    Question about Manners stocks with the MCS

    I'll get straight to my questions here... 1. If I pick up a Remington 700 AAC-SD in .308 - Can I simply drop the action into a Manners stock that is fitted with the MCS? Is that how it works? All you do is drop the action right into the stock and that's the end of it? Or is there some...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone have experience with the new Burris FFP 3-15x50 XTR II?

    Unless I'm missing something, this seems like a pretty solid deal - then again, I've don't know Burris quality or their reputation, so I'm only assuming it is and that's why I'm asking here. I'm more curious about the glass quality to be honest - seems like it has all the other features...

    Can anyone tell me what these binoculars are worth in today's market?

    My elementary school teacher gave me these binoculars back in 1996 (really nice guy). He said he was upgrading and didn't need these anymore and knew that I was really into technology. Anyway, I'm just trying to figure out how much these would be worth in today's market? (see images) The...

    Winchester Stealth 308 vs FN SPR A1

    Aside from the fact that the Winchester has a 26" barrel and a different stock, are there any other differences between these two rifles? Are the barrel contours/profiles the same on both the SPR and the Stealth?

    Why doesn't Remington offer a 700 with a 24" M24/M40 Profile Barrel?

    Since people seem to lust after the M24/M40, why doesn't Remington offer a 700 with the same heavy barrel contour and correct length? Would it not sell?

    Remington 700 SPS Varmint .308 in McMillan stock - Poor man's M40 clone?

    I'd love to get a GAP M40 clone, but it's just way out of my price range. My question is, if I buy a Remington SPS Varmint in .308, have the barrel cut to 24", and throw it in a McMillan precision stock like an A5, appearance wise, do I have an accurate M40 clone?

    Springfield M1A and the A.R.M.S. #18 Mount

    I'm in the market for a quality (and reliable) scope mount for my brand new M1A and have narrowed it down to the ARMS 18 mount. However, all I keep hearing about is that the ARMS 18 mount is basically hit or miss with the M1A. So, couple of questions... 1. What are the odds that my new...

    My first precision rifle

    I'm getting married this summer and my birthday is coming up soon, so I decided to splurge on something I've been interested in getting into for quite some time now - a precision rifle setup. I wanted something that would be of decent quality and last quite a long time as I probably won't be...

    Any ideas on how to fix this? So, I was trying to disassemble my Winchester Model 70 bolt - I pushed down on the retaining pin to spin the rear of the bolt around to start unscrewing it, but instead it got stuck - it won't budge because it's now jammed in this groove...See below: ETA...

    JAE-700 stock - where to find?

    So, as mentioned previously, I picked up a Remington 700 SPS tactical with threaded barrel and 1/10 twist. I think I've settled on a replacement stock - the JAE-700. My question is, where are they sold? Any particular place online? Or should I just order directly through JEA?
