I have a bunch of parts laying around not being used. If I put em all together could I sell for $3500? That’s about what I I think I would need to make it worth my while. Honest feedback wanted.
Defiance Anti XM
PVA Osprey 6.5prc 7.5T 3B 20” 5/8-24
Defiance BDL bottom metal

I have a buddy pulling his hair out trying to get a rifle to shoot more accurately when it’s already doing a pretty darn good job. He’s getting 10 shot groups of about 1.25 MOA and thinks he needs to cut that down to .5 in order to shoot longer range. I’ve been telling him he’s all wet.
I...
Trying to keep things easy. Rather than going prefit, or chamber and fit by gunsmith, and having to order and wait from multiple places. Anyone know who sells barelled actions on Defiance receivers? Specifically an XM length receiver.
Defiance AnTi XM inlet, BDL bottom metal. Bartlein #3 barrel channel. Carbon shell. Came off a Maverick build from Alamo Precision Rifles. Nice combo between sporter and vertical grip. Slight palm swell. Has small pic rail on forend and swivel studs front and rear. Very light and stiff...
Done plenty of bedding jobs, but never an AnTi. The only thing that’s weird is that hollowed out recoil lug. I don’t want any mechanical lock. There isn’t enough surface area to stick tape to to seal off the hollow part. Modeling clay makes a giant mess when it gets mixed with epoxy. How do...
I’ve used marine Tex for bedding compound before, but on black stocks. Got a brown one to do. Is it possible to get white and dye it brown? If yes, with what?
What have you guys done for tow hooks/recovery points on your 3rd gen Tundras?
Such an embarrassing oversight by Toyota, but I know there are aftermarket options. I like the idea of the AFE’s because they are truly bolt on, but it looks like actually using them would rip the front bumper off...
ISO, a couple of caplock traditional muzzleloaders. Right hand. Must be in good shape, especially the bore.
1. TC Hawken .54 cal, percussion. 1:48 twist 28" bbl.
2. Lyman Great Plains rifle. .50 cal percussion. 1:60" twist 32" bbl.
I just bought a pile of .270 reloading equipment off a friend who's dad died and he isn't a reloader. A bunch of new Win brass, standard Redding dies and a couple boxes of Barnes TTSX. I've reloaded and shot about 50 rounds worth so far, over a few sessions. About 1 in 8 or 10 rounds has...
Any have an issue not being able to get these clear in low light? Mine are absolutely terrible. In even slightly low light, I cannot get a focused image to save my life. It’s just blurry and distorted. I’ve re set the diopters several times. I know I shouldn’t expect the usual EL clarity...
I’m strongly considering cashing in 15 points in one of the Northwest units of Wyoming this year. Should I be legitimately concerned about die off as a result of last winter? I know it was real bad south of there but my understanding is that it wasn’t as bad around Cody. Am I right or wrong? I...
I have a little 12” 20v DeWalt and it sucks. Not enough balls to cut through oak. I need something better and more powerful. Before someone says it, I already have a big, gas pro-grade 24” Husqvarna. I just need something that rides in the truck for occasional light cutting. I’m not...
how do I keep my fat from smearing? I ran the partially frozen meat and fat through the course grind plate first. Added seasonings, mixed thoroughly by hand, and then ran through the fine plate. Then I removed the cutting plate and put the stuffing plate and stuffer tube on. Shoved everything...
Is there a DIY manner in which to trim aluminum bedding pillars for the proper height?
The bedding and pillar installation I am totally comfortable with, but I don’t own a mill or any other kind of complex machining equipment to shave down one for proper height.
I also lack any decent...
Looking for something 3-9xish, I think, but already have 30 mm rings I’d like to use. Needs to be dead nuts reliable. Unlikely to dial, but wouldn’t mind a simple and clean holdover reticle to shoot out to 300ish with a 100 zero. Low power reticle viz is critical. SFP preferred for that...
Anybody ever used wicking Loctite on scope mount fasteners? I was thinking about this, with the debate over whether Loctite on threads changes torque values meaningfully (FWIW, I do not think it’s a big deal and I’ve never had a problem personally) I thought why not torque dry, and then apply a...
