    AIAX...I'm in love!

    After messing around for years with .308, I went to 6.5 Creedmoor in a couple of Remington actions with Bartlein barrels. I put these in Manners stocks and shot ok with them but it was nothing that I considered outstanding. Between me and the rifle and the factory ammo, I figured there was...

    Barrel contours on Eurooptic and Mile High Shooting AI rifles in the 6.5/.260?

    Does anyone know what barrel contours are of the AIAX rifles from Mile High and from Eurooptic? The latter advertises a 24" barrel while the former has a 26" but I can't find any information beyond that. Does anyone know who does the re-barrels on them (they don't come in those calibers...

    Ring height to mount S&B scope on AIAX?

    I will be mounting a 4-16x42 PM II on a AIAX. What is the lowest ring height that will work for me? What about a one-piece mount?

    Rifle Scopes QD mount with optic sitting lowest?

    Looking at using an AR for a dedicated "long range" platform and have only done so using risers and normal rings in the past. I'd like to put the optic in a QD mount but most of the mounts that I've seen and used are higher off the rail than I want for a more dedicated "long distance" optic and...

    Leather sling for hunting rifle

    I'm normally not big on wooden stocks but I have a gorgeous CZ550 that will retain it's wooden stock. I need a dark leather sling for it, perhaps distressed leather. Any recommendations on a custom maker for something like this? I can browse Google all day long but I would prefer a personal...

    POF in 6.5 Creedmoor!

    I always wanted one of the ones that was basically custom but now it looks like they have 6.5 Creedmoor as a standard option. Anyone been shooting one of these? Positives or negatives? Before I drop $2600 or so on one I want to know the experience that people have had since there seems to be...

    Rifle Scopes S&B Short Dot 1-4: Still a contender?

    Not long ago the S&B Short Dot seemed to be the relatively undisputed king of low-power variables. Now the market is lousy with most places putting out AT LEAST a 1-4 power optic and many now at 1-6 or even 1-8 power or greater. Is the S&B Short Dot still a contender, then? In regard to...

    Info Request RE: B&C and HS Precision stocks

    I have a Remington 700 in .338 Winchester Magnum that has a Remington detachable magazine. I want to change stocks and put it in either a B&C or HS Precision stock but neither company's site is all that great in regard to showing someone exactly which stock to choose. The choices are those two...

    Cure me of some ignorance on DPMS .308 ARs

    Does a standard AR15 Geiselle trigger work in a DPMS .308 lower? Does a Bravo Company grip fit the DPMS .308 lower? Does a Magpul UBR stock work with the DPMS .308 lower? It seems that I've read that it does but needs a different buffer. Does the .308 use the same recoil spring as the .260...

    Lowest rings for 42mm obj S&B over R700 Varmint

    I've had my 4-16x42 S&B mounted in the Badger rings that came with the scope (bought it used here). They seem a bit high but I used what was immediately available. I'm now looking to mount the scope a little lower for a better cheek weld. What are the lowest 34mm rings that will accommodate...

    Gunsmithing Aftermarket trigger for Remington M7 with X-mark?

    While it's no precision rifle, I love my little Remington Model 7 but want to replace the X-mark trigger with something different. I've backed the screw out so far I feel like it's going to impale my finger at some point. A lot of aftermarket trigger manufacturers don't make an aftermarket for...

    Suppressors Suppressing 12" LMT piston gun with AAC 762SDN6?

    Anyone put an AAC 762SDN6 on a 12" LMT piston gun? The piston looks like it sticks out far enough to crowd the suppressor once it's mounted up or might not even allow it to mount. Not sure but that's just how it looks by eyeballing it. Before I commit to buy the LMT, I need to find this out.

    Gunsmithing Winchester Model 70 in .22-250 rebarrel to .260?

    Ammo carrier question

    I remember someone posting a picture of a rifle with a nylon ammo carrier mounted just forward of the ejection port on a bolt rifle. I thought that this was an Eagle product but can't find it on their site. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, could you provide a link?

    LMT MWS questions

    Yes, I've used the search function and read the long thread in this sub-forum but I wanted to ask a couple of questions in my very own thread. First, what are these going for right now? Who has the best prices? What is the availability? Second, are there any known issues with them? Anything...

    Gunsmithing Barrel makers and lead times

    What barrel maker has the shortest delivery time right now or might have in stock what I want? Going to have an older R700 action barreled to a 26" (or 24" or 28") 6.5 Creedmoor with a Remington varmint contour.

    HS Precision sporter stocks?

    I've had numerous examples of PSS, LTR, and VS stocks but have never used a sporter stock from HS Precision and wondered just how narrow the forearm was on them. I would be putting it on a Remington long action. Is the forearm as narrow (or narrower) than the factory wood stocks?
