    Rifle Scopes Tract Toric 4-20 vs other Tract models?

    I have the Tract Toric 4-20x50 PRS MRAD. I really like the reticle and the scope. However, the tunneling effect when looking through it is worse than I would expect for a scope this price. Is tunneling an issue with the 4-25x50?

    LRF Mono, which one?

    I'm still using an older Sig rangefinder and the display is fading out on me. I need a new rangefinder but want something that'll last and is accurate. Wouldn't mind another Sig provided the display last longer than this one. Who are the players these days in the 4-5K yard range without breaking...

    LRI Heavy Tactical Rem Profile Lug and KRG Bravo

    LRI just rebarreled a Rem700 for me. I decided to go with the Rem 700 Rem profile heavy tactical lug (.300 thick). For those of you running this recoil lug from LRI, was it a direct drop-in to a KRG Bravo or did you have to mill the slot?

    Gunsmithing Rem BDL to AICS?

    Stupid question but can't find the exact answer. I have an older Remington 700 LTR (w/ original BDL bottom metal). Is this receiver a drop-in for something like a KRG Bravo so that I can use AICS magazines without any milling on the receiver?

    6 Creedmoor - 115 DTAC HBN with H4350/Alpha LRP?

    Advice is appreciated here. I've looked around and haven't quite had my questions answered. I put a new 6 Creed Krieger 26" 7.5 twist (SAAMI chamber - Keystone Accuracy) on an Origin action. I've done some load development on new Alpha LRP brass and wanted input on what others are seeing with...

    Feeding from Accurate AI Mags in Bighorn Origin

    I'm running an Origin in 6mm CM in a KRG Bravo using Accurate AICS mags. There tends to be some binding when attempting to chamber a round. If I push the bolt straight forward, it chambers more easily. If I put any side load on the bolt, it tends to not want to feed. Is there anything I should...

    Remove Origin base screws when installing barrel?

    How many of you have not removed your 20MOA rail when installing a shouldered barrel? My concern is with the base screws protruding into the tenon threads of the barrel? Does Zermatt provide base screws short enough that you are able to install the barrel without removing the rail?

    Rifle Scopes Brownells MPO vs. Tract

    I'm looking at a new scope in the price range of these two. The two I'm looking at are the MPO 3-18x50 and the Tract 4-20x50. What that said, which would you choose and why? I'm interested mostly in clarity, tracking and warranty.

    What size bolts for Viper Barrel Vise?

    I need to mount a Viper barrel vise to a workbench. What diameter bolts are you using to mount the vise? Holes don't look quite 1/2" in dia. Also, what are folks using for torque specs when clamping the barrel in the vice? Will 45 ft.-lbs. be sufficient if torquing a barrel down to 70 ft-lbs...

    Gunsmithing LRI Heavy Tactical Recoil Lug and KRG Bravo?

    I have an one of the older group buy LRI builds. It came with a .285 thick Heavy Tactical Recoil Lug. Will a LRI Heavy Tactical Lug fit in a KRG Bravo without the need to inlet? I'm more concerned with the height of the lug as opposed to the thickness. I'm hoping for a drop-in fit. Thanks

    Gunsmithing Removing a pinned recoil lug?

    Is it possible to remove a pinned recoil lug without damaging the action? I have the tombstone type lug and would like to replace it with the original Remington shaped lug during a new barrel install. The tomb-shaped lug is too wide and some stocks need to be milled for fitting. I'd rather it...

    Alpha / 6.5 CM / RL16 / 140 ELDM Load Recommendations?

    I purchased a Hawk Hill 1/8 26" barreled action. I've always been a Lapua fan but decided to use Alpha LRP brass this go round. Can someone tell me what their load is using: - 6.5 CM Alpha LRP brass - RL16 - Hornady 140 ELDM - CCI 200 - 26" 1/8t barrel In my research, it looks like 40.8 gr...

    Gunsmithing Removing Badger Thruster Brake

    I just received a new build with a Badger Thruster on it. For the life of me, I cannot twist it off by hand. Badger mentions not to put anything through the ports to remove it. What is the best way to remove it without leaving pipe wrench marks or some other idiot marks?

    Redding Bushing 6.5CM....Alpha/Lapua and 140 ELD-M?

    Can someone measure a 6.5 CM round and tell me the outside neck dimension for Alpha brass stuffed with a Hornady 140 ELD-M? If you have Lapua brass as well, can you tell me that measurement too? I'm wanting to determine which Redding type S neck bushings I need. Thanks

    Left Handed Chassis...Which One?

    I'm building a 6.5 Creedmoor on a LH Defiance Deviant (swept handle). The barrel is a Hawk Hill (26") in a Marksman contour. I'm dizzy with the array of selection and choices related to chassis systems. I've always been a fiberglass stock fan but thought I'd try a chassis. I've been looking at...

    How many loads on Lapua .260 brass?

    How many loadings are folks getting on Lapua .260 brass? I'm running mine load as 42.6 gr with a Hornady ELD 140. Velocity is in the 2,860 fps range from a 28" barrel. I'm trying to determine what I can expect from a brass life standpoint.

    I'm looking for a node for the 155 Scenar in a 20" LRI .308. What is your charge using XBR 8208? Also, what kind of velocity can I expect? I'm using Winchester brass and CCI 200s.
