    McMillan stock - brittle gelcoat layer?

    I finally got around to glass bedding my A5 a couple weeks ago. When I tapped the action to get the bedding to release, I must have knocked on the side of the stock a little. To my surprise, this took out a fairly sizable chunk of the stock. It appears this area of the stock was hollow and...

    Almost there....

    All the parts for my Savage build are in! Unfortunately, my barrel will probably go back for a throat extension (yes, I did send a dummy cartridge). A full specs, a range report, and better pictures will posted once that's finished. In the mean time, here's a picture!

    Rifle Scopes How much do YOU spend on your optics?

    Everyone always says to spend as much on optics as the rifle, but I've found that for most people, this isn't true. On average, how much do you guys tend to spend on your scopes? Pick two, one for rimfire rifles, and another for centerfire rifles. Thanks guys.

    Almost ready to start my Stevens 200 build!

    I've been bouncing around the idea of building a bolt gun for a while now. I decided to do a 6XC build centered around a Savage/Stevens action, for the sake of saving time and money on gunsmithing work. This started out as a budget build, but after some gradual price creep ("Well ____ is only...

    The M1 Garand Salvage Project

    Here's the backstory: My uncle recently lost his home to a forest fire here in Utah. Practically nothing was salvagable and his safes were all that were left. For discretion's sake, I'll simply say I "inherited" the remains of several once-fine rifles. Among them were two M1 Garands, a...

    How bad is an off-centered throat?

    I just bought my first match grade barrel. Of course, the first thing I did when I got it was to look how purdy the hand lapped rifling was. Then I noticed that the throat looked a bit crooked. On one side, it shows a ridge in front of the rifling. Directly opposite shows a smooth transition...

    What would you change with this setup?

    I am brand new to handloading, so any and all advice is greatly appreciated. I'm mostly going to be loading for a 16" 1/8 .223 AR, but I will be loading for a .308 bolt gun in the (relatively) near future. Accuracy and cost-savings are my main reasons for handloading. I don't have a hard...

    Atlas Bipod - shouldn't it flex?

    I'm not sure what the best way to word this is, but here goes.... I just bought an Atlas V8.1 from Triad Tactical (thanks for the quick shipping!). However, I was under the impression that the legs had some amount of flex to them to help when loading. Mine has a small amount of play (wiggle)...
