    Any Marlin model 60 Owners in here?

    I have one and it's a great rifle. I updated several items on mine to make it even better. I upgraded to a Boyd's Rimfire Hunter stock, MCARBO spring kit, a DIP trigger guard and trigger and Tech sights. Its a blast to load up the tube magazine and just unload as fast as possible. Still one of...

    Gunsmithing To rebarrel or wait.

    I'm in the same boat, I really want to re-barrel my rifle in either a 260 or 6.5 creedmoor. I feel that getting more time behind a rifle that can actually shoot sub moa groups would benefit me more than a rifle that can't.

    Boyd's stock on my Marlin

    Nice choice in stocks, I have two Boyd's stocks, I have the Rimfire Hunter for my Marlin Model 60 and a Tacticool for my Marlin XT-22. They are great upgrades from the cheap plastic stocks that come with the rifles. Enjoy your new set up.

    Rimfire scope recommendations 2014?

    I have the Primary Arms 4-14X44 ffp Mil/Mil scope with a set of Vortex 30mm Tactical low rings on a Marlin XT-22 and could not be happier with the combination. The scope is very clear and the rings are prefect for the low recoil of the .22. I have had this set up for almost two years now and...

    Rem gunsmithing

    I had Mark with Spartan Precision Rifles do a barrel cut and re-thread job on my 700 SPS over a year ago, he is a great guy to deal with and does outstanding work.

    Boyd's Tacticool Stock Modification . . . another DIY project

    I could see you charging $50-$75 for this mod, plus the cost for shipping. If you ever decide to do this for others let me know. I have the Tacticool stock for a Marlin XT-22 that I would love to have this done to. I'm pretty handy and all but don't have any of the required tools to accomplish...

    Wyatt's DBM feed problem

    Both my brother and I had the same issues as you, we got to a point were it was just easier to sell them and we went with a McRee chassis instead. Now we have no more FTF from the mags. What really seemed to be the problem with the Wyatts mag was the second round in the mag. When the top round...

    McRees Chassis Questions

    I went with a McRees chassis for my 700 and couldn't be happier about it. I really like all the adjustments it has. It makes getting comfortable behind the rifle really easy. I didn't go with the stock pack instead I put on a cheek-eez, made a world of difference on the cold aluminum.

    Gunsmithing Lapped scope rings marking scope tube

    Re: Lapped scope rings marking scope tube So after doing a bunch more reading on this subject I think I have come up with a pretty simple solution to this. Yes the bare aluminum will mark the scope tube, do to the properties of bare aluminum (kinda acts like sand paper - Aluminum Oxide). So...

    Gunsmithing Lapped scope rings marking scope tube

    I just recently lapped a set of Burris XTR scope rings and now am getting marks on my scope tube from the bare aluminum on the rings.(Is this normal?) I cleaned the rings of all lapping compund and tightened the rings to 20 inch pounds. I ended up removing them because I needed to move the scope...

    Spartan built 308 win build.

    Re: Spartan built 308 win build. Yeah that was the one I saw, he showed us several rifles he was working on along with his comp rifle. I do believe he was turning down your bolt knob for the Badger knob when we showed up. It sure is a great looking rifle, I'm a bit jealous for sure

    Spartan built 308 win build.

    Re: Spartan built 308 win build. My brother and I were actaully down at Marc's yesterday, he cut down and threaded our .308 barrels and timed our JEC brakes for us. I do believe I saw your rifle as he was working on it yesterday. All I can say about Marc is that he is a master at what he...

    Anyone running a Boyds Rimfire Hunter stock?

    Re: Anyone running a Boyds Rimfire Hunter stock? I have a Boyds Rimfire Hunter for a Marlin Model 60, it is a very good upgrade from the plastic stocks that come on most rifles. I have it in the Forest Camo color and it is a really nice stock, my brother also has one on his Marlin 60. I...
