    Help the Marine Corps decide on a new caliber for their sniper rifles

    Did the 308 stop killing people in the last 75 years? A long action cartridge will always have its disadvantages due to longer action cycling times and you simply cant carry as many bullets around. In the field you can hold more 308 in your pockets with smaller magazines than you can 300 WM or...

    Do you prefer a hunting rifle with a detachable mag?

    I like detachable mostly because it is so cold up here that trying to fight with blind mags, even hinge plates in the cold going in and out of the truck in the morning and after the hunt really sucks.

    Canadians where do you get your barrels?

    Get on Canadiangunnutz' forum. Look for Mysticplayer. He imports barrels and everything else you need. He is on this forum from time to time too. Pacnor also imports to Canada if you wanna avoid the middle man.

    1-8 or 1-10 twist for .223?

    I had a 1:8 with a 27" bbl that shot 40g noslers well. It also shot 69 SMKs and 75 Amax well. It didn't like the 80 Bergers tho. Would't stabilize for the life of me.

    stock spiderweb effect

    I've done it with a sponge brush. A cheapo 79 cent one is perfect. Pick a few small holes in the tip of the brush and dip it in your paint. Lift the sponge brush over the stock and as the paint dribbles off it move it around to achieve your desired effect. Try it out on a piece of paper 1st of...
