If I decide to leave it "white" what is the best way to protect it? Is there a silicone wipe od oil to rub it down with before/after going into the field
In my research for building my custom rifle I am trying to decide between SS vs Moly. I am pretty sure that both barrel compositions will shoot better than I can. Do I have to "blue" CM? I think the black looks good in contrast to my SS action. I just dont want to worry about insane rust...
Just mailed off my action/barrel for the work to begin on my custom rifle stock. I will be using an accurate innovations stock, as I wanted wood, and I liked there aluminum bedding block. Wes at AI is unbelieveable at customer service and I have no doubt that the stock will be too. Now the...
