    What happens when a gun manufacturing company dies?

    Classic case of a good craftsman/poor business man. Never should have taken a $4000 job on an $800 gun without 75%-100% down before touching it. Hopefully the $4k education will serve him well.

    I'm pretty old but I know the difference between reply and reply all! But I now have all the email addresses of all the LE Rokstok customers. :D

    I think people that PAID in full, should get their stocks in the order they were paid for.

    Well they use these newfangled jet planes to move freight... As the story goes IIRC, the founder of Fedex, Fred Smith, got a "C" at Yale grad school on his paper with the idea for a transportation company. After serving with the USMC in Vietnam he started Fedex in 1971. According to Forbes...

    Cheap suppressor wrap

    For $25 I bought one from Weka. It is long enough to make 2 for my Scythe Ti. I wrapped it with vet wrap. It is a couple % of the total cost of my gun/suppressor/scope/other gear. :)

    Back up scope/ trainer options

    Wait, you "made the decision to sell off my other scopes", without a replacement in hand? Well anyway the easy answer is the 10x SWFA with side focus, in stock for $400.

    Blue Loctite Alternative??

    The barreled action I picked up from UM last week, had red paint on the trigger housing bolt. And a tube of Vibra-Tite in the UM ring box. Never heard of it before. I have been using red loctite on threads and black fingernail polish on screw heads for 10+ years with no issues. But I tried the...

    Not to be a smart ass. But you went to college, and don't know the difference between boulder and bolder??:ROFLMAO:

    6 UM or 6-7PRC?

    It would be really hard to quantify barrel life vs. a few grains less powder. To get your brass completely fireformed will typically take 3 fireings or so. I like FF loads to be around 90% of max. New ADG brass fired in my 30 Nosler doesn't need the shoulder moved back, until after the 3rd time...

    6 UM or 6-7PRC?

    I put it on the bullet, so no powder issues. Very little to none of the wax can touch the powder. I haven't observed any problems. I have used moly as well, the wax works better for this application.

    6 UM or 6-7PRC?

    I picked up my 6 ROKUM from UM last week. Adjusted the scope after the first shot and the next 10 went into 1.2". I'm using N565 w/ Berger 105's to start. I will be switching to 115 DTAC and/or 109 Eld's with N570. Very happy with the work UM did. As for your collapsed shoulders, I put some...

    Ultralight Custom Break Action Rifle

    Pre G2's are adjustable for creep and overtravel, but not pull weight. However, they are probably one of the best triggers on a factory gun there is. The G2's can be made much better. I have done a few, Mike Bellm of Bellm T-C's has springs and instructions on his web site. One of mine is a...
