    Gunsmithing does the style of crown produce better accuracy ?

    Re: does the style of crown produce better accuracy ? The main reason im wondering is because I bought a savage TRR-SR in .17 HMR and the crown looks kinda lacking. I live in Canada and will never have a need for the suppressor threads so I was thinking about cutting that 1/2" of the barrel...

    Gunsmithing does the style of crown produce better accuracy ?

    Does a barrel that is cut flat and crowned suffer in accuracy compared to a barrel that is recessed a tad and than crowned ? seams to me the bottom photos only advantage is durability to protect the crown ? ( I personally would put more effort in to get rid of tool marks ect,, just an...

    Savage 93 FV round cycling issues

    Re: Savage 93 FV round cycling issues Is the bolt open or closed when you put the mag in? A lot of times when you have a full mag and put it in with the bolt closed it will not seat perfect. Very common with more than just savages. Open the bolt than put the mag in. This is the normal...

    1000y target in tuff wind.

    As I walked down to set up the target and back I checked spots with my wind meter and had a low of 10mph wind with gust up to 30mph from 3oclock. Once behind the rifle my only signs were natural tall grass and the wind its self. I had no wind markers set up. Scope is a fixed 10x sightron and...

    Gunsmithing Tube gun chassis for a rare or custom action?

    I have a 6xc with a tikka M55 action. It has a classic wood stock. Are there any semi inlet tube chassis I could make work ? Mostly just something so I could have a more tactical style stock with m16 style grips.

    Rifle Scopes Mil dot zeroing question

    If you zero your rifle @ 100y off say 2 mils up rather than center on the crosshairs, will ur shooting program still be accurate at long range if you shoot off mil dots? For example: say my bullet drops 7 milrads @ 1000y. If I zero my rifle 2 up can I make that 1000y shot still on the lower...
