    cerakote shop??

    KG Gunkote is nothing like Duracoat. Gunkote used to be a well known name, then I don’t believe stayed up in the marketing race. Durability equal or better than Cerakote, better lubricity, easier to apply in thinner coats, no hardener mixing, heat and air cure products, and less waste (cleanup...

    "best" small frame AR 6mm cartridge?

    Not sure how either of the Noslers (22 or 24) would be considered 6.8SPC Wildcats though, their rebated rim makes the entire base and web of the case completely different than the 6.8 case. ....but I admit I know nothing of the SPC, never did anything for me and seemed to be a bandaid in its...

    "best" small frame AR 6mm cartridge?

    From his relations w/Nosler he had the 22Nosler in hand for a while pre-release and was playing with necking them up. Going down with the Grendel’s neck was way before.

    "best" small frame AR 6mm cartridge?

    Yeah, I was having significant brain farting going on and realized I was all jacked as soon as I hit “post”. Getting old and long days suck.

    "best" small frame AR 6mm cartridge?

    But the motivation was predator hunting.for the OP’s stated purposes, I choose the 65Grendel. Better wind at 700+ and still drops coyotes in their tracks.

    "best" small frame AR 6mm cartridge?

    Super6 SD. Scott at Specialized Dynamics was necking up 22Noslers to 6mm for a while. After working w/Nosler, Nosler dropped it on the market in a 24Nosler version. Rebated rim keeps more meat on bolt, like the 22Nosler. Both have theoretical advantages to being able to withstand pressure better...

    Where to start on large frame build

    Two things make an AR accurate: barrel and trigger. Two things make large frames run well with a variety of ammo: high pressure bolts and correct gas (different calibers and different length gas systems, and different dwell times will all need different gas). Good AR builders know what to use...

    BOYDS STOCK ON MY SAVAGE PROJECT DOESNT FIT.-MODIFY????

    I run emery cloth “shoeshine” style (smooth side to barrel of course) while straddling from above with the barreled action sitting in stock. Headless action screws (like used for bedding) and a bridge/nut to keep tension while shaping. Works for me, and winds up better centered than when I’ve...

    KRG Bravo Chassis

    I think inletting for Savage Axis and Ruger Americans would pay off, seeing as the Bravo is a “budget” option to the more spendy offerings-it would fit well with the “budget” rifles currently on the market. I know I’d get one for my budget Axis hunter in a heartbeat-and is a better platform for...

    6.5 Grendel more or less dead?

    Far from dead. It’s my favorite predator and medium game caliber in a small frame AR, and that won’t change with the Internet winds...

    Face palm moment for Dick’s sporting goods

    Dicks can eat a bag of dicks. They’ve been on my “not a mfkin dime no matter how good a deal they offer” lost for a long time.

    cerakote shop??

    As a guy that’s applied and beat on finishes in the field, I’d offer this: Do yourselves a favor and look into KG’s products. Cerakote is what comes to everubody’s mind these days, but is not the best product, neither in application nor durability. Their Nano series is what the USMC recently...

    Rifle Scopes Should I sell my scope?

    SK rifle match bc?

    I stand corrected. My apologies, been out of the 22game for a while (aside from squirreling with my glenfield 60 :ROFLMAO:).

    SK rifle match bc?

    SK Match=Lapua Club=Wolf ME. Same lines, same machines, different boxes. I’ve got the email from Lapua on an old desktop somewhere. .120 worked for my 1712 to 100m at 2500DA to 100m and close enough to get real dope for me out further.

    PRS Talk 6.5 creedmoor bullet weight for prs.

    Elevation is science, wind is voodoo. Higher BC of heavier bullets puts the wind advantage where you need it. The elevation gain at mid-range is a losing trade off to more forgiveness on wind calls in my book. 10-20gr lighter at a higher speed=a wash in felt recoil.
