    Big bore short action?

    Big bore short action?

    For some inexplicable reason I want to build a super compact bolt gun for hunting. 16" barrel, a folding stock chassis and detachable magazines would be preferable as well. When I think about building a .308 with a 16" barrel, it just doesn't make any sense from a ballistic standpoint. I would...

    Rifle Scopes How much of an advantage is night vision?

    Re: How much of an advantage is night vision? I got a PVS-14 earlier this year, unfortunately I still haven't shot with it for lack of a night time range. However I have spent a good amount of time playing around with it... I think I might know what your buddy is going on about with NV...

    Suppressors Pistol under $600, please advise.

    Re: Pistol under $600, please advise. +1 for a FNP. I had a FNP-45, and it was a great gun, I got it brand new off GunBroker for $425 with the case and three mags. I had to sell it recently to finance another project, but I'll be buying another one someday (probably the tactical because I'm...

    XLR Evolution Review

    Re: XLR Evolution Review I am about to start my first bolt gun build and the XLR is looking pretty good. I was wanting an AICS or an A5, but this seems like real contender, and aesthetically it's a lot like the more contemporary chassis coming out, e.g., the Remington MSR, and the AW AX...

    Rifle Scopes IOR or Leupold, advice needed, first-timer...

    Re: IOR or Leupold, advice needed, first-timer... So far there have been some good strong opinions, I like that. The only thing that has remained unanswered is the question about parallax adjustment on the IOR? Does anyone have anything to say about the lack of parallax adjustment with the IOR?

    Re: IOR or Leupold, advice needed, first-timer... Still no one backing the Leupold, it's looking like the IOR is the way to go. Still no answer or opinion on the adjustable parallax, anyone want to field this?
