    Stainless steel counter tops anybody build them?

    Wal-Mart. Bought a few of their food prep tables for $100 per. They are sold online only. 2.5’x5’ with a 400lb rating if I remember correctly. Pulled them off sat them on my frame for a perfect heavy duty game processing station. Hope this helps

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell DMR ii 3.5-21 VS Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 5-25.....Which to buy?

    Have both, prefer the Bushnell. Subjective preference. The viper feels like a toy. It does have better turrets. My PST Gen 2 was $$800 with discount. Fair to slightly over priced. The Athlon BTR is far better to me and cost less vs the PST Gen 2. First DMR2 and HDMR2 were over a grand. I bought...

    7MM Fans: what are your top three favorite "7mm magnum" factory cartridges

    10 years from now the 7mm Rem Mag will still be on the shelf of every ammo shop in the world. As it has been since it came out. Many a wonder chambers have came and gone in that time. No reason to believe it will change.

    Bullet stability - .308

    Remember, when looking at twist rate calculators, figure your shooting ability in as well. 1-12, 1-11.25, 1-10, and 1-8 twist have hit with weights of 155-190 past 1000 for me. Twist rate stability with standard twist rates are really most applicable to transonic and subsonic flight. Twist rate...

    Gunsmithing Xcaliber barrels

    There are 03 of the top ELR shooters using the Xcaliber blanks that I can personally verify. No noted issue after over 30 barrels between the 3 of them and a 4 th guy that practices with them. I was offered a free one for a project, but the article was canceled. In the big Cheytac ( 7mm, 338)...

    You can buy a RPR in 338 LM cheaper than you can build off of what you have. Not an engineer so I can’t speak to the the safety. Just an FYI, hope this helps.

    Frankford Arsenal Brass Cleaning Packs--My Experience

    Just the packet and cold water? No steel pins? What’s the inside and primer pockets look like?

    Sold

    Yep that’s not a 550. I suggest changing the description. It appears to be a squat deal. It looks like the picture on the book that reads “Square Deal”.

    185 Juggernauts in 1:12 AI 308

    Just some food for thought. My 1-12 is a custom chamber cut for the 168 SMK. Took for ever to get the 175 SMK to work the way I wanted (due to the chamber). Got it done and they do work well. Shot it that way for years. Still do some times. Tried the 155 Lapua Scenars and the load was easier...

    Fn spr handload?

    I quit reloading for mine. The crome lined barrel never allowed for much better than FGMM did. 3/4 average with FGMM, slightly less with reloads. At $17 a box (on sale) kinda hard to justify reloading then. Just my experience, food for thought. Hope this helps.
