    APA little fat bastard vs Area 419 hellfire?

    I prefer the APA, have shot more than one gun with them and they make a quality product. Any brake is going to make the person next to you unhappy because of the bark and if the brake is expelling the gasses, it going to move the dirt around you. I don't find it to be overwhelming with the APA...

    Excellent advice for life, regardless of whether you achieve your goal or not...you will be a better person for following the advice above. A lot of todays "millennials" have the attention span of a gnat, complain about everything, seek 15th place trophies and just are awful in the...

    wanting a 6.5 creedmoor where to start?

    Tikka TX3 Tac A1...… I shoot one in 6.5 Creedmoor. It is a laser for a factory rifle. I find that it loves the Hornady 140gr eld ammo. Action is smooth as glass and you will not recognize it compared to the Remington's that you are used to. Reasonable money to start. Trigger takes a little...

    Best Bolt-Action Tactical Sniper Rifle for the money?

    A cheaper way to go would be a Remington 700P in 300 win mag, change the trigger and install your scope and base. These can be had for just under 1K when available. HS precision stock, 26 inch barrel etc. I have one in .308 that I have been using for a while and added triggertech special...

    7mm Rem Mag

    There seems to be some bullet weight vs. barrel twist info that may not relate book spec to reality...… I would like to stay in the 168-175 range, but want to make sure 26 inch barrel with 8.7 twsit rate is acceptable. As far as powder, I see some use Retumbo, some H1000, some RL22, some...

    Remington 700 with Triggertech Special Trigger Issue - Advice Please

    Thank you all for your responses. I bent the tab on the trigger back toward the rear of the rifle so that it layed in the notch on the factory bolt stop lever. That prevented the metal to metal bind that was causing it to maintain the bolt release in a depressed position. Shot the rifle today...
