Looks like an alpine hunter with different styling. Not sure anyone is going to notice much of a difference between the two functionally?

Has anyone handled one? How does it compare to other stocks you have used. Please mention the models in your comparison. Thanks!

I currently have a compact rifle and it balances just in front of the front (1/8inch) of front action screw. It is an ag privateer stock 20” Rem sporter contour barrel Terminus Apollo lite Hawkins hunter bottom metal Razor 3-15x42 lht. I’m considering another build and I’m seeking some...

Just wanted to bump this thread and see how everything turned out? I am in the same dilemma. Considering an ag stock and they are showing the m24 is the same as the proof sendaro or close enough.

I’m looking for recommendations on a stock that is comfortable to carry in the ready position but is also has a more vertical grip and is also comfortable to shoot in some offhand positions. In planning a bare rifle in the 8.5lb range so I still want to to be comfortable to carry compared to...

Short barrel will need to watch velocity at impacts. I’d be looking at a 6.5prc with a 20” barrel. I don’t see the point in a barrel shorter than that on a long range hunting rifle when you’ll have so much space to handle it. A bush gun sure. My 6.5cm has a 20” barrel and maintains 1800...

The privateer is a shorter stock. It suits a rifle awesome with a shorter barrel in my opinion. I have a 20” barrel on mine and it’s great. One thing with ag stocks is you may need to request texture if it’s an option. My stock is completely smooth. I’ve sort of grown to like the...

Lots of guys look into good cup and core bullets for long range hunting. Deer and antelope dont take fancy bullets to kill. Who wants to shoot an expensive accubond or barnes for practice when a gamechanger or eldx is about half the cost and are excellent choices for dual purposes.

The razor checks my boxes. Sfp is important to me for good low power visibility reticles without needing illumination. Hold for wind with the reticle and dial elevation. My concern with all vortex products is the lack of quality consistency. I believe they had many problems with other scopes...

Whats everyones thoughts on the vortex razor hd lht? Moa and mil 3-15x42?

Hey, great post. I am just looking into this for my 6.5cm that is being built. I am interested in cup and core bullets to keep the cost down for hunting. It seems the Berger bullets are roughly the same costs, regardless of whether they are hunting or target specified. I am looking at their...

Thanks for feedback everyone. The reason I asked is two fold. I am looking for a short action cartridge for a custom hunting gun with a 20" barrel. My ideal cartridge is a 7mm08 for its balance of velocity, sd, bc, diameter and low recoil. Wish it was more popular! I live in an area where...

Thanks for feedback. I guess the whole point of the topic is basically, if the bullet is the same design, with a similar SD, travelling at the same speed, penetration can be assumed to be similar as well, even if the calibers of the bullets vary. People probably considered a 180 cup and core...

With all the 6.5mm bullet hype, assuming the bullet is the same design, traveling the same speed, with similar SD, can we assume penetration will be similar With different calibers 140 6.5 accubond vs 180gr .308 130gr tsx in 6.5 vs 165gr .3089 Other than a larger wound channel, can the 6.5...

Hi, looking for some feedback on what guys think for a do all/lighter weight rifle. I am finalizing the parts list. 28oz Apollo/Axiom lite action 24oz Ag Composites Privateer Stock Hawkins BDL Triggertech Trigger 22" Rem Sporter or Magnum Sporter profile??? What profile would you choose and...
