    Barrett m107a1 vs m82a3

    The cerakote may slightly increase accuracy for a very limited number of rounds, but the 2 inches of finish on the barrel where it recoils into the receiver is the first to wear away. I would bet it will be warn back down to factory diameter within 100 rounds. Just my opinion but this seems like...

    Barrett m107a1 vs m82a3

    I can't imagine a 107a1 being only 9,500. Dealer price on them is in the 10,300 range.

    Barrett m107a1 vs m82a3

    Hi, I have had 3 M82s over the years and now have an M107a1. I think the new 107a1, over all, is very similar to the latest version of the M82. There are some updates like lighter materials, a cheek rest, and chromed lined barrel vs just the chamber. I can say for sure that my accuracy testing...

    408 Cheytac Components?

    I went to my local club range today and shot the factory 408 cheytac ammo i bought a few weeks ago. The accuracy of this factory ammo I am not particularly happy with. I shot 4 groupswith 5 shots each. The worst 5 shot group was 1.8 moa and the best was .96 with an average of 1.35. My reloads...

    Quick question for .260 shooters...1000+ yds

    I have a 26 inch 8.5 bartlein 5r and am shooting 140 berger vld bullets at 2840 fps. It can make good, consistent hits to 1400 yards but after that it seems to get erratic.

    408 Cheytac Components?

    Thanks for the update Noel, It sounds very interesting, idk about modifying my bolt and chamber though. VaRandy, What 2 mile course in Va are you talking about? Is it open to anyone?

    408 Cheytac Components?

    Terrific. So if the old cheytac was less than great to do business with, it is a fair assumption that the new captech won't be much better. This is like a freaking riddle! I wish it was easier to find some good 408 brass! I'm about done with my Bertram!

    Windrunner 408XM Brass Choice - Bartram, Jamison, HSM and Chey Tac?

    Never mind, I some how was looking on custombrassandbullets.com when I thought I was on Captech's website. So hopefully Captech will get some more Jamison 2 star 408 brass in stock.

    Windrunner 408XM Brass Choice - Bartram, Jamison, HSM and Chey Tac?

    Captech's website, the new Jamison, is listing Bertram brass as their 408 CT brass so it looks like Bertram is the only game in town these days. I have lots of neck thickness variance with my Bertram leading to inconsistent accuracy. Too bad because I was about to order some new Jamison 2 star...

    Night Vision Accuracy International AW NV mount

    Hey guys, I have several rifles including an AIAW and am looking to get a NV clip on for in the near future. Who make a really good mount that can be installed on my AW chassis without machining? I have seen pictures of the badger, but don't know if it is the best or the only one.

    Accuracy International Vs Custom for 6.5 Creedmoor

    After owning, shooting for fun, and competing with both customs and a an AIAW in my experience there is no caparison. I will admit that all the customs I have owned and shot were worked over Rem 700 actions and not high end actions like Surgeon or Templer ect... Another point I would make is...

    After almost a year... (EDM / RND / NF / PVS-22)

    I have a the EDM XM408 with RND bipod assembly. So far I have not seen sub MOA accuracy with the RND bipod, but I feel like the inconsistent neck tension in my Bertram brass could very well be the issue. With as much as I have invested I need to keep working at it and get this thing sorted out...
