First let me state this is not a wanted add. I am not looking to buy a used BCG. I just rounded up all the parts for my first AR with the exception of a BCG. Does anyone know where to find one? I've looked everywhere I know too and they all seem to be sold out. Is this due to the election and...

I have a Remington xcr tactical long range 308 that shoots consistent 1/2 MOA all the time. Has shot in the .3's during bench-rest comps. I'm wanting to re-barrel it to either 6xc, 6 creedmore or 6x47L. Is it safe to say if the gun shoots this good with the factory barrel that it will shoot the...

My remington 700 xcr LRT in 308 never has any copper in the barrel. I asked a local gunsmith (friend of mine) to clean it for me just to be sure there was nothing in it that I was not getting out. After he cleaned it for me he said the barrel felt really good and that he didn't get any copper...
