    Gun Cases

    Re: Gun Cases Im thinking i want to hold off on another hard case for the moment even though those look more streamlined than the one i have. Ive looked into the eagle before and think it may be a good option and take place of my cheap HF moving blanket. I still wonder how much protection it...

    Gun Cases

    What Are you using for a gun case for your precision rifles? I have somewhat swayed to soft discreet type bags for my other rifles and have thought about one for my bolt gun. I currently use one of the Starlight hard cases that Sams sold back in the day for cheap. The starlight case is big and...

    Casing shape

    Re: Casing shape Thats kind of what i thought too on the 7.62x39 chambering. I thought it would make a fun, low recoiling but accurate rifle. By chambering a .308 barrel for 7.62x39 i could load with .308 projectiles so i would have a load of options over a barrel made for the larger...

    Casing shape

    Re: Casing shape I dont have a platform nailed down yet whether it be AR, AK or bolt gun. The AK idea would not really be an AK though because i wanted to test a different gas system. The bolt gun would be the most probable if i didnt do the AK. If i was going to go the AR route the 300 BLK...

    Brainstorming a new project...

    Re: Brainstorming a new project... I have one of the MUR uppers and it is nicer feeling than the normal upper. Mine had a tight hole for the barrel ext. but i decided to keep it since i was going for a precision build. I heated the upper and cooled the barrel and it just dropped in. I felt...

    Casing shape

    I was wondering something when i read about the 300 BLK and wanted some help understanding it if any of you know. I load for .308 and .223 so being able to use the .308 projectile in a .223 case would be an easy transition supply wise. My question comes from why they didnt use the 7.62x39...

    Shoulder Position?

    Re: Shoulder Position? I have a Zeiss Diavari 6-24x56 scope and tried to mount it as low as i could. The rings are Leupold PRW's but i dont recall the height. If i had to guess they would be the 30mm mediums. Ill have to get the height above bore once i get back home. As for the cheek...

    Shoulder Position?

    I am having some issues getting a consistant cheek weld on my rifle in prone and from the bench. My rifle is a Rem 700 5R Special with the HS Precision stock. As for my specs just think 6' tall and lanky. I think my main issue is i cant find the right spot to put the butt of the rifle. I can...

    Gunsmithing Mercury Recoil Reducers

    Re: Mercury Recoil Reducers Sorry about that.... I guess that would help the cause wouldnt it. The rifle in question is a rem 700 in .308. The stock is the plain old HS precision synthetic that came with it. I have the buttplate off to replace it with a grind to fit limbsaver so i thought...

    Gunsmithing Mercury Recoil Reducers

    I found one other thread on this and the OP didnt get much feedback on the mercury reducers. I have some steel shot i could add but i thought the mercury deal could be more beneficial. I really hate to add weight to the stock but i would like to reduce the recoil without threading the barrel...

    .22 data book

    Re: .22 data book I also thought about adding rim thickness and overall weight to the list. Do any of you have any templates yall have used and care to share? I planned to just type one up in excel and put the various targets i use on different versions of it.

    Newbie - Trick out my SKS or buy a starter rifle?

    Re: Newbie - Trick out my SKS or buy a starter rifle? Just to push you a little further over the edge... I also have an sks and put on a couple parts to try to increase the accuracy and its just not worth it. Its a fun rifle to shoot and will out shoot my ak but not precision by any means...

    How many people have built a composite stock?

    Re: How many people have built a composite stock? Would you be willing to give some tips or a short walkthrough on how you made the stocks and mold. Even the materials and how you made the inlet would be helpful.

    How many people have built a composite stock?

    Re: How many people have built a composite stock? I started one for a 10/22 but never finished it. I used a AI stock set (just the plastic) to make a mold from plaster. Then i hand laid fiberglass in that. I dont know why but i didnt use foam to fill the voids. Its solid fiberglass and...

    Re: Iron Sight Trainer Ahh you got a great deal compared to what i was able to find. I wish i was closer. There are no gun or ammo deals around here i have been able to find. I ordered the one from Dicks about 1.5 weeks ago and it still hasnt come in but atleast they told me it may take some...

    Re: Iron Sight Trainer What kind of accracy do you get from the 513T? Ive seen various actions that yall have listed above and they were more than i can spend. I broke down and called all the local gun shops about the Savage Mark II FVT and none of them had it in stock. Dicks Sporting...
