    AR builds complete!

    That's a good possibility. He has a 24" match Black Hole Weaponry barrel. I picked up the 18" DPMS mini SASS barrel from Midway. Either way, I can't wait to see how they shoot!!!

    AR builds complete!

    Two builds I just completed. The cool looking one is mine. Dad wanted his to look a little more like a "varmint" rifle.

    Any leads on AR15 barrels?

    Re: Any leads on AR15 barrels? I was lucky enough to snag a DPMS mini SASS barrel from midwayUSA a couple days before xmas. Now they are sold out with NO BACKORDER.

    Any leads on AR15 barrels?

    Re: Any leads on AR15 barrels? Thanks for the links. I am leaning towards the Black Hole barrels. Dad is pretty picky and wants the bull barrel (varmint type rig). I think I can handle a 6-12 week wait.

    Any leads on AR15 barrels?

    I started building two ARs before all the nonsense started and instead of being irresponsible with my money, I decided to take my time and order pieces when I had the extra money. Well thanks to some fucking nutjob, AR parts are few and far between. One is for myself and the other is for my dad...

    Double Star??

    Re: Double Star?? Stag makes a dedicated 3 gun rifle that works great as a varmint gun as well. If you can get your hands on one, definitely the way to go. A buddy of mine has one and he loves it. I'll dig up some specs for you.

    Re: Proud New Owner..... Thanks for the load ideas. I have a SHITLOAD of Nosler 168 CC pills I was using in my LTR .308 until I switched to the 155 A-Max. I'll start around 44.5 of Varget and work up.

    Proud New Owner.....

    Re: Proud New Owner..... Thanks fellas...I really wish they made these in .260. But the .308 will do just fine. Now I'm waiting patiently for my Falcon 4-14x44 ML16.

    Proud New Owner.....

    Rifle Scopes SIgh - old eyes problem

    Re: SIgh - old eyes problem I feel your pain. I'm only 32 and my vision is horrible. I have "floaters" real bad. I'm to the point where I don't even enjoy shooting anymore. And the worst part about it is there is nothing that can be done to fix the problem. I can get contacts or glasses to...

    Gunsmithing Going rate for cerakote

    Re: Going rate for cerakote Thanks for the link. I may be contacting one these fine gentlemen to cerakote my barreled action for me. I may even try Aluma-Hyde II. It's a bench gun so it basically just needs to stand up to harsh bore cleaners.

    Gunsmithing Going rate for cerakote

    Re: Going rate for cerakote How well does cerakoting stand up to cleaners? I spent hours on my Savage .260 barreled action and when I put some Hoppes #9 in the barrel, the paint came off the muzzle.
