Ugh, I forgot you ordered a Satern barrerl wildcard I really hope it comes through for you by 1st quarter 2008. Some guys on the Grendel forum waited 10+ months for a barrel, especially now since AA is ordering Saterns for their GSR rifle.

Can't wait.. I got 6 10-round mags.. couple hundred brass... and everything else waiting to go. This ought to make me a bit more competitive with the mag loaders to shave of a few seconds. Weight savings will be nice too.. but i'm wondering how the Magpul 93B stock will function in prone.

i thought you weren't interested in the build anymore, so it really shouldn't matter to you. since you withdrew yourself from participating, please don't participate. nayt in the end has nothing to worry about, cause i am garanteing all work and the parts 100%. meaning it's my pocketbook that is taking the risk. if you will stop hating, you can still participate. it's up to you. i am a reasonable man, and like i said before i have no ill will against you.

disclaimer to the public. there is no exchange of money being done here. it's simply a friend getting a rifle worked on by another friend with no exchange of money or other forms of payment. no business is being done here by any means. joe hernandez is not a gunsmith and is not gunsmithing as defined by the atf. joe, randall, and i are not acting as a business in anyway or pretending to be one.

got your pm and replied. yes, everything is all good and all is participating in the first SCPRC project.
this is going to be a fun project. the minimum thing i want to get out of this is to at least be able to accurize 700s within our group which would be totally cool. there is too much talent here to let it go to waste. |

Does he have a CNC machine by any chance? Maybe we can all "borrow" his machine and each make our own receivers under supervision No markings.. no serial numbers.. maybe just "SCPRC - Bones Brigade Custom." I'm just talking out of my butt.
So when does the first rifle get completed? I'm looking to get started on my 700 Long Action real soon! Say.. do you offer custom engraving? As for my testing.. I'll be doing it this coming weekend instead.. I had the 500 yard range to myself so hanging out at 100 yds wasn't going to happen. I got to shoot out to 600 yds. |

CNC machinary and programming takes some major dollars. It's done for commercial purposes. most likely, Joe and I are just going to be hobbyist gunsmith doing our own stuff. Mayby one day, we can open a shop. Issue is we need a FFL gunsmithing license to be legit and go into business unless we can get it approved at his workshop located in his residence which we are researching with the city right now. For now, we are just doing it for fun and for the sake to see if we can get it done. |

That would be cool. Buy our own block of stainless steel and "make" our own receivers.

I still can't get over the price of those stocks! I guess i'm a traditionalist and favor the McMillan stocks. The A4 has my attention when I decide to go full custom...

get the ior 3-18 ffp scope. it's not illuminated, but it's one hell of a scope for the money!

I concur with his assessment. I also have word that IOR will be making the 4-14x50 in FFP and mils but is about a year away.

i'm still going to reload, but i have to conserve. i dunno if i can blast freely like i did before. my 300-400 will be like cut in half, and will be substituted for .223 bolt action. i only make like 4k a month now. i used to make like 12k, and the last couple of years before 20-30k/month. i'm on a downward spiral. i can't pay all the bills at my current cash flow rate. my wife and i need to combine our income to barely make out without going into our savings. must conserve. if it gets any worse, i might have to go look for a real job! anyone need their lawn mowed? i work for reloading components. problem with real estate, feast or famine. i definitely see famine coming in real fast.
