    Help being sent to Texas

    I work for Southeastern Freight Lines and will hopefully be heading to the gulf coast next week? I'm stationed out of lubbock Tx. I plan to load my truck down with water, food, and clothes. Anything I can fit to try and help out. If anyone would like to pitch in I'd happy to handle the leg work...

    EH1A or T6A?

    FWIW the EH1A will weigh exactly as much as the T6A

    Patriot Valley Arms - Best kept secret in the East?

    Josh is an A+++ guy. I recently called him with a 4th down audible and the guy caught it. I sure am glad he takes credit card!

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    My jewell was timed by Aaron. It was stiff at first but now I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between my AJ built TL2 with 2000 rounds on it if I was blindfolded.

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    I need to quit being lazy. I've had my TL3 since August with a 16" 6.5x47 barrel. Josh currently has my MTU blank for a 26" 6x47L barrel. NOTE: I just learned the hard way that bighorn changed the ejection port on the Tl3 from 2.8" to 2.9". Not a huge deal but disappointing that my ejection...

    3b in an MTU stock?

    I agree. I don't think the eh1a has enough meat for the efr. Looks like I might opt for a proof barrel

    Wax?

    I would run grease on the lugs but I run a dry chain lube on my bolt body. Last a long time and doesn't attract dust like oil and grease

    3b in an MTU stock?

    Anybody have a switch barrel rig running a hunting barrel in a match contour stock? I currently have two stocks for my TL3 and would honestly just like to run my EH1A year round. If you have a picture of a RV contour barrel in an MTU stock or similar please post a picture. Plan B is to sell my...

    Maggie’s Cigar Thread Version.... IV or so...

    Well hell. Thanks to monthly poker night with the guys from church. I've developed a new hobby that will likely become pricey. I plan to go shopping for a 50-100 cigar humidor this weekend at the local shop. Any recommendations for stocking up the new box? Mainly for special occasions and the...

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    In all honesty both actions are very similar in design and feel. The TL3 tips the scale with more bang for your buck. CRF and Mechanical Ejection are amazing. I run AW mags and can't express how smooth they operate. I'll always have a special place in my heart for a surgeon scalpel but the TL3...

    Defiance to Bighorn questions

    My last action was a deviant and I currently own a TL3. So here's my opinion. Question 1. Both actions have a completely different feel when cycling the bolt. Understandable considering that one action has a bead blast finish with NP3 bolt while the other has a polished finish on both the bolt...
