    Photos Signature fluting and knob install for Centerfire1

    Re: Signature fluting and knob install for Centerfire1 Looks fantastic. I'm curious -- what type of finish is that between the bolt handle and lugs? I'm curious how the contrast of that finish vs. the darker flutes will last over time.

    Hornady Lock N Load primer seating problem for 223

    Re: Hornady Lock N Load primer seating problem for 223 This is great info. I see very few negative things written about the Hornady LnL AP, but when I do, it nearly always has to do with primer seating. Nice to know in some cases it's an easy fix.

    Gunsmithing Bottom metal HELP!!!!

    Re: Bottom metal HELP!!!! Just researched this last week. Stocky's offers their own "M5 Stealth" bottom metal which as noted above, is likely a re-branded PTG. While it is the same inlet as the Badger M5, a Badger product it is not. I ended up going with an RD Precision Rad Tac from Randy...

    Home made O.A.L gauge

    Re: Home made O.A.L gauge Nice work! I had a stuck 30-06 case and purchased the RCBS stuck case remover. When I saw how it worked, I had the same idea you did. I tapped the head of a once-fired 308 case and bought a long 1/4"-20 threaded rod for it. Works pretty well, except it's fairly...

    Brands of Dies

    Re: Brands of Dies The vast majority of dies for standard pistol and rifle calibers are going to be threaded 7/8"-14 and will work in your press. No need to match manufacturers. You may need to buy additional shellplates and Lock N Load bushings to place the dies in. Sounds like you should...

    Bell & Carlson Stock Warranty, AMAZINGLY GOOD!!!!

    Re: Bell & Carlson Stock Warranty, Any Expierences??? Agreed, Stocky's will likely refer you to B&C. Sounds like others here have had good luck with them, hopefully you will too.

    Bell & Carlson Stock Warranty, AMAZINGLY GOOD!!!!

    Re: Bell & Carlson Stock Warranty, Any Expierences??? Did you happen to purchase your B&C through Stocky's? I had a Medalist A2 arrive with a cosmetic blemish (popped paint bubble) and they replaced it with no hassle. I did pay 1-way return shipping but it was worth it to get a nice clean one.

    Which die set would you recommend M1 Garand '06

    Re: Which die set would you recommend M1 Garand '06 I use the RCBS 30-06 X-sizer dies with my Garand. For a few bucks more, you have the option of minimizing trimming. If you don't want to deal with it, you can just back the mandrel out a few turns and use it as a standard FL sizer. These...

    Re: Reloading NEWBIE. Help Yes, that is the ChargeMaster. It's an excellent piece of kit. When you want to upgrade from a beam scale to digital, it's definitely worth spending more and getting the CM. The straw trick helps resolve overweight charges with certain powders. Check out these...
