    Favorite M5 bottom metal for Manners nightstalker?

    Yes sir. Assuming you are running a receiver with AW compatible bottom cut, you should be good to go. Thanks for asking.

    For the Love of God, GI Joe and John Wayne.... cleaning and abrasive cleaners

    I think this is correct. They changed the formula and took the nitrobenzene out. Still loved the smell! Prolly what's wrong with me now. . . When they changed the formula, I stopped using Hoppes because I was butthurt and moved to Shooters Choice, the plain SC7 stuff. I have been using...

    Key holing 6mm creed after barrel cut

    Just slap some of this on and don't crash until after you figure this out! .

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    For sure .....but... it is very well behaved and consistent across more barrels and chambers due to it retaining the original 168bthp ogive versus the newer TMK that sacrificed "well behaved" for higher BC. That original ogive profile was the magic sauce in GM308M. Federal knew everybody was...

    Key holing 6mm creed after barrel cut

    I think that was before he retired so he was possibly in the middle of it. I'll have to ask him.

    Biden's Pardons

    FUN FACT: Lucky for us, regardless of the political affiliation a pedophile may ascribe to, only a moderately long blade is needed to scramble the subclavian artery when accessed via the suprasternal notch. If applied with enough vigor it may be possible to also compromise the carotid and/or...

    Key holing 6mm creed after barrel cut

    Did you recently clean your TBAC and have it on this rifle with muzzle pointed up for any length of time?

    Key holing 6mm creed after barrel cut

    Dang! What did you do with that rifle since the last session? It looks like you did an infil with SEALS and didn't rinse the seawater out of the bore! Can't zoom too much detail in your pics but whatever corrosion or bloom you have inside the bore looks like it grew there since the last...

    No. FBI whacking Surgeon barrels and chronoing.

    Key holing 6mm creed after barrel cut

    We have literally seen barrels cut with hacksaw and bandsaw during velocity trials. Not only did they not keyhole, they shot pretty damned good. The crown would have to be spectacularly fucked up to cause this. What about if your twist rate for that bullet was borderline before the cut and...

    Favorite M5 bottom metal for Manners nightstalker?

    Thank you so much for sharing that info. That rig looks sick! Very, very cool rifle AND you're running one of my favorite scopes. Now go wear that thing out! I appreciate your business. You and yours have a blessed Christmas T

    Agreed. We need to get our shit straight on efficient nuclear power plants, preferably fusion which seems to be getting really close. Done correctly, we should be able to step right off of coal and gas fired plants onto nukes. If we could do that, we could concentrate on running our ICE...

    Gunsmithing Swap Remington 700 barrels

    It could very well fall within the Go and No GO as is or maybe not. If it comes up too long on the headspace, it would be an easy bump back on the shoulder to bring back to acceptable. If it comes up too short on the headspace, it will need to be hit with a chamber reamer to bring back to...

    Damn. I'd rather cut a damned finger off. I don't envy you. I've grieved harder for animals than I have for family and friends. Prolly not a good trait but true.

    Gunsmithing True bore alignment system RPM?

    Lathe weight/mass tolerates higher RPMs when dialed in=out of balance workpiece. Yours should be fine and allow faster than you would want to run anyway. My lathe is about 3,500 lbs and I run the TBAS with most work at 400 to 600 rpm. I have accidentally spun up work to 900/1100 for a few...
