    Need a new AR-15 trigger

    Same here. These are all I ever build my guns with. If you wait for the holidays you can pick up Geissele SSA-E (2-stage) triggers for 170-180 bucks at Palmetto, AR Discounts and Primary Arms. Brownells occasionally sells 'em for ~ $190 during the same holiday sales but you get their...

    mitutoyo digital caliper- Are they really worth it?

    My career involved partially involved making both prototype and production high precision gizmos and Mitutoyo was the go-to for all aspects of hand-held quality control measurements. When I retired, one of my friends presented me with a 70th Limited Anniversary Set including both calipers and...

    Gunsmithing X-Caliber barrels

    I understand this was posted a little over 4 years ago, but this is well worth bringing up again. Excellent considerations which are often overlooked.. Thanks Bohem. Is it possible for you to clean up chambers and turn a bowl of turd into an acceptable cake? What's the name of your company...

    Why the hatred for savage?

    Back in the 90s I had a Savage 112BVSS chambered in 22-250. Didn't do a single modification to it and it shot <0.5 MOA with factory ammo. I recall the action wasn't as smooth as other bolt guns, but I've never had a need for fast racking...so feed and ejection didn't pose a real problem for...

    Pacific Tool & Gauge drama unfolding

    I purchased a reamer for my 338 RUM build from PTG. It shattered and close inspection showed material defects. After sending it back, PTG acknowledged this and stated I'd get a refund. After numerous follow up calls to them, and many promises by them, I finally was reimbursed ... 17 months...
