    Shit Mike. How'd you know I was already working that angle? 😁

    First time out with new TacOps X-Ray 51

    I just got this thing last week and couldn't get to the range due to work and family commitments until today. Didn't prepare well and was in too much of a rush. Didn't bring my tool kit out with me so I couldn't set the zero on my turrets. Was 5...

    Oh, so you've been to gardening shop too. Yeah, he was great wasn't he?

    First time out with new TacOps X-Ray 51

    I was waiting for someone to pick up on that. That was definitely an oddity. I'm 10 mins from the range and pull over to Google for "Gun shop". A place shows up on the road I'm on that I was going to pass. I thought that was strange since I've never noticed a gun shop on the way to the...

    I'm in. I still have 2 of those three boxes of 175SMK FGMM and will try to find some other match loads locally to see what works best. Will DM you to pick a date.

    Anschutz rail to Picatinny Adapter

    My TacOps X-Ray 51 came in yesterday. I will get out the camera equipment to get proper of photos of this thing, it deserves that. Anyway, it's got a full-length Anschutz rail nicely integrated under the fore-end, but I'm having a tough time finding a pic-rail to mount on it so I can use my...

    A story

    What the hell is a novella?

    A story

    Someone that works for me recently picked up a cool rifle and was telling us about it. I had to have it. I got to use it the day after it arrived and I wanted to write a cool review. As I started to type, it turned into a story that I thought some of you may enjoy. I sent it to the company...

    2 Actions, one chassis

    Pieter from Impact Shooting in South Africa (awesome YouTube channel) recently expressed his frustrations with something like this. He had a number of different barreled actions in a Remington 700 short-action footprint but only 1 chassis system for that action pattern (he had other chassis'...

    Correct, it did.

    What do I do now?

    Here it is. Very very purdy.

    What do I do now?

    We eventually even changed the action, and built up a second rile from scratch. But something plagued that one as well, I'm not sure what though. If you want to see it, there's a pic of it near the bottom of the last page

    What do I do now?

    Agree wholeheartedly with this. The pictures I've seen of what Mark produces is why it took me almost a year to return the rifle to him in the first place. I was sure it couldn't be the rifle (I mostly thought it was me). The sigh of relief I had when I got the email from Mark that it shot...

    What do I do now?

    Yes, new Surgeon action, Bartlein barrel, and McMillan stock. Mark wasn't sure what the problem was, and did mention that he was going to dig into it when he had time, but didn't want to waste any more of mine. We ended on what I felt were good terms. I was afraid of exactly what the other...

    What do I do now?

    Mark couldn't get it to shoot the way he wanted and simultaneously didn't want to waste any more of my time. So he called me and made things right. I'm disappointed for sure, but just in that I'm not getting the rifle now. One would expect a bad taste in the mouth from an experience like this...

    What do I do now?

    If that was a dig at Mark and/or SAC, its misplaced. I'm simultaneously excited that I'm getting a TacOps, and disappointed that I'm not getting a SAC. While it didn't work out, Mark made things right and not only can I unequivocally recommend SAC to anyone looking for a great rifle, but I...

    Long story short, Mike R is building me a Tango-51.
