    Advice on a silenced 308 gasser?

    There is a wealth of disinformation out there and I've wasted a few thousand dollars trying to get a 308 AR running with a can. If you have a suppressed rifle with a low round count that you don't actually shoot, please don't chime in. I realize how rude that is, but I really don't want to...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    Range report: the mag cycled one time out of five tries as it came from the factory, with messed up feed lips. The top round sits 80% of the way to the left. I unbent the mangled feedlips to normalish, and it still didn't work. I bent them outward so the cartridge would sit higher and center...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    I tried their plastic mag and it never worked in my AICS guns. MDT sent me a competitor's mag which worked fine and I gave away the MDT. This new mag with the metal feedlips was busted up when I received it, but appears to function. I'm gonna test it this afternoon. As for CDI, I don't have...

    But the new metal feedlip MDT mags do not require that! AM I THE ONLY ONE THIS HYPED ABOUT THIS?!

    I also have the PBR's aluminum frame Hogue.

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    As of last night, I have one. I put the PBR in my SPR's chassis. The McMillan is empty.

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    With a McRee chassis, the new MDT mag locked into my unmodified PBR action. The mag doesn't have an overtravel stop specifically for a Win 70 so it can sit too high and interfere with the bolt. So I pulled it down to the mag latch. From there, a 300 WSM round went from mag to chamber in my...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    How did I not put 2+2 together?! The MDT mags should work regaurdless of chassis manufacture. I'm going to try it. It could be the best option for a WSM.

    I'd say my SPR is a 5/8" gun. So that's .6 MOA. I have a more accurate gun, but I like the SPR better.

    Wet rubber is slippery. Texture is the play.

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    I think I've yet to meet someone with a 700 that is willing to admit they're unreliable. I once got into a fight with a guy over it. He video taped himself putting 10 rounds through his to prove it to me. There were 4 malfs. He said that's no big deal and completely normal. I agreed that it...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    I'm ok with how smooth the SPR is because I know it won't malfunction. It's the only action I've used that I have any confidence in the reliability. I still haven't met a push feed that works.

    Thank you. People keep offering m70 products, telling noone, and discontinuing then when they don't sell.

    I realize MDT is pushing their products really hard, but I don't see a chassis they make that will fit our actions.

    Yes. The rifle is fantastic.

    Firearms FN PBR XP 300WSM + McMillan A5

    I bought the stock. However, I reccommend avoiding whatever version of mcmillan stock this is. The cheek piece comes loose after every shot. Very bad design. Instead of a clamp on rods, it uses a pointed set screw into a flat piece of aluminum. I'm surprised McMillan, as a company, wasn't...

    I'd be in for a heavy one. I need a barrel.

    Rifle Scopes Something New From Vortex

    IMO they haven't made a decent rifle scope yet, except for everything they put the Razor name on. The Razor stuff you can inject directly into my veins.

    New Sig CROSS

    1. I don't know of one. 2. Airtight and sand tight are two different things, but there's the magwell if I needed a place for more air. 3. Citation needed, because you're 100% wrong. Please, continue to use an array of fallacies instead of addressing my question or the issue at hand. I'll...
