    Remington 700 SA Bolt, Old Style vs New

    No. Model 7’s are shorter. The 600/660’s are also shorter, as are the XP/XR actions and bolts - if memory serves, the 600’s and XP/XR’s did use the same bolt, however. Action bore diameters and raceways are the same, but obviously the body lengths aren’t, meaning they aren’t interchangeable. So...

    Seekins Havak HIT 6.5cm (accuracy and barrel coming loose under hand strength)

    Personally, I’m not a huge fan of the barrel clamp. But at its core, the Hit is a stainless action with a shouldered barrel, so you can torque the barrel up to 75-100ft.lbs. like any other rifle and have confidence that your barrel is secure. That’s how the standard Havak’s and Havak Elements...

    Should I swap this scope mount out?

    What does Warne say about the recoil tolerance of that mount? If they say it’s good for the recoil, then it’s as good as Warne is, and Warne is pretty good. It might be better to have a mount point on the rail directly below that forward ring position, if your rail is long enough for that, but...

    Impact 737, Proof pre-fit, MDT ACC Elite vs AI AT-X for PRS

    One is leading the competition you’re pursuing, one isn’t present almost at all. That’s enough info.

    Aero Precision Solus Bravo

    I had a chance to handle one a new shooter student brought to a train up class, and it really wasn’t my cup of tea. For $1300, it’s a good rifle, but it was underweight and balanced far rearward.

    "Best" stock for precision 223 ar15?

    XLR & Luth-AR ahead of Magpul PRS for me. It takes too much forward weight to make up for the PRS for my favor.

    Seekins Havak Action Question

    The Hit is a different action from the standard Havak, although sharing the same bolt and breach block (think kinda like Ruger American vs. RPR - same deal). All of the Seekins bolt rifles use the same barrel tenon and headspace dimensions, because they all use the same bolt and the same breach...

    Super trickler, Auto trickler or charge master

    Just passing on the observation. You can see the posters and the date stamp there, I trust you can find the thread, it’s only a few days old. The OP there mentions they tried Elfer’s settings and still isn’t getting good throws. Elfer, Peter, and Rex have all commented to the variability in the...

    Super trickler, Auto trickler or charge master

    Join the Super Trickler group on Facebook, seems to be powder dependent, at least in cursory review, but guys are having some really long charges, and a few guys reported the machine will “look for the last kernel” for a really long time.

    Super trickler, Auto trickler or charge master

    Sounds like ST is having some issues out of the gate, guys are reporting 2-3min per charge. Will it get there? Sure. But AT has the luxury of proven tenure.

    PRS Talk PRS loadouts? What you got

    On my way to and from matches, my Gamechanger fits inside my little pack (pictured above). On top of my ammo box in the main compartment. During matches, my bag lives on my rock hammock on my tripod, 1) to anchor the tripod, 2) to remain accessible between stages, 3) to distribute weight between...

    PRS Talk PRS loadouts? What you got

    I did a pack dump before a regional match a couple weeks ago, coincidental timing. I don’t like carrying too much shit, and even this is still more than I really need.
