I really don't want to start a Creedmoor (Manbun) thread, but I'm wanting a fast twist 6mm, for deer pronghorn, and coyotes. I'm thinking either in a 20" threaded for my suppressor barrel, would make a nice lightish rifle. I have a lot of components for the .243 since I've had one for nearly...

Okay, actually an AR pistol build question. I'm wanting a 7.5-10" pistol with arm brace in .300 BLK mainly to shoot suppressed. I have a couple of buddies that are into assembling AR rifles so I got help on that front. I'm looking at PSA pistol kits and for the money they seem to be the best...

So I've bought a Silencer Co Sparrow and while it is being held hostage I need to get a couple of my rimfire rifles threaded. Looking at the price to thread a barrel I'm thinking buying a replacement for my 10/22 might be the answer. I've rebarreled a few Savage rifles and the 10/22 looks...

Looking at getting a suppressor and just wondering how much shoulder do I need for a direct thread suppressor with 5/8X24 threads. I have a couple rifles already threaded as such, and have a couple others that I want to thread. Both barrels are .660" at the muzzle so I'll roughly have .0175 of...

I bought this rifle a few years ago, because a .223 M70 Winchester is a pretty rare configuration. The plain stock with 12.5" LOP was always something I wanted to change. Anyway I got a FWT take off from a buddy who accidentally bought this stock for his .270 Win and was bummed when he...

I'm a fan of the 1/4" bore rifles especially the .250 And .25-06. However, I've been leaning harder on the 6mm cartridges for long range target and varmint shooting. I found this page today and they are offering a high BC 131 grain bullet for .257 calibers. I hate that it's only one bullet...

Friday Nov 16th we took our daughter down to Oklahoma for our annual white tail trip. My daughter only hunted 3 days as we took a day off to go visit her grandmother in McAlester on Sunday. My daughter killed her buck on Saturday evening throwing her plan to kill two does first and then...

First off special thanks to the guys that made this possible, to Dave, Aric, Cody, Ted, and Scott as without your help must daughter wouldn't have been sucessful! Due to family emergencies earlier this year I was out of vacation and personal days to take her, so these adopted family members...

I'm posting this for my good buddy tedthorn, he and his wife were out hunting my families property for a pronghorn buck for Ted's wife. I wasn't able to make it out due to work, but they managed to find a great buck. I've not seen many bucks of this caliber in my lifetime.

I'm just posting the pictures, all I know is it's a Mark-X and Hooligan1 had a blank duplicated and he did the final fit and finish of the stock. Great job my friend!

Anyone using these? I have some property that I need to protect that can't be stored onsite for a couple of weeks. So short of hiring a security guard, for when I'm not there I think this would be the best option against theft and vandals. I don't have any experience with any game camera but...

I have a HVA 1640 action and Albright trapdoor butt plate that I'm using for the basis of this build. I've already added a Dakota 3 position safety and have a Timney trigger that'll I'll be using as well in this build. I don't have a barrel yet but I'm thinking of using a M70 FWT contour...

I'm on a quest to lighten up my daughter's elk hunting gear, as two years ago I watched her quit on her first hunt. She just wan't mentally and physically ready for this hunt in my opinion, but at 13 years old her biggest problem was mental. She's now 15 and better prepared for it and she...

Anyone handled the Ruger Precision .22 LR? My daughter has expressed an interest in learning to shoot long range and I'm thinking it might be a great teaching tool. We have a local 300 yard range, we can shoot at within five miles. Because of terrain, buildings, and neighbors I'm only good to...

Spent four days in Oklahoma with my buddies, wives, and our children. I didn't hunt I just spent time sitting in the blind with my daughter, which is what I love to do. I had planned on getting a tag if my daughter tagged out early, but it took her all four days to fill her tag so I decided to...

Got the engraving done yesterday, should have it soon! Sorry for the picture, my Smith just sent that too me last night. 6X45mm 1-7 TWIST Load development and target pictures starting soon.

Would have posted this sooner but we've been busy doing things. Opening morning we found this buck on my Dad's property, we put three stalks on this guy until we were able to get a good shot on him. My Daughter (14) has been using for the last four years a M700 Classic in .300 Savage with an...

Had some action work done to a Savage and the serial number was milled off. The gunsmith that did this restamped the serial number on the bottom of the action. I took the barreled action in to get it Ceracoated and the cartridge stamped on the barrel. I asked if they could re-engrave the...

I've been saying I'd never build another rifle on a Savage action but here I am going down the rabbit hole again. One problem all the parts are too heavy! The rifle's a 6X45 (6mm-223) what do I need a 9lb rifle for? So I tore it all back down and sent it to Marty at Twisted Barrel to...

I'm trying to install a barrel on a Savage rifle, no big deal I've done it several times. The thing that is different this time is I'm using an Accustock, the recoil lug isn't staked so it doesn't use the alignment notch on the action. I'm wondering if the parallel side recoil lug alignment...
