    Which stock? KMW, T5A, AICS AX

    I have owned a KMW, and currently run a Manners T6-A. The KMW is an absolute gem to get behind for ME. Some of my buddies love it, others don't. I would get behind a KMW for a bit to try and see if you really want to own it. The only thing I didn't like about the KMW is that it is HEAVY...

    Brass Cleaning and Annealing for SH Members!

    Just wanted to post up here, I tried out Killshot's services for the first time by sending him a bucketfull of 6.5 Creedmoor. His communication, service, and follow up is outstanding. He chided me for not using enough padding to protect my brass, but also gave me some tips on what to do before...

    What's everyone's favorite muzzle brake?

    +1 for the Area 419. Great shooting experience, very intuitive and easy installation. The suppressor mounts really seal the deal for me. Can't go wrong IMO.

    Retrofit sling with Fast Adjust buckle?

    I too was wanting to do something like this, but couldn't figure out where to source the buckle from, nor do I have any idea how to sew. I got lucky and found some new old stock Ares armor slings over in Asia, literally had them shipped to me via arimail. I know they are not made anymore, but...

    Trigger Recommendation for Deviant Tactical

    I tried out a Triggertech for my recent build, could not be happier. Went with the flat blade. Very consistent, no noticeable creep. Easy install just like others, break is adjustable, but I don't think its as adjustable as they claim on the light end (basically, it seems to "bottom out" weight...

    Best place to get BDUs or similar tactical pants?

    Try some Prana Zion stretch pants. They are actually rock climbing pants, so the crotch area has super stretchy material. Insanely comfortable, lightweight, and flexible for all those weird shooting positions we get into. Has a cargo pocket on left leg, nothing insanely tacticool. Not hugely...

    Best way to attach a Harris Bipod to MPA chassis?

    bbowles yes I only ran it for a short time but it was great. I switched over to a Manners traditional stock as it is what I am used to. I can definitely see myself going with a chassis in the future again though, you just can't beat the modularity, price, or performance. I'm actually planning...

    Best way to attach a Harris Bipod to MPA chassis?

    When I had the MPA Lite, I also sprung for the picatinny spigot (the one that comes out the front of the forearm, under the barrel). I did have a picatinny adapter on my Harris. Not the simplest setup, but it worked. I also liked how it pushed the bipod mounting spot out further towards the...

    Rws gunsmithing builds and customer pictures.

    Robert spun up this barreled action for me. Like my previous build he did, this one shoots better than the monkey pulling the trigger. Great value, top notch work, super cool guy. I'm happy to have found him

    Sin City Precision Match Video With DMR LLC 6.5 Creedmoor Build.

    Awesome video. I was at this match, first time at this particular range. I did "well" enough to get the Prime ammo box, but I still had a hell of a time with a lot of cool people and great shooters.

    Best sensibly priced tripod solution? (Bog Pod, PRS Tripod, or Pig Saddle)

    Slik Pro 700DX tripod with pig saddle, mounted directly. Cheapest? Probably. Heaviest? Probably. Gets the job done though.

    Boot choice opinions

    Good to know I'm not the only one that likes the Reebok boots. I have wide feet, and run the 6" version. I tried using some Solomon Speedcross shoes. I can definitely see the appeal, but for my own fit (with wide-ish feet), I just couldn't run them comfortably.

    Nemo omen 300 wm

    I did Competition Dynamics Team Safari last year, my partner was shooting a Falkor Petra 300WM. I shot a few courses of fire with it, it is an awesome rifle. Recoil is much lower than you would think, I think mostly due to the awesome muzzle brake they put on it. Your ears will hate you but your...

    Magnetospeed chronograph

    I have the sporter. I made the mistake of using a buddy's V3. Functionally, the data provided by both units pretty much the same (almost no variance between outputs). IMO the V3 has a much better visual display unit and user interface, but it is reflected in the price point. Would I upgrade...

    Straight Jacket Barrel System / Dracos Barrels : Anyone else considering these?

    I shot a rifle with an early release Dracos chambered in 6.5 this past weekend. It is on a Surgeon action. The guy who is running worked up some handload 6.5 Creedmoor and he said he was pushing 3000 FPS through this barrel. The gun is accurate, and even with a monster looking barrel on it...

    Hearing Damage with Hearing Protection?

    Wow that sucks, my parents are experiencing hearing loss and I have witnessed firsthand how it can really impact quality of life. Here's my setup: Indoor range: foamies with MSA Sordin. I have girlishly small ear canals, so I have to use "slim fit" ear plugs. Getting these greatly improved...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    As a follow up to my above post, I shot Mr. Manners a PM and literally with an hour got a phone call. They have arranged to have me send back the stock (with my trigger) and they will inlet the stock for me and send me the missing parts. I have heard of the outstanding customer service from...
