I've worked my way through 100 old LC Match cases that I've reloaded 11 times. I've been using a regular Hornady 308 die and have been bumping the shoulder around 2-3 thousandths. They're pretty thin around the base so I think they're toast. I'm getting ready to crack into a stash of Lapua...

I have an old AI AWM that has the canted integral night vision mount welded to to the chassis. The rifle is a G22 variant that the German military has used for years. At any rate, the mount was originally designed to be used specifically with with a Hensoldt NSV 80 clip on and the Hensoldt...

If you've got one, I want one.

Not sure what's going on but hopefully you guys might be able to help me trouble shoot. I had a load I was using last winter that started giving me some stiff bolt lift as the weather has warmed up. I my load was 46.5 2000MR in old Lake City match brass with a 190 smk 20 thou off the lands...

I was thinking I'd like to have one of the older 1/12 26 inch barrels for my AW 308. I'm talking about the one with the thinner profile and coke bottle shaped shoulder. Almost looks like it might have been a light palma. Anyone have any info on these barrels regarding dimensions or who might...

As the title says, anyone have experience good or bad using Lapua Palma Brass with 2000 MR in below freezing temps? Ive heard of problems with small rifle primers causing hangfires with this powder in cold temps. Anyone have first hand experience with this combination?

I'm thinking its probably time for a new one but oddly enough the guy that does my barrels talked me out of it. His thoughts were that it shouldn't be dead yet. Here's the details. Its had a steady diet of reloader 22 its entire life which i understand isn't very kind to barrels. Its...

Anyone have one of these that can give me a ring to ring overall length? It appears NF doesn't publish the dimensions and I can't seem to get em on the phone. Thanks.

I had a Harris BRM-S snap off at the point where the leg assembly is welded to the mounting plate. Now what? Replace with another Harris or buy something else? I really like the Harris but after some research it looks like I'm not the only one who's had this problem.

I've got an older AW that I'm thinking about swapping the trigger out on as I'm having hard time with the somewhat cramped grip of the old style stock in relation to the location of the trigger. In other words, I'd like to increase my length of pull with the trigger. With the new triggers...

Yeah... I know its not 2003 anymore but I still like the old classic style AI rifles. Up until the last couple years they didn't get much use. Now they get shot at least once a weak. I've found that the grip just doesn't seem to fit me all that well. I was wondering if anyone has come up...

Is there such a thing as a field worthy two stage trigger that has an adjustable shoe for length of pull for those of us with long monkey fingers? I'm currently using a calvin elite on a classic aics chassis and find the grip a little cramped when prone. Thanks.

I've been starting to get bolt over base type malfunctions on the last round in the mag. I'm shooting a 300 win mag in a Rem 700 in a classic AICS chassis. The mag is an original AI mag. I'm guessing I need to tweek the feed lips but before I start down that road I figured I'd consult here...

I tryed some Lapua Palma brass in my AW today to see if I might need to have my bolt bushed to shoot small rifle primers. I ran some Palma loads that push a 155 Sierra at about 2800 out of my 20inch AW. I don't see any cratering at all. Does this load produce enough pressure to give an...

Looking at a new rifle and I'm debating making the change from 300 win mag which I have a lot of experience with to 300 Norma. It seems to me that 300 Norma doesn't really offer a huge performance increase to 300 win mag even with the heavy .30s but brass costs are significantly higher in...

I brought this little gem back with me a few years ago. I still think it's one of the coolest of all the military configuration AI rifles. Purchased while serving overseas so no import marks. I'm really debating whether or not to shoot it or just keep staring at it in the case. I really...

I've got a rem 700 300 win mag with primary extraction issues and the lugs are galling due to a poorly fitted barrel. I'm done sinking money into it. It sits in an old aics chassis which I actually like. I'm looking at either dropping a defiance deviant barreled action into that chassis and...

http://soldiersystems.net/2018/03/23/ussocom-adopts-6-5-cm/ With all the advantages associated with the 6.5 I'm left wondering if it has the potential to sideline the 300 win mag for military use. It certainly doesn't have the same barrier blind or terminal performance capability as the Win...

Is it possible or has anyone had the guts to convert their pre 2014 ax to accept the set screw for the quick change barrel?

I have a problem in that I have a tendency to want to push my shoulder forward into the rifle when in position rather than relaxing my shoulder and letting the recoil just hit it. I'm having a hell of a time breaking this habit. Anyone have any advice?
