    DPMS LR308 Build????

    I picked up a stripped LR308 lower receiver in the early stages of the craziness. I have "slowly" been gathering up everything to build the complete rifle, but I am second guessing myself on using the DPMS parts. I really want a Mega Arms Matched set, but they are still about impossible to find...

    CZ455 Modification Thread

    This is a great idea for pillars will this work on the 452 Varmint? I found this info on another forum. This may be relevant here. I am going to try this on my 452. CZ 452 Varmint 22LR accurizing tips. Free float the barrel from the Lug forward so that a thickness of 2 business cards or 2...

    CZ455 Modification Thread

    This is a great thread. I just purchased a 452 varmint about two weeks ago. I installed a DIP 25 MOA base, Leuopold PRW Med rings and a vortex PST 4-16. I bought this to polish up my skills and not waste my 308 ammo. Anyway, a yodave trigger kit will be on it's way soon. My trigger has some...

    Bullet runout problem with Dillon 308 dies

    I think I am getting closer to figuring it out. Ballistic308, after seeing your message this morning, I looked at my shell plate and it has loosened up since I last adjusted it. There was a little bit of play in it. I could definitely see how this could cause this kind of problem. jwp6114...

    Bullet runout problem with Dillon 308 dies

    I resized 100 pieces of brass at .005", I have been using these for load testing. So far they have all functioned great so the next time I resize them, I am going to move up to .004" and make sure that they all function correctly. I started small just to make sure everything was going to work...

    Bullet runout problem with Dillon 308 dies

    I am bumping the shoulder back .005". I believe .001" to .002" is recommended for bolt guns, and .003" to .005" for gas guns.

    Bullet runout problem with Dillon 308 dies

    Resized loaded run out is .003" on the neck and .006" at the ogive. Once fired is less than .002" run out on the neck. New resized is .004" run out on the neck. The case mouths are pretty beat up after firing. It seems like everyone is suggesting new dies. I had placed an order for the...

    Bullet runout problem with Dillon 308 dies

    I am using the expander. Will adjusting it's position help? Possibly put the ball closer to the top of the stroke so the neck is still supported by the die? I have not adjusted the position of the expander, I could take it out and see what the results are.

    Bullet runout problem with Dillon 308 dies

    I am currently getting bullet runout in the .006” range. I am resizing my brass to .005” shorter headspace than the chamber. I measured fired brass to determine the size of the chamber and then adjusted the size die to headspace .005” shorter. I am wondering about taking this to .003", maybe I...

    Gunsmithing Cerakote to Match Vortex Razor

    I am trying to match a vortex razor as well. I looked at a bunch of swatches, and the patriot brown is almost exactly the same color as my razor, but it is flat and doesn't match the shine the anodize has. The burnt bronze matches the sheen of the anodize but it is lighter and not as dark...

    Winchester Stealth returns in 2013

    Re: Winchester Stealth returns in 2013 I found these two at cheaper than dirt. I can't find any other info on them, but they have the Bell and Carlson stock, and the MOA trigger. The MOA trigger feels great. I have always liked the original winchester trigger, but this feels really good...

    Is it worth it to build a DPMS pattern AR10?

    Re: Is it worth it to build a DPMS pattern AR10? Exactly, you get to build it the way you want from the start, without the upfront investment. I am looking at possibly getting a mega arms upper lower combo and some rainy day in the future, build a 260 remington out of it.

    Looking for a USA made rifle case

    I am looking for an american made, soft rifle case. I want similar features as the voodoo 46" padded weapons case. That case is just about perfect, but I want it to be made in USA. I would like to know what you have, how you like it and where you got it from. Thanks for all your input.
