    Tikka Nitriding

    I'd eat a dog turd with enough Montreal on it! I mean seriously, I cut my waders off at the knees since the crotch blew out and run the boots around the property. If it's muddy i can roll them up right past my knee. Follow me for more redneck hacks. But seriously. Subbed in for some data. The...

    Ultralight/Compact .30 cal Hunting Suppressor

    I have a Scythe, ab raptor 10, and a dilligent wolfhunter which is a 6mm variant of the enticer S Ti. When comparing all of the factors, the Dilligent is the choice I would make again. Cost, sound, and weight being the top three factors.

    Just when I thought i couldn't be anymore redneck I read this thread about cooking oil on your action. Thanks guys.

    I'm in the same boat. Thinking about switching to easton as well.

    Fix it Sticks or Wheeler FAT wrench?

    You can't pussyfoot around or it gets that weird creep. Grip it and spin it hard. I've used a wheeler fat wrench for 5yrs and I have nothing bad to say. I let my buddy borrow it and it came back really messed up. I contacted wheeler and they sent me a brand new one for free.

    Fingers crossed that we cover the drop tests next week with JVB!

    700LA, M5 DBM, 6creedmoor, what mags?

    That's my bad man, I didn't realize that. Obviously i only have experience with the short action which using both mags with is a huge selling point. I wouldn't run it on a LA because of that. Looks like you're stuck with a typical M5 bottom metal if you want the ability to run 10rd mags.

    Kent Bismuth issue - always verify what you’re purchasing.

    I'll kep my $11/box hevi steel and $20/box Hevi Bismuth loads intact and act like they're exactly as advertised. I get where you're coming from though. It's not right to get lied to but I also agree that the weight matters.

    Considering downsizing to 6 cm from 7 PRC

    Maybe I'm stepping on mine hard but I'm close to 2900fps out of an 18" 6cm shooting 108 Bergers. Tough call but if you're prioritizing spotting shots easier, it's the way to roll for sure. You could also restock and reconfigure the 7prc but it will still be hard to spot.

    Build a rifle or buy a rifle? Left Handed

    I think you're on the right track OP. I was in the same boat and spent the money on two left handed "customs". Worth every cent. If you're gonna spend the money, get what you want.

    Am I stupid for wanting to cut/thread a cheap gun?

    I did the same thing to an axis I got to mess around with. Actually put a new stock and barrel on it for cheap. Check out Northland Shooter Supply for take off savage barrels. You can likely find a threaded one there for the same cost as getting yours cut and thread. That's what I did. Bedded...

    700LA, M5 DBM, 6creedmoor, what mags?

    Check out the UM bottom metal and mags. And to correct something, the hawkins bottom metal accepts their mags and all AICS mags. Just keep the greyboe bottom metal you have and run AICS mags. But you might not even need the spacer kit for the hawkins stuff. Gotta pick your poison. You're...

    Form struck someone’s nerve

    You're exactly right. I didn't mention those because it's even more telling that the question stands on its own legs without any extra caveats or "but....." statements. There are a boatload of factors that weigh into the benefit side of the conversation that were never discussed. I got hung up...

    Form struck someone’s nerve

    I don't know why this all started. I made a thread and pointed out something he said in a previous episode but JVB has been on a crusade lately. There's been a solid mention of small caliber hate for months in almost every episode. If you think about it, the majority of his paid sponsors have...

    Avery vs. JvB - Podcast Back and Forths

    Planning on culling some does in a couple weeks. Going to let my buddy shoot my 6 creed with 108 eldms and I'm going to try a 215 berger out of a 300prc. It will be cool to see the difference.

    700LA, M5 DBM, 6creedmoor, what mags?

    The hawkins hunter bottom metal is the one to get. You can run AICS or their hunter "flush" mags with it. I imagine their long action standard magazine would be the best fit. Go with the MDT AICS mags for the 5 and 10rd versions that you asked about. You might have to tweak the lips just a bit...
