    Barrett MRAD Barrels?

    I know that Barrett finally got the 308 MRAD out but can anybody make a barrel in another caliber? I don't really see Barrett doing something like a 6 creedmoor.

    Sig Blaser 2

    I found a pretty good deal on one of these but don't know much about them. The straight bolt is kind of cool and I like different. Is there one reciever size and all the mags, 308 to 338 fit the chassis? The big downside I see is huge price for barrels and bolt faces if you want different...

    Action Truing/Rebarrel

    Here's what I got, Remington 700 XCR Tactical, 300win. It shoots great, after the brake install and re-crown I get somewhere close to a quarter inch at 100. The barrel isn't close to being worn out, I was going to do a switch barrel/PSR type build. My local smith wants to true the action when he...

    6mm Creedmoor vs 6.5mm Creedmoor 20" Speeds

    I'm deciding on a cartridge for a 20" barrel build. I was leaning toward a 7mm variant but I'm liking my 260 I just built with a 26" barrel. I think a 6.5 Creedmoor might be a little better for the short barrel? I have a buddy that has a 6CM and wants me to try it in a 20" but I think the 6...

    260 Guys, Help?

    I took my 260 out today and was planning on just breaking in the barrel so I didn't really go crazy with the loads. No trickling the powder weights, whatever the measure dropped was good. It was around 41.1g of H4350 with Nosler custom comp 140's at 2.83", it shot just a hair under .5" at 100...

    AX/AW Mags in AX/AI Chassis

    So I got my Badger AX rifle pretty much done. It feeds the AXCS and AICS single stack mags just fine but not the real AX double stack mag and I assume AW as well. I will try an AW this weekend. Badger inletted the chassis for me and they told me the have 2 different inlets AICS whether its for...

    Tight Bore 260 Loads?

    My smith is finishing up my Badger 2013 with an Obermyer tight bore barrel in 260 this week and I have no idea where to start with loads. I've know the tight bore needs less powder but don't know how much less. I've heard as little as .5g to 4g, that's a big difference. I plan on starting with...

    Barnard SM and AI Mags

    Has anybody played around with an SM in any stock/DBM that uses AICS mags? I know the Barnard 07 chassis uses HS mags but would an AICS mag work with it in a Manners mini chassis?

    The new Bighorn TL2 says it can be machined for AW mags, will the Manners mini chassis work with AW mags?

    6.5 SLR Chambering

    So I have a barrel sitting here that I was going to do a 260, but now I think the SLR is what I want to go with. Who can chamber the barrel for the SLR and a Badger action? Also where would I get dies?

    260 vs 6.5 SLR

    Anybody played with a 6.5 SLR and a 260? I have a 6.5mm barrel and was going to do a 260, but after reading a little about the 6.5SLR it sounded a little more interesting to me. They say its worth about 100fps over the 260 I was wondering if that was true. My buddy has a 6 Competition Match, a...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Elite Tactical BTR-MIL

    I just recieved a 6-24x50 with the illuminated BTR-MIL reticle and only the dot and circle in the center light up. I thought the whole reticle lit up, Bushys website is just about worthless for this info. Does anybody know if thats right?

    Accuracy International Target Butt Plate

    Anybody know if the AI target butt plate is adjustable for length of pull also or just angle and height? I need to order one and I think I may want the butt a little longer so if it isn't adjustable for LOP then I need some spacers too.

    "Perfect" Cartridge for Suppressed 18-20"?

    I see a lot of posts about wanting a shorter barrel so the rifle is still maneuverable with 10" of can on it. It got me wondering if there is an ideal cartridge for this. It seems like there will probably be a trade off in barrel life trying to get speed back up with a faster powder since...

    Gunsmithing 338 Barrel?

    I was thinking about ordering a barrel and starting to round up parts for 338 build. I was looking at Bugholes website and saw a note for a 4" cylinder on some barrels. I was leaning toward a 338 Edge because its a Savage 110 single shot action in 7 mag and it doesn't need to fit a mag. But 300...

    Gunsmithing What Finish for my Badger?

    So I'm patiently waiting for my M2013 action and a barrel and I'm not sure what finish I want. I like whatever Remington uses on their XCR Tactical Long Range but not sure how the difference in metal between Remingtons stainless vs Badgers steel wouldd make. Its going in an AIAX Chassis and the...

    Action Coatings

    So I ordered my Badger action this week and when it gets here I was thinking I may want to coat the bolt in nickel boron and the action in something like melonite. I have a 700 XCR Tactical and whatever they do to the action and barrel seems smooth and durable. I want that for this rifle. I'm...
