    Gunsmithing McMillan rifle stocks - company sold??

    LOL. Has anyone other than me thought of just picking up the phone and calling them? Unless the contact I talked to at McMillan is lying, which I have no reason to believe they would, the stock division is still owned and run by the McMillan's and was not sold with the rifle division. Now, this...

    Pretty sure. But I've been wrong before. It's just a phone call away.

    At best case contact him and ask for your parts back as is right now, tell him not to turn another chip on anything belonging to you. Then send your parts to someone else more reputable. Believe me Ross is not the only one that makes a spec base.

    Gunsmithing McMillan rifle stocks - company sold??

    Well McMillan has a long wait time now, hope it doesn't expand to the same lead time as a Surgeon Action. I hate seeing this happen, from what I gather they have been a family owned and run business from the very beginning. Hope the customer doesn't have to suffer the growing pains.

    Remington 700 civilian vs. military cocking piece

    They have a stock pile of new two screw cheek piece stocks, when they are gone (who knows when) they will have to go to the single screw. Just getting that info from someone you frequents the shop at Quantico.

    Rifle Scopes Parsons Scope Repair

    That doesn't sound very good. They have had my scope for over 8 months, 1 1/2 years to go :( Can anyone recommend a scope repair shop that does work on old Lyman 15x Target scopes?

    Rifle Scopes Parsons Scope Repair

    Just wondering if anyone has talked to these guys recently? I've been trying to contact them from a couple months off and on to check on a scope of mine. The answering machine says to leave a message and they will return the call in a few days, it's been months. Don't everyone go slamming anyone...

    .243 Win and 115 DTAC's Only

    We tried RL-25 at 47.5gr and got about the same velocity as you MSTN. I feel like I was throwing a lot of powder out the end of the barrel for the speed I was getting. We switched to RL-17 and are getting 3,103fps with only 42.0 grains of powder. We're using 26" Schneider barrels with 1-7.5 twist.

    WHere to buy 338 Edge brass?

    It's not anything to worry about, it really is no problems and once you size them up you remove the expander for the next sizings.

    WHere to buy 338 Edge brass?

    Call Defensive Edge and get a set of their .338 Edge dies. It's pretty much as simple as sizing any brass, you just have another step to expand the brass from .308 too .338 everything else is the same.
