    To be clear the 300 win xcr long range is not threaded. 338 lapua is threaded, and not sure about other calibers. ​​​​​​

    6.5creedmoor or 300wmg?

    The xcr does NOT come threaded. The recoil is not bad but I have a ATACR F1 5-25x 56mm and a Harris bipod that weighs 19-20 oz on mine. Left mine unbreaked because of dust kick up. Factory threading will not time with your muzzle break. When in comes to breaks it still has to be timed unless you...

    Range Report Berger 195 EOL vs Hornady 180 ELDM

    What are you going to be shooting with these bullets? ​I would go berger but I elk hunt a lot and like the wound channel they create on this size of animal. The hornady should expand faster and maybe even a little bit better at extreme ranges. ​​​​​

    Gunsmithing Educate me on DLC and Nitride Coatings on actions

    Living in AZ any oil or grease has to be cleaned out and replaced often. If you let it get too gritty it is like sand paper.

    Mounting bipod to keymod?

    The enhanced uppers work really well with 15" handguards. Very stable even with really heavy guns. The aero percision ones are my go to now. Great $ to benefit ratio.

    Reload precision rifle on Dillon 650?

    Thanks for the info padom! Think the differences I have seen may have been related to using dillon dies. Will have to throw a set of redding dies into a 650 and load up more rounds that way.

    Gunsmithing Cutting weight on a rifle

    What do you hunt and how far do you need to shoot with this rifle? ​​ Could you go with a smaller caliber? This could allow you to drop another barrel contour and maybe allow a shorter barrel without loss of accuracy or increasing your trajectory.

    Rifle Scopes ADM Mount on semi-auto precision hunting rig?

    Check your tension on the ADM. I have one of their bipod adapters and every picatinny rail seems to fit it a little different. Some barely tight enough and other I can barely close the lever all the way. Taking on and off the rail will loosen the fit as well. The TPS rings will work no matter...
