Sizing die woes

Having some issues loading for my 6.5 AR10. Loading ammo to 2.800 COAL, I have a criterion barrel that simply will not chamber All the way with my reloads. It used to fine but now it doesn’t. I suspect my die is not sizing the brass down enough, as factory ammunition chambered fine.

All the rounds fit in my delta 5 pro but they won’t chamber the last .10 inches of the case in my AR10. They get stuck to the point I have to actually pry the bolt back with something to get it unstuck if they don’t fire. If fired they extract fine. Also the brass looks scratched up tremendously.

I’m using hornady match grade 6.5 dies. I had not had this problem with my other 18 inch barrel from criterion, I even sent this barrel in to see if it maybe needed to be reamed out a little more and they said it was within tolerance. Headspaced, bedded it and gave me a free bolt. I ran 5 rounds through it after I returned from the range of standard hornady 140gr BTHP and it cycled fine working the charging handle which leads me to believe my dies aren’t sizing correctly. Anything else I can do to check? Magazines were fine and the COAL was good on all rounds IMG_8484.jpeg

Optics WTS NEW Kahles 3-28i DLR SKMR 4+ with Left Windage

UPDATE - SOLD

This the newly released Kahles 3-28i DLR scope with Left Windage. It is brand new in the box.

I know few people have had a chance to see this scope but it has a huge field of view. Over 24 mils field of view at 20 power, and just over 20 mils at 25 power. With clarity at least as good as its predecessor the 5-25i DLR, it is a no brainer upgrade. I switched and won two back to back matches In the PRS this year.

There’s not a lot out there for price benchmarking but I believe based on its MSRP $4800, Market Price $4300, and overall quality, I have a good price set here. Realistic offers please.

NEW UPDATED PRICE: $3500 plus shipping
(Previous: $3700, Previous Previous: $3800 local, or $3850 shipped. Insurance extra.)

In need of KRG Bravo chassis guidance

Hi there,
First post here, but in desperate need of guidance.
Been outta the shooting loop for about 15 years, and with my recent retirement from work, it’s time to get back into the shooting sports.
I come from a strong full auto and AR platform background, but want to expand my bolt gun horizons.
My question for the pro’s…..
I have a Remington 700 Police 308 with a 26” heavy barrel. It’s all stock with no mods. It’s ADL with a hinged opening plate on the bottom for easy unloading that engages with a small button on the trigger guard.
I want to swap the factory stock/chassis out for a KRG Bravo stock, but not sure if it’ll work since my rifle doesn’t use mags, and the Bravo is set up for mags.
Can I just remove the hinged plate on the bottom and install the Bravo….. then add a mag? Or will this idea need a lot of custom fitting to make it work. Hope my question makes sense and isn’t too scatterbrained. I’ll enclose a few pics of the bottom of the rifle just in case I’m not clear with my description.
Thanks in advance for any help

Trench Gun Madness

Well, after reading some history, I once again became intrigued by the Duck Bill Spreader Ithaca Model 37 used by the Navy SEAL's in Vietnam. One thing lead to another and I've spent the last month buying every cheap piece of crap shotgun off of the internet and restoring them to Trench Gun magnificence.
DSCN4836.JPG


First, and foremost, The Ithaca Model 37 with Duckbill Spreader. Designed for and used by the Navy SEALS in Vietnam in response to their request for a shotgun that would spread shot horizontally for a bigger kill area.

DSCN4837.JPG


I fabricated the Duckbill Spreader and Magazine extension, among other things. Finished in my proprietary Parkerized Cerakote finish.

DSCN4838.JPG


Before and after:

Next I built a Stevens 520 trench Gun. The Stevens has the smoothest action of any shotgun I've used. Real old school craftsmanship, everything is made of either steel or wood.

DSCN4839.JPG


Before and after:

stevens 520 collage.jpg


Winchester 1897 I literally build from scrap parts I had laying around.
DSCN4840.JPG


Remington model 11 with Cutts compensator
DSCN4841.JPG



And just for some history, the infamous Harrington and Richardson "Special Forces Shotgun". After much investigation, and with help from SirH, we found this to be the real deal, made for Special Forces to be given to Montagnards in Vietnam.

And finally, as a counterpoint, my NFA registered SBS. Lots of effort to get this to work Zhukov folding stock. I had to manufacture a trunnion to attach the stock and get the angle right so that the stock could be folded and have the gun still function due to its' reciprocating charging handle. The right side folder also allows for the attachment of the AK side rail optic mount. The charging handle had to be fabricated also.
