Thanks for the advice. So you don't think that the "running in" of the recoil lugs in the barrel could be a problem? I hope I can get the gel coat repair kit here in Germany. I already tried to contact McMillan, but I didn't get an answer so far. Maybe I just have to give them a call.

Hello I noticed that on my SSG3000 (McMillan stock) the bolt handle doesn't touch the action when I close it. Instead it touches the cut out of the stock. I can see that the gel coat of the stock is worn off at some spots. I guess I should address the problem as I heard it can negatively affect...

Hi I need to choose between the RSR WSM action and the 7000s for a new rifle. I want to use it as a carry-varmint rifle, so I'm concerned about the weight. Now when ich compare the RSR WSM and the 7000s, the surgeon weighs 1.85# and the lawton 1.6#. But when i look at both actions i would...

Yeah it's really a good scope and maybe the 3-9x33 EFR will gather a little less light, but i only use the rifle for target practicing and 50 yards. And the 3-9 wont make much diffrence there. The only thing that concerns me is that it's really a nice rifle and now i think that the 3-9x33 (...

Hi Here's a pic of my Anschütz with a Leupold 4-12x40AO. I consider switching to the 3-9x33 EFR. I think the 4-12 looks to bulky and kinda spoils the nice rifle and i had to mount it way forward cause it has a bigger eye relief. That makes it look somehow strange on the rifle. I only use it for...

Here are some pics of my Long Range rig in its natural habitat It's a Sauer SSG 3000 with a Hensoldt (Zeiss subsidiary for LE scopes) 4-16x56 SF (second focal) mounted with an EAW rail. At first I didn't want to use it for hunting puposes but as i was not satisfied with a M03 i had (sold it)...

Lilja Thanks for your input so far! I just found this rifle 300 RUM A-Bolt, McMillan Stock, Lilja #5 :eek:. The Barrel is a Lilja #5 and that contour looks pretty much like it would fit perfectly my needs. Looks like a great Barrel. Maybe a stupid question but hows the quality of Liljas...

Weight Hm ok actually I'm tending to the #3100 do you think it'll make the rifle too heavy? That's the weight i figured out so far: Action 1.6 lbs Barrel 3100 fluted 4 lbs Manners MCS-T Ultralight 2.1lbs Magazine Bedding and trigger 0.7lbs Which would make the rifle about 8.4 lbs. With...
