    It is not going to be pretty when its done

    Re: It is not going to be pretty when its done The fit and finish came out great. One minor setback was the bolt release is now sticky I think when it all came back together its touching somewhere ill have the smith look at it tomorrow. From what I have read it is common after some trigger work.

    It is not going to be pretty when its done

    So prior to joining the hide all I had shot were Ruger 10/22 but I knew I wanted a bolt gun at some point. I had been saving up my spare cash till I had about 2.5k saved up. I finally decided to buy a .308 and after speaking to a few friends they all suggested I buy a Remington 700. Being the...

    Sell and start over or work with what I have

    Re: Sell and start over or work with what I have Sold the stock? I always thought that B&C were decent stocks? I guess I still have a lot to learn. For now ill start drop in mods that can carry over. Drop in trigger,and a bedding job, maybe a DBM.Least until till I have enough for a barrel.

    Sell and start over or work with what I have

    Here is my dilemma. I own a Remington 700 target tactical yes the overpriced one with the triangle barrel and B&C stock. This was my 1st bolt gun and I had more money than sense at the time. Round count is about 120. I got a quote roughly of 600 bucks to do this work.-- Machine a thread...

    Build a new rifle, or buy a used "turn-key" rifle?

    Re: Build a new rifle, or buy a used "turn-key" rifle? Don't know where you are at in the game but do not rule out a solid .22LR bolt gun like a http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/MARKIIFVSR with a good scope. In these times my 22s are getting more range time than any of my other...

    Re: Bell & Carlson Stock Warranty, AMAZINGLY GOOD! I was on the fence about ordering a B&C stock for a project I want to start but this has just sealed the deal on it.It is good to see companies that are doing it right.

    5R 1-11 1/4 twist which projectile does yours like

    Re: 5R 1-11 1/4 twist which projectile does yours like I guess that's what I get for not doing my homework. Looking @ the box there were the 150s. I still have not made it out the range but I am hoping that the 168s do well. I may pick up a box of 175s on the way home to test with also. Thank...
