    Pin and weld suppressor?

    I have an idea bouncing around in my head and wanted to get a few opinions. My favorite rig is based on a 12.5" Criterion Hybrid barrel. Next to my "precision" rig, it's my most accurate setup. It almost seems like it goes on autopilot everytime I squeeze the trigger. Anyway, I've never been...

    Questions about using rings to mount on an AR

    I wasn't able to find anything, so thought I'd ask. I'm a big fan of the AR platform and have a few. On one of my rigs, I run a 1-8x NX8. This is a short scope, with a relatively short eye relief. For me, I do not require my mount to be cantilevered to put the scope where I need it to be, so I...

    Criterion barrels - Accuracy

    A while back, I decided that I wanted to go with barrels that would stand up to hard use a bit better than the run of the mill Ballistic Advantage or Roscoe type barrels and decided to go with Criterion. I went with a 14.5 Core to run with a 10x scope, a 13.9 Core to run with an ACOG and a 12.5...

    Shooting a 10/22

    Well, I've recently been bitten by the rimfire bug. I had some friends at my range pestering me about shooting the Saturday matches over there, so I finally decided to give it a try. I told them that I had a 10/22 to shoot the match with and they all told me that I couldn't do it with a 10/22...

    Looking for something more

    I've been shooting .308 for a little bit now and I'm on my second semi custom rifle. I'm getting to be a pretty good shooter and am now getting really bored with the .308. Now I'm looking for something with more thump, just for the thrill of it. The reason that I went with .308 is that it's a...

    Rifle Scopes Just got my 6-24X50 SFP PST: first observations

    After taking it out of the box, I noticed a few things. The first is that it does have a solid feel to it. It definitely doesn't feel like a cheap POS. The knurling on the knobs is rather fine, sharp even. I'm a little worried that it's fine and sharp enough to snag stuff like clothing. The...

    Rifle Scopes Keeping crud off of your objective

    Hey guys, Whenever I get out in the field, I invariably forget to close my objective cover or are just plain not using one, like on my Nightforce where I use the bikini cover. Even when I'm trying to be careful, I always wind up getting crud on my objective. I don't know about you guys, but...

    Anyone not like the AICS chassis? Why?

    Hey guys, I have a Remington 700 that I've put a bit of work (money) into that I have grown to really like. It's sitting in an HS Precision 700P pull off stock right now. I recently acquired another SPS Tactical in .223 and was thinking about getting another pull off stock for it, but then I...

    Need help with ring height

    I did a search and didn't find exactly what I needed to know. Anyway, I have a Remy 700 with a Krieger MTU profile barrel. I have a Nightforce 5.5-22X50 on a Nightforce 20MOA mount. Does anyone have a similar setup and are running Nightforce rings? Or any brand of rings for that matter. I'm...

    Need DBM info for .223 bolt gun

    I just picked up an SPS Tactical in .223 to compliment my .308 bolt gun. I threw a little Nightforce 2.5-10X32 on top of it and took it out this weekend. I like the rifle and really don't think it NEEDS anything, but I did two things while shooting it. The first is that it hates 77gr...

    Re: 155 SMK 2156 - Does this sound right?

    Hey guys, I've been playing around with all sorts of new loads for my .308 since I put the new barrel on it. I went with a 22" Krieger and the smith that did the work told me that he used a reamer appropriate for the Sierra SMK, whatever that means. Anyway, I loaded up 50 of the 155 Palma SMKs...

    .308 best barrel length

    Hey guys, I think I may have screwed up my barrel or there is an excess of copper build up someplace or something. In any case, I'm tired of dealing with it. I just ordered a barrel from Krieger. It's going to be 26" long, so I can go up to 25" long on it, once all is said and done. I really...

    Rifle Scopes Mounting scope on Remington 700

    I have an issue that's been driving me crazy and maybe for nothing. I have an SPS Tactical on which the mount holes are drilled way off center. When I mounted the scope up using regular rings, I had to correct the windage by something around 30 minutes to get the scope on target. I HEARD that...

    .308 bullet weight

    Hey guys. I'm new here and new to bolt guns as well. I'm shooting an SPS Tactical in .308. This is my rig.... I've been experimenting a lot with 168gr bullets and have settled on a couple of loads that have performed well at 100 yards. I have very limited access to longer ranges. A friend...
