    Over the Shoulder Recoil Pads

    Re: Over the Shoulder Recoil Pads Agree with the brake. You can get all sorts of brakes with different functions and features, plus it's one less piece of equip that you have to worry about placement or repeatability. It never moves. Most decent ones will cut recoil by 50% or more. I have...

    Aimpoint 3X VS Scope on AR platform

    Re: Aimpoint 3X VS Scope on AR platform M21, sounds like we are in the same boat. I want a more precise scope than my Aimpoint 2MOA, which leads me to a low power variable, but also have to be perimeter and sometimes entry so need something that will work for all. Again, I appreciate the...

    Cerakote

    Re: Cerakote I have painted both my AR and my sniper rifle. I did my 700 first with a tan base, then stretched an old laundry bag tight over it. I was absolutley tickled at the way it came out. Looked a lot like snake skin, but the variations of colors used made it nearly impossible to see...

    Karsten cheek rest

    Re: Karsten cheek rest Have 2 on our Dept and I installed both. Both are functional and work extremely well. I put a piece of semi-rigid foam under mine to garuntee it returns to where I wanted it after cleaning. IF you can seat the holes high enough on the stock where the stock starts to...

    Aimpoint 3X VS Scope on AR platform

    Re: Aimpoint 3X VS Scope on AR platform I do also have a 700 with great optics on it, however, we are multi use and don't generally deploy with both systems, so have to reach a good compromise with the AR platform. What i have now is an entry AR (personally owned). What I am looking to get...

    Aimpoint 3X VS Scope on AR platform

    Ok, I went back several pages and didn't find a thread, so hopefully this hasn't been covered recently. I currently have a 2MOA Aimpoint on my AR. As a Scout Sniper I am questioning weather or not I should move to a 1-4 or 2-5.5 or similar scope on my AR or get a 3X or similar magnifier. Both...

    Re: Rem 700 Triggers??? Poundage is not an issue as we are required to be at 3.5lbs. More wondering as to what would be an acceptable replacement trigger for a rifle that will be dragged through the mud. I thank all of you for your input. web

    Rem 700 Triggers???

    Re: Rem 700 Triggers??? we aren't being forced to change as of yet, however there is video, and reports are out there of the type of triggers we have firing on the release of the safety. Admin is contemplating it as a liability prevention measure. As a sniper and the user of this trigger, I...

    Rem 700 Triggers???

    Re: Rem 700 Triggers??? You are correct in that it will be used for field work. We currently have a policy in effect that limits poundage to no less than 3.5#. We are looking for triggers that require little to no regular maint. The rifles are currently required to come apart 2X a year for...

    Does anybody have any info on replacement trigger for a Rem 700 Sniper Rifle? We have 4 that have the original Rem Trigger and due to potential errant unintentional discharges Admin is contemplating replacing them. Our guys are split from Jewel/Timney. I have heard a few good things about...
