    Gunsmithing Custom Work on an AI AE Mk III

    I am looking for a reputable place to be a one stop shop for some custom work on my AI AE Mk III. I am wanting the rifle to be dipped or ceracoted in a camouflage patter, have my Kahles scope duracoted, and have the barrel threaded for a suppressor. I want a reputable place to ensure the threads...

    Getting set up for reloading, kit or piece by piece?

    I know there are a million different components and tools for reloading and this isn't really a "whats best" thread. I have never reloaded before, but was going to start doing it for my AI in 6.5 Creedmoor. I will be exclusively reloading for this setup and exclusively trying to reload for...

    Rifle Scopes Is my new +$2700 scope not tracking properly?

    I will be going back out in a week and will do a tall target and box test. I just wanted to see if my line of thinking and rational made sense.

    Rifle Scopes Is my new +$2700 scope not tracking properly?

    Ok I have had my new AI AE MKIII in 6.5 Creedmoor with 26in barrel out to the range twice. The first time wearing my old Vortex PST 4-16x50, and the second time with my new Kahles 624i. Both times I was shooting factory Hornady creedmoor ammo, same lot #. Also both times were at the same...

    US Optics Anti-Cant device

    So I have had one on back order for over a month now. The retailer who I purchased it from said one to two weeks before shipping. I have heard US Optics is going through some changes and did not know if this effected their production of their anti-cant devices. Does anyone know when these bad...

    Rifle Scopes Desert Tactical Arms' AMR Reticle

    I just ordered a Kahles K624i with the AMR reticle. It should be in next week and I am super stoked. I will post up some pics when I get it, but I already love it just from what I have seen of it so far.

    Has anyone heard anything more on these? Vortex's site went from showing coming in the summer to coming soon. Leads me to think they may be delayed...

    My dilemma on my next rifle

    Well I decided. I placed a call to Euro Optic and got their last AE Mk III in 6.5. The AT is a great system, but for my needs the AE will do me just fine. Especially when you talk about the cost difference between the two to get the AT set up for 6.5. Thanks for all the input guys and I can’t...

    My dilemma on my next rifle

    Thanks for the reply. In regards to glass, I have pre-ordered a Vortex Gen2 and that will go on which ever rifle I choose. I have only touched into the match world, but that is the intent on this 6.5 rifle. Also when buying gear, I have a tendency to be in the "buy once cry once" camp. That is...

    My dilemma on my next rifle

    Ok my next rifle is going to be a 6.5 creedmoor. I currently have a BCM SPR complete with a Geissele trigger and Vltor A5 system. It has been a very accurate rifle and I regularly play at 600 yards with it. I was planning on doing a Savage 12LRP in 6.5 to complement my SPR, but more and more I...

    Rifle Scopes Ken Farrell base for Savage 12LRP

    I am looking for a 30 MOA base for a Savage 12LRP in 6.5 creed. Ken Farrell seems to be the only one I can find. I found this one below: "Savage Precision Target in Steel Black Matte - 30 MOA": Ken Farrell, Inc. -- Savage Precision Target in Steel Black Matte - 30 MOA Would this be the...

    Rifle Scopes Razor HD Gen II 4.5-27x56

    I understand that these scopes are really only in the hands of Vortex, but do the Gen2 scopes offer any improvements to the glass over the Gen1 scopes (i.e. glass sourced from different location, different coatings) that would provide better optical performance? I know the bigger objective lens...

    Savage LRP 6.5 creedmoor

    I know the small shank barrels are easier to come by, but would you say the added rigidity of the LRP target repeater action makes up for the lack of barrel availability? I ask because I am debating building off a 12 action or buying a LRP and using that action as a base. The one thing that...

    70 MOA adjustment enough?

    I am building a 6.5 Creedmoor rifle and I am trying to decide on a scope. I plan to use this setup to the limit of the 6.5 CM, but 80% of the usage will be 1000yrds and under. When I calculate a hypothetical load up of a 140gr A-max bullet going 2850 fps at just above sea level, I get the bullet...
