US Armorment .308 bore guide </div></div> Sinclair International has been making that style for a while now and I have one of each to fit every one of my rifles.
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: TF160 Guy</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Possum Hollow Bore Guide. I use this for all my weapons. Good fit, seals tight at chamber. Good product. </div></div>
I have several of these and they are a great product. Great people to deal with.
I would recommend, first and foremost, Lucas. But since he is not taking orders right now I would go with one from Sinclair. I have some and they work just fine. BTW, anyone know why Mike isn't taking on business right now?
as stated, get a Lucas ALONG WITH THE ROD INSERT FOR YOUR PARTICULAR ROD(which is what sets his guide apart, and makes it superior to any other)
and mike does bore guides in runs i believe, so you send in a payment and he'll put you on the next run of guides he does and ship out when they finish.
What rifle you buying it for and what ones you have already? I use my Rem .308 Lucas in three different rifles. My Rem 700 .308, a GAP7000 .243 and a GAP Templar 6.5 Creedmoor.
The Lucas guide inserts are what he sets up for your rod diameter. The Sinclair guides have no inserts and are not as rod specific. You won't go wrong with the Sinclair guide, at least until you can get another Lucas.
Would love to have a Lucas guide. When I emailed him a couple of days ago I was told that he is not taking any new orders until possibly May 15th. Hope to get one then.
Well I'm gona try the koolaid. I made an email order for a Lucas bore guide last night and mailed the check today. Mike quoted the guide will be mailed the week of 5/2.
I just recieved a sinclair bore guide for the 223. it fits the action really nice and slides in the chamber nice and tight! the dewey rod seems to be not as tight of a fit as the lucas is but not by much, im going to mike it up at work to see what the diff. is. I would have prefered the lucas but i think this sinclair will do just fine.
