    Rebarreling an AW50

    I am not pleased with the factory barrel on my AW50. Rather, I suppose I should say I am not pleased with the accuracy I am getting. It walks all over the target, stringing progressively further to the right as the barrel warms up. I guess it's just too dainty. I figure as long as I'm...

    Atlas with AI spigot

    Re: Atlas with AI spigot Hi BLI -- I actually obtained one of those myself and tried it out with my AI AW50. It held up just fine. However when all is said and done I plan on upgrading to Kasey's mount for a few reasons, which I believe I mentioned.

    Atlas with AI spigot

    Re: Atlas with AI spigot I have just BARELY 0.125" clearance with the English tension knob, with my Remington 40-X heavy barrel in AICS chassis. As you said, the Atlas knob is just a bit smaller in diameter than that, so I'd have MORE clearance. I'd say go for it! EDIT: Wow fred ... that's...

    Atlas with AI spigot

    Re: Atlas with AI spigot The English tension knobs (in my post at the top of this page) are 1 7/16" in diameter, if it makes a difference to you. I <span style="font-style: italic">can</span> tell you that .175" isn't going to make a difference for my Remington 700 in an AICS, Remington 40X...

    Rifle Scopes Best Scope For An African Safari

    Re: Best Scope For An African Safari What?! You can't take a push-feed on Safari! Sacrilege! You need a good Mauser or better yet a few nice double rifles for the boys to carry. (Sorry, I finished reading <span style="text-decoration: underline">Something of Value</span> not too long ago)...

    Central Texas Gunsmiths?

    Re: Central Texas Gunsmiths? I'm trying out Hank Fleming for a Destroyer Carbine cut/thread and conversion to 9mm Parabellum. It should be done next month, I'll let you know how it turns out. I'd love to know if there are any decent gunsmiths in central or Northwest Austin, or Cedar Park.

    weirdest thing you traded a gun for

    Re: weirdest thing you traded a gun for I once traded an Interarms Mk X 30-06 with a Swift scope for sand-blasting and automotive paint refinishing for a bunch of antique cast-iron radiators.

    M1a build/customize.

    Re: M1a build/customize. If you can afford it, just buy exactly what you want from LRB, starting with the M25 receiver as akjaeger points out. Lou will put together a wonderful rifle, and he'll stand behind it too. I have no love for SEI. Problems happen; try and find an instance where...

    JAE-700 Query

    Re: JAE-700 Scam? They really do make the JAE-100 M1A stock, which is really very nice, and certainly quite real. I've had a few conversations with Lisa on the phone to iron out issues with the JAE-100 and Gen2 JAE-100 stocks, and she was friendly and helpful. I doubt it's a scam, although...

    Rifle Scopes Internal Bubble Anti Cant on Scopes?

    Re: Internal Bubble Anti Cant on Scopes? This is an interesting development from USO. I've been using Deros Level Grouses attached to my scope tubes. I find they're much more sensitive than bubble levels, but whatever you do don't order from the manufacturer (get 'em from Cheese) and don't...

    Rifle Scopes ELCAN vs. NF 1-4 compar.

    Re: ELCAN vs. NF 1-4 compar. I love the Elcan. It's my standard tactical carbine scope; the USO SN3-2200 is my standard rifle scope. When you do a cost comparison, remember that there's no need to buy rings or BUIS with the Specter DR, as it has a built-in mount and back-up sights (although...
