Sounds like another good one, time to freeze my ass off and recheck some dope. I should be there.

That is about my dream hunting rig. We only have deer to shoot here in the Midwest, but if was hunting Elk or other large game that is exactly what I would use. Awesome accuracy, and looks beautiful.

Thanks for doing this ILya. The article was a great read and shines some light on the finer points of the extremely expensive, and hard to get to test, tactical scope market.

I will second this one. If your going with a Remington action, this is how you do it. The same action is in the $300 pawn shop special as the 5R. After you get your pawn shop special, have it trued and your barrel chambered ($360), a Bartlein barrel ($315), an old style 700 trigger off the...

I have read about it a few times on here. Cannot remember any pictures of it, nor do I have any first hand experience modifying feed lips on AI mags, all my rounds fit. I would assume that you would just bend them in until it holds rounds reliably. Hopefully someone with more experience doing...

I do know that there will be problems without modifying the feed lips on the AI mag. There are a couple threads out there on it.

I am in for two, wish I had the funds for more. Hope everything gets better for you ScottyD.

Premier or S&B 3-15/4-16 would be my choice. Prefer the Premier turrets and illumination design, but the PMII is at the top of the list too. Glass is flawless, great CS with Paul or Jerry, tracking is perfect, and there is nothing better than those two for a tac rig. That's if money is no...

I will be making the trip down. Would like muzzle brakes as well, but the thread protector will be making an appearance on this one.

Always wear my safety glasses. Eyes are too valuable to chance it, and if it's predictable it's preventable. Eventually, if you shoot enough, you will have a failure of ammunition or firearm. You want your eyes protected when that happens. ESS Crossbow for me, and don't notice any worse optical...

This. Both have been excellent for me also, and you might have better luck expanding the search to include these barrels as well.

Ya Trevor, I hear you on that. Be tasteful, respectful, and courteous. I am not making anyone uncomfortable, and would call someone a creep if they were. The earphones save me a lot of headache. There are bigger guys out there, but I do some powerlifting, and don't want distractions. I am there...

Trevor, I agree with most of your post. I have found headphones to deter most talkers, but some still persist. They want to know what you did to lift that much, or what supplements your taking, or what's in my shaker. That irritates me to no end. Time, nutrition and water. But a little...

I will second the hot chick comment. Wearing skin tight yoga pants or tiny spandex shorts and a sports bra to work out in is going to get you stared at. Don't get pissy when you catch me looking.

You can find all the options here. Cerakote Coatings

Nice rifle, nice reloading room, and burnt bronze would be my color choice for that rig.

Very happy with my digital Starrett 798B.

I don't think the Creed or the .260 are barrel burners. But barrel life is very subjective. It depends on how you load and shoot. He can get good barrel life using either 6.5mm. Also, the advantage of the 6.5 calibers is wind drift, not necessarily drop or flatter trajectory. I see the advantage...

I would think that calling Mark @ SAC would get you the best answer. I do not possess the knowledge to answer, but would like to know as well. My Alpha 11 could use a magnum bolt face bolt and a 7 SAUM barrel...

Well, I like both rounds myself. Ballistically I ran the JBM numbers and they are pretty close. .284 running 2850fps with 180 hybrid gets you 312in drop and 54in drift (10mph cross wind) @1000. 6.5-284 running 3000fps with 140 hybrid gets you 289in drop and 55.5in drift at the same variables. I...
