    Need opinion on stock for Rem 700

    I have a Choate stock and liked it. Like others have said its not light, but felt very sturdy. It was a good stock to use while you are doing other modifications to the rifle so you can afford more ammo. My one dislike on it (and only having one dislike on such a cheap stock is a huge plus in...

    gain twists?

    Yeah, I'm not sure where this idea that torque is applied when the bullet leaves the barrel came from, but due to the laws of physics they are claiming to quote that is impossible. Torque is applied to the barrel when you take a non rotating bullet, and force it to start rotating with the...

    Gunsmithing Removing engraving/type?

    I would like to remove the stupid "please read our instruction manual befor using a firearm" from the barrel of my otherwise beautiful GP-100 Revolver. Is there a way of doing it decently well? I could have access to a full machine shop for this, but hand/power tools are easier and at my house.

    Re: Need some advice on a build gone wrong There's another thread floating around on it. "Superior Tactical Solutions" is the company. If you google them, there is a history of this sort of unacceptable behavior.

    Ammo availability? 5.56

    I know why the run on guns and ammo for the last week or so.......but: Does anyone have any info on the bulk 62gr steel core 5.56 Ammo? Designated XM855. It's been "sold out, no back order" for many months. Tried googling, but didn't get anything recent on why it would be a shortage.

    Ballistic Info for .308 175gr SMK

    Re: Ballistic Info for .308 175gr SMK While sub MOA I can believe. A group like that at 500 means it is ~0.2 MOA accuracy or less. 0.2 MOA out to 500 yds, no, I dont believe. Unless its one of those once in a lifetime groups where the stars aligned. The M4 style design just does not have...
