    SOLD Manners Stock For Sale EH6-A Mini Chassis Bighorn SA

    I have a 6.5 CM in an elite MCS-T. Like the stock but it has the chassis with the protrusion on the mag well. Not necessarily a big deal but have wanted more of a flush fit using the curtis mags for hunting.

    SOLD Manners Stock For Sale EH6-A Mini Chassis Bighorn SA

    Tag What's the hole spacing for the sling studs up front? And I'm guessing the mini chassis is not bdl but for AI mags.

    Rifle Scopes What scopes are you hoping for at Shot Show 2018?

    A hybrid of Nightforce's NXS 2.5-10 compact and atacr 4-16. Basically take the atacr, give it a 30mm tube, and non-rotating ocular. All my hunting rifles would love it.

    Buying a used barrel??

    My most accurate rifle is one I found a used barrel for. Had a Borden action, found a used barrel for sale basically to my specs. Happened to be smithed by Jim. Sent barrel and action to him to be screwed together. Maybe I was extremely lucky but it can be done. I'm into that barrel $200...

    Rifle Scopes March 2.5-25x52 "Eyebox" Issues - resolved with larger objective?

    I can't comment on the 52mm objective. I'd like to look through one myself to see how it compares to my March 42mm objective. Before mounting my march I was worried about the eye box as the scope it was replacing was much easier to get behind while in hand. However, once I got the March...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold VX-6HD

    I have not seen the VX-6HD model but I had the VX-6. I liked the scope a lot. I felt optically it was excellent, real easy to get behind and the 3-18 range was great for hunting. I switched my scopes to FFP being the only reason I don't still have it, but I have contemplated getting another...

    Rifle Scopes Need Scope Help for GA Precision Rifle - March vs. Swarovski vs. Leupold

    I'll chime in as I've owned some of the scopes in question (March 3-24x42, Leupold vx6 3-18x44, and NF ATACR 4-16x42). Obviously 2 of those were FFP. The Leupold was the first of the 3 I owned. It was a real nice scope and I felt like the optics were dang good. Spun turrets and my wife and I...

    Progressing with a build

    Thanks for the pics. Maybe I need to actually bolt it in rather than set in and see if it makes a difference.

    Progressing with a build

    Couple quick questions here. Waiting for the completion of a rifle build. I'm using a bighorn tl3 and manners chassis stock. Even though I had a tl3 in hand I found a DLC'd tl3 and decided to go that route. Only down side is the tl3 I had in hand was a remington tang where the DLC is a medium...

    Barrel vise set up

    Appreciate the info. I'll have to digest it more when I get home from work. Just a quick search for the viper vise and haven't found one in stock. Any leads?

    Barrel vise set up

    I've been collecting parts for a couple of years for a 6.5 CM. I'm just about to send my barrel off to Josh at PVA. This rifle I've always planned on having as a switch barrel set up (bighorn tl3), so to do that I need to purchase a few tools. One being a barrel vise. I'm wondering if there is...

    Rifle Scopes Current Vortex AMG wait time?

    If it were me, and it's exactly what I did, I would keep my eyes peeled for a used one or a dealer with one in stock. I was able to grab one from camera land, for a great price btw, back in December. I wasn't necessarily committed to finding one, but did want one and knowing the lack...

    Hunting & Fishing Elk Tag! Need 300wsm ammo recommendations

    I agree on the 180 gr accubonds. I've had great success with their factory loads on elk out of my 300 wsm. No animal my wife or I has harvested with them has gone more than 20 yards (shots: 15, 217, and 475 yards). Congrats on the tag!

    Lone Peak Titanium Actions?

    I'm really interested in their new alpine port fuzion TI action. I live about an hour from where they are made. Hoping to maybe stop by their shop sometime.

    Should I get an adjustable stock?

    You guys have talked me into it. here's an unrelated question. This stock has the second gen dbm chassis. I'm going to use this rifle hunting a bit and thought I'd try the curtis customs mags that are somewhat flush. without knowing where this rifle will balance That front lip on the bottom...

    Should I get an adjustable stock?

    I've been piecing together a build for a 6.5 CM. I have everything but the barrel. The barrel will be a proof carbon sendaro lite contour using a Bighorn TL3 and Manners MCS-T elite fill. I'm either going to scope it with my NF ATACR 4-16 or Vortex AMG. I won't be using anything bigger than a...

    Rifle Scopes S&B 3-20x50 Ultra Short or March 3-24x52?

    Is the S&B a 34mm tube or 30mm? That's significant IMO if you're considering it for hunting. I bought the NF ATACR F1 4-16x42 thinking I found my huckleberry. It was my first 34mm tubed scope. Just didn't what I would call "fit" my hunting rifle. I have a March 3-24x42. The footprint is ideal...

    Rifle Scopes Who's using a Vortex AMG?

    I have one in MOA. Did the same thing as nuke first time out. Tried spinning the turret and wondered what the heck was wrong. Then I remembered the locking turrets. I'm always searching for what I think will fit me hunting wise and still able to use as a crossover for tacticall purposes. The...
