    Removing Harris bipod rubber feet?

    So I got some aftermarket bipod spikes from JEC Customs. Really like them, but for the life of me I cannot get the original feet removed from the bipod. I have beat on the roll pins but cannot get them to budge. I've been using a relatively small ball-peen hammer, the same one I use to remove...

    Rifle Scopes S&B H2CMR vs. MSR question?

    So I've got a 5-25x56 PM II on order that is due for delivery sometime around the end of September/early October. I ordered with the MSR as that's what I'm currently running in my Kahles. However, the majority of the guys that run S&B's at the club where I shoot now are running the H2CMR because...

    Range Report 6mm 115 DTAC G7 BC?

    Anyone have a confirmed number for the G7 BC of the newer 115 DTAC's that are pointed? The G1 from Tubb's website is .588 and DOPE using this out to 1k has been bang on. But shooting past 1k it begins to not track as well. Is there a way to calculate a G7 from a G1 just using arithmetic? -VB

    Kestrel 4500nv Applied Ballistics?

    I've got a line on a good deal for a Kestrel 4500nv, but it has no ballistic software package installed. Can I add the software myself either the Applied Ballistics or the A-Trag? Thanks. -VB

    Rifle Scopes Premier 5-25 or Kahles 6-24 MSR question?

    Can anyone comment on the usability of the Gen 2 Kahles 6-24 with the newer MSR reticle in it in the lower power ranges? Say 8x-12x? I love everything about the Premier, I even like the Gen II XR, my only complaint is I really feel the usefulness of the reticle ends at about 12x. I've heard...

    Well it's official. You can very easily use 6mm Creedmoor brass in your 6XC with very little fuss in forming/converting one to the other. In fact, fire forming is not even necessary. This will be a huge boon to us 6XC fans! As the Norma Brass is $0.75/case now and the Hornady 6 Creedmoor can be...

    Gunsmithing Barrel Setback Question?

    Here's the question. My 6XC was chambered on a buddies lathe. He does a bunch of local bolt guns for hunters, quality is so-so. The reason I went with him is one, because he basically traded me out and it was on the cheap, and two I got to watch from start to finish. He indicated the barrel in...

    After having chucked up the barrel in the lathe, is there any other way to insure the barrel is rotating true to it's centerline other than by using range rod's and dial indicators to slowly and tediously get it running to within a few .0005". Is this how all the big time chamber cutters do it...
