    Does anyone have a blueprint showing the location of the side mount iron sight holes for the Rem 700?

    Well I think he established that the next time he asks for help, he will be told to fuck off and look forward to the journey.

    6mm ARC Long Range Build

    I haven't shot any lighter stuff in my 6 ARC. I have only run the 108 ELDm and have components to load when I finish all of the factory ammo I have on hand. The barrel length isn't going to affect your downrange accuracy. Sure it can give you some more velocity and help keep your speed up at...

    6mm ARC Long Range Build

    I have never run 4R but have a couple 5R barrels. They shoot fine for me. I'm sure you could make hits at one mile, but there are far better caliber options over a tiny 6mm case. Remember it was designed as a lighter package to mimic or slightly better the 308 in a gas gun. You are pressure...

    6mm ARC Long Range Build

    Rifle + 1 gas length for 18-22" barrel. You can probably go rifle + 2 for the 24". I'm sure others will chime in. With the 24" you will gain some velocity for sure, but the round is capable of 1000 yard performance in shorter barrels. I went with a 20" Proof and with factory Hornady 108 ELDm...

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    I live in a non suppressor friendly state. If I could have them I would have several. And yes my X300's get punished on the pistols except for my Glock 34 and dual port comped P320. A little clear chap stick on the lens before a long shooting day helps make it easier to clean. Also clay bars...

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    I pretty much run all my lights in that position. Zero issues to date on all the different versions I have used. Fury, various scout models, etc. This is the new Turbo model so I'll see what happens. I did the Aimpoint micro cover mod to the scout lights just to help keep them cleaner on the...

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    It's not as soft as my older BCM builds, but not over gassed at all. I'm going to play with springs and buffers a little more to see what it does. I ran it with a carbine spring and an H1 and H2, then switched to a blue spring and same buffers. Not really much difference. It could be the lack of...

    The AR15 Picture Thread

    New upper using the BCM Mk2 with their 13" handguard and gas block. Geiselle BCG, Criterion 14.5 Core, Precision Armament comp, SAI 1-6 in a Reptilia mount with a PA dot (for now) at 12:00. Nothing fancy but very accurate for what it is. I'm happy with it so far.

    Attn: Generator Experts- question about making a Gasoline genny run on Propane

    Back in the day when I was still a Toyota mechanic the Auto Trader fleet was a bunch of Toyota trucks converted to propane. They had some module in front of the throttle body and ran it that way. Still had a regular gas tank and fuel injectors. They just ran propane instead. Made for an easy...

    Mercury Marine layoffs

    From the fishing side of business where I work, I can tell you all that the people that decided to get into fishing and the outdoors during Covid did not stick with it. License sales returned to pre Covid levels. Tackle sales are still slightly up oddly, but the boom of all the people that...

    Maggie’s How can something only cause cancer in California?

    The company I work for has to deal with the Prop 65 BS all the time. They recently made some changes to what the label has to say, the size of the font, etc. We had to change a shit ton of product labels on several SKU's. Then there is the new packaging requirements that have either gone into...

    SIG RF Warranty

    I had a Kilo 2000 or maybe it was a 2200 die a hair before the 5 year mark. The display started to vanish, then it would come back dim, then be fine, then it would error no matter what I tried to range. Changed batteries, same issues. It was never dropped or rained on. Sent them an email and...

    Geissele GFR Maritime Reconnaissance 6mm arc write up and review

    Accuracy has been around half MOA or just barely larger for me. SD has been in the 13-15 range. I haven't played with the 106 Atips yet. Eventually I will get some to try when I actually get to loading for this. What velocity are you getting with the 106 TAP?

    Geissele GFR Maritime Reconnaissance 6mm arc write up and review

    My 20" Proof with the new lots of Hornady 108 ammo is doing around 2660-2670. My buddy has the same barrel and we are getting identical velocities. Both barrels still have low round counts and are not broken in completely. Unsure if they will speed up a little or not. I just haven't had time to...

    Cure For Bullying - Share Your Stories

    During high school I had a rich kid that used to talk a lot of shit about me and to me. I was fat but more like dad bod fat. To him and his friends they made me sound like I was 400 pounds. I wrestled at 189 pound class and was 6'3" tall. So not exactly morbidly obese. I was the poor kid at this...

    PortaJohn

    Plus the air smells funny there. The first time I was there for work I stepped off the plane and asked "What the fuck is that smell?" Another passenger told me it was the smell of dead bodies due to all the street violence. It gave me high expectations when I knew it would be midnight before I...

    Batteries and storage - Looking for ideas

    I just keep a mini tackle tray in my range bag. They are small enough to not take up much space, and big enough to fit any batteries my optics or shooting related electrical devices need. You can mix and match the dividers to get the right sizes you need. Something like this...

    My solution to stiffen up Atlas bipod cant

    It's a tightly woven fiber type washer usually. The tighter the weave the less grease can get into the material. That's where you need to blot the washer. Grease will not hurt it or cause the washer not to hold. We use grease on our washers to help make the drag smoother which usually means a...

    My solution to stiffen up Atlas bipod cant

    You can just wipe or blot the grease off the carbon washers with a blue shop towel. We use them in several of the reels we manufacture. There are several different grades and types of carbon washers.
