    Suppressors ***NEW*** Dead Air Nomad-LT vs. Sandman-S on 14.5" 5.56 NATO.

    BTW, you're obviously a Dead Air fan. You KNOW you want to try the gimmicks.... ;)

    Suppressors ***NEW*** Dead Air Nomad-LT vs. Sandman-S on 14.5" 5.56 NATO.

    Fair enough. I was thinking of getting the wipe cap and using that with some subsonic coated or plated 30 cal bullets. I bought a piece of crap 308 can 23 years ago that is so hearing un-safe it's not even funny. It left such a sour taste in my mouth that I'm just NOW getting a new 308 can...

    Suppressors ***NEW*** Dead Air Nomad-LT vs. Sandman-S on 14.5" 5.56 NATO.

    Fuhq, congrats on the new Sandman! Hey, have you ever tried the E-Brake or the wiped endcap for your Nomad LT? I'm curious if either of those are really effective in lowering the sound signature even more...

    What to use for reshaping Choate stock?

    I have a Choate tactical stock for my Rem 700. It works well, but I'd like to thin out the pistol grip a little. It is THICK.

    Rifle Scopes Anyone ever tried a Burris Eliminator in a long range tactical match?

    I've never owned or used one, but it would seem like it could really be useful in a 'long range precision'-type match if it works as advertised.

    Arizona Shoot Last Sunday

    Is that in the Lake Pleasant area?

    Anyone have pics of the bedding area of McRees and XLR Element chassis?

    Thanks, Kyle! Why the empty space between the front action screw and the recoil lug interface? Weight savings?

    NEW from XLR Industries **ELEMENT CHASSIS**

    It looks like the $115 folder is in addition to the $595.

    Anyone have pics of the bedding area of McRees and XLR Element chassis?

    Thanks, brother. That IS helpful. It's interesting how the recoil lug abutment in the stock before bedding was kind of 'stepped'. I wonder why McRees didn't make it just a nice vertical flat?

    Anyone have pics of the bedding area of McRees and XLR Element chassis?

    I'm trying to make my final decision between an XLR Element and a McRees G5 for my Savage, but I'd like to see what the 'innards' look like first. Anyone have pics of the inside of either chassis? I can't find anything really with a Google image search. Thanks.

    Neck dies Bushing vs Collet

    Only problem is Lee STILL hasn't made a collet neck-sizing die for the 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5x47Lapua! Argh!

    Maggie’s What does a tattoo say about you?

    Thanks for the heads-up. I didn't know that.

    Maggie’s What does a tattoo say about you?

    I'm glad you copy. Bible thumping often gets met with name-calling or hostility. ;) Semper Fi.

    Maggie’s What does a tattoo say about you?

    I mentioned Lev 19:28 because you asked Finris why it was against his Jewish religion. Jews typically follow "the Law", as it is written in the Pentateuch (first 5 books of the Bible). I apologize if you know all this already - since you asked Finris, I'm going to proceed like you didn't...

    Maggie’s What does a tattoo say about you?

    Leviticus 19:28 Personally, I have always found tattoos ugly. YMMV. I've always looked at it as graffiti or defacement of the REAL work of art - the human body.

    Giraud trimmer question

    I heard back from Doug. Here's what he said: I don't know. I have always sold separate case holders for those cartridge sizes. I don't think they have the same body taper because they have different lengths. .308 & .30-06 appear the same way, same diameter rim and shoulder, but different...

    Giraud trimmer question

    Are the 6.5 Creedmoor and 6.5x47 Lapua cases similar enough that I could get just one case holder (and one cutter/blade assembly) and trim both cartridges (obviously adjusting case holder depth as needed)?

    Rifle Scopes Vortex 3x magnifier

    I use one with the ADM mount. I like it and don't see the need to spend 3x the amount to get the EOTech or Aimpoint branded magnifiers.

    Lapping new factory rifle barrel? Yes - No...

    I was wondering the same thing. I have a Savage 12LRP in Creed that fouls something fierce. It shoots wonderfully, but after about 75 rounds, the fouling is so bad that precision goes to pot. I was thinking cleaning it to bare steel and then lead-lapping it like what is done to custom barrels...
