Looking at picking up a 223 walk about / coyote rifle / truck gun. Looking hard at the Howa Mini action. Would cut the barrel back to 18”. Seems like a really good rifle as I’m a big fan of 2 stage triggers and 3 position safety’s for a rifle with this purpose. One issue that keeps coming...

Hi, I purchased this mount 5-7 years ago. Might have been used. I can't remember what make it is, I always buy quality mounts so I'm sure its something decent. No markings on it, its 30mm. Thanks!

Picked up a Midas Tac 5-25x56 with 34mm tube for me Vudoo v22 with 40moa rail. Going in a MDT ACC chassis. Can anyone tell me what ring high I should be looking for? Thanks!

If you were buying a 6.5CM barrel for a AR10, primary use hunting, which options would you consider? Be specific please(length, contour). Cold bore accuracy and weight are my primary concerns. Thanks in advance.

Looking for something to top a AR10. My last one I had a S&B ultrashort 3-20. Don't have the budget for that this time and don't really want something that heavy. For some background this is a 18" 308, it will pretty much live in my truck, will be my primary hunting rifle. Things I want are...

Yes another 243 and 260 thread, just what we all needed right but please hear me out before you post "really! another 243 vs 260 thread. I have been searching this subject for quite a while as there is lots of info out there about this subject but my findings while running the numbers don't seen...

Anyone else have this happen? Trying to transfer Gun Profile from the Kestrel to my computer and vise versa, I connect the kestrel through bluetooth and hit connect on the AB profile loaded application. It then says it's connected. Then when I try to transfer profiles it says "Cannot...

If you had the action and barrel already, and your gunsmith has a 6.5CM reamer but you would have to order the SLR reamer? I haven't bought a loaded round of centrefire ammo in year but my local store has 6.5CM 140AMX for $23 a box! Thats less than I could load them for if I have to buy the...

I've been having some inconstant results with my 338LM build. It's a Rem 700 thats been trued up and has a Broughton 1in9.3" twist barrel. Its the rifle in the back of this pic. I was able to get some direction from the great people of snipershide that there may not be very much support...

I've been searching and reading about 6.5 calibers for the last couple weeks. I have a Surgeon 591 and ordered a 6.5 1in8" barrel. I realize that there's not much difference in the ballistics but there's some pro's and con's to each. One thing I'm worried about is seating depth of the 260 in...

I recently had two barrelled action's spun up on rem 700 receivers, they were trued up and had broughton barrels installed. I then dropped them in AX chassis. One was chambered in 308 and after doing load development I'm very happy with how it's shooting. When I put the barrelled action in the...

I had a lot of great insight from the "hide" from my last thread when I was trying to decide between the ATACR and 5-25PMII for my 338, I'm in the same boat again, stuck trying to decide between two scopes. This time I'm looking for a scope for my newly acquired 260. It's a Surgeon 591 with a...

Just wondering what people are using for filling in / building up stocks? For stuff like smoothing the rear tang, match the ejection port lines, etc. I have been using devcon and JB weld which has been working fine but I'm thinking there must be a better way given the long cure times. Thanks...

I have a 308 that has a 1in10" Broughton, it's throated for 175gr SMK's at mag length. I threw together some 185gr Berger BT's over 42.0gr of Varget, seated 10 thou off the lands. They shot great, i'm going to load some up at mag length to try them. Just wondering if others have had any luck...

OK so I know alot of people hate these "vs" questions but I'm having a hard time deciding. I'm having a 338LM built and it will be done in a few weeks. Its will be used for shooting steel and paper at know distances. The place I shoot at the most goes out to 1200yds but I have access to much...

Anyone figured out how to use a google search with the site? When I search with google the links just go to the homepage. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I'm having my 308 re-barreled and I'm just thinking about throat length. My factory Rem700 barrel had the typical long throat so I mainly shot 175smk's due to there tolerance of jumping to the lands. However I did load up some 185gr and 190 VLD's but needed to seat them out just off...

Looking for a base to use on a 700 in a AX chassis, found these bases that appear to be made by AI specifically for use on rem 700 with AX. It looks like the top of the rail will be in line with the top rail on the forearm tube. (if installed)...

Hello, so I'm looking for dies for 223 Ackley and all I can seem to find is "223 Rem Improved 40". I assume that since 223 AI has a 40 degree shoulder this is just another way of saying it and these are the dies I need. Just want to make sure. Thanks in advance.
