    Which action has highest barrel availability?

    they are popular because they they just work perfectly. Right now I have 6 impacts and one Zues. I really love the 90 deg bolt version, it is so smooth. I know we each have different likes which is why there are so many options. We can all get what we like. Enjoy

    SVD rifle

    Never heard of someone doing this, find a better range or get a better story. No range I have ever been to cares what the scope type is. The only requirement is to be able to hit the target! Something smells weird here.

    SVD rifle

    What’s wrong with the rifle, does it go bang and hit the target? This does not make sense. It could be how you want to shoot. Please explain the issues. Decent looking rifle, not my cup of tea, but not that out there.

    Scope for a subsonic 300 BLK

    1-10/2-10 are a great range. I have 2 16” 300blk ARs, one wears a ZCO 2-10 htr and the other a Razor gen 3 1-10MRAD. They are fast and quick to get on target and they are as good as my eyes out to 200yrds.

    Shank length necessary to set back the chamber/throat of 6mm Creedmoor after burning out the barrel?

    Going to be the nay sayer here. You are spending 400 and up to maybe save 400. You really don’t know how much life is left in the barrel. Wear is most notable in the throat, but it extends through out the barrel. To me I would not gamble the cost to cut and rechamber a worn out barrel. It...

    What is the quietest suppressor for 6.5 Creedmore

    Would be interesting if they actually have a patent to know what exactly the principle says. The purpose of a C&D is not normally to shut them down but to sell licenses and to maintain their ownership of the patent. My concern would be how broad they cast their net in the patent and what it’s...

    Cleaning Carbon ring / barrel with Thorolean - Some Questions

    For my rim fires I have no idea I just do chamber cleaning every third trip or 500 rounds which every comes first. For my center fires I do it every 500 rounds unless I get pressure signs.

    Cleaning Carbon ring / barrel with Thorolean - Some Questions

    For my rimfires and centerfires that need it I soak an oversized bore mop in c4 and push it into the chamber as far as I can and let it sit for 15-30 min then brush with a nylon brush and if that fails I repeat the process with a brass brush (seldom needed).
