    F T/R Competition 25x ?

    Bill- I'm running a Nightforce comp on my 6mmCreedmoor F rifle. The scope is sitting on a 20 MOA rail and nestled in Nightforce rings. I have no problem getting a zero for 100 or 1000. Scores with this set up are at top end of Master classification. This was my first season shooting F-class...

    223 Accurate Mag?

    If you hate the length on 10 round 223 mags as I do, you can also make a "hybrid" 5 shot 223 mag using Accurate mag 223 inner parts. I used a scuffed up AI 5 round 308 mag for the prototype. Drill the spot welds and remove the reinforcement/spacer from the front -inside of the mag Pull the...

    Gunsmithing How many times can I use the same degreaser? ~ Cerakote ~

    I pre-clean before blasting with an aerosol carb/choke cleaner. I blast with barrel out of action because it seems easier to me to get all the abrasive out of all the nooks and crannies that way. I plug/tape/mask off places I don't want blasted or coated. I reassemble after blasting then go to...

    Gunsmithing Seating Die mods...

    Chad- I've used that trick with Devcon plastic steel on seating dies and sizer dies for cast bullets for years. I used a drill bit for the over sized hole then scratched up the interior for more grab with the bedding compound. Never had one not stay in place.

    Gunsmithing Chuck shopping

    I just got my new TBAS from Straight Shot a week ago. Yes it's pricey but it is a wonderful piece of kit. It does stick out further from the spindle than the 4 jaw I've been running but I only use an outboard spider to keep the outer end of the barrel captured.

    Federal UM1 & UM900 22lr ammo

    Irish....FYI Back in the late 90's early 2000's I shot the 900B exclusively and still have a pretty good stash reserved for special occasions. During that time frame I was shooting schuetzen at Nationals in Raton along side Lones Wigger. If that name doesn't ring any bells run a search. Lones...

    Gunsmithing rust bluing.. what am i doing wrong?..

    Derrick The replies above are correct to my knowledge about degree of polish....about 320 is perfect and I've found 320 done by hand is way better than 320 on a buffer. The binders/grease in buffing compound are your enemy. The time you allow the chemical to work can also lead to rougher...

    Custom Reamer for 6.5 CM

    my chamber is cut with a standard PTG 6.5CM reamer. I run Berger 140 VLDs . My gun regularly shoots under half MOA with lots of groups in the 0.3-0.4 MOA range. My OAL is 2.85" for mag fed and 2.87" for single load. Both lengths shoot great and under most conditions don't require dope changes...
