    Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

    From the previous responses to subsonic loads, the DT stock barrel isn't designed for subsonics due to the barrel twist, correct? Just wanted to make sure I understood that properly. I'm looking at getting the 338 26" and 308 shorty. But not necessarily too worried about subsonics, would be...

    A dealer I just spoke to stated they could order the handguard assembly for the covert if I purchased the SRS and he would show me how interchange them. Is this possible?

    Okay, well it's settled then. Now on the hunt for an SRS Covert... and just gotta rob a bank. Figure I'd order directly from DT, don't that have LEO/MIL pricing? Thought I remember seeing something about that several months ago. Guess if I find one at a local dealer in North Carolina I...

    Would a suppressor extend the range much?

    Well I was thinking more of the bipod placement and getting back on target. Having the bipod out as far as possible would make target acquisition and small adjustments easier. Is an 18" 338 barrel capable of 1000-2000 yards? I'm not thinking it is, and thats why 26" is the sweet spot. Also is...

    Anyone have any experience with the covert chassis and the 26" 338 barrel? How bad is shooting extreme long range with the bipod so close? I did Gunsite's long range course with a Ruger RPR and am now going to do the extreme long range which requires 1000-2000 capable round. The covert offers...

    I was hoping the SRS could have a grip similar to the feel of a Magpul MOE+ I like that grippy feeling. Wondering if you can get it dipped in the rubber after your modification somehow.

    AHAHAHAH! Ain't that the truth! What does Conrad mean by mag flare skins? I'm actually surprised no one has come out with aftermarket handguards for this. I read that the covert/srs handguards are interchangable, is that correct? I haven't seen them for sale anywhere. Also, I'm interested...

    I'm hoping that DT will be focusing on a next gen SRS once their MDR comes out. I'm itching to buy one, but know that the day I do, the newer model will come out... probably something with mlok hand guard and interchangeable grip. Does the SRS us spacing in/near the grip negating the...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I saw a youtube video explaining and going through the process. Looks like I'd need a barrel vice and the AR tool (which I have already). Think I'll just let a local gunsmith install it, should cost that much money. The stock Ruger 6.5 barrels appear to be 4 inches longer. I'm assuming that 24"...

    They have a small pistol range that was extended out to 100 yards to accommodate rifles. It's not for public use. Local and Federal LE use it for their qualifications. The Biltmore Estate police/rangers use it for their own use. I'm lucky enough to have access to it when it's not being used...

    Finished up a long range shooting class at Gunsite AZ a few weeks ago. First two pics are from the Gunsite ranges. 3rd pic is on the Biltmore Estate zeroing 100 yards in NC. Learned a lot about long range shooting, and a TON about spotting! This is definitely a hobby I am going to be...
