    Reliable AR10 style that's reliable for "plinking"?

    I had a Ruger SFAR, had to send it back twice. Eventually it worked but at best it was a 3 MOA gun. A friend of mine has one too that he bought around the same time and it runs great and shoots 1.5-2 MOA. That seems to be a common theme with Ruger.

    AXSR Action screws

    About the overthinking. I talked to two engineers I know, one structural and the other aeronautical. They both said the same thing (as I understood). Using a ball head driver will result in a decrease in torque for a given torque input to the driver because the torque is being applied off axis...

    AXSR Action screws

    On a forum where people choose scopes based on ounces and worry about few fps muzzle velocity? A better name for this forum is OCD Central 😂.

    AXSR Action screws

    I saw that, it’s just counter intuitive, not that my intuition means anything. It just seems from a mechanical standpoint that the applied torque would be different between a bit at an angle versus straight on.

    AXSR Action screws

    Hello All, How are you torquing the #2 action screw? It looks to me that you'd have to use a ball end bit but, wouldn't that make the torque required to meet the spec higher? Saying it another way, do ball end hex bits apply the same force to the screw for a given torque setting on the wrench...

    New Long Distance Shooter

    With all the things, $15k and up. With AI (don’t know about MRAD resale), they are like Rolex, unless you beat the shit out of it then you’ll get most of your money back if you decide to sell especially if you get common calibers like 6.5CM, .308, 300 PRC.

    Switch barrel rifle bag

    This one does but it looks tight to carry the second barrel. https://www.milehighshooting.com/aim-fs-42-folding-stock-bag-tan/

    Switch barrel rifle bag

    What bag are you using for your switch barrel rig? I’m looking for a soft bag with shoulder straps that will accommodate an extra barrel and bolt. Thank you!

    Sunshade and FOV

    How close to the scope body is the field of light coming through the objective lens? I’m wondering how long a sunshade would have to be to reduce FOV.

    New Long Distance Shooter

    I’m a hobbyist and have a done 5 days of professional instruction and have been shooting 6.5CM for several years, probably 3,000 rounds so I’m definitely not an expert. I decided to upgrade to a magnum caliber (300 PRC). My new rifle is 22.4 lbs with a full magazine and all the other stuff. I...

    Ammo Black Hills 6.5 Creedmoor 143gr ELD-X

    I haven’t had any luck lately finding Hornady Match ELD with a ES less than 40fps.

    What’s a tripod? I use sticks and some rope to tie them together.

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    Tell ya what. Grab your 30lb rifle and all your pillows, then we’ll go for a 10 mile walk in the woods then shoot from an unsupported position in the dirt and see how that goes.

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    PRS is a joke. Guys running around with all kinds of shit with a 30lb rifle. Reminds me of guys riding bikes with spandex on or the effeminate hipster in skinny jeans. If you don’t know what I’m talking about then you’re the guy I’m talking about. Just sell your rifle and go golfing.

    I was just able to access my email and Area 419 had already responded to my inquiry. They are shipping a lever version with a return label. Can’t get much better service than that. Thanks Area 419!
