    Gunsmithing Help me troubleshoot my HS Precision DBM?

    Re: Help me troubleshoot my HS Precision DBM? Lots of ways to tweak this. I would start with thin washers before I tried to modify the inlet or bend mag feed lips. Sounds like the front of the mag needs to come down and/or the rear raised. Start with an empty mag and see if the feed lips are...

    Gunsmithing what are these marks in my bore?

    Re: what are these marks in my bore? Ouch. I was hoping I was right but no luck there. I am appalled that someone let that out the door without at least an "I'm sorry". I do not consider myself all that good at running the lathe but even I can do better than that. I originally thought we...

    Gunsmithing rem 700 question

    Re: rem 700 question You can use this action for any of the chamberings you mentioned but some of the choices will require more modifications to the bolt/action than others ($$$). The SPS barrel you have may not have enough meat in the chamber area to be "winmagged out". Look for another...

    Gunsmithing what are these marks in my bore?

    Re: what are these marks in my bore? I may be wrong but I believe what we are all looking at is where the smith used a short piece of barrel to make a thread protector cap (albeit an ugly one). If this part screws off then you may have excellent threads and a perfect crown below. I do not see...

    Gunsmithing Anyone see the new borescope company at SHOT?

    Re: Anyone see the new borescope company at SHOT? I would not say POS. I own a rigid scope from MDS. I have also perused the Hawkeye. I personally feel the Hawkeye to be a better value. I'm not into slamming manufacturer's on the internet. I am not unhappy with the MDS; I simply prefer the...

    Re: cutting oil for chamber reaming Anyone try Mobilmet GAMMA? I have been told it is the same as the Mobilmet 766 product designation??? I can't speak from experience on this. I have acquired a lathe, PTG reamers were delivered yesterday and I need to place a large ENCO order to before the...

    Re: Anyone see the new borescope company at SHOT? I believe you are referring to MDS. I have one of their scopes. Wanna buy theirs? I think I am going to purchase a Hawkeye.

    Gunsmithing Hobby blasting equipment help

    Re: Hobby blasting equipment help The answer for compressors is simple. You either need a honkin gigundo compressor with high cfm output (I would say min 10scfm at 100psi) or you need to be very patient while letting the compressor cycle and catch up. If you have more time than money then...

    Gunsmithing Unturned barrel blanks??

    Re: Unturned barrel blanks?? If you want a contoured barrel then buy a contoured blank. These straight axles are for people who want to learn how to turn or that want to do a custom contour quickly. They are also great for people who don't really care about weight, balance or aesthetics. Try...

    Gunsmithing Rem 700 (.300WM) Sako Extractor Issues

    Re: Rem 700 (.300WM) Sako Extractor Issues Do another sako extractor search back a few years. I had the same issues on a rifle I bought. You can bevel the extractor tooth profile (the part that grabs the case rim). This worked for me. I would definitely have a spare part on hand before trying...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold enough travel for 50 cal?

    Re: Leupold enough travel for 50 cal? Variable mark 4 scopes have less travel (not sure how much). Only the fixed mark 4's have the 140 min of elevation. I use a mark 4 16x w ith a 30moa integral base on my AMAC. 100 yard zero is no problem and should hit the 50's max effective range...
