    Stiller Action in a AICS stock

    I'm trying to find out what to order to fit. I know that its the TAC 30, but does it matter if its a BDL or DBM? I don't see that specified at the Stiller site? Cheers Darrin

    Gunsmithing Rem 700tws action

    My Rem 700tws twists when I tighten the action into the bedding. The barrel moves to the left in the free float portion of the stock and does not lay in the middle. I was curious if anyone knew the reason for this, and if it might have an affect on accuracy. The rifle shoots sub moa but I've...

    long action what to do?

    I would like to take a mid to long range class in next year and was think about Thunder Ranch because it is close and sounded good. They say no magnum calibers so the 300win. is out and I don't have anything else but a Remington 700 ADL in 270 should I sell it and get a 308 or get the 270...

    22lr action for Remington 700 AICS stock

    Are there any companies making a 22LR action that will fit a Remington 700 format other than a Remington 40X. I have a short action AICS chassis and would like to build a trainer rifle. Stillers 25 X to be released soon.

    Question About GAP Templar Action???

    Gents- Have a new GAP coming my way very shortly with a Templar action. Wondering if that Templar action will accept a rail extension. The rail extension simply goes over the standard moa base on an M24 and extends the rail over the sides and down the barrel allowing the use of items such as a...

    Pic request: FDE barreled action in black stock

    Thinking about taking the krylon to my SPS Tactical but I don't really want to paint the hogue rubber stock (doubt the paint would stick well to rubber). Was wondering if anyone out there has a FDE/sand colored barrel/action sitting in a black stock? Would love to see a pic of that combo...

    Gunsmithing Barrel to Action Threading Question

    I just read the Vaughn book about his accuracy experiments where he identified barrel/action thread movement as a source of inaccuracy and the proposed a different type of threading to improve the lockup and make more threads actually engage and provide support. Are there any practical...

    Gunsmithing How to tell if my action needs bedding?

    I searched and didnt come up with anything useful. I just got a B&C stock, and to see how much contact I had with the forward bedding area, I put a little grease on the bedding block. Screwed on the action and then took it back off. It looks like I am only getting contact with the bedding...

    Rifle Scopes Scope rails for bolt action .308s

    Hello all, I apologize if this was asked already... Pretty sure it has but can't find it using search function. For a .308 bolt gun, is there a need for steel scope rails or is 7075 aluminum rails sufficient enough strength wise for a range/bench gun? Thanks.

    Gunsmithing Remington 700 Action Difference

    Is there a slight difference in the Remington 700 rifle actions prior to B prefix. I was going to get a Badger Ordinance mount and rings (USMC M40 copy) but it stated not to use with A prefix or older rifles. Since my rifle is five digit, I didn't think it would work, I have several older...

    First Custom Action - Phoenix Machine

    It's amazing how long it seems when you're waiting for something new, and this has been no exception. Now that it's here it's waiting to be completed which will unfortunately have to be piecemeal, but it's a start! Ultimately it's going to be a .308, with a Bartlein barrel, in either a manners...

    Which FN action is more preferred?

    Between the FN "PBR" and the "SPR", which action is preferred? Both are based on the Mauser action but is there a difference in these versions? Are the triggers better on one or the other or the same? Thanks guys...SmokeRolls

    GAP 7000 Action

    I've got a Crusader clone built on a GAP 7000 action. Does the 7000 have the same footprint as a Rem 700 ? My rifle is in a M40A1 stock and I'm looking to trade for or purchase an A5 , thus my question. Thanks guys, Ken
