Re: Just got my 700 SPSV back... Now what 165gr Hornady SST + 42.5g RL15 = amazing Good til 700 yards. Haven't had the chance to push past that but that's my best load for 600 yard comps =)

I need some straight answers. I was thinking of buying a barrel blank (no contour) and giving my friend whatever measurements he needs to contour, thread and crown it. He is not a gunsmith, he is a mechanical engineer who regularly works with similar requirements on a lathe. I trust him to not...

Re: New to long range shooting. Need some advice... 700 AAC-SD SWFA Super Sniper x10 rear focus EGW 20 moa base Burris XTR 30mm low rings. Harris bipod 6-9inch. Done. I wish I had that planned out for me when I first started. Research sucks =) All of that will be about $1000. You REALLY...

Re: LH Stocks for Remy 700 I just had my lefty Manners t4a come in 2 days ago. Excellent fit and finish. And as a lefty, I just have to say that the choices out there suck. Its either nothing or a custom stock. There really isn't an in between option. Saving up for an aics 2.0 is an...

Re: NEW BUILD Hell bent on a savage eh? Do you have a budget or plans for the rifle? (i.e hunting, long range shooting) .204 Ruger? Any particular reason for that caliber? I don't know anything about it so im curious as to what its used for.

Re: New GAP Rifle Wheres your trigger?

Im planning on ordering a T4A tomorrow but had a few questions. 1. Flush cups? How many people out there get them installed on the side of the rifle? 2. Barrel contour? Would using a sps-v barrel in a 'heavy sendro contour' look weird? Any disadvantages to having a channel being a little...

Re: Nickel plated timney trigger? Figured it was something like that. I ordered one from Brownells but I'll still post the email as well as a quick review.

What does the nickel plating do for the trigger? This is specific to the 510. I emailed timney and I am waiting a response, but I wanted to see if anyone knew off the top of their heads. Either way, I'll post what they have to say.

Unless I can find a decent lefty stock, I'm gonna break down and order a Manners. McMillan wait time sorta sucks too much. So what are the options that are must haves? All I've come to is: T4A(molded I guess) Lefty Chassis Little bipod stud? Side note: I'm so frustrated with being lefty and...

Re: Help a LEO win some equipment!!! Voted and confirmed =)

2 bad questions: If the stock is the molded in color, can you paint over that? How crappy would it look? Could you get rid of that coat without destroying the factory gelcoat? I have a SPS-V that I want to put in a new stock. If the stock is inletted for "bdl bottom inlet" or "badger m5"...

Loaded up 165g SST with 42g of RL-15. They are rockets. Accurate as all hell. I was loading to fire-form cases and randomly picked this powder and bullet. Man, what luck. I can't wait to shoot this load with fire-formed cases. Has anyone else had success with 165g SSTs? I'm still astounded by...

Re: Remmington question? And more Ok so here's the deal with factory rifles. They almost all shoot 1.5 moa or better. Thats a little more accuracy than you would need for the average hunting shot. What it really comes down to (in my opinion) is the action and the caliber. The 700 action is...

Re: Remmington question? And more I'm pretty sure the 770 is the "economy" version. If you are trying to save money, I'd recommend a savage rifle.
