is pretty much the current struggle. It's the man and reamer doing the chamber. (providing all the barrels are of the same or close quality; the chamber isnt the only difference between say a faxon and a bartlein)

    Solving Rear Bag Elevation Without Breaking Position

    I think to be able to get any meaningful improvement input, the shooter would have to get behind it and use it/touch it. From pictures I'm not sure there's anything we could do to help honestly. Though it's in my opinion this mechanism lies somewhere between the ear'ed bags in the last pic of...

    Toughest scope mounts?

    There are still some rings out there that must be lapped unfortunately. For ex the old issue A.R.M.S rings that were issued in the Army a while back. I was buying some a few years back, even after reading that thread on here that was trying to warn people off from that company. Yep, they were...

    Toughest scope mounts?

    I've often wondered that lol. How much 'drift' or 'creep' there was overall in metrology devices used by the NIST. Is theirs right? Checked by whos? lol

    I got a guy in NC that does mine, but admittedly, I havent done that in quite a while.

    Not sure if this classifies as vintage but it's a Stey SSG 69 PII

    My ssg69 shoots .5" groups with my handloads very easily. It is a sleeper let me tell you. One of my favorite rifles. SOO fuckin mad I didnt get what I thought was a lame attempt at updating a classic (the 'tacticool bolt knobbed, threaded muzzle w/ no iron sights) SSG from CDNN 10 plus years...

    Toughest scope mounts?

    I dont doubt Mile High's CS, but that has nothing to do with what I call the Mercedes syndrome, where one feels superior, and thus feels like their products, which arent any better than their competitors are just worth more because it has THEIR symbol on them. There's no way a 600 dollar spur...

    Do you drink anything while shooting?

    Toughest scope mounts?

    Oh and dont get a spurh. Wayy too many reports of them breaking, and NO scope mount on EARTH is worth 600 dollars even if it were made from solid Rhodium. Any man that feels his scope mount is worth 600 dollars can go fuck himself; It's a scope mount, not a part on an engine used by NASA.

    Toughest scope mounts?

    What the military uses varies WIDELY, depending on which branch and which rifle, and which requirements list. I wouldnt use them as a reference though honestly lol. You're going to get two answers there; "ive used scope mount x for 30 years with no problems." and then you're going to get "I...

    Howa 1500 builds **post them**

    I'm pretty sure all the barrel channels from B&C line up. If the stock says sporter barrel, the sporter Howa barrel will drop in. I have their 'heavy' barrel with B&Cs 'heavy' barrel channel and theres a perfect amount of clearance. Dont be intimidated about hogging out a barrel channel on a...

    I want a new bolt action rifle, looking for some advice

    This gun here: Is this a Mcmillan stock? If so, would you know what finish this is? Tried finding it at Mcmillan and all they have in OD is some odd, faded green/grey they call 'od', and it's flat too. Would you happen to know this finish by chance?

    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    I guess what I meant by questionable was, that theyre not all over the place like the other more popular brands, so their reputation (at least here) isnt 100% built up yet. You dont run across a lot of Delta scopes out in the wild yet. But if you say they're good to go, then I'm happy there's...

    Toughest scope mounts?

    Tough in terms of what? Physical impacts? Wear over time? I ask because I went down this road a few years back and realized, the mount is only as tough as the optic or the screws attaching it. Meaning, if it's an impact due to a fall, wouldnt the optic take the hit rather than the mount...

    Do you drink anything while shooting?

    I see. Yea, hot temps/humidity with pushing yourself really hard can do odd things to a body. We change over time as well. My whole life up until like 10 years ago I thrived in the heat. I could do all sorts of difficult things in the dead of summer with no ill effects. Now, if it's above...
