    M40a1 build guide

    Re: M40a1 build guide Honestly though, its not like any civilian is going to get an action actually used by the USMC. When people talk about being in the right "range" all you mean is that they are close to the same time as the ones made. There a set number of serial numbers on a list of...

    Neck turning tool do you use?

    Re: Neck turning tool do you use? I enjoy reloading and increasing my skill with it hence why I turn necks. Plus I shoot LC brass and it kinda needs it. Should have gone with Winchester or Lapua brass if I wanted to skimp on neck turning

    Re: First chamber job Give us the details man! This is freaking cool. What caliber is it? What reamer did you use? What are your plans for this rifle? Are you a gunsmith or a machinist? This is really neat and I have always wanted to try this myself. What was the hardest/ scariest part?
