    Question about the 40x .22LRs?

    This is a much better action. Stiller Precision Firearms Lonestar .22lr Action Bill Calfee does not like the Remington 40X action. IMO a Winchester 52D/E is a much better rifle. OTOH so is an Anschutz 54. Some 40X were made on the 700 action, while others were on the 721. The 700 actions have...

    10/22 barrel options (target/accuracy)

    IMO, for what ever that is worth. Here is my list of barrels in order of accuracy. Kidd, Shilen, Clark, Green Mountain followed by Shaw. I have owned/own all of them. I have one exceptionally accurate GM barrel. I got lucky with that one. My current Kidd barrel is the most accurate of all. The...

    Not tactical in the least my Kimber 82G bench rest rifle

    All you have to do to make it "tactical" is slap some Velcro on it.

    not too bad for mid grade ammo

    I do my ammo testing at 100yds. If ammo groups well at 100 then it usually does well at 200. Not every time though. A good lot# to me is one that groups under 1/2" at 100 yds. I have a few that go under 3/8". My three most accurate rifles are 1808/Shilen, 2007/Lilja and a 1411 made in the '70s.

    Looking for help with 10/22 jamming issue

    I think your problem is barrel droop. Friend of mine had the same problem. First of all you only need 10 in/lb on the v-block. Most barrels do not fit the receiver very tightly. Get this and your problems should go away. Gunsmither Elevating Barrel Retainer Block Ruger 10/22 Steel I don't mess...

    Anschutz 64 MPR ejection issue

    The extraction problem with the 64 action does not exist according to Anschutz. Mine extracts perfectly after doing the mods to both extractors.

    How confidant are you; 3/4 inch consistantly at 100+ yards POLL

    Looks to be too tough for my old busted up body. That's what happens when a 60 year old decides to ride a Sport Bike again after road racing at Talladega and Daytona decades ago = dead man on the side of the road after crash. Injuries are way too numerous to list.

    Gunsmithing 1911 work questions

    There are some misconceptions about "tight" guns not running. That is totally false. I have a LBPII that was so tight when I got it that I thought it would not run. You don't have to keep them dripping wet with oil. I use a 50/50 mix of STP and FP10. Just a few drops on the rails and a little on...

    How confidant are you; 3/4 inch consistantly at 100+ yards POLL

    On a more serious note. I wish some of you could shoot my match Brock's Gap Training Center, Hoover, Alabama - .22 Sniper Match I think you would enjoy it. In 2+ years there have only been 4 perfect 60/60 scores shot. Last match we had two. OTOH there was zero wind. I have changed a few of the...

    How confidant are you; 3/4 inch consistantly at 100+ yards POLL

    Heck, I can do it all day long with my Nylon 66 and 4X Weaver with 3/4" tube. It's a real tack driver with CCI Blazers.

    Info Request: .22LR Barrel Length for CCI Mini-Mag (Also what exactly is a CCI Mini-Mag?)

    Glad you guys sweep the floor every night. Glock/Smyrna had an unfortunate accident at their indoor range a few years back.

    Want to get a 40x

    I must admit I drink the Bill Calfee Koolaid. Bill says in his book (The Art of Rimfire Accuracy) that the 40x, with vertical lugs and the angled sear engagement area, causes only one lug to engage when the bolt is closed. Most good smiths can correct the lug issue. I suspect Stiller has long...

    Want to get a 40x

    The only negative thing about a 40X is the vertical locking lugs. The aftermarket actions based on the 40X have horizontal lugs. Forgot to mention I had a USMC 40X. It is based on the 722 action. The barrel is tapered.
