    Mauser 257 roberts

    Gunsmithing Anyone ever build on a Remington 600 action?

    600's make great lightweight rifles, both custom and as is. They had a reputation for accuracy, most likely due to Remington's quality at the time they were built and the fairly heavy barrel taper. The actions are identical to XP-100's, and few, if any, 700 action accessories or parts will...

    Hinds Bipod

    Re: Hinds Bipod What I found good about them was: Installed in an Accurate Arms stock with aluminum bedding block. The legs slide up into the stock to be out of the way, but always available. The quality of machining and construction of the assembly.
