    F T/R Competition How many are using prepped lc brass for 308 ftr?

    I shoot LC brass from my 700 .308 at our F/TR matches because it's the only brass I have right now. I haven't had any problems with reloading the brass specifically, but I'm still working on getting the right load for 1000 yd matches. Still relatively new to long range shooting. As far as the...

    tumbling loaded ammo?

    Re: tumbling loaded ammo? How about this side of the argument? What if you had "acquired" some linked rounds that had been sitting in the garage for a couple of years and now has a layer of corrosion/rust around where the metal links contact the brass? Instead of pulling apart 300+ rounds...

    New Member: Rem 700 AAC-SD

    Re: New Member: Rem 700 AAC-SD They use the Accuracy International Chassis System 5rd or 10rd mags. I bought the 10rd mags from Brownells. I have received my RTG/SA and will be putting it in this weekend. So far the mags fit perfect in the bottom metal uninstalled.

    Gunsmithing Does this muzzle look right?

    Re: Does this muzzle look right? Definitely helped. To make sure I got it, this means threading the barrel to a certain size is like choosing a socket for a bolt. 1/2x28 means a "half inch" or .495 is going to be remaining on the barrel right? So just like the picture posted, it should...

    Gunsmithing Ignore...I'm an idiot

    Re: ER Shaw Rem 700 barrels I've been reading this forum for almost a year now and just realized this beautiful search thingy. Still hasn't helped answer a lot of my questions so I guess I had to join to start threads eh?

    Gunsmithing Does this muzzle look right?

    Re: Does this muzzle look right? alrighty then, can someone show me what the numbers mean when you thread a barrel in different sizes. I understand the 28 threads per inch means it's going to thread almost an inch of the barrel with 28 threads. What I don't understand is what the 1/2 or 3/4...
