Introduction
 

Hello, folks.

I have been a member of "Snipershide" for several years under the same username.

Recently, I have became interested in subsonic gear and shooting. I ordered my first can a few weeks ago and am wanting to spec out a rifle in .300 Whisper.

I will be going over the different threads to help decide on an action. Would like to use a Remington action, but have heard of extraction problems.

If you folks have any information to give a noob, I am an empty cup.

I hear the Howa actions are ideal for this caliber. A member here named Spook has a decent amount of experience with both the action and the Blackout/Fireball caliber. I would have him do the build for you.

Howa is by far the best, spook is also! howa 1500 in 223 complete guns run about $320 new if you look on guns america or gun broker.

I have a remingtion 700 17 fireball action I used for my build this helped a lot with the extraction problems I had some feeding problems so I tried a CDi bottom metal with Ai223 mags and they feed like a champ.

Spoke to Spoook via private message. We are moving along.

thanks for taking time for the "new guy."

You will be pleased with the outcome with spook, great guy!

Hey friends
 

Found you on AR15.com, and I was interested in learning from another source. Not knocking AR15 - great forum, but learning from as many folks with similar interests is always a priority.

I work with inner city kids. John Steinbeck said, "Man (and woman) are the only varmint that sets their own traps and then steps in them." There is a lot to be said of the meaning of those words. I try to pass that on to many that really have self defeating problems, but it remains true for all.

That said, my passions are firearms and knifemaking. Lost my shop to the great Mississippi flooding. Hurt, but they are only possessions.

I have tons of stuff from shooting, blade making and survival work. I use survival work to help kids that have had to survive on the streets. It works if you follow up closely and get them out of the mode of thinking they have learned. Not an easy thing.

I shoot as much as I can. Ammo is expensive. I miss making knives.

I decided (one day) to find out what made a good knife. Then I found out how much they cost. Decided I would learn to make them instead of buying them. :smile:

Please say hey, as I am currently out of action because of a head on collision with a drunk dirver. What a time life can be! Rollacosters and a flat rail road now and then. Good Lord is always there!
