    Youth PRS rifle

    Find a rem 700 action (308 bolt face), pull the barrel and install a 18" Criterion .243 Win barrel in med contour. Drop it in a Grayboe stock and done, semi-custom that will outshoot most of us. This could prolly be done for less than a grand and you'll have a better rifle than what that money...

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt and bender 4-16x42 h27?

    For what I paid for my 4-16 two years ago you can almost get a 5-25 now. They've dropped the prices on some recently so everything is changing. If I were to sell mine now I would asked around 2200 and would take no less than 2000 used. Not even sure what they want for new ones now but I'm also...

    Grayboe

    You can order straight from them or a distributer, whatever glitch happened is fixed now. Just go to their website. I see a good future as well. From my conversation with Ryan they sell as fast as they can produce, and now I can see why. Maybe they'll get to a point where they have more...

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt & Bender back in the game

    I agree, and am glad to see the changes. However, I will add that even though you are correct about their period of standstill, my S&B is still the optic to which all my other brands are measured against. The market for sure started catching up and I'm glad they recognize it.

    Rifle Scopes Premiere Reticles warranty honored by Tangent Theta

    Your right, I did leave that part out. But I left it out on purpose. Most of that came from the "vendor", a middleman whom I've never even met personally. I don't know anything about him except what I've seen on the hide. Maybe it was the truth, maybe he wasn't, I don't know. TT attempted to do...

    6.5 Creedmoor 101

    Well, I'm experimenting with the 160's, with magnum primers, but my chrono shit the bed so I'm at a standstill until I get another one. More to follow...

    AI .308 Twist Rate vs Year of the Bullet

    I was not referencing that barrels made for/or by AI were crappy, at least that's not what I meant. Just stating that one cannot look at twist rate alone.

    AI .308 Twist Rate vs Year of the Bullet

    I think one thing that some are forgetting is that twist rate isn't everything in a barrel. Without accounting for other factors, i.e number of lands, height of lands, smoothness of the bore, how the throats is cut, the crown, etc etc also plays a big role in the outcome of that bullet once it...

    Rifle Scopes Premiere Reticles warranty honored by Tangent Theta

    Again, not the fucking same. Vortex is Vortex, TT is NOT Premier. Bad anaolgy. You should have stopped at post #20. Get the $1000 from TT, Get another $1000 from your friend and go buy a badass scope.

    Rifle Scopes Premiere Reticles warranty honored by Tangent Theta

    Be pissed off that Premier went out of business, that's ok, but nothing more. I have a safe full of old Weavers and Redfields, in mint condition, and if something happens to them then it then that's it, nothing can be done, and I know that. It is what it is. Companies go out of business all the...

    Rifle Scopes Premiere Reticles warranty honored by Tangent Theta

    TT purchased the physical assets and intellectual property of Premier. They DID NOT take over the company. Some of you need to learn a little bit about business and do your research before you go ranting. HYPOTHETICAL: I purchase the machinery, tooling, and all other property from a well...

    AIAT worth it just changed burned up barrels?

    Yes, If you remage (bugnut, CBI, and others) you will also have to get a set of go/no go gauges and headspace yourself. The AIAT and/or a smith making multiple barrels will set the headspace for you.

    AIAT worth it just changed burned up barrels?

    Short answer...yes. Most all of the big names on this site, LRI, SAC, PVA, and others can make you multiple barrels for your action. Send them your action and a blank check. You will just need to get a barrel vise and an action wrench. Or you can go the remage route. The AIAT was designed for...

    Grayboe

    Man in brown brought me a surprise this morning.... Grayboe Renegade in multicam. I have to give props to Jeff and Ryan at Grayboe. Don't know if it was my computer or theirs but I couldn't order from the website. So I called and Ryan took my order over the phone, he spent a good deal of time...

    Sell everything for AIAX MC?

    I've been pondering over this thread for a while now. Even sat down with paper and pen listing out what I had and what I could reasonably get in a quick sale. Decided to go to the range yesterday and just shoot a few for fun. While looking into the safe trying to figure out what I wanted to...
