    Tikka T3 - Excessive Copper Fouling / Accuracy Issues?

    Wondering if anyone could help me in getting my Tikka T3 Lite chambered in 270 WSM to shoot 1 MOA or better. When shooting factory ammo - Winchester Ballistic Silvertip 130gr and the reloads I have worked up (data listed below) the gun shoots consistently around 1 ¾ - 2” MOA. One thing I...

    The Super SCAR trigger install is not complicated at all and Geiselle provides good instructions plus their are some really good web videos out their explaining how to do it. Just take your time and dont force anything. The only issues I have seen is that sometimes the trigger pins might be a...

    Black Hole Weaponry barrels. Any good?

    From what I've seen their QAQC can be hit and miss depending on when they were made and who made it at the time. Others have had excellent results with them. Other feedback here -...

    Carbine stock with rifle length gas sys

    As 2ac already stated: The ideal carbine buffer when using a 20" barrel and rifle-length gas system is an H2. Personally, it works but the weapon feels really weird to me anyway. The only adjustable stock that feels acceptable to me with a fence-post upper is the UBR, and even that still feels...

    M1 garand tanker, t26 - value?

    Buyer beware, Of the few T26 prototypes made that survived, most are in Museums. Second, of the ones made up out of surplus parts years ago by Tom, Dick, and Harry, many used re-welded receivers & op rods from government scrap piles. (Look for the weld/fill marks, machining and file marks...

    CMP Special Grade Garand

    I would say do it but be advised I ordered a service grade about a month before the Sandy Hook Event and I still have not recieved it just a message that CMP is processing it.

    Sniper Continuity, a Warrant Officer Sniper MOS and Lessons Learned

    sniper24INF, Appreciate the insight. As a student of history I agree that many lessons learned from the current 10+ years of combat operations will often be forgotten due to dwindling budgets, complacency, and specific political policys/agendas. I believe our greatest challenge as a...

    Typical Noveske accuracy?

    Re: Typical Noveske accuracy? Yes, they are worth it if you are looking for an extremely accurate barrel. Anyone who owns one I believe would agree. All of my noveske’s are consistently sub MOA and will shoot consistent groups out to 600 yards if I do my part and execute the fundamentals...

    Why is Arc' Teryx so damn expensive?

    Re: Why is Arc' Teryx so damn expensive? I'd throw Sitka Gear into the same group as well. They list the fabrics/materials used; Gore-tex, Windstopper, Primaloft, and Polyester just to name a few. These are not Sitka produced materials. They are materials that are produced by many different...
