    1 piece mounts for DT

    Need a 34mm mount for my DT SRS. I've been using an AADMount in 30mm for the last 4-ish years and have no complaints. Not against buying another one in 34mm either but I am curious what others have used. Prefer to keep it in the $300 or less ballpark.

    KRG W3 owners in GA

    Need some help narrowing down stock/chassis options. I've sat behind the other options but haven't been behind a w3. Anyone in the northern half of GA have one that I could get behind? Maybe hit the range? I know some folks are superstitious of their rifles so I don't have to shoot it. Just...

    Primer pocket uniforming depth

    I bought a Sinclair uniformer to use on my 308 brass. I had a lot of fgmm and win brass so I weight sorted and picked the best 50 of each. Did the brass prep thing. Sinclair says their cutter uses the shoulder as a stop so I cut till that sob quit. Well I seat some fed 210m and I'm looking a...

    OCW interpretation

    i have been trying to force a load with CFE for a while first using 178 AMAX and now 175 SMKs. i see nothing here but perhaps a more trained eye can spot something. all were fired round robin style with 10 min cool downs inbetween shots except the 3rd shots (and 4th in some cases) which had to...

    Gunsmithing Cerakote Q's

    Want to get my remmy done. On the website they show companies that do it and then companies that are 'certified'. Should I put any stock in the factory certification? secondly, when stocks (and polymer frames for pistols) are done, this is the air cure formula correct? lastly, who does good...

    badger/talley compatability

    So I mounted my talley tactical rings on my badger base and noticed that the dual recoil lugs on the rings have almost 0 contact surface with the cross slots. Has anyone used this combo with no ill effects or should I look at a different base or rings? Any recommendations for a base that doesn't...

    Gunsmithing scope base bedding

    I'm sure the topic has been beat to death but I have a specific question about my setup. I've placed my 20moa badger rail on my aac-sd. Torqued the front and there is almost zero play. I might be able to stick a .001 feeler into the gap. torque the back and its the same story on the front. Very...
