    PA 22 brass?

    Anyone try TRACE ammo in 223

    Hey all, As title states, have you tried TRACE's 223 ammo? I contacted them to ask if brass was new or once fired and what headstamp they used. It turns out be to new AUSA brass. After a little research, A USA is armscorp brass I believe. Most of what I read is saying that brass isn't all...

    Hey all, Had this rifle bedded but could never get it to shoot. Initially, I found some hollow spots on tang area. Yesterday night, I pulled it apart and found that the area around the front pillar, inside the recoil lug area, was not filled completely. You can see the bedding compound is...

    So aside from the obvious, cycling the bolt over and over, what can I do to make a bolt cycle smoother? I bought a brand new howa mini to give my dad for hunting. I've already spent some coin in getting a decent bottom metal for it (the factory one sucks since it's plastic), and even had it...

    Rifle Scopes LRTS/LRHS vs XTRIII

    Guys, Is this even a question? At this point, I have a collection of LRTS/LRHS scopes and really like them for what they are. All but one are illuminated models. Being that the XTRIII USA made are non illum, it's got me thinking whether it would make for a good upgrade. I do prefer...

    Hunting & Fishing 130 AR hybrid or 120/123 AMAX on deer?

    Hey all, Just wondering who uses 130 AR hybrids to hunt? I'm mostly curious to see how far out you're using them with success. I'm not trying to hunt super long distances with them but I may just load them in the grendel which has slower MV which is the reason why I ask. I know they work...

    Gunsmithing Bedding question

    ORIGINAL POST DOWN BELOW **EDITED TO ADD** Ok so I think you guys pretty much convinced me to go all out and install pillars. There is actually a very close family friend with a drill press and so long as he lets me use it, I'm sure I can get the holes drilled in perfectly square. I think...

    Hunting rifle for dad?

    Hello all, While my dad did not ask for a new rifle, I always love finding excuses to buy or build another one lol. Anyhow, he's been shooting 270 for a while and for the type of hunting that we do, it's just too much. Today he shot the big deer that he's had on trail cam at his lease and...
