    Re: Best way to remove krylon from an AR-15 The aircraft stripper just bubbles the paint up and is removed by a cleaning brush.

    Gunsmithing Best way to remove krylon from an AR-15

    Well, after searching and searching I haven't found a good answer on how to easily strip krylon off an ar-15 so I tried about everything. I will list from lease effective to most. Hope this helps someone. I ended up using aircraft stripper. This also removed Rustoleum primer from the firearm...

    Adjust powder or seating depth first?

    Re: Adjust powder or seating depth first? Ok, I was unsure. I found the best powder weight at 43.5/43.6. Then adjusted the seating depth. The closer to the lands the worse the accuracy.

    Adjust powder or seating depth first?

    Well Just like the title says, which do you guys adjust first when perfecting the handload. The amount of powder drop or the depth you seat the bullet/c.o.a.l.?

    Savage 10, Case C.O.A.L. of 2.878

    Re: Savage 10, Case C.O.A.L. of 2.878 Well, keeping powder the same, I found my loads are more accurate at 2.8 than at 2.87. 2.87 yielded groups near 1 1/2. Where at 2.8 they were touching.

    Re: Savage 10, Case C.O.A.L. of 2.878 Thanks Chris, hope to determine accuracy this weekend at 500 yards. Didn't know if almost .1 inch over spec is acceptable.

    Savage 10, Case C.O.A.L. of 2.878

    Re: New 300wsm hunting rifle needs setup. Help on ammo How would bergers perform in the short range game? I would think that they might prematurely expand and not penetrate at higher velocities.

    Hunting & Fishing New 300wsm hunting rifle needs setup. Help on ammo

    Hi all, Just purchased a savage 16 300wsm in left hand. Came with Burris rings and bases. I think I am going to go with a 4x12 scope with adjustable objective. Also going to put on a bubble level/anticant device. For the scope I think I am going with a vortex, but I cant decide on ammo...
