    Nucleus Orders

    I’m getting occasional hang ups if I work the action slowly, this video does a good job showing a misfeed, and a nice quick cycling afterwards. -Kirby

    I had to trim the MDT mag’s feedlips to get them to cycle 223 reliably. The mag was holding onto the rounds for too long and causing hangups. I don’t think I’m getting complete CRF but it works great in all orientations when you cycle it fast. -Kirby

    Sako TRG22 weight reduction

    A carbon fiber barrel and lighter weight scope is all I can think of for a standard TRG. That being said it should get you into a weight that should be fine for offhand and positional slung shooting. Guys are out there shooting 18 pound AR’s in NRA/CMP service rifle.

    Different rings designs will have different torque specs. Just because different rings have different torque specs doesn’t necessarily mean they’d impacting the scope with more or less force.

    AICS 2.0 Skins Comparison

    I have an AICS 2.0 chassis that came with a set of victor company Viperskins. I’m thinking that I might prefer something like an MPA chassis, or a Manner’s T2A or T4A. I usually float my thumb with a traditional stock. How are the oem skins in comparison? I’ve been told the updated thumbhole...

    GAP Rilfles @ Cabelas

    I appreciate craftsmanship, and there will always be a place in the market for smith’s like GAP. I wonder though if all the new semi-custom DIY rigs are going to put a hurting on the traditional smithing business. Probably not as their wait times I’m sure are still lengthy.

    GAP Rilfles @ Cabelas

    I played with one at the cabelas in Gainesville VA a few months ago, it was a nice gun. A big price tag though.

    The only thing I’m curious about is that if the recoil lug is under tension as soon as you unscrew the barrel it might want to shift. I’m not sure if that would happen, or if it would be an issue at all.

    I thought that was going to be the case, but I can have my bolt in battery, turn the bolt stop the the rear, and take my bolt out.

    Brownells a1 lower, I'd hole in back

    The 601 model had a roll pin through the bottom of the receiver extension (buffer tube). The reproductions have the roll pin and space for aesthetics , but are located slightly lower to not intersect the the buffer.

    If you ordered a barloc or anything extra with your preorder you get charged some shipping at the time of preorder. Then they charge you the difference of $35 when it ships. Thats how it worked for me having my action and barloc to WV.

    Rifle Scopes Schmidt and Bender retailers

    Is it just me or have several large retailers stopped selling Schmidt and Bender? I didn’t see any on Mike High’s website (a ton of nightforces though), and none on eurooptic either.

    Using expander mandrel for dented case mouths

    Are you using a bushing die? A regular FL die without an expander would give you tons of neck tension.
