    building a budget rig...

    I know where this will start, so I want to squash a couple thoughts right away. Yes, i'm new to this board but not to the world of shooting. I'm new to centerfire, but have shot rimfire for a LONG time (20+ years). I've never owned a centerfire rifle until 2 weeks ago, and I am on a major...

    newbie needs help building rifle

    Need some recommendations on building a 300 wm?

    I'd like to build a 300 win mag or 300 wsm in a AICS 2.0 chasis. It will most likely see most of it's action at 600 yards but will shoot 1000 occasionally. I've built my share of gas guns but never a bolt gun. I wouldn't mind using a Rem 700 barreled action or a FN XBR barreled action. I'm open...

    Building an AR10 rifle

    Awhile back I bought a DPMS 308 complete lower from a guy here on the hide. I've been looking at options for finishing the build and I'm lost. I'd like it to look like the SR-25 or SASS, so I think a rail for the foregrip is good. I know I want it be a flat top so I can mount some quality...

    Building A Precision Receiver - Nemesis Arms

    As promised, a detailed look at a remarkable receiver build. Enjoy. The concept behind much of the Windrunner series is to eliminate the variables that, while individually can be small, when taken collectively, make up the majority of accuracy issues on any hyper accurate platform. Add...

    Building up A4 cheekpiece

    I have what I believe is a McMillan A4 on my gun, it was suggested to me that building up the stock for a higher cheekweld would be beneficial. So what are my options for doing so?
