Have played around with upgrades on my handguns and built up ARs from scratch, but got the long range bug last year. Currently have a Bergara Premier Comp in 6gt and have got that dialed in. So brain is jumping to a new project.

Interested in a 6.5 PRC build I can hunt with (no real long shots for hunting) and take out to distance on the range. But definitely some new things I'm not familiar with. Looking for some help to ensure I understand exactly what I need.

Plan is to start with an Impact 737r SA. I've read some people lean towards a medium action for 6.5 PRC in case they have long COAL on heavier bullets, but read plenty get by with the short action. But wanted thoughts as I'm certainly fresh to this cartridge.

Was going to pair with a Proof Carbon sendero profit and an AG composite stock.

Where I get lost is bottom metals. Especially with the 6.5 PRC being a larger round for the short action I get lost in the details. Not sure what I need here or what my options are. Do want a detachable box magazine.

Just looking for insight if the action is a decent choice for the round and to fill in the gaps on bottom metal and magazine options.

Sold my edge and have no use for the rounds anymore so I pulled them.

I tried looking around but haven’t seen many reviews on the new defiance 75 degree bolts? Does anyone have any personal experience with them? Im considering an anti-x with one for a hunting rifle build.

Hey there,

So I have been loading 9mm for years using a loadmaster and lee dies and have made thousands of rounds that always came out great and looked great. This past year I have been using a dillon progressive and decided to buy the dillon 9mm dies for the heck of it. I was confused after my first few resizes after seeing a crazy hour glass shape on the case and an even worse bulge when seating the bullet. I know the bulge isn't really that uncommon with 9mm, especially being a tapered case, but the dillon dies made this shape very exaggerated.

Sooo my question is for those that use the dillon 9mm sizing die, do you just simply put up with the look? I have done some research to discover this is very common with the dillon 9mm sizing die but let's be honest we still care about looks as well as function or none of us would tumble our brass until it's shiny. I'm debating using my lee die or buying a new die altogether for the xl750 but I just wish the dillon die didn't make such an ugly weird shaped case. The die itself is very well made and has a larger opening to assist with progressive loading which sounds good on paper but I don't know if it's worth having butt ugly rounds that look defective (even though I know they are 100% perfectly fine if not better for some pistols.)

Opinions?

Looking for a set of Hawkins heavy tac rings or one piece mount in 34mm diameter . Lmk what you have. Thank you!

Insert ALL data as other loads.

I've always wondered why the '03 seems to have been so much more popular for use as a match rifle than the 1917(during their heyday: 1910's - 1950's or thereabouts when the Garands and M14's completely took over High Power - Service Rifle, and Model 70's/40X's/etc completely took over High Power - Match Rifle, 3x600, prone, long range prone, etc)?

Is the '03 simply a more inherently accurate rifle(IMO a valid question, because the '03 receiver was WIDELY used in the Mann Device for ammo accuracy testing and whatnot for like 100+ years)? Or was it a case of the '03 simply having sights more conducive to competition/precision in general/etc? Or...??

There were FAR more 1917's produced vs '03s during WW1(along with commercial variants eg: Remington Model 30 & Winchester Model 51 Imperial). And they consequently played a far bigger role in the US war effort than the '03 did, in the 1st world war...esp. if you count the P14.

I ain't aware of any commercial '03 variants(aside from the M1922 and the DCM Sporter if ya wanna count them?)?

TL;dr/summary: why no 1917 National Match Rifles? Why so few custom 1917 target rifles?
(Yes I'm aware of Comfort's winning the '35 Wimbledon Cup w/ a custom .300 H&H 1917 {{and @sirhrmechanic 's amazingly beautiful clone/recreation of said rifle, or was that you, @buffalowinter ?}}.

Regardless - my point/question still stands; the '03 dominated the Nat'l Matches up until the Garand NM and Don McCoy's match conditioned Garands were born.. and the 1917 was perceptively very rarely used in comparison. Why is that?

Thanks in advance gentlemen.
God bless & best regards!

I've always been mesmerized by metal being worked, whether as "simple" as cutting with Oxy/Fuel, all the way to TIG welding or being precision machined. Welding and blacksmithing have long been up there on shit I wanted to better understand, so I'm currently a little past halfway through a Maritime Welding course.

I know a bunch of y'all are talented manipulators of metals across a variety of trades and figured a place to post up projects, Q&A, etc may be cool. Hell, it may even serve as a heads-up for hiring opportunities around the country,

The thread in the Pit from Strykervet needing some welding brought this to light again recently, and I know that I'm learning more after class drinking with old welders and diagnosing my problems than I'm getting in the actual class.

I'll happily throw some "failure" pics up from class projects as a counterpoint for folks who look at beautiful welds and have no blessed idea how much skill is required to produce them.

Almost new condition. Asking $75 shipped.

Who made this?

I have a American rifle company xylo rem 700 chassis that I'd like to trade for a manners lrh or mdt crbn for a rem 700 footprint.

Hello purchased this as a back up and decided I don’t need it anymore.
Bought it here on the hide. Has DI Precision Windage turret, Ranger Wrap to keep it protected, and turret tape which can be easily removed.

$1900 $1675 shipped CONUS
PayPal F&F
Open to trade:
Swaro 15x SLc
Skypod Double pull+ Cash

For an extra $100 I’ll send it with the Area 419 match rings. The one piece mount I am keeping for my 3-18.

There is a small blem on the objective that was on there when I bought it. Red arrow points to what I’m talking about in the pic below. That tidbit wasn’t disclosed to me prior to purchase but I am making it known.
The blem is not visible when looking through the scope.

Looking to buy a cheap Tikka T3X with magnum bolt face. Turning into a budget 6.5 PRC build.

Multicam, size L (packaging is from a M I bought to use instead). I'm not usually a medium guy, turns out this is just barely too big for me. Ferro's sizing guide is spot on. As new, never even been outside. $185 shipped. Venmo, PPF&F, other methods may be arranged. Please PM any and all communication vs. posting here and opening yourself up to scammers.



For those not familiar, these have a carbon fiber core, so they are very stiff, but still very thin and light. It comes with a velcro loop inner belt that goes through your pants' belt loops, then the outer belt velcros on top. It's great to have your holster, mag pouches, and everything else set up on the outer belt and just slap it on. Here's how I have my other one set up:


Stuff I’m always looking for (whether you want my stuff or not):
APA Tru-Loc scope rings - 30mm .856"
Nightforce C550 ATACR 4-16x42 H59

S&B 4-16x50 cm ccw only, P4F or G2XR

Thanks for looking

Bought years ago for a build I never followed through on. I'm not sure who made the upper but it matches the handguard perfectly. Handguard has some magpul mlok covers on it. Neither piece has ever been assembled. The handguard does come with all the hardware, wrench, and barrel nut which I believe is the titanium version. The handguard was bought direct from MI. I don't believe they offer OD anymore.

$225 shipped.
I can only do a money order or zelle. Sorry, no venmo or paypal.
