    Who ships Manticore Raptor Charging H. to Europe?

    Re: Who ships Manticore Raptor Charging H. to Europe? I've ordered quite many gun-related parts from the US in the last years. Colt 1911 Tuning Parts, Rails, Mounts and many more... It's important that the value of the items per package doesn't exceed an amount of USD 100.- I suppose, many...

    Who ships Manticore Raptor Charging H. to Europe?

    First of all sorry for posting my question here, but I'm not eligible to start a thread in the WTB-section. I'm looking for a Raptor Charging Handle for my Steyr AUG, but Ratworx told me, the wouldn't ship abroad any more and Manticore hasn't answered my mails at all. The next problem is, that...

    Gunsmithing B&C "Medalist Light Tactical" - Photo Update

    Re: Finally my setup is complete! This is my Howa 1500 (.243), with the B&C stock, Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50, Legacy Magazine Kit and Harris Bipod. I also reloaded a bunch of rounds, and this is the most promising group (109 yds). The sqares are 1cm x 1cm, the five shot group is 0.84...

    which OAL to start with?

    Re: which OAL to start with? ...sounds good, TJ. Although I use this rifle for hunting, I spend quite some time on the range with it. I'm kind of a freak when it comes to accuracy - tight groups boost my ego and give me confidence when taking shots on a living creature. Is there any...

    which OAL to start with?

    Re: which OAL to start with? ...since it is my hunting weapon, the magazine is an essential part. The bullet (ogive) contacts the lands at 2.311 (with max OAL 2.933), Ogive at magazine-length is 2.278 and with SAAMI the value is 2.192. Thus the jump would be 0.119 (from SAAMI-value to...

    which OAL to start with?

    Hi there, In a few days I'll start reloading for my Browning X-Bolt (.308 Win). The most important question right now is, with which OAL I should start with. The Nosler Reloading Manual states an OAL of 2.810 for the 165gr Accubond, but my headspace-measurements result in 2.933 (although the...

    Re: B&C "Medalist Light Tactical" - any good? ...thanks again for the answers - especially to BiggerStick & LoneWolf for the excellent pictures. I made my decision and ordered a "Medalist Vertical Grip Varmint Stock" in OD with black spiderweb today from rifle-accuracy.com. I'm thinking...

    Gunsmithing B&C "Medalist Light Tactical" - Photo Update

    Re: B&C "Medalist Light Tactical" - any good? Thank's a lot for your answer... in this case, let's call the stock "Medalist Varmint/Tactical". (that's the reason why I added the picture - taken from seller's website). On the B&C site there's no talking about a chassis from the grip to the...

    Gunsmithing B&C "Medalist Light Tactical" - Photo Update

    Hi everybody! I'm planning to get a Bell & Carlson "Medalist Light Tactical" for my varmint-rifle. Since this is unfortunately an "on order only-item" i can't examine the stock at my local store, and the salesman hasn't handled one before - so even he is not able to tell me very much about this...
