    Steiner T6Xi 2.5-15x50 (5116) on Remington 700 Police

    I would rather have a mid tier scope on an entry level rifle than an entry level scope on a mid tier rifle. That rifle is closer to a mid tier rifle when you consider the state of precision rifles in the early 90's.

    Steiner T6Xi 2.5-15x50 (5116) on Remington 700 Police

    That is probably a 700 PSS, which were definitely a cut above the 700P. It's very difficult to get any solid info on them now, most say that it and the 700P are virtually the same, they are not, but I can't give you any specifics. The Remington heavy, hammer forged barrels were well noted for...

    American made medium power optic (3-18+)

    Tract or Maven 2.5 -15. Quality, Japanese sourced scopes. Delta Stryker 3.5-21, also a quality, Japanese sourced scope. ZeroTech Trace Advanced 4-24 might be worth a look, also Japanese.

    Who can make a custom bottom metal for a 4.050 mdt mag

    I know PTG has issues and has earned the reputation they have, but I have used their DBM and found it well made and it works as it should (not the one you're looking at).

    .224 Valkyrie

    Well, you don't say what length, but this is a very decent handguard. I have one and am very pleased with it. https://www.primaryarms.com/guntec-15-ultra-light-thin-m-lok-handguard-black-gt-15mlk

    I'm glad we can make fun of the fact that two children were traumatized by their parents brutal murder.

    Let’s talk carbon fiber stocks

    100% on your remarks in regards to the pure precision. I bought one for my lighter weight build. I am absolutely pleased with the quality of the stock, it looks good, but damn, muzzle flip and recoil are a definite issue. That's with a 7-08 AI shooting the 162's at 2800 with a suppressor...

    Tikka T3x ACE target vs Game

    You would want the target model for target shooting and competition. Weight is a benefit for those endeavors. It's probably still a bit on the light side, but you can make it work.

    Follow my 7 dumbo project aka 7 dasher!!

    So? What's your point? My 7-08 AI with a 22" barrel drives the 162 eld x to 2800 with room to spare as far as case capacity goes. Gets me to 1000 with only 8.3 mils. Big deal. It's not what the OP is looking for. I do agree with you in regards to case capacity, let alone the increased recoil. If...

    Are you the arbiter of what is worthwhile? Some folks with the expendable income like to play with stuff and try new things. With the Atip at 2500, he's got 9.6 mils of drop at 1000 and is still supersonic at 1500 (Per JBM).

    Rifle Scopes $2500 MSRP Limit (PRS Production Class)

    I have a couple of sightron's and am very pleased with them, though not perfect. I looked hard at the 5-30, but after reading a review by @BigJimFish, where he reported poor glass quality (I understand it was an example of one) gave me pause, then I looked at the specs, only 23.5 mils of...

    Maybe staball 6.5? Slower than the powders you're using, but it's a ball powder, so you might be able to get enough powder in there to make a difference. Staball does like heavy bullets and high pressure

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    Good for you. I did copious amounts of research before buying my first "Alpha" class scope. I have wanted a March scope for long time. As I said, the glass is quite good to my eyes, the build quality is excellent, the turrets are ok (I don't have the shuriken edition). The form factor is...

    Stinkin' Light Bulbs

    Would a voltage regulator be feasible? They aren't cheap, but I'm sure there are other benefits that might make installing one worthwhile.

    What's the best weed killer?

    1 gallon strong vinegar, 1 cup iodized salt 1 tablespoon dish soap. Get the 30% vinegar. Mix until the salt dissolved, add the soap for clinging to the plants. Put it in your sprayer. Just saw it was addressed above. It ain't cheap, but it's clean.

    DNT 7-35x56 FFP not holding zero

    All mechanical devices can fail. Have you reached out to DNT? I'd be more interested to see what they CS response was.
