    Gunsmithing Hydraulic broaching machine

    I am going to help a friend move a couple machines tonight. I have been offered a hydraulic broaching machine. Does anyone use one for making actions? I know bighorn uses wire EDM on his. I am tempted to pick it up just because if the price is right. I would like to build an action for the fun...

    Gunsmithing Neat little jeweling tool I made

    Pool cue tips would be a good source of premade leather for your application. Snooker tips would be close to the diameter you need but 13mm tips should have the thickness.

    Gunsmithing Rimfire barrel choke point ?

    That makes sense. I just never heard of it on centerfire barrels. Other than removing the ends to get to clean consistent rifling. I am curious if the larger bearing surface of larger caliber bullets negates the effect some. I would assume so or slugging and taper lapping would be more common...

    Gunsmithing Rimfire barrel choke point ?

    So I am getting into precision rimfire shooting lately and have a couple questions regarding barrels. It seems according to the interwebs. Barrels shoot better if the crown is located where the barrel bore is tightest. This seems to be backed up by taper laping done by rimfire riflesmiths...

    Getting sponsored?

    From what I have seen. You need to show up and place we'll at several big matches. Also being well liked does not hurt. Most people I shoot with got their sponsors from a conversation with the right person at said big matches.

    Show some of your best groups

    Here are some groups from my ammo testing today. These were shot with my remington 40x B heavy barrel. Toped with a muller 8-32-40 shot at cherry creek off the bench as I did not have time to drive out to the CRC today. I expect the groups to tighten up just a bit once I can shoot prone. The...

I was in agony for days. luckily it all worked out ok. The er doc after flushing it says just use this creme and you may loose your...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    This is very disappointing. I had planned on attending the meeting on the 18th but then it was changed and I was unable to go. I was going to buy a target just for 1000yd shooting. I shoot alone most of the time. I am not comfortable leaving my rifles on the line to run down to the pit to...
