    Custom 308

    I had the fortunate opportunity to have a new build done. I had close friend agreed to build this for me and my newborn son (I'll let him reply if he chooses to take credit, as he is somewhat retired and I'm humbled he agreed to build it for us). A brief history about this rifle. It started...

    Got tired of shooting F Class in open with my 260 just completed an M40A3 for 600yr FTR

    Shooting my Nesika 260 in open class sucked. I also got tired of hiring b.s. from my buddy. Being left handed its tough to build a rifle a matter of a few weeks. I put a feeler out on the hide for a McMillan stock and within a day I received a reply. In a few days I was the owner of Badger M5...

    New to LR shooting

    Hey everybody, I'm brand new to the world of long range and precision shooting. I work at a small LGS and after a few of our customers came in and ordered certain rifles I've been bitten by the bug. I'm on a very tight budget so my first rifle is likely to be a Howa 1500 with a 22" barrel and...

    Ordered up my second McMillan stock on Thursday much to my wifes chagrin. Spoke to Ryan twice during the day with different questions and guidance from him.

    McMillan A4 stock fit a Remmington 700PSS?

    I have an IBA TPR which is built on the 700PSS platform and tweaked some. Link: http://www.deathfromafar.com/htm/08_iba_weaponsys_tacticalprecision.shtml The HS stock that comes with it does not fit my hand very well, and its non-adjustable. I wanted to upgrade to the McMillan A3 - A5 style...

    McMillan stock differences?

    I was originally under the impression that each new model was superior to all the older ones... but I keep seeing a bunch of people favoring other McMillan models. What are the pros/cons of them all? If it matters... I'm 5'10", have medium sized hands... and plan on mostly shooting at distances...

    Gunsmithing Mcmillan Butt Pad install tutorial?

    I have done one, was not all that pleased with it, but it was passable. I would love to see someone else's method, or just hear some tips. I drilled into the back of the stock and epoxied in some pieces of dowel rod to accept the screws for pad. Then I taped around the stock and sanded it...

    KMW vs McMillan cheek piece?

    I was wondering the weight difference between the KMW cheek piece and the two thumb screw McMillan (not the thumb wheel one)? I know the KMW is steal and the McMillan is aluminum, but wanted to know how much more the KMW weighed? (I would like to keep the rifle as light as possible.) Also if...

    Problem McMillan A5 Stock on Savage Rifle

    I took my rifle apart today because I thought the accuracy had diminished (but still pretty good). I noticed that the rear screw hole was cracked right down the middle of the rifle from the magazine well back to the trigger area and it’s all the way through. I guess I had over tightened the...
