    PCR and Custom Gun Coatings PROOF 338LM

    Be sure to let us know how that Proof barrel does. I'd love to watch some slow-mo video of that rifle. The APA brakes are great because the 12:00 and 6:00 are interchangeable... not only making timing twice as easy, but it doesnt cause the barrel to whip down like some others do. We've steered...

    I turned a piece of AL to fit the raceway and that's just a piece of wood on top. Scope rail would have worked better.

    Gunsmithing Sealing a wood stock

    Chad, If you need to bed the forend of the wooden stock to clean up the top line make sure that you allow for enough barrel clearance. The attached pictures show 2 layers of 10 mil but now I use 2 layers of 20 mil pipe tape. You need the most clearance in the belly of the stock so you can add...

    Gunsmithing How many times can I use the same degreaser? ~ Cerakote ~
