    The Fix from Q

    Kevin, I have had my Fix for some time now, its a very exciting rifle, but the lack of barrel options is beginning to be a big issue for me. Say what you will about the awesomeness of the Green Mountain barrels, but I have not had the greatest luck. It'll stack two, and sometimes three, but then...

    The Fix from Q

    I don't believe my accuracy problems have anything to do with heat build-up. I'm not entirely sure why I haven't been able to get a nice group, but its damned cold around here right now, I'm not 100% confident in my reloads, and I haven't shot much FGMM yet, but I may remedy that tomorrow, and...

    The Fix from Q

    I've got a 16" Fix .308 with a GM barrel. I haven't been able to get it to shoot absolute bugholes yet, but I'm not entirely convinced it isn't me in one way or another. I recently sent an e-mail to Q asking some questions, two of which will probably interest you guys here. Spoiler alert, they...

    The Fix from Q

    Proof has a pretty extensive weights list on their website. Maybe they lose a TINY bit when chambered, or the barrel extension adds a TINY bit, but it gives you a pretty good idea.

    Called Bergara. They said they are doing R&D on 6.5PRC now.

    Best EDC flashlight 2018

    I'm a lover of my Over Ready BOSS. Expensive, but rechargable 18350's and the ability to program it very easily yourself for your preferred UI is huge! I run my modes CLHM. Best light I've had to date! Sorry didn't see the price cap. As others have said, go Olight then.

    Mobile Reloading Setup

    I live a highly mobile lifestyle, with lots of hours to kill at work. I'm thinking of trying to build a mobile reloading setup that basically fits in a plastic tote allowing me to reload at work, in front of the TV at home, or in the camp trailer during a rain storm with a minimum of unpacking...

    Rifle Scopes Scope for a 6lb Rifle

    I have pondered this a lot too. Why doesn't anyone seem to make a weight-concious mil-based scope? I have the LRHS 4.5-18X44, it seems quite beefy to me, although I know its nothing compared to some out there. I love the features, but wish it was about 6-8 ounces lighter! I've got a PST gen 1...

    Which scout/patrol rifle

    My father has the Ruger American Ranch in 223 with an FDE stock its the earlier version with the shorter LOP. I gotta say it's a damn cool rifle for the money!

    AICS-style mag fitting issue

    Hello Sniper's Hide, I'm having some magazine issues with a new stick. The smith didnt get a chance to fit ARC mags for me because apparently they were backordered. I've tried P-mags, Alpha mag type 2's, and Ruger Gunsite scout mags. Only the GSR mags seem to fit. The other two's feed lips...

    SBR Bolt Rifle

    I was gonna do a 10.2 300blk with a pinned suppressor, I even had the mod 7 aac and an aac medium contour 1:7 barrel. I backed out because I can buy a Honey Badger for just a touch more money than the bolt gun was gonna be in the end. I know its not quite the same thing, but in the end, an AR...

    Kimber Hunter rifles?

    I've played with the Mountain Ascent in 280 AI. Nice rifle for what it's for, and 280AI is a killer round for the one-box-a-year crowd! Can't speak to the Kimber's Hunter line.

    Anyone shoot the Tikka T3x Tac A1 308win in 16" if not thoughts on the shorter barrel

    Why not just run your DTA with a 22" barrel and the longer handguard? I love my Tikka, and I've never had the coin for a Desert Tech, but it seems like a downgrade to me.

    6.5 "Shorty" Rifle build

    Looks like the "cool kids" over at Gunwerks think a 16.5" hunter is a viable idea. Mine's at the smith, I'm soooo excited for it to be done! I think mine will be a fair bit lighter and about $7000-$8000 dollars cheaper.
