From talking with my gunsmith the last couple days, we decided the best route is just to install the hawkins m5 bottom metal into the m5 inlet manners stock I have, and sell the old scout bottom metal. Otherwise it takes a bit of messing around to make the scout metal fit a standard m5 inlet stock

Is this what you're looking for ? They show a 223 rem mag option. https://hawkinsprecision.com/product/hunter-magazine/

I'll post a before and after picture when this is finally done

Hello all. I've been messing around with my Ridgeline Scout in 308win for a couple years now. It's been my do-all under 300yds truck gun. I've been happy with it. I recently decided to replace the factory stock with a Manners pro hunter. I was assured that this rifle has M5 bottom metal. Bought...

I have a metric ton of brass for 7mag so if I make the switch to tinker , someone will be getting a deal on it 😁

I've been reading up quite a bit on here. From what I can tell, it boils down to it not being any better/different than a well loaded 7rm shooting 3100, but some people just love the new cartridge train. Just didn't know if one of you smart fellas would shed light on something I hadn't read...

Hello all. I'm always buying / selling / trading gear & rifles. Always interested in trying something new to tinker. As the rest of you surely have , I now hear constant talk about 7prc being the latest & greatest. I started to do some research to find out for myself. I just can't nail down why...

Looks to be 7.62 nato manufactured by Metallwerk Elisenhütte and 8x57 made by sellier & bellot. Neither are super common at our local small range, so it was a strange thing to see. I'll just clean up and sell. All of it looks pretty fresh

So they're German manufactured. Nato crosshair. Anyone have a clue what caliber or weapon they came out of? 94D0001 ? Thanks for the crimp heads up! I won't get in a hurry with them. Probably just clean then and sell em cheap. I don't need them

Hello all. Hoping to stir up one of the many reloading wizards on here to identify some brass I was just given. I am familiar with the 8x57. Never owned one, or shot one, but I'm familiar. The other one, I have never seen before & a cursory Google search has come up empty. Any ideas what it is ?

I did some load development for a Kimber Adirondack in 7-08 with an 18" barrel. Based on what I saw, I don't think you'll have any problems running the 16" with or without a can on the ruger. I mainly run the silencerco omega 30. Whitetail inside of 300 yards is an easy task for the 7-08. Pick...
