    the Ultimate .308 long range bullet

    Re: the Ultimate .308 long range bullet Have you ever heard of a properly built rifle from the factory ever blowing up from a round that was too hot? I never have. Ive always wondered if youre rifle exploding from a hot load is even possible then why are all military 5.56 loads loaded so hot...

    Is there bigger badder than 338 Lapua?

    Re: Is there bigger badder than 338 Lapua? If you are wanting to stay in the 338 caliber then pretty much every other 338 will be faster than the lapua besides the 338 win mag and 338 federal. The 338 Edge is just a 300 ultra mag necked up to 338. The 338 Ultra Mag is even a tad faster than...

    US Palm Tac Rifle...anyone have an opinion?

    Re: US Palm Tac Rifle...anyone have an opinion? Ill never say its a palm. Its a Fn SPR. Nowhere on this rifle does it say us palm anything. Just because Scottsdale Gun club did the bedding doesnt make it a us palm made rifle. What would be the difference if you bought a barreled SPR action...

    300 win mag vs 6.5x284

    Re: 300 win mag vs 6.5x284 Considering what you said youll use it for, Id opt for like a previous poster said and go with the 6.5x55 or the 260. Both are very capable of 1000 yard targets..and lets be honest here, white tail deer are about the easiest game to kill. Hell, I could hide behind a...

    US Palm Tac Rifle...anyone have an opinion?

    Re: US Palm Tac Rifle...anyone have an opinion? The action is bedded but it doesnt look all that great but its bedded where it needs to be. it for sure does not look all pretty like a perfect bed job. I have a Winchester extreme sporter that is bedded from the factory and it looks a little...

    US Palm Tac Rifle...anyone have an opinion?

    Re: US Palm Tac Rifle...anyone have an opinion? I saw this thread and thought I should revive it because I just bought this "us palm" rifle from SGC. This is a FN SPR A1 through and through but put together by the smith at SCG. I dont know about the unknown barrels in the earlier posts but...

    There is a local shop here selling a new 5r 308 for over $1200!? I thought these were around $800 or so new..is this 1200 dollar price right? Or is the Obama scare creating price gouging?

    FNH TSR, Savage PC, Tikka Scout

    Re: FNH TSR, Savage PC, Tikka Scout Im actually thinking more and more on the rem700 M40A1 clone-ish. I just wish the stock wasnt painted over. If I can remove the paint to expose the nice Mcmillan camo finish underneath (if thats whats under it) then Ill be happy. The barrel looks just like...

    Need Suggestions on 20" 5.56 Barrel

    Re: Need Suggestions on 20" 5.56 Barrel for $399 you can get a 20" BCM upper minus bcg and hand guards. I have the 20" BCM and love it, but everything mentioned above is good. I dont think you are going to find a garbage barrel from any known maker
