    @Lynn Jr - neither do I. I called Baity today. While I may have misunderstood his accent (almost as thick as Mr. Lynwood Harrell) and he stated the action I posted is what they are currently making , I asked If I could get a repeater with a magazine, suitable for nrl22 and the answer wasn't...

    @DFOOSKING Don't worry some people are never wrong, even when they are not right.........Nothing like recomending $975-1200 actions when a person is balking about the price of a vudoo. I LOL when Lynn syated he dismissed ever post but the first, says all I need to know right there. Before...

    You forgot Hall.Unfortunately all of these with the exception of the stiller are singleshot and are worthless for the OP's stated purpose, nrl22 . I would question why anyone would go stiller2500 repeater over a vudoo, it wont be cheaper at the end of the build and the mag is not as robust. I...

    Gunsmithing Best way to drill large holes in steel

    The industry term is "annular cutter" some cheap Asian ones are worthless 1 and done cutters some cheap Asian cutters are actually OK, decent ones (US and Euro) are considerably more exspensive. Annular cutters can be resharpend by the same type of cutting tool reconditioners that resharpen /...

    @rookie7 A vudoo is a great choice but there a lot of other rifles up to the task of shooting a good score in a positional 22 match. A Vudoo offers the ability to exactly match a 700/clone centerfire match rifle or tap into the myriad of 700 stocks and triggers. I have zero regrets about...

    Webley & Scott Xocet

    Curious if the plastic bolt knob is threaded on and if you can tell how the barrel is retained (pinned or setscrewed or...). Does it look like the trigger is adjustable through either screws or reduced power springs? At that price for a fullish size doner action it may be worth considering...

    @rookie7 first question is do you need a repeater? The options are from much larger pool as far as a quality choices of a singleshot meets your needs. Anschutz Match 54's can sometimes be found under a grand if you look, suhl150's, and used walthers can be viable options, Rem40x's are coming...

    Gunsmithing Best way to drill large holes in steel

    Laser, Waterjet and plasma are all options if you are sub'ing out work but assuming manual machines annular cutters, mentioned above, are pretty effective, if thickness and accuracy are not extreme / an "iron worker" with punches may get it done reasonably fast, if holes are big/deep enough a...

    Gunsmithing Rigid reamer holders

    @flyfisherman246 of going with the rigid reamer holder I would use the carriage over the tailstock for the reasons you mention. I would also PM @DAVETOOLEY as he has discussed using this method in his pre cnc days IRC. Nothing wrong with trying a different way to skin a cat if you have the...

    80 % Lower receiver, Let me know your thoughts

    @BurnOut Just to be crystal clear making your own Title 1 is OK from a fed point of view, read ATF FAQ's, be careful of statel and local regs that may be more stringent. Title 2 (NFA) still require you to do NFA forms and have all the same restrictions (no post 86 full auto except...

    80 % Lower receiver, Let me know your thoughts

    @BurnOut GCA'68 provides for an individual to make their own no form 1 required, read the ATF FAQ's that address this issue. You may make an 80% into a SBR after your paperwork is approved and you have a stamp back, if you are a 02/07 you may form 2 a 80% into a post 86 MG, either of these is...

    80 % Lower receiver, Let me know your thoughts

    When I wrote my program on a cnc mill, I choose to run a drill bit first to remove a good portion of the material, a drill bit's maximum material removal (MMR) is more efficient than a endmill's MMR often times, plus it is much cheaper.....To answer your question lay out your holes such that...

    Vudoo v22 chassis ? AI AT vs MPA BA

    If it is not a "trainer" where you are trying to match the feel of a centerfire competition rifle exactly, I would recommend the AI AX chassis ergonomics are not exact copy but features are similar enough. I like MPA chassis stocks but they are not as similar in feel to the Tac1 as an AI AX If...

    Suppressors Boring out an aac mini4 into a 308...

    Do yourself a favor and don't don't do it. ATF has ruled it a no-no. As an individual you can not repair a can, only gunsmiths and manufactures. They can modify it but are not allowed to increase length or caliber or replace tube (serialized part). ATF NFA FAQ's and a Q&A session from small arms...

    Her Title: Cryptologic Technician. Her Occupation: Warrior.

    @TheGerman While I agree with your points, do you think the "politicians with stars" aren't/won't go along with this great "social experiment" foisted on the military by those who could care less about the combat effectiveness implications or the potential costs of making their brave new...

    American ISIS

    In a country where members of the armed services can do acts of treason that result directly in the deaths of US serviceman (Nidal Hasan 14 killed) or indirectly killed by their actions (Bowie Bergdahl over 6 killed during operations looking for him) and continue to breathe air for years...
