    Gunsmithing How does copper hurt accuracy???

    Re: How does copper hurt accuracy??? Do we really need to do all this copper removing work for our rifles to shoot well? I'm thinking about seeing what happens if I just remove fouling and skip the copper removing solvents. Anyone else tried this? Maybe I'll just clean with WD40 for a couple...

    Savage MKII Varmint or CZ 453 Varmint????

    Re: Savage MKII Varmint or CZ 453 Varmint???? You will not regret getting the CZ. They shoot great and the fit and finish is (IMHO) better then the Savage.

    Re: imr 4064 in 308 Had several 308s that shot great with a 168 and 43 grains of 4064 loaded to 2.8. You may want to try 43.0 first and work up.

    Re: Seasoned barrel - break in ?? "My dealer is not only a dealer. He is the distributor, and the guys in there know their stuff. Most if not all of the salesmen shoot long range center fire. And i watched them put the scope on" Then ask them?

    Need a process for testing 22lr ammo

    Re: Need a process for testing 22lr ammo Maybe I can save you some time and money. My CZ452 shoots very will with several of the hi end ammos like Federal Gold Match and Lapua. We are talking .3 as 50 for 5 shots. But for a fraction of the price, CCI standard velocity will shoot .5s at 50...

    Neck Tension Question

    Re: Neck Tension Question If I understand what you are saying, you are comparing fire formed neck sized brass to full lenth sized brass. They will not be comparable until they are fire formed to your chamber. Shoot them and see what happens. I would seperate my brass based on brand, times fired.

    uspsa approved 9mm production load?

    Re: uspsa approved 9mm production load? I shot USPSA for about 10 years until the local club shut down. I squeaked into B class with a Para P-14. The secrete to getting good at USPSA is to have someone teach you the fundamentals and then shoot a lot (and I mean a lot). You want to find the...

    Suppressors Revolver fans? S&W content

    Re: Revolver fans? S&W content I have always been intrigued with the 8 shot 627. I have a 4” 66 and a 5” 625 that has a custom shop action job and the cylinders chamfered. I really like both, but the 625 is my favorite. The prices of Smith’s revolvers have gone thru the roof. I got my 625 in...

    Re: need a 1911 22lr conv. My ciener platinum cup will put 10 shots in an inch at 25 yards if you do your part. There are 10 and 15 round mags available. I don’t know anything about any other conversion units.

    Gunsmithing Case blackening at the neck

    Re: Case blackening at the neck Dam, this is a rough cowd. The guy is just asking what might cause this. I think it's a fair question. I don't see where he is is blaming anyone.

    A local smith was talking about truing the upper reciever on an AR-15. I have never heard of this. He charges $100. Is this the deal or a gimmick?
