Re: The .270 win for long range. Why not ? If you are going to AI it anyway and don't want to go to something like a 7mm RM or 300 WM (which would require bolt work) you might want to consider 280 Rem (which is a 7mm on the '06 cartridge). That way if you punch it out to 280 AI you can get...

Re: The .270 win for long range. Why not ? 800 to 1000 yard shot at a deer? We talking white tails? Where do you hunt? That is a long shot for a deer. 270 is one of the all time top deer hunting rounds in this country, but as the people above said at that range you need to worry about...

Re: Who Makes the Lightest Stock for a Rem 700? A sheep hunting mountain rifle? Seems like a McMillan Mountrain Rifle, Hunter's Edge, or KS, in Edge fill, would be just the ticket.

Re: Opinions on fodder for a build You might have a hard time finding a smith to true a Ruger action. And you would never get your money back on that investment...

Re: Manners Mini-Chassis opinion? I haven't had alot of experience with my mini-chassis yet as I don't get much range time these days. One thing to keep in mind is the trigger that you will be using. The chassis is milled out for a Rem pattern trigger. When I swapped out the factory...

Re: Remington 700 model questions Understand that when you buy most model 700 SPS rifles the stock is pretty much free after you factor in the cost of the barreled action. I am starting a nice collection of injection molded model 700 stocks. I think I might give them to my kids to use as...

Re: McMillans newest tactical stock..... McMillan stocks don't have gaudy tacticool names. Since it resembles a TAC50 and has an A4 forend then call it a TAC-A4, so when they make a version with an A5 forend they can call it a TAC-A5, etc. I still like the simplicity of Tactical Rifle...

Re: Question re Sinclair Priming Tool Thanks guys. According to the directions the shims that the tool comes with (that come installed) are to index the Knurled Head and sit between the Primer Punch Housing and the Tool Body. I am going to reach out to Sinclair.

Re: McMillans newest tactical stock..... Why does the name have to be gaudy? Or an acronym? Tactical Rifle Stock (you can call it TRS if you must have acronyms).

Re: DMR Pics I put this together a few years ago but unfortunately since then I haven't been able to do much shooting so it sits in the safe most of the time. It is my take on a NY legal SAM-R and sort of a mirror (in feel) to my A2 pattern CMP Service Rifle. -T marked BCM upper (they were...

I feel like I am missing something so if someone can help me figure this out I would appreciate it. All terms are from the Sinclair instruction manual. I installed the Sinclair "Shell Holder" into the "Knurled Head" as per instructions and tightened the set screw. When i screw the "Knurled...

Re: Remington 700 model questions Out of those three the SPS Varmint is the clear winner for your use. The 24 inch barrel SPS has a sporter (medium light) contour barrel. Nice for hunting (I have a few) but you sound like your main use for it will be target shooting. Better to go with the...

Re: best place to get a mcmillan online I have a stock on order through 24hour campfire now. I ordered when JW stopped their special orders with McM. Their prices were roughly comparable before JW dropped out of the McM special order game. As above, you are special ordering it (with the...

Re: T2 changed to a T2A No fear of voiding the warranty on the stock doing such an extreme mod?

Re: last new rifle Your plan is unsound. Generally speaking, long range precision rifles are very different than hunting rigs. LR rifles are big and bulky while hunting rifles tend to be light and portable. Different stock designs. LR stocks are closer to benchrest stocks than they are...

Re: Manners Molded in Camo pictures? Here is my MCS-T in molded GAP. The pics are kind of dark but the stock came out very nice.

Re: Rem LTR vs Rem XCR tactical vs Rem model 7 KS Is this your first hunting rifle? If so you are barking up the wrong tree looking at 2 fluted bull barrel tactical rifles and 1 custom shop rifle. If you want a nice light Model 7 in 308 buy a Model 7 synthetic and order a McMillan stock of...
