    M38/M96 6.5x55 project

    That is awesome, would love to do something similar. I’ve been so busy I haven’t even loaded ammo for my comp rifle, my practice rifle or anything else lately.

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    LOL, yeah kind of. People are also feeling high fuel prices, inflation, holidays, etc. Longer it sits the lower the price will get, nice to see it going down finally. I notice all Hodgdon extruded is still $100 per 8 lb more than most other powders. Thanks @Dogtown for the links, I've...

    Too rich for my blood but nice to see the Hodgdon ones sitting for more than 5 minutes.

    Terminus Actions

    It might be a few days, I don't have a food scale or anything that goes that light at home. Terminus website lists the Apollo Lite TI at 26 oz and the Zeus QC at 37.75 oz, so almost 12 oz lighter.

    Terminus Actions

    For the record, I have my Apollo Lite in hand. He was hoping to ship in 2 weeks, it turned out to be 3 because they were at coating a bit longer than anticipated. Looking forward to a nice build off this one.

    Ultimate Hunter Rifle Competition-No bags, No Tripods!

    I had the same initial reaction. I also hunt with a bag and tripod. Shoot WyCo too, 🤘. On the Flip side, if more bubbas and fuds go shoot a match like this with gear they have it may help them get better, or at least realize their limitations.

    Ultimate Hunter Rifle Competition-No bags, No Tripods!

    Didn't see a thread on this... Looks similar to what many were hoping NRL Hunter might be. I enjoy the NRL Hunter format but this will be interesting to watch. On the face the scoring seems a bit complicated but I haven't shot rifle matches where extra time is factored into the score...

    Right on, thank you Sir! Might have to talk to Nick about that height Hawkins setup then...I like both but the Hawkins folks are phenomenal!

    Optics Zero Compromise Optic scopes in stock at cstactical.com

    @CSTactical, I have almost this exact set-up on my XLR (with the new butt-pad!). If I remember right, this is Dan's "heavy" NRL Hunter gun from the video. What height rings are those? My ARC rings just barely clear the night vision hood on my XLR, with ZC 5-27. I need a higher set so I can...

    Zero Compromise Optic 2022 and beyond Poll

    Just a quick shoutout to the guys at Zero Compromise. Sent my older 5-27 in for the NLE conversion and they did a once over on the scope, fixed an issue completely caused by the previous owner and got the scope back to me with a new elevation turret in just a couple days. I love the new...

    Thanks for the heads up, like I said above, not planning to drill.

    M38/M96 6.5x55 project

    I usually don’t like bubba stuff mixed with old rifles. This mount seems like a decent solution to run a modern scope on a cool old rifle without marring the receiver. Likely won’t be a hard use comp gun obviously but let me know what you guys think or if anyone’s used one. Not shopping for...

    M38/M96 6.5x55 project

    I’m not planning to drill and tap it. The mount I’m looking at doesn’t require permanently changing it. That said; if I found the right one drilled for a pic rail I might consider it. The bad ace mount looks fairly solid with no permanent modifications to the receiver.
