    Remington 5R .223 did i get screwed?

    Re: Remington 5R .223 did i get screwed? I'm back... Definitely looks like more than normal wear on the bolt. If this was supposed to be a NEW rifle I would be taking it back for another.

    Remington 5R .223 did i get screwed?

    Re: Remington 5R .223 did i get screwed? I bought mine new a few years ago. It was just laying in foam with the bolt separate IIRC. The marks on the stock might just be foam dust. Mine had foam dust all over it. Try rubbing it off. Scratches on the jeweling are to be expected... But not...

    Cleaning Rod

    Re: Cleaning Rod OK, I can see running a rod down the barrel once before you shoot it... But why would you do it again before at least 300-400 rounds. There's absolutely no reason to chance messing up your barrel. I don't know CBI but I assume it's a custom made barrel. If so, it should be...

    New version Remington M40, what's it worth?

    Re: New version Remingtom M40, what's it worth? Actually, $1600 is what I would consider just "OK". Probably 6 or 7 years ago you could find them at Gunshows all day long for $800-$900. They got crazy for a few years in between when you could expect to pay as much as $2500 for one (that's...

    THREE (3) Rem 700 5-R's

    Re: THREE (3) Rem 700 5-R's I've seen used .308 5R's with a 24" barrel go for $800-$900, but that's after looking a lot or waiting. The 300 might bring more. The 223 should be the same. A "good deal" would be $2800 for all three. IMHO...

    Suppressors Unexpected Benefit...

    Re: Unexpected Benefit... I really appreciate all the support guys! I have close friends who own Spikes Tactical. They make a .308 suppressor but it appears to be made for AR's. I'm hoping it will work on a bolt gun too. Anyone know??? I haven't asked them yet. I'll probably call them tomorrow.

    Suppressors Unexpected Benefit...

    Last year my wife and I decided to put all of our assets into a Revokeable Trust. Since I was diagnosed with Cancer in December of 2010 I wanted things to be easier for her in the event I'm not around for long. I'm such an idiot, I just found out I can buy NFA stuff through my Trust with no need...

    pawn shop .308

    Re: pawn shop .308 I found an old 40x at, of all places, Gander Mountain! It was chambered in 30-06 and was in a McMillan Smear Stock. I went back and forth about it for a few months. One day I walked in and it was marked down to $600!!! Of course I snatched it up. They told me they thought...

    Aluminum bedded block question

    Re: Aluminum bedded block question It appears that maybe the bedding block is mis-aligned inside the stock. If that's the case, bedding it will do nothing to straighten it because the action screws are also mis-aligned because they screw thru the bedding block. I would either sand out the...

    Aluminum bedded block question

    Re: Aluminum bedded block question Get this... I actually hogged out the inside of a McMillan A5 so I could epoxy in a Whidden Aluminum Bedding Block! Crazy, Huh?... Actually, I couldn't be happier with the performance and I can swap out pretty much any Remington SA barreled action and get...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Colt Government Rail or a Kimber Tactical Custom?

    Re: Colt Government Rail or a Kimber Tactical Custom? Two words... Sig Sauer. Mine is a Scorpion. I paid $799 for it. But if you don't like the color look at the Tac Pac. I've seen them go for even less on popular auction sites.

    Accuracy trouble during breakin. Advice needed.

    Re: Accuracy trouble during breakin. Advice needed. I would continue the load development and try to work up a load that works with the rifle when it's clean AND once its fouled. It's likely he just found a combination that works great thru a clean barrel. Not so much thru a fouled one...

    Rem 700 identification help?

    Re: Rem 700 identification help? I had a rifle some years ago that was similar to a PSS except for the stock. It was still made by HS Precision but had a thinner grip, narrower forearm and only one stud on the forearm. I was told it was called a Sendero.

    Do I need a gunsmith?

    Re: Do I need a gunsmith? I'd like to be wrong about this, but I believe there's more to it than than there is to putting together an AR15. At least if you want something that will shoot accurately.
