    About to lose my best friend

    In October my dog was diagnosed with bone cancer in her jaw. I elected to get the surgery after test had showed it hadn't spread. The last several weeks she hasn't been herself. Coughing and lack of energy. I took her in today and x-rays showed the cancer had spread throughout her chest...

    Rifle Scopes S&B 5-25 Elevation question

    I recently acquired a S&B 5-25 H2CMR with the DT MTC turrets. I noticed that it has 22 mils in total elevation on the turret whereas the standard DT turrets and the new locking MTC turrets both have 26 mils in total elevation. I'm aware that I will NEVER use 26 mils or 22 mils for that matter...

    Any reason not to go with 28"?

    I'm having a .260 built as soon as my KMW Sentinel arrives any day now. I purchased a 31" 1-8 twist barrel from Bruno's only because they had it in stock with the profile and twist that I wanted without having to wait. I know shorter barrels are all the rage here and some consider longer...

    Vertx

    Does anyone have any experience with their clothing? It seems like quality stuff I've just never had an opportunity to see it other than online.

    Anyone running a 28" barrel on their .260?

    Just like the title says.....I was wondering if anyone is running a 28" barrel on their .260 or 6.5 Creedmoor. I bought a 31" Kreiger barrel only because it was the only one I could get quickly. Since I have the ability to finish at a longer length I'm wondering if it's worth the extra length...

    To Surefire or not to Surefire....

    I was planning on putting a Surefire MB 762SS AL/RE on my new build. My intention was to finish the barrel at 20" and eventually purchase a Surefire can. Lately I've reconsidered after reading about the advantages of single point cans. Also the Surefire is impossible to get and is more...

    Gunsmithing Installing Surefire MB762SS AL/RE brake

    I purchased one of these for a current build. I'm just waiting on the new barrel. I've seen different pictures posted and I've noticed the gap between the shoulder and the brake varies from build to build. I realize it doesn't effect function at all but the large gap is visually unappealing...

    Atlas Bipod Question

    Can you mount an ADM 170-S to the regular clamp on version BT-10 Atlas bipod? I just purchased the regular clamp on version and would like to retrofit it with the ADM mount.

    Surgeon bolt handle Karma

    I have a standard Surgeon bolt knob that I'm not using for my next build. I replaced it with a KMW bolt handle. I'll ship it free to whomever needs it. I've taken a lot from this site without really contributing much. That's mostly because I had/have much to learn. This is my small way of...

    Which Knife?

    I wanted to purchase a knife to throw in my pack. I'm torn between and Esee 4 and a Falkniven F1. There's pro's and con's of each. I really like the green micarta handled Esee with the black blade, but the Falkniven seems to have a superior blade. What are you guys carrying in your kit?

    Availability of rifle parts

    I'm newer to long range shooting and after a month or so of lurking and reading and learning I've decided what pieces I want to purchase for my rifle. What's shocking to me in this economy is the lack of availability or wait times on things like a McMillan stock or Surgeon action. Even the...
