Re: CZ 452 Varment or Ruger M77-22? jugo, You didn't mention price range. Are you gonna modify your 5r? McMillan stock? If so, you have an option you didn't mention. A sako quad can be setup in a McMillan stock any A series stock will work. depends on what the price range is and what you...

Re: 168gr vs. 175 gr for Police Sniper Application Buggsb, If you are currently using 168 grain. You may wanna check out the 165 grain trophy bonded bullets. I know one agency in California that uses them for barrier penetration. You will need to log the poa/poi difference. Just my .02 SOTA

Re: Looking at a 1-piece scope base. CK, If i may suggest it. Look at Seekins Precision. Good stuff there. plus Glen is here under the name "HeatSeekins" i believe. I talked to him when i was looking at rings and bases. He was very helpful knew exactly what i needed. I ordered it and had it...

Re: What to think of a 223 in a 20" 1:9 Twist Guys, I have a 20" rock 1/9 that shoots the 75grn well. Took it out to 650 yds with texgal. She gave it the nick name "bb gun". My barrel didn't seem to like the 77grn to much. Tried it one range trip. Maybe retry later to check them out...

Re: Need advice on ne build. Smokey, I know little about barrels but i will try. For a 308 barrel i would look at a .298 bore"aka tight bore". The palma chamber i think is cut for a 155 grain bullet. May have to use a different reamer for the different bullets out there. SOTA

Re: Handgunn-Pistol-Questions Hog, Looking at the specs you want i would look at HK or glock. Now as for those 2 i like the external safety of the HK. Before anyone jumps my butt i own 4 glocks. I would rethink the comp barrel and the adjustable sights. In a defense situation you gonna be...

Re: .223 Bolt Gun Build Splean, I am running a 20" 1/9 Rock barrel. That handles the 69 and 75's VERY well. First time out took it to 650 yards first round hit. Zero'd it at 100, took it to 200 then right out to 600. I'm glad they have ballistic programs. Oh by the way, Texgal was...

Re: Can a scope be cerakoated ....? WCW, I would talk to a smith before doing it. I had Randy coat a scope for my build. To be honest i dunno what he coated it with but it looks great. If you wanna talk to Randy he can be reached here under the name Hateca or the website is R D Precision...

Re: any experience with er shaw barrels? nmntz, The 1/8 or 1/7 will handles the heavy bullets well. I have a 1/9 it works well with the 75's. The 1/14, 1/12 is more for light varmint type bullets. I dunno about E.R. Shaw barrels so can't offer anything on them. Sorry. SOTA

Re: Spec'ing out first build. Right track or no? Pat, Going to a 10x on moving targets can be very difficult depending on the range. If it were my money i would get a variable power scope. As for triggers i have a shilen on mine like it alot. it does have a narrow shoe though. might take...
