Nikon makes some great scopes. I have heard they are getting out of the optics business. I have 13 rifles with 6 Nikon scopes everything from a simple buck master 3-9 x40 up through a 6-18 *42 5 . Love them all. There were on sale at Europtic Black 6-25 FX1000’s for $488 and I was really...
I have a 264 LBC rifle one 20” and one 24”. . I did a lot of research and seriously though about making a 6mm AR or AR turbo.. A 6mm AR turbo slinging a 105 Berger at 2850 fps gets you to 1,190 yds transonic and 1315 yds supersonic at sea level. A 264 LBC 24” barrel can sling a 130 gr RDF at...

I love my Grendel actually it’s a 264 LBC , any hoot currently I have two BHW barreled uppers . One a 20” Medium contour one is a 24” semi bull. They shoot great and they load easy. I use AR Comp, Power Pro Varmit, and CFE 223. and load everything from 107 SMKs, to 123 SST’s, 129 SST’s, 130...
I hand load as well. Problem is I have so many hobbies time between shooting fest is usually long and I have a lot of rifles to feed and a lot of calibers to load for. I’m not broke yet. I am working in that direction [emoji23]

I have two 6.5 Grendel gas guns. Love them as they are. Never thought about going to a 6.5 Grendel bolt. But everything I love about the round would only transfer to a bolt gun. Got me thinking. That is dangerous. I may need another gun safe. [emoji16]

I started buying my first AR 15 back in 2012 only had previously owned a bolt hunting rifle in 270 win. Any hoot first rifle was a Loki weapon systems 16” light profile with Magpul furniture. They have since gone out of business. I believe they sold some rifles without sending them to an FFL...

Sometimes I feel we should offer a AA style forum area where you could get support for the addiction we all have. [emoji848]

Yes sounds like extractor is letting go with the slightest angle off center. Luckily on standard 700 bolts the is easily replaced. On 700 magnums .532 face the extractor is built in the face. I built a custom 700 la action receivers BD barrel for a 338 wi Mag. When I went to check action this...
I was perusing the internet myself and I was thinking I have lots of rifles lots of calibers but you know maybe for Christmas I’ll pick up a 50 BMG. Just for fun. I showed my wife a pic of one she looks me in the eyes David” no more rifles. I said to myself that was a definite “NO”. So screw...
Bullet weight is good , but best is accuracy. Putting the bullet where it counts. The 150 ABLR or even a 150
Owner point will do their job if they hit where you want them to.
