Gunsmithing Do you have to blue before paint?

The good thing about painting it yourself is if it starts coming off or you get tired of the color...- snommittj

Re: nc and sc range I witnessed 95LTZ shoot a 5 shot 4.5" group at 985yds tonight with his Tubb gun.

Can you seat the bullets out far enough and still load from the mag? I'm putting the new Surgeon round long action in one with a 30" tube...- snommittj

Gunsmithing Cerakote vs DuraCoat
Re: Cerakote vs DuraCoat Does Cera-kote spray as easy as DuraCoat? I have very little experience with an HVLP sprayer, but the DuraCoat is very easy to spray and my jobs come out looking good.
