    6.5 PRC Issues

    I wanted to hear from other owners of 6.5 PRC's. Shooting Hornady factory ammo, do you have ejector swipes? On my 6.5 prc I have been fighting it for about a year. I sent the barreled action back to the place that made the barrel, so they could inspect it. I am getting ejector swipes bad...

    Ruger Hawkeye Action Question

    I bought a Ruger Hawkeye as i have several of the M77 MKII's (same action) and love them. However this rifle has been a turd from the get go. The action and bolt were both bead blasted to make for the roughest operating action I have ever seen. I polished the bolt, and ran it about 1000 times to...

    Thoughts on Grayboe DBM?

    Just throwing it out there, I run the magpul DBM setup in my Grayboe stocks. It required slight relieving in the stock but was very easy to do.

    Left Hand AR for my son need help Stag Arms

    I shoot left handed and have both left and right hand AR's. I prefer my Stag Left hand AR over any other AR I have shot/owned. The big reason was when I added a suppressor, there was so much gas blow back in my face it was miserable. It is odd at first shooting left hand guns, but once I have...

    Trigger Tech ?

    What is the difference between the standard trigger, special, and diamond? other than the fact you can go lighter. I like my triggers around 2lbs pull wight so seems like the standard one would work. Is there anything different other then the pull adjustability?

    6.5 PRC

    I have both a 6.5cm and a 6.5prc. the 6.5cm is 24" barrel and shoots hornady factory 140gr ammo at 2688fps (i think this is a little slow as barrel isn't broken in yet) 6.5prc 147 factory horandy ammo is 2942 (barrel also is brand new with less than 50 rounds down it) Unless you can get a...

    700 Extractor Issue

    I guess I need to go look at the brass a little closer. I wouldn't think Hornady factory ammo would be over pressured. If it has that much pressure, will you see pressure signs in the primer as well? Or is this more from bad batch of brass?

    700 Extractor Issue

    Ooops I stated it wrong. The ejector is what I was talking about getting stuck. It keeps getting brass shavings causing it to get stuck in the hole. I had the bolt apart and cleaned it up, then put a little bit of grease on the bolt lugs. Now that it is cerakoted it is harder to operate...

    700 Extractor Issue

    Have you ever seen an extractor get stuck in the bolt? I tore my 300wm apart, and put on a 6.5prc barrel. I had the action and barrel cerakoted, and the face of the action trued. After I received it back I am having this issue. Essentially the extractor is getting brass shavings somehow...

    Grayboe Stocks?

    I bought a grayboe terrain stock when they were on sale for christmas. It is a decent stock, not quit as nicely finished out as i thought it would be from all the reviews. I ended up modifying it for a left hand long action. I was very suprised how soft the fiberglass was. It definately...

    6.5 PRC

    I have my remage barrel all together and shooting. It is a 26" Mcgowen barrel on a long action. I have only shot the Hornady 147 ELDM factory ammo, so far I'm seeing 2943fps. I have less than 50 rounds down the tube, so I expect to see the speeds increase some.

    7mm Rem. Mag Weatherby Vangard, what can I do with this gun?

    Also to throw this out there. Mcgowen now offers barrel nuts for the Weatherby/Howa rifles. So you could have them spin you up a barrel in about anything and install it yourself.

    Gunsmithing Grayboe stock mods

    Yep, I converted a Greyboe long action over to left hand. I put the magpul DBM in the stock, it fit almost perfectly. All i had to do was open up the area where the front action screw is, as the Magpul was a little tight there. Other than that it fit perfectly. I will try and get some pics of it...

    Gunsmithing Pre-fit Barrel Headspace

    Your suppose to have it tight on the GO gauge? I installed two barrels lately where I was tight on the go gauge. This made it so that some ammo was tight closing the bolt, even factory Hornady match ammo once in a while was hard to close the bolt. I loosened the barrels and set them so that...

    AR10 Question

    Alright an update on this. Sent the gun back to stag which was a giant waste of 3 weeks. All they did was say that it wasn't covered under warranty because I changed the butt stock and grip.... the tech must not have seen where i bought it as a bones kit and needed to add these to even shoot the...

    AR10 Question

    I have used several different brands of adjustable gas blocks, and honestly they all work basically the same. Some have a screw with a detent, and i really like those. However, any gas block i have setup i set it and leave it at that setting, thus the detent is useless after that. I ordered a...

    Single Stage Trigger

    Jard! I have a few different triggers from them and love them. Just bought their adjustable modular AR trigger (after seeing this not sure why anyone would buy one of their others, as it has all the features and functions of the others but is cheaper....) They are fully adjustable and you can...

    AR10 Question

    I plan on getting an adjustable gas block, and polish the feed ramps. Since stag is sending me a label to have the gun inspected I'm gonna send it off and see what they say. How do you know what buffer weigh and spring to go with?

    AR10 Question

    When polishing the feed ramps, do you take a small flap wheel on a dremel and smooth out the machining marks while also knocking off the edges? Then take some polishing compound and polish them up like a mirror? I can see this helping as it is amazing how much polishing a trigger surface...
