The "Newly registered" group is really to weed out the spammers. I am satisfied that you aren't one, so I removed you from that group. Post away.
Righteous move.

I have already lowered the requirement to 10 posts from 25 and usually remove the people asking if can verify them which is an easy process. However I don’t read everything here, so unless it is in a thread I read or a PM or mail request, I don’t get to it.

I was just commenting on how I like the way you trust your own good judgment. Rules are fine, but mature people should not be blind to using judgment. Only brainless bureaucrats follow rules without exception. So it was totally a compliment on you.

I took it as a compliment as well. I was just telling the step I took lately in this regard and just telling members in that group that if they want to get out of it sooner, they should contact me because I don't read it all.

Here's a Bula XM21 I built with a heavy Kreiger bedded into a McMillan. One of the best shooters I've built.

This was 5 rounds at 100 yards in it's first range trip.
Image

This is a double-lugged LRB M25 with a 20 MOA rail and a heavy Lothar-Walther barrel I built last year. It's the most work I've ever put into a rifle. Sub-MOA.

Image

Front lug sandwiched between the barrel face and shoulder...

Bedding...

Image

I also do modern work...
Image

And Garands...
Image

Image

And the occasional AR...
