    Rifle Scopes Best $1500 CAD Scope?

    100%, it's been a big misconception between EAR and ITAR for a long time - some people up here still claim it is a "thing" so they can charge people the fee for the ITAR export license and then go file their license for free with Commerce/BIS. The last several times I've brought up customer...

    Rifle Scopes Best $1500 CAD Scope?

    FYI, ITAR doesn't apply to 95% of the scopes on the market. The only exception to that would be (as far as I know) certain ACOG's and other scopes that would have an NSN for issue to the military. Anything else is covered for export purposes under U.S. Department of Commerce and can be...

    Rifle Scopes March 3x24x52, Anyone have their hands on one yet?

    Haven't had a chance to put any lead downrange yet but some pics and thoughts: The objective bell on it seems a lot more proportional IMO as the 42mm model seemed pretty small im my mind. I was doing a bit of "neighborhood surveillance" at dusk the first night they arrived and I found (again...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    I re-purposed a Rem 700 McM A-TH for my build (I bought mine when it was still called an A-Hole, hehe) The only concern I would have if using it as a hunter/ walking rifle is if I was to fall while my hand was in the pistol grip - could end up with a dislocated or busted thumb due to how small...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    It will feed, just need a DBM that takes Alpha mags - Also a magnum bolt would work but good luck trying to get one by itself. I'll try to get some pics of mine up soon, just needs some massaging of the stock since it started life as a McM Rem 700 SA stock ;-)

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    That's all I ended up doing cause I couldn't wait for the "proper" dies to come out- you just need the following parts to swap out (assuming your dies are Reddings): Redding part no. 11263, 6.5mm Decap assembly Redding part no. 09167, VLD micrometer seating assembly Neck bushings of proper size

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    What diameter does that pipe measure at the muzzle? Really digging that profile (and weight). Beats the hell out of my 16 pounder :-P

    Gunsmithing Pink Cerakote suggestions

    Just recently did a customer's Sig 220 slide and frame in pink, found that doing a light fogging coat then flash baking it for 15 min helped get the second coat to be more uniform without having to lay it on crazy thick.

    Done my research and still over my head on 6mm

    Re: Done my research and still over my head on 6mm What about 6mm Crusader? 115 DTACs at ~3250fps. Built one for a friend and its a hammer at 1k. Uses 6mm Rem brass, fireform and you're golden(even the fire forming loads showed reasonable accuracy.)

    aics savage?

    Re: aics savage? Just a heads up, Alberta Tactical didn't make the Savage AI chassis - they subcontracted my company to manufacture them. I stopped production of them once I heard AI was going to be making their own, didn't see any point in pissing in AI's cornflakes if they were coming out...
