Gunsmithing doI need to bed the stock
This. I might shoot it first just so I could see the before/after difference, but I've never known a good bedding job to hurt anything, so I would bed it no matter how well it shoots initially. To me there's no such thing as "accurate enough" until I have a rifle that would be semi-competitive...- Hazarmaveth

Gunsmithing Machining...can it be self-taught?
I'm currently working as a CNC machinist. Nobody ever taught me any of this stuff, but I know what I'm doing just as well as the two guys at the shop who went to school for it. Most of our programming is done freehand on the shop floor, and I'm usually the one that gets the jobs that need tricky...- Hazarmaveth

Cheytac Intervention
You do not want to deal with CheyTac. They don't make anything for themselves, and they screw over everybody they do business with. The "Intervention", as they call it, IS the EDM Windrunner. EDM sent them a cease-and-desist back in 2004 about their use of the Windrunner and pictures of it in...- Hazarmaveth

Tikka T3 vs Remington 700 actions
In what way did they "seem" not as strong? The Remington action is about 1.35" in diameter, circular, with a giant gap in the middle for the ejection port on top and the magazine on the bottom. The T3 action is pretty close to the same outside diameter, about 1.38", but hexagonal (well, kinda...- Hazarmaveth

Tikka T3 vs Remington 700 actions
Define "strong". If you're talking about actual *strength* (as in yield strength or tensile strength, how much it can take before it breaks or deforms) then, well, I think you'll have a hard time finding a broken Sako/Tikka. It's certainly strong enough, and that's all you need. I seriously...- Hazarmaveth

Looking for a .22 trainer and new to the forum.
That CM-2 is about as good as it gets, you should absolutely keep it. They are serious competition-level guns. Mine will shoot 3/8" groups at 50 yards if I feed it the right ammo (RWS Target Rifle works best for this one), and that's with the aperture sights. You have the right idea starting...- Hazarmaveth

BOTH of those crimes were committed by police officers. One of those guns was owned by an officer and used in a drug-related murder, the...- Hazarmaveth

Trying to decide on a factory action
I'm about to be in the market for a rifle. I'll do a long-range build on the action in a year or two, but I want to use it for hunting whitetail here in Pennsylvania (where shots over 300 yards are very unlikely) until then. I'd like to spend about $750 or less on the rifle. I plan on making a...- Hazarmaveth

Gunsmithing Making a wood stock with aluminum chassis
Re: Making a wood stock with aluminum chassis I figured it would have been done before. Thanks for the information. Ratbert, that would depend on what kind of wood I end up using, but wood generally has a better stiffness to weight ratio than almost anything short of very high-quality carbon...- Hazarmaveth

Gunsmithing Making a wood stock with aluminum chassis
Greetings, this is my first post here at this excellent and informative forum. I'm just getting in to precision shooting, and I've got a Savage Mark II FV-SR on the way that's going to need a better stock. Now, I'm a woodworker; I've made a number of guitars, drums, and the like as well as a...- Hazarmaveth
