    Anyone Make An Extended Lever (not knob) For The Atlas Bipods?

    IF I'm understanding what you're saying, you know you can reposition the handle to give it more degree of travel. My experience with the Atlas bipod is, you can tighten it as much as you want and it will never lock out. So over tightening does no good. There will always be some play in it.

    A&D Fx120i Scale

    I use a RCBS MatchMaster and have been happy with it. I have read a lot about the A&D Fx-120I scale and wondered how my MatchMaster would compare. So I decided to order one and see for myself.

    Which thing made the biggest difference?

    For me after getting more experience the improvements become smaller(and more expensive) in nature. It can be different things for different cartridges. For my 300 WM just switching to Lapua brass made a noticeable difference. Sometimes It is a surprise. Imperial Sizing Wax made an instant...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    Rifle Scopes Found deal on Night Force ATACR, have questions

    C445 is the older discontinued model. Now they have the C553, 554 and 555. Not sure what the differences are but at $1600 it may not be a good value.

    Lock rings for SAC Nexus press

    Not sure what the problem could be. I would assume all the SAC rings would be all the same. The ones I have work perfect. The orientation of the tension screw makes adjusting the die extremely easy. Maybe call SAC and see what they have to say about it.

    Lock rings for SAC Nexus press

    Redding makes some steel ones that work nice. Just make sure the tension screw is accessible, it will rub the press if you try to turn it while installed. I like the SAC ones also, adjusting the die is easier.

    I have 1000 dollars (What should I buy )

    $1000? For that amount, skip getting a piece of shit rifle and just rent some nice ass for an hour or so.....It will leave you with better memories.

    .300 win mag 26" barrel hornady 208g

    Just be cool about it, when you are at the range tell everyone around you what you're about to do. They can record it from a distance.

    Tikka action vs. Zematt Origin action

    You already have a 6.5 PRC in a TL3. You want to build a 300 WSM. Dimensionally both cartridges are very similar. You already know what your parameters are. What do you think the pros and cons are?

    We found out you are stressed at work....so you won't be stressed you're fired.

    There are a lot factors in this scenario, heres another one. In 1946 the US population was less than half of what it is today. There are a lot of useless people in the country now.

    Since the Nomad has the HUB end, maybe try and find a HUB adaptor with that thread pattern and use it direct thread?
