    CZ 455 (which model?) with Lilja or Anschutz?

    My CZ 455 is all factory with the exception of a trigger, and I must be lucky because it shoots incredibly well. However, I can't see spending the extra money on a barrel, and Manners stock for it, when my 64 MPR already gives me everything I want in the CZ right out of the box for less. Plus...

    My two personal favorites are Mark Gordon at Short Action Customs in Ohio, and William Roscoe at LA Precision Rifles in Louisiana. There are many other great ones here as already said above.

    Gunsmithing Any well known Machine Shops in South Florida???

    You need to be a little more specific as to what your needs are. There are a shit load of machine shops in Hialeah that do all kinds of work. State your needs, and I might be able to guide you. I'm in north Miami.

    Gunsmithing Stiller Tac 30 Ejector

    Do you mean the extractor? If so, the cheapest thing to do is change it out for a new one. If its a Stiller, give them a call, and they may help you out better than you might think.

    Gunsmithing What FFL

    Richard, as long as you don't plan on buying firearms to build on and later resale for a profit, a Type 1 is all that's required. If the customer already owns the firearm, and is bringing it to you for mod's, then a Type 1 will do. Like it was already said above, it will be a lot less crap to...

    Gunsmithing Bedding #1

    Avoid bondo. You'll never get it in the stock and squished in there before it cures. You'd have better luck with wall spackle! (joke) I have to admit, you have a way with words that sometimes crack me up. Thanks for the laugh!! BTW, to the OP, listen to this guy, he really is a master that...

    Gunsmithing Short Barrels in a Long Lathe Spindle?

    That is the way I started out, and depending on how I feel, and job at hand, I still use it. This will surely start an argument, but before anyone that doesn't agree with it starts throwing stones, please watch the included videos with initial results. I didn't show all the details like cutting...

    Gunsmithing Bolt Knob Install Question

    On a Remington, that is very good to perfect. You just haven't got anything else to compare it to, meaning other Remington's, but that is how they look on Remington handles.

    Anschütz 64 MPR for tactical matches?

    The MPR is a repeater. It comes with a 5 round mag, and there is an optional 10 round mag for it. It shoots great, and quite a bit smoother than the CZ's. I have both, and love both.

    Gunsmithing Action truing fixture idea

    I use to use the heavy long truing jig for years. Now I also use the same set up. It is tight up against the chuck, and way smaller in diameter, so the lathe doesnt need to be real big and rigid. You will have to make your own because I've not seen it for sale anywhere, buts fairly easy to...

    Anschutz 64 mpr?

    I have one and love everything except for the improper ejection of Wolf spent cases. I have tried other ammo such as SK Plus, and Eley Match with better results, but still isn't perfect. The rifle feels great and shoots awesome. The action is very smooth and what you would expect from a .22 in...

    .300 Win Mag

    Sometimes answers are based on assumption. So I'm assuming you want this rifle mostly for precision target shooting since you mentioned having others for hunting already. You also said that most of your shooting will be under 1K. I would then say, save your self, and build a rifle chambered in...

    .223 bolt gun questions for newbie

    Mine wasn't exactly cheap, but I wore almost all the red paint off of a 5 inch spinner at 565 yards using 80 grain SMKs with 25.1 grains of Varget in a Lapua case. Yes, mine is more accurate than most ARs. In case you're wondering, it's built on a Stiller action with a Bartlein barrel, bedded...

    Gunsmithing Best way to remove stock material prior bedding?

    The action area, but leaving the bottom alone. In other words where the action bolts/screws come up from the bottom. So, just a little on the sides. You can use a wood dowel wrapped in course sand paper, and go slow. You're not trying to remove much, maybe .010 to .015 ". The barrel channel can...

    Reliable Web Source Help

    Bruno's Shooting Supply has some of the high end Eley In stock, but it's not $25.00 a box. I think Eley black box is at about $15.00 a box. Plus they take backorders. Their prices seem fair to me, so I just put stuff on backorder, and every once in a while I get a pleasant surprise delivery. I...

    Very, very good advise from a guy that is considered by many, including me to be one of the very best precision rifle builders in the good old US of A. A while back a retired member here contacted me for a little advise, and before I knew it, he scored a Heavy 10 in excellent condition, and...
