Guys, as many of you know I am doing my best to build an accurate clone. I gave up the project a while back due to financial reasons but now, i'm back at it again. I would like start a build guide for the original M40. And I could use some help to make this as accurate as possible. Theres...

Guys, Last Friday I just finished putting together a new build. Its my first piston system, a POF P415 upper with a Seekins lower. I got a chance to take it to the range for the first time this past Sunday. I loaded up a couple Magpul pmags expecting it to run like a clock, but to my...

Hey guys, Im making progress on my M40 build (not A1) but I am having a heck of a time getting that pressed-in checkering out of the ADL stock. Its quite deep in some areas and my arm is wearing out sanding the stinkin thing. I am wondering if anyone has tips or some advice how I could make...

I have a Remington 700 in 6mm that I want to convert to a 308. Would there be any problems with this conversion other than the bolt face of one is .472 and the other is .473? Are the actions the same otherwise? Thank you

Does anyone here offer this service or know where I might find someone that does? Need the action of my 700 slotted per M40 specs. Thanks!

Hey guys, Just thought i'd share. I got my scope in for my M40 project. It took a while to find but it will do nicely for my build. Its a 2nd generation accurange. It should be a satin black, but could only get my hands on a gloss version. This will soon be corrected with some refinishing...

This may be a dumb question, but is there a way to convert a .378 to a .473? Are the actions the same size? Im trying to discover if I can convert a 222 Remington into a 308 on a model 700 action.

Just curious. Would love to see a couple pictures if you have one.

Searching for the right scope for my M40 project, whats the difference between Redfield Accu-Trac & Accu-Range?

Fellas, In my M40 build project, Im looking for a Redfield 3x9 Accurange scope. In my search for that scope, I came across this Redfield. I dont think its the one used on M40s, but the reticle looks correct. What model is this scope, and how close is it to one used on an M40? What value...

Guys, I've been wanting to do an M40 build for a while now, so i've been searching for the correct donor rifle to use for the project. I am no pioneer in doing an M40 build and wanted to give credit & a big thank you to Matt (monteboy84) for his detailed post on his M40 project. Just for...

Do any of you guys use an ultrasonic cleaner for cleaning gun parts?

Hi, If I were interested in rebarreling a Remington 700, what other calibers will fit a 308 bolt face? Im guessing I could use 22-250 or 243 with that bolt face, but what others am I not thinking of? Thanks guys Short actions only

Hi Guys, As always, a big thank you for helping me further my education in precision shooting. Still being a newbie, I wanted to ask about what exactly is involved with "truing an action"? Does it mean working with the threads of the barrel to archive finer headspace? And, do new rifles...
