    safety question about reloading

    Re: safety question about reloading im not worried about the pockets, they are still tight, i had a light load of 23 grain of 4064 and some cheap bullets to blow out the brass, it was a 55 grain hornady fmjbt. im sure there was not enough pressure to even fire form the brass like i was...

    rem xmark trigger

    Re: rem xmark trigger by the way my cheap timney works better than the jewell the only downfall to it is the trigger pull weight isnt as adjustable as the jewell, i can only get the timney down to just over a pound when bench shooting, the other plus for the jewell is you could do most of the...

    rem xmark trigger

    Re: rem xmark trigger i would like to agree with me doing something wrong when setting them up but had a bunch of my buddys with jewells try to tune mine and they couldnt get the slack out of it as well, we could get it to break like a dream with no slack but had minimal sear eng and the...

    Re: rem 700 308 190 grain smk loads i ended up staying at 40.5 of imr 4064 and the gun shoots better every time i shoot it, it really likes that load when the bullet is .010 of the lands

    rem 700 ss 5r

    Re: rem 700 ss 5r does the 5r work as well in 223 as it does in 308? i am interested in another 223 for my daughter but dont know if i should even bother with the 5r 223, all i know is the 5r 308 is the best factory rifle in that price range!

    Re: Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700?

    How much better is custom?

    Re: How much better is custom? hey like i said in my first post choose a round and by the way it sound you dont have any expirience with large bore rifles, you could build a 338 and try to learn how to shoot it, nothing wrong except you would be way better off with something like a 308, and...

    Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700?

    Re: Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700? for a r700 it would be hard to beat a timney, have had mine for many miles and have already had to replace firing pin and spring do to light strikes but the trigger still breaks clean and crisp.(rem 700 5r)

    Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700?

    Re: Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700? i have a couple timneys, in my ar have had no light strikes and have shot everything from handloads to all sorts of mill primers and they all go bang, as far as a heavy lift from a bolt shouldnt have anything to do with the trigger in a bolt gun

    How much better is custom?

    Re: How much better is custom? before buying a gun you really need to think about the caliber. you said a .308 or a 338 lapua, i am very familar with both because i have both. the 308 is a very good game caliber and very very accurate but will not get you to 1500. the 338lm will do everything...
