    XLR Chassis Stock

    I got my XLR Carbon Chassis painted and installed on my R700 SPS .308 and I love it! Fits like a glove, the machine work is incredible, and I see no problems with it. I did need to switch out to high TPS rings and using a 20 MOA base, there's less than 1/8" of space between the scope bell and...

    precision rifles... show em

    I finally ended up finishing the paint job on the new XLR chassis on my Remington 700. I used Rustoleums Camo line with Black, brown, green and khaki, using Pine needles for stencils. Then clearcoated it with 3 coats of Matte clear. It turned out great! I love the contrast of it, and the...

    Rifle Scopes Okay! Bushnell, Vortex PST or Sightron SIII

    I have no other opinions other than the Vortex, which I'm perfectly happy with... But the main reason I went with Vortex is their lifetime, transferrable, no questions, no receipt needed warranty. I figure if they'll do that, they trust the scope to handle some abuse and are comfy with their...

    XLR Chassis Stock

    Got my XLR Carbon Chassis on Friday! Looks great, big thanks to Kyle! Great packaging, fits perfect, and great communication. If you're thinking about getting one of his chassis systems, feel confident working with XLR. I was a little worried about the barrel not being centered in the hand...

    Chassis painting questions

    Gman, did you peel off the foam on the cheek riser then put it back on, or just tape around it?

    Chassis painting questions

    Thanks for the tips kirk, those camo jobs look awesome! If I do a camp job, it'll be using pine needles as stencils. But I may just go all one color like a Khaki color. Should I scuff the chassis before I prime though? And what about cleaning solvents, will they eat through the paint right away?

    Chassis painting questions

    I'm thinking about doing a paint job on my bolt action. Not so much for hunting but just because I have too many all black rifles. I'd like to either just go with an FDE color or possibly some sort of camo pattern. I just want to do the chassis though, not the barrel, action, bolt, bipod...

    Dillon users: Which dies do you use?

    I use Lee dies on my Dillon 650 for 9mm and .223. No problems. I have RCBS for my .308 but its just because I got a good deal on them.

    DIY Shooting Mat and Rear Bags:

    The machine I used was just a standard machine with no frills or anything, I just used a more heavy duty needle and upholstery thread. Both available at WalMart. My machine was about 30 years old though.

    DIY Shooting Mat and Rear Bags:

    Well I read this thread a while ago and kept it in the back of my mind. My mother in law had a sewing machine that she never used so I thought I'd ask her if I could borrow it. She just told me to keep it as she never learned how to use it and had no desire to learn how. I then asked a...

    Annealing questions

    So it doesn't hurt to anneal after every firing then correct? I would think it would only make the brass last longer right...? A CNC plasma cutting table is a big table, controlled by a computer, that cuts metal using a plasma cutter. Kind of like a water jet or laser cutter, but not quite as...

    Annealing questions

    I'm still fairly new to the world of precision shooting but am learning... I've been reloading for a few years, mostly handgun and .223 but have also loaded a few hundred .308. I knew about annealing but didn't really know if I needed to do it. With my background in metalworking, I...
