Question about barrel nut on Model 10

[J.Baker]

Actually... I'm not a big fan of the thing. They could have made it half that size (length-wise of the knob itself) and rolled it down a bit to help clear the scope bell. As it is, it sticks out too far and catches on everything.

Someone who actually sees the light! I've been trying to tell these guys that for years, but none of them ever listen. They all like their bolt handles to double as kick-stands I guess. LOL

I am perfectly happy with a normal bolt handle.


The larger round knob on the Varmint type is fine as well but I have been opening bolts for 55 years or so that had smaller heads just fine.

Beer Barrel for looks only.

Kind of like fins on the cars in the 50s, looks finally got out of hand .

Absolutely agree.
I only want a bolt knob, not a screwdriver handle.
But, several of my fellow shooters think they're the greatest thing since smokeless powder.
Some, but not all, are the same people who will spend two weeks planning the paint scheme for their rifle, and two hours developing loads.
For those who like them, -great. Enjoy.

Yea, fine with me, kind of he whatever, if you want to have a bun on your head and do public yoga, ok as well.

You won't find one on mine, not that I have enough hair or one anymore anyway but not back in the day either.

I've already got a kickstand on the Ducati, I don't need one on my bolt gun...
