    Boyd Tacticool stock floor plate question

    Got a Tacticool stock for my Savage MKII. It is a new E receiver. I also ordered a DIP heavy floor plate to use but it's too long. Will the non-E DIP floor plate work or do I have to use the factory Savage floor plate that Boyds lists on their website to use? I had also planned on getting the...

    Gunsmithing Help! I installed my trigger wrong

    So I got the bright idea to install my new trigger myself. Bad idea. The Timney instructions say not to drive the pins out so far that the bolt stop and bolt stop spring don't fall out. Well my last little "tap" wasn't so little and I drove the pin all the way out and the bolt stop and spring...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold M2 knob problem?

    I got a mark 4 3.5-10 with M3 knobs. I sent it to Leupold and had the 1/2 moa M2 knobs put on. I went out to zero my rifle today and it bottomed out. Luckily I only needed another 1/2 moa or so to get it perfect for a 100 yard zero so I just made do. I have a 20 moa base also. Was I really at...

    Attaching sling to top of stock?

    I'm trying to mount a sling to my Rem 700 in a B&C light tactical stock. I want to mount it to the top of the rear of the stock. I use an Eagle stock pack though so I'm looking for options on how to mount it. I tried using an A2 stock connector but it put it too far forward so it was under...

    Rifle Scopes Why can't I find this scope?

    I am in need of some new glass. Every time I think I find something it has some funky reticle or illumination or some other un needed crap that just raises the price or won't work at a LR school. C'mon people why can't you make a freaking scope with a freaking basic mil based reticle with mil...

    Rifle Scopes MIL/MIL fixed 10x choices?

    I thought I was set on the IOR fixed 10x cause I really like the MP8 reticle but they aren't available with MIL knobs. Are there any other fixed 10x scopes out there available in MIL/MIL other then a USO ST10? I can't find anything.

    Range Report 69 gr. SMK vs. 77 gr. SMK

    Which would preform better at 600 yards? Going off of the Black Hills catalog it says the 69 grain SMK is 100 fps faster. This got me wondering which one would fight the wind better. I assumed the 77 since the BC is higher but when I saw the 69 was faster I wasn't sure. Anyone have any first...
