    Cold bore problem AE MkIII

    I am REALLY enjoying my brand new AE w the factory 24" 308 barrel. The folks at Europtic took great care of me on the purchase. I have 200 rounds through it with 175/178/180 Amaxs, Matchkings and Hybrids all on top of a moderate load of Varget at approx 2550fps. With a dirty fouled bore...

    Spuhr and AI

    Love my Spuhr rings and was very excited to mount them on my new AE but was disappointed to find that it's a no go. The factory AI rail isn't true mil spec and the filled gaps in the rail won't allow the finest rings on the planet to mate. The answer is always more money.

    FN SPR Help

    I have an issue with a rifle and have attempted to contact Action Guy here and it seems he's no longer registered. Trying FN's employee directory, it seems that Ben Voss is no longer with the company. I know he was very helpful to many here and had hoped he could help me navigate the...

    Gunsmithing Bedding order.....

    Receiver (M700 SA) isn't true so I need to bed scope rail. Should I bed the receiver to the stock first and then bed the scope rail or rail first and then stock?

    Gunsmithing It doesn't shoot once it warms up.....

    FN SPR A1 (now A5) shoots cold bore into .250MOA at 100yds with boring consistency. I's been bedded with Devcon at the tang and from the front of the recoil lug back to the front of the magwell. No pad is under the chamber. I've been very pleased with this gun's accuracy and the load I've...

    Looking for bullets, like everyone else....

    Anybody know where I can find bullets? I know many must have the same Q. I've been doing this for quite a few years and I have many sources but I can't find what I want. This isn't a WTB ad - gonna do that elsewhere when I also list a pile of like things to sell. I'm just looking for...

    Gunsmithing Stock Paint/Work

    I need a fiberglass stock fitted with a new Decellerator and then I thought while I'm at it I'd like to snazz it up with a Multicam paint job and since it's a bit overweight for its purpose I was also hoping to hog out some excess material in the forend and butt while in the process. I would...

    Rifles Only/Steinert Super Chrono

    I decided to pull the trigger on one of these chronos and after having a bit of difficulty ordering online direct from Germany, I learned that our very own Texas neighbors at Rifles Only are handling the product here stateside. A quick call on Saturday confirmed that they had the product in...

    Gunsmithing Bedding trends

    It seems that many of the pros these days are bedding with a short area of support under the shank. Are my observations correct? What is the theory on this? I have a few McMillans coming and I've been happy with my own skills in the bedding department but I'm thinking about changing my...

    Rifle Scopes Love my Spuhrs but......

    My rings don't sit level on my scope base. That is, they are high with a small gap under/between base and ring on side opposite of the clamping plate. On the clamping side, the rings sit down tight against the base. This kind of defeats the purpose of the canting bubbles. I have built in...

    Badger or Surgeon?

    I've had a blast with my Remington MLR but would now like to build something more precise. I prefer the bolt throw of the 2008 over the Surgeon as it is like my 308 and rimfire trainer as well as simply a bit easier to operate while prone. I also like the fact that it's just a bit more exotic...
