    Badger Bottom Metal

    Re: Badger Bottom Metal I have a rifle with the Badger M4 and a rifle with the Manners mini-chassis (basically Badger M5). I also run Alpha mags in my manners mini-chassis. I don't reload and only shoot factory ammunition. Here are my observations: 1. Ten round magazines are nice for...

    Rifle Scopes S&B H2CMR reticle pic

    Re: S&B H2CMR reticle pic Looks very interesting, it definitely does not look as busy in that photo compared to the computer images posted. I have always preferred a Gen II mildot scope compared to a mil hash, this looks to be an improvement on the older Gen II design, plus I really like the...

    Thank you Tom Manners and Crew !!!

    Re: Thank you Tom Manners and Crew !!! NO, and I am not going to. I was worried like most guys on here initially about how it would shoot because it is not bedded, but believe me there is nothing to worry about. After you shoot yours if you still feel to the need to bed it than do it. It...

    Re: Thank you Tom Manners and Crew !!! I have two T5A's, one has the mini chassis and one doesn't. The T5A is very comfortable and the mini chassis is very accurate + versatile. I highly recommend both.

    591 Surgeon vs. GAP Templar

    Re: 591 Surgeon vs. GAP Templar I just built a rifle on a Surgeon 591 and I have no complaints at all. The only downside with a Surgeon is that you can not run AW mags only AICS mags on their action. I run a Badger floorplate so it doesn't matter to me. That is the only real advantage of...

    Rifle Scopes We no longer sell Premier Heritage riflescopes

    Re: We no longer sell Premier Heritage riflescopes "I remembered Mr. Dean, as I initially quoted him a full MAP price and he pressed the issue asking if “there was any additional discounts available for Hide members”. So we took care of him," One word here, ENTRAPMENT. It sounds like you...

    Customize 5R, buy FN Spr, or buy a used custom

    Re: Customize 5R, buy FN Spr, or buy a used custom I would skip over the FN only because you already have a decent rifle to build up. While I like what FN has done to the SPR line I just don''t think it is that much of an upgrade over a 5R with a new stock, bolt handle, bottom metal, etc...

    Movie Theater Faster

    Re: Faster Just rented it last night and have to agree, redbox or netflix is the way to go to watch this movie. Decent all around but not over the top by any means.

    Is this the right rifle for me? (FN SPR)

    Re: Is this the right rifle for me? (FN SPR) I don't need DBM, I am actually more of a floorplate guy. For the longest time there were rumors of a 10 round FN magazine being produced. After a while I lost interest because nothing came to fruition. I recently came upon this thread and saw...

    Is this the right rifle for me? (FN SPR)

    Re: Is this the right rifle for me? (FN SPR) Action guy, thank you for the info I will keep and eye out in the FS section for someone selling theirs. I have a FN PBR CRPF that is a great shooter but is limited IMO because of the factory 4rd DBM. The factory DBM is ok at best and I refuse to...
