    Looking for advice

    Thanks to all for the replies. I can say its safe to say that you have all talked me out of the BA110. Call it a brain fart or whatever. Straight shooter has given me some direction to move forward. I am going to add the break to the gun and send some rounds down range. I have a Burris Black...

    Looking for advice

    Thanks for the info. Have you tried any other VLD bullets in your load work up? Also what specs are you running on your loads as far as powder, primer, neck tension, oal? I think i will give the Sendero a shot. I do like the tactical chassis of the Savage. Shooting a rifle with a pistol grip is...

    Looking for advice

    Thanks Straight Shooter! I just looked at the Holland brake and it looks really nice. I think I will take your advice on this. I can do the brake and the rest of the upgrades to the Sendero and give it a try. Worst case if it doesn't work out I can use the scope and base on a replacement rifle...

    Looking for advice

    briang7511, I like the rifle but the problem is the recoil. I would defiantly have to have a brake installed on it. Its not bad for the intended use but as a long range finesse gun, i think that that type of pounding uncompensated would be more detrimental down the road. I have heard allot of...

    Looking for advice

    Thanks for the info. I will defiantly look into this load as I really have no load development for this rifle yet. I have not shot more than 3 boxes of factory loads out of it. I do have a set of Forster dies for it though.

    Looking for advice

    I am trying to decide on which course or path to take with a rifle selection. I would like to start shooting distances of 1000 yards and greater. I am mostly a competitive handgun shooter and my long range rifle experience end at about 600 yards. I have multiple high quality hunting rifles and...

    Has it gone too far? NY content inside.

    Re: Has it gone too far? NY content inside. I live in upstate ny and I am In shock right now. This kind of politics I just plain dirty. The 7 round magazine thing has me just fuming. I have 4 first gen Glocks and two ny compliant XD's. So now I can only put in 7 rounds and have a year to sell...

    New York Got Hammered

    Re: New York Got Hammered I live in upstate NY.one thing that I can tell you is this is not what most of the people in this state want. The majority of NY is rural farm land. The liberals in the city push crap like this down our throats. The city gets more represenatives due to the...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon ACOG 4X?

    Re: Trijicon ACOG 4X? For me, glass quality on my long range high power optics is a major consideration along with adjustability and repeatability. On short range optics, glass quality is a little lower down the chain. One thing all optics have in common, higher the price... usually the...

    Re: *Announcing the 2009 Sniper's Hide Build Rifle * I feel for all the Hyde members that got caught up in this. I've read this thread from front to back with total disbelief. I cant believe that this has gone on as long as it has. I would have gone there and beat by money out of him. Good...

    Badger M2008 Action

    Re: Badger M2008 Action shoot4fun thanks for the info. This will be my first big money bolt gun. I am really leaning towards the AE. I looked at the TRG and it is a nice piece. There is something about that beefy Badger bolt that makes me want to have one built though.

    Badger M2008 Action

    I have been looking to start my build list up for a new bolt gun and have been looking at the Badger M2008 action. Do any of you guys have some experience with this action or should I be looking at something else. Also for those of you that have had custom builds, is it a good way to go over an...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recomendation.

    Re: Scope Recomendation. One other question. I have been looking through the hides classifieds and have seen some IOR scopes for sale. I don't see allot of talk good or bad about them. Anybody have any hands on with them? I am really leaning toward the Vortex based on all the raves about CS...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recomendation.

    I have a DPMS LR-260 that I have dialed in very good. I currently have a VXIII 3.5-10X50 installed on it during the work up period. I have been looking at the Vortex Viper PST for this rifle. I don't really have a place to shoot beyond 600yds and will mostly be punching paper or hitting steel...

    DPMS LR-260 Consistantcy

    Re: DPMS LR-260 Consistantcy Thanks guys. Bowslngr, I am not really pushing the load that much. 39.7 gr of H4350 is well below max load. I have worked a little bit with the BL-C2 powder witch is faster just not as consistant as the 4350. I think that maybe an adjustable gas block adjusted...

    DPMS LR-260 Consistantcy

    Have a question concerning repeatable accuracy with my LR-260. I've been working up a load for 140 A-Max using H4350. Now this may sound funny but it is something I noticed. I am using Nosler brass and it seams that the accuracy is dropping off as the brass has been resized around the third...

    Geissele DMR Adjustment

    Re: Geissele DMR Adjustment I just switched from a Jewell to the Geissele DMR. The DMR is flat out better and easier to adjust. The first stage came in at 2.75lbs with out bending the spring. I set the second stage to brake at 3.5 lbs. I have zero creep and a little over-travel dialed in. The...

    Re: Which Geissele for AR15? I have the DMR in my LR-260. Love it. And yes, it's worth the 270 bones I paid for it!
