Re: Disadvantages to Fixed Parallax.. Here's a tutorial for ya. It was written specifically about Leupold scope adjustments but it will answer your question thoroughly. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=31512

Re: Youngs bolt & carrier with Vltor upper Sounds like it's short-stroking. Your Youngs bolt carrier isn't one of those lightweight versions, is it?

Re: Leupold Experts I'm certainly no Leupold expert, but an old Leupold catalog that I found laying around says that the LPS 3.5-14x50 scope has a 60 MOA adjustment range for both E & W. hth

Re: Question about Jewell triggers in AICS I had to modify my AICS 1.5 LA to accept a Jewell trigger, but that was over two years ago. I understand that AI has since changed the safety mortise on the AICS to accept the Jewell trigger, so I guess the answer is yes and no depending on how old...

Re: New ar15 short stroking Make absolutely sure that your gas tube is properly aligned so that the gas key on the bolt carrier is not dragging on it. Also, some shooters lube the buffer spring in an attempt to quiet the "sproing" noise. Too much grease on this spring will also cause...

Re: Thougths on LRB M25 reciver If a guy is going to build a scoped M14-style rifle from scratch the LRB M25 is really the only way to go. It does away with all of the previous scope mounting problems that were pretty much inherent in the standard receiver no matter who built it. If you're...

Re: Ring Height Questions Great info here. Thanks especially to Glen. These are excellent guidelines for use with the more or less "conventional" style of gunstocks, however more and more shooters are using either AR-style platforms and/or Accuracy International rifles or the AICS chassis...

Re: AICS recoil lug slot; why can't I go deeper? If you're gonna have the lug mortise milled in an AICS follow the advice given by Accuracy International. But one question comes to mind. If you're using a Stiller TAC action why are you going to an oversize recoil lug anyway? The recoil lug...

Re: A-3 opinions My 6.5x47 build is on an A3. I really like the stock, but it has its limitations for some types of hunting. You certainly can find a lighter and more compact stock for a hunting rifle if you're planning on humping it for long distances or in the mountains, but otherwise...

Re: New Douglas XX Barrel - break in/lapping Don't attempt to lap it. Just shoot it, unless you're gonna get anal about it - in that case shoot and clean (after each shot) for about ten rounds, then after every two shots for ten rounds, then after every five shots for ten rounds, then once...
