Sizing die
I saw a link for a sizing die specifically designed for belted magnum cases. My computer recently took a header and I had to replace it; lost the link with it. Can anyone provide me a link so I can order it. Thanks in advance.- Long_Trang

Your Definition of a Sniper Rifle
Re: Your Definition of a Sniper Rifle I own a precision custom rifle. It is capable of better than average accuracy and long range ballistic advantages. I am not a sniper.

Gunsmithing Bare steel?
Re: Bare steel? Very useful information, thanks guys! Is there any risk of damaging the bore from firing completely dry and free of fouling...metal on metal? Is it necessary to have something between the surface of the bore and the jacket of the bullet?- Long_Trang

Gunsmithing Bare steel?
Re: Bare steel? Thanks Gary. I'll do a search for the other aspects of cold bore shooting. So, there is no danger to the bore from firing metal on metal without something between the bore and the bullet, ie..carbon fouling or gun oil?- Long_Trang

Gunsmithing Bare steel?
Someone was telling me that instead of leaving a barrel fouled, clean out all gun oil just before shooting with isopropyl alcohol. He said the gun oil affects the first few shots until it burns away and that is what shooters call fouling shots. Does that work and is there any danger to shooting...- Long_Trang

Re: THATS IT.. I QUIT!!!!!!! Smith, I'm trying quitting myself. Been on the quit ride since Jan 10. I too slipped up here and there on the way, it's expected.

Gunsmithing Torquing for tight group
I recently had a pillar bed job done on my custom 300WM. I ordered stainless Rem 700 trigger guard screws (at the suggestion of my gunsmith) for a Rem 721 action. He told me to set the forward screw at 45" lbs and the rear at 30" lbs to start with. He also told me the maximum recommended torque...- Long_Trang
