How many smoke detectors or fire extinguishers do you have in your home? Implying that someone is afraid of their shadow because they are prepared is really a dick move. just sayin

I’d second the Daniel Defense.308. I have two, great gun that comes with some extras that I’d end up converting too anyway. It’s a little heavy at 8.6 lbs but slimmer than most AR 10 rifles. I know the question specifically asked about battle rifle but I mostly agree with others who have stated...

I’ve seen stocks cracked and recoil lugs bent. They will definitely do damage on a heavy recoiling rifle if it’s not able to slide.

My dad started taking me hunting with him when I was about 6 years old. One of my earliest memories was when my mom ragged him enough about it he brought her along with us. While sitting in a makeshift blind archery hunting, about 5-6 deer came into view feeding while walking by us left to right...

I started out with Rocky’s, could not get more than a year out of a pair. And their customer service was lousy.Switched to Danner Pronghorn, I absolutely loved that boot but found they did not last more than 3 years, even with religious Sno Seal treatments. The last two pair of boots I bought...

Apparently also on Facebook and other magazines as well.

September of last year, Field and Stream ran an article on MDT making a 88” rifle barrel chambered in 308 Win to test velocity and corresponding changes as they shortened it. Very interesting read. Google it, it is worth the 5 minutes.

Maybe someone else here has seen this before or has had a similar experience. In 1993-1994 I was enrolled in school in Colorado Springs. Some of my classmates and I used to head up to he mountains on the weekends and do some shooting/target practice. One guy had an SKS and a AK. He had picked up...

I just picked up my latest purchase yesterday, I filed old fashioned paper in March. I had a friend and a second person I know of, filed efile and only received theirs a month earlier than I did, so the efile is really hit or miss. In my opinion, ATF should take them in the order they are...

I am not clear on who is a year wait. Hart Barrels in New York or RW Hart and sons the rifle builders in Nescopeck, PA. They are two different companies. I thought that Hart barrels only manufactured and sold barrels, I didn’t think they did any chambering or installation.

Darryle, I don’t recognize that device. Would you mind elaborating on it? I am currently using the magneto speed riflekuhl and although it works and is nice and compact, it takes longer than I like thanks, Jim

I understood it differently, that the 181 might not stabilize in a 1/10 twist which is why Hammer came out with the 180. It’s not only the weight, but the CG and weight distribution. I was just curious how they worked for you, I tried the 180 but did not have a lot of luck with them. I had the...

Hello, just out of curiosity, can I ask why you are using the two different HH bullets when both 30 cal rifles are the same twist rate? I thought the 181 like a slightly faster twist.

Yes, you are right. It is not a BAD lever. Accomplishes the same thing tho, only better. It doesn’t have the amount of slop in it that the clamp on style BAD lever does. They both allow manipulation of bolt catch/release from either side of the lower.
