Are you accounting for the extractor riding over the rim? Not just after the extractor has seated over the case rim. Depending on the extractor, caliber, bolt nose counterbore, and any relief cut into the counterbore the extractor can hit the face of the barrel as the extractor try’s to snap...

Well ABC News did say the Dems need to “cleanse“ the population of Trump supporters. Didn’t the Nazi’s try cleansing a population once?

Take a pic of the bottom metal and the stock inlet. Tac Ops used Williams and Remington mostly, they work the same but there are slight differences that could be hanging you up.

I read some of their post. Some scary stuff.

stock doesn’t hold the box the box is sandwiched between the bottom metal and receiver. Tac Ops cut the stocks to use different bottom metal so this may be your issue but if you’re going to a mag system then it’s a moot point now.

What bottom metal and what model return stock? Put the box into the receiver then the entire thing into the stock. Then install the bottom metal If you have a original USMC M40 return stock you may have other issues and would need more info to help.

PM sent.

Do not use the barrel as a guide to lap. Do not use a fired case to lap. Do not lap with the firing pin assembly and trigger installed. Do not lap with ejector installed. Get and use a lapping fixture or some way to apply even pressure to the bolt while lapping. When done correctly it should...

Didn’t say it was, in fact I see no difference In reamer life. Dial in the barrel at the lead on throat you will almost always need to pre bore to guarantee the chamber isn‘t out of round at the chamber mouth.

I don’t do pre drilling and or boring any longer. The technique I use to dial in the barrel I found it didn’t same me any time and I found no major difference in my carbide reamer wear and the chambers were always straight. Depending on how you dial in your barrels the drill bit following the...

HSS is not ideal but will work. Start paying a little extra and get the carbide readers you will thank yourself. I think you just got a barrel that is soft and gummy. It happens and I‘ve experienced the same with some stainless barrels. Call this a learning experience and keep moving forward.

You might have said but is this a carbide reamer? If it is try increasing your speed to about 120. Carbide likes to cut at faster speeds. Like I said it‘s a learning thing. You could absolutely be cutting a barrel that is a little different. I’ve cut a few stainless barrels over my time that’s...

Yes or he is letting the reamer and or the barrel get too hot during the cut.

Depends on the caliber but a good rule of thumb is until the flute channels fill up with chips or heat starts to build or I feel a change in resistance. When I first start the chamber I keep feeding until I feel heat build up in the barrel, most of the reamer is outside the barrel and chips...
