    Used 300 PRC/Defiance/Manners $5,300

    I built this for myself, developed a great load with 215 Bergers at 2,950 fps then put it in the safe. It has less than 100 rounds through it and is like new. The stock was ordered with a larger barrel channel to accommodate up to an M40 #14 barrel. It weighs 9 lbs. 7 oz. Defiance Tenacity...

    Used MRAD $4,900

    This is a personal rifle that I built in 300 Norma with a 9 twist Bartlein Heavy Varmint barrel at 30”. It will ship with another identical barrel that I will chamber for the the buyer at the time of sale for no additional cost. The current barrel has about 700 rounds through it shooting Berger...

    Bartlein Carbon MRAD prefits

    We ordered a small batch of carbon wrapped blanks from Bartlein awhile back and they'll be finished in November. They're all 30 caliber, 1.250" straight with no taper and 6" of steel at the breech end and a mix of 24" and 26" lengths. We still have both A and B extension kits available so we can...

    We have some barrel makers kits here in two sizes: A for Lapua and Norma cartridges and B for 300 WM and PRC. As of now these will only be available with the purchase of a barrel job labor. We’re not stocking barrel blanks but we’ll be happy to source them or use customer supplied blanks...

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    I have over 200 reamers right now and I don't have a listing of them. If you need it I probably have it. If not I'll order one and if it's a very unusual cartridge that I'll likely never use again I'll charge a 50% tooling fee. Can't remember the last time I actually had to do that though. Most...

    Spartan Precision update as of 9/4

    Our new shop location in Idaho is running smoother than ever before and I have the best team I've ever had working with me. We're now down to less than two weeks for barrel machine work and epoxy bedding. Machine work pricing is still what it's been for about 7 years which is $350 for a complete...

    We’re cutting barrels for these on our CNC for $550. That includes all machining labor on your customer supplied parts. All of the threading and chamber work at each end of the barrel plus flat spots on the extension and lock ring for a 1-3/8” wrench. Pictured is the first one I did on my manual...

    Optics Optic Sale - Free shipping

    I'm getting phone calls and emails from people who are confused about this company thinking it's me. The name is almost the same and apparently someone there is also named Marc. Just FYI we have no affiliation with this company.

    Bartlein blanks ready to cut

    All of the common receivers coming out that are consistent enough to do it. Impact, Defiance Ruckus and Tenacity, Bighorn etc. They're all getting on board with this now. If I haven't cut one for the particular receiver you have then I'd need to have it here the first time. I'll save it's...

    Gunsmithing KMW Loggerhead Adjustable Cheek Piece Hardware

    Chad, this is why so many of us from the industry side of the community have lost respect for you over time. None of us care how many ounces your product weighs. Most of us don't really care that you were obviously exhaggerating it's weight either. That's not the point. Bursting in on this...

    Spartan Precision lead times & parts

    We've been putting in long hours and 6 day weeks for a long time so we've caught up on our back log. Buying a CNC lathe and hiring highly qualified help didn't hurt any either :) We can now get barrel machine work turned around in a week or two at the most. Cerakote and pillar bedding jobs can...

    Spartan Precision DBM’s

    We have a new DBM we call the Bottom Dweller. It has an oversized mag box that comes down out of the stock just short of a 5 round AICS magazine. We put a beveled opening on it similar to an AR-10 and a large, one piece release tab that sweeps back close to the trigger finger. It’s cut in an M5...
