Definitely looking forward to the pictures, very cool area to shoot at.

Had tons of fun there, hope you have it again next year. Thanks guys

I like to use PT&G bolts, you can get a body and handle for around $140 and add what extractor you like.

I have set back a couple and rebarreled a couple. Some copper fouled horrible and it was best to replace the barrel.

You're asking a lot of the 22cal for that. Sure it can be done but something like a 260ai would do a much better job.

Re: DPMS 6.5 creedmoor issues i bet your machinist friend didn't put the rifle back together correctly after threading the barrel.

Re: SC gunsmith Check out Darlington Gun Works, don't know if I spelled the name right but they do some nice work.

Re: Do Smiths Ever Sell Lathes on the Hide? Hard? how did you get that? Expensive and profitable making a few cans? hell no. I am saying it is illegal to do unless you have all of the proper licenses. I wouldn't even think about making cans unless I was going to do high production just to...

Re: Local smith wants $200 to thread/install brake? I have put breaks on 223's for guys before, one guy had a major neck injury and was unable to shoot his 223 unless it had a break on it.

Re: 338 Sin and why it was developed It looks close to it but from what I have read on the 338-375ruger it is a little slower than the 338 Sin, closer to 340 weatherby and 330 Dakota speeds.

Re: 338 Sin and why it was developed I have some numbers now 225gr bullet will hit 3200fps and the accuracy load was right at 3150fps from a rechambered factory Tikka T3 light 24" 338 win mag. Accuracy was good with a 5 shot group of <3"@600 yrds.

Re: Wanted five. rem 700 barrels removed from actions if anything could be chambered and fired then it would be an SBR and get into ultra mega trouble. Leave the barrel on until it is removed. it will cost you a whole $10 extra to ship them all.

Re: Contouring from a blank It is a P.I.A. if you are doing it on a manual lathe with no taper attachment. I have done it. Will I do it again? probably on my own only. I'll gladly pay Brux to contour my barrels for me.

Re: Savage Style Barrel Nut on a Howa? No grooves, it uses a spanner wrench with a hole in the bottom. Here is a pic of a CZ I did the same way. I have done it that way for Remingtons and Mod70's too.
