    Gunsmithing Cerakote

    Re: Cerakote Hi Todd That is exactly why I sent it back to the company that did the work. As I said a lesson learnt, I will certainly NOT use that company again nor will I recomend the smithing service to anyone else. Their barrels definitely.

    Gunsmithing Who uses Loctite

    Just got my US Optics SN3 and scope mounts and was wondering who uses Loctite when fitting the base to the action?. Also torque value for the securing screws. In the past I have never used loctite nor torque wrench on the screws, just used good old snug up and little bit extra.

    Gunsmithing Cerakote

    Gunsmithing Cerakote

    Re: Cerakote Hi Dave Not going to start throwing names around but how would the average guy be expected to re-install the barrel. I was just surprised as when we built rifles on the M98 action we always sent out a barreled action for blueing, we never sent barrel and action seperate. Is...

    Gunsmithing Cerakote

    Ok here is the deal. I removed the barrel from a Rem700 and sent the action off to be blue printed, have a cut rifled, fluted barrel installed. They also chambered it for 300WM The barreled action was then sent off to the proof house where they proof fired it. (A legal requirement here in UK)...
