    Rifle Scopes another EREK question

    Re: another EREK question gszeto99 thanks for your reply... Let me see if I understand: the reticle is attached to the erector tube and only moves when I turn the knob or the center screw... right? Meaning I can't move the reticle independent of the erector tube... right? Now, if I mount...

    Gunsmithing recoil lug on aics... not enough contact?

    Re: recoil lug on aics... not enough contact? And what do you think about the small v-block in front of the recoil lug recess in the AICS? Will this be ok for helping hold a fat barrel? A few weeks ago I asked about hanging a 1.250 cylinder out of my 700 action on the aics and most barrel...

    Re: recoil lug on aics... not enough contact? Thanks alot!! First I will check with the torque experiment. Then I will bed the lug. I still have plenty of epoxy left from the base bedding. Unfortunately, trueing the action is a VERY difficult task to do in Argentina. Gunsmiths won't do it. I...

    newbie question

    Hi guys, I'm new in the reloading world... I need some advice. Sorry if the question is too obvious: What primers should I buy to reload .308 Winchester? Should I buy large rifle primers or small rifle primers? thanks

    hoppes copper solvent

    Hi, I would like to know if someone used the Hoppe's BENCH REST Copper Solvent #9 (black label). What do you think about it? I use a Dewey coated rod... will this solvent damage my rod? or the coating? or the bronze jags? or the nylon brushes? Thanks in advance!!

    Re: First build - stage 1 competed Ahh, and last upgrade, if I ever have the chance to travel to the states, I will arrange a meeting with a gunsmith to true the action. No gunsmith here will do that. Thanks again!!

    torque accuracy

    Most, if not all, torque wrench manufacturers tell theyr wrenches will remain accurate for XXXX time. After that period of time, they recommend to get it calibrated. Does that mean that the tool, stored for XXXX time in the toolbox, without having been used, will loose it's accuracy? Or do they...
