    Re: New Badger M2008 Rifle CWSShooter, I agree with you completely they are extremely talented and build top notch rifles no doubt about that! They do other things for a living and very important roles at that. I do expect to get what I specd out and paid for though in any business...

    Re: New Badger M2008 Rifle Yeah I don't want to flame anyone yet but my rifle is going back! WRONG BARREL! I was all excited about it getting in and went to the range and shot 60 rounds through it. I couldn't really tell how good it could shoot because the LOP was wrong for me and the...

Almost to the point have to hammer the bolt for it to chamber. the second round is a lot easier and 3-10 feel like I have an empty mag they are...

    Re: AICS LOP screws They are M6 x 1 x 50mm Metric Socket Head Cap Screws (Full Thread). I had no luck finding anyone who sold them individually in black locally.

    Re: New Badger M2008 Rifle Wow since April? Why so long? I know my build went quicker due to them having the exact barrel I was looking for and the AICS 2.0 in house. Plus my action from Badger arrived 5 days after ordered which knocks off the time it takes to accurize a Remmy action. They...

    Re: Badger M2008 Builds.....Where are they?? Pics... Hey Darin, I think its personal preference. Have you used any of the higher end scopes with larger objectives? I questioned the same thing when I decided to go with a 12-42 instead of a 5.5-22. Im glad I got it now. I like having the...
