    Bartein or Lilja for fast twist bolt gun barrel?

    Sorry David. Between the two - Just pick one as it won't make a noticeable difference in your application.

    Bartein or Lilja for fast twist bolt gun barrel?

    Not what you asked but buy a CZ MTR (or something CZ) and shoot good 40 gr subsonic and do better and cheaper also.

    Maybe... Might be you have no appreciation for the finer things in life? Might be because as a young person you have yet to learn beauty? Might be because you are simply a dumbass? I just don't know the answer....:cool:

    Lets talk about THESE !

    Wood and tactical? To each their own but I am just not seeing it. Build your tactical stuff out of aluminum and plastic and beat the shit out of them and leave the beautiful wood for beautiful rifles.

    Lets talk about THESE !

    Anschutz 1712 barreled action and a custom stock will get it done for you. And ain't it the truth. Take a superb idea with outstanding execution of the action itself and then hang a 5 lb bugger off its bottom. The whole idea of the quadruple sized mag is like a Dodge pickup grill grafted onto...

    Front shooting rest pad 4" in the clear?

    My bag will handle a 3" so a new bag is unnecessary. I just got caught up in the bigger is better thought pattern. I looked for a metal plate but the wood one is really nice and matches the forearm of the BSA Martini fairly well so I am counting it as a win. Plus my friend would accept no...

    Front shooting rest pad 4" in the clear?

    My buddy made me another one (3") and it now has 3 coats of Tru oil on it and is near ready for use.... I kept the 4" but will probably never use it now that I have this one.

    Front shooting rest pad 4" in the clear?

    I have a 4" BR plate that fits into my bottom rail on a rifle and would like to find a pad that is 4"+ between the ears that will fit into a Caldwell Rock front rest. Is there such a piece?

    .22lr and max wind

    IMO Shoot in whatever conditions you find. You may/will shoot in a match in the same conditions. I shot a benchrest silhouette (2 - 40 shot matches actually) today - ~ one MOA targets at 100 meters. Chickens, pigs, damned turkeys and rams with a variable wind generally from 3 to 5 o'clock at...

    New 22 for krg bravo.

    All of your choices are easily customized and have a good selection of aftermarket parts and add on stuff available. I'm not sure if any one of them has a higher ceiling of possibly accuracy than the others so....... Buy one and play with it until you are tired of it then buy the next one and...

    Rimfire FOUND - Anschutz 2013 or a 54-30 action

    Need a new project to play with. WTB an Anschutz 2013 or a 54-30 action. Barreled action or complete gun. Will very likely replace stock and barrel so condition is secondary to price. Might consider different builder Anschutz action.... Thanks for looking

    Remington 541-T any good

    Had one and it shot very well. I ended up installing a Timney 788 trigger on it and it was a favorite until I started on the Anschutz path and I ended up passing it along. It would do <.5 with a number of different mid range ammos.

    Guess I'm Lucky This Wasn't One of My Centerfire Rifles

    Glad you still have both eyes after this.... Glasses are required on most ranges for a good reason....
