    CG X-Treme Mod 22 trigger in AICS question

    I have an X-Treme Model 22 trigger in an AICS AX chassis that had to be modified for it to fit properly. By properly, I mean that although I could get the barreled action tightened in the chassis, the safety plate of the trigger assembly would contact the side of the chassis when the action...

    F marked front sight?

    In order to address not only the 0.040" height difference between a standard FSB and that of an 'F-marked' FSB, here is an image of a detachable carry handle from an early 90's Colt 'Blue Label' 6700 Competition H-BAR vs that of a current production Colt M4. The Colt 6700 came from the factory...

    CG Jackson trigger in AICS

    Alternatively, you can take a bit off of the safety disk and leave the chassis alone.

    Gunsmithing Surgeon action wrench for Remington 700?

    Are you looking to remove the factory R700 barrel with it? I use the Surgeon wrench for switching between barrels and find that it works great, but I'm not sure that I'd use it for removing a factory barrel that is likely torqued way over the 100 ft-lb max rating.

    Rifle Scopes one piece 30mm scope mount manufacturers?

    Where to shoot in MN

    ...there's also 300m F-Class matches at MGFC in St. Francis, MN. Those are open to the public and held on the weekends if that's something you're looking for. They have a nice electronic scoring system there, but there are rules regarding allowed bullet types in order to limit wear and tear on...

    Where to shoot in MN

    Harris does have a relaxed 1000yd F-Class match (by relaxed, I mean that it's more or less a practice session...shoot as much or as little as you want) open to the public on Thursday evenings although I'm not sure how long it runs through the fall. Once you decide to stretch the legs a bit it's...

    Rifle Scopes Which mount for my TRG22

    I have a 20" TRG-22 with the factory 0MOA rail and the same NF F1 scope you're using...I decided to go with the Nightforce UniMount (A190, I believe) and couldn't be happier. 20 MOA built in and it's a very low-profile look. If you want a picture let me know and I'll post one.

    After market ax50 muzzlebrake options?

    You may want to check with Chris Drake of Drake Associates. They have a 50 BMG muzzle brake design that I believe Chris said may be available in metric threads. That's about all the information I have other than copying his contact info from a thread here since the brake he's sending me is...

    whats new and exciting in the 308 AR handguard arena?

    As for the PRI balance, it is a relatively lightweight forend but with the chunk of a barrel I have on this 260 I don't know if I'd honestly notice much of a difference between the PRI and something perhaps a few ounces heavier. I like the feel of the composite material, especially in cooler...

    whats new and exciting in the 308 AR handguard arena?

    Another vote for the PRI tube. I have a DD Lite Rail on a 308 Win and the PRI on a 260 Rem and would take the PRI rail any day of the week. I haven't had a chance to try any of the 'new' tubes that have come out lately, though.

    Sako trg bipod solutions

    If you have a Picatinny rail adapter for your Harris, then you can further decide if you want to get a rail mount for under the forend (such as the BT28) or push it out a bit more and go cantilever style (BT21). I personally use the BT21 mount with an Atlas bipod, and have been very happy with...

    What brake for 300 win mag? Badger FTE?

    I take it that you already have a specific suppressor in mind, one that does not interface with a brake? I have an AAC Mk13 brake on my 300WM and so naturally if suppressors were legal here I'd look into an AAC can for the QD option. As for the Badger FTE, I have one on a 308 and couldn't be...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith needed for chambering a 50 BMG

    Any good gunsmith recommendations for a 50 BMG build? I know we have a ton of reputable 'smiths here on the site; I'm wondering who's worked on 50s before and could barrel a McMillan repeater action for me before I start making calls. Nothing fancy about the barrel, just a standard 29" Lilja...

    Question about Ashbury Spotter Case

    Hard case seems pretty identical to that of a PVS-7. Not sure about the soft case, but PM me if you want any photos/measurements posted of one.
