    Gunsmithing Who predrills their chambers?

    I had an old time benchrest shooter tell me one time that the bent bore barrels shot better than the straight ones. he was serious as a heart attack to!! I like to chamber like Gordy does. Only difference is that I insert a bushing up into the throat area, and indicate off the inside of the...

    Gunsmithing New lathe porn

    Good for you friend. Nothing like working hard for something nice! I noticed your little jet. I had one just like it. Good machine, just a bit to lite.

    Gunsmithing Too much runout on action alignment rod

    Doc If my lathe isn't good enough to make an alignment rod, then why would it be good enough to true a rem 700 action up? My rods are not ground, but they work just fine. The last rem 700 I did for myself says so. Shoots itty bitty!!!! Lee

    Gunsmithing Grizzly G0509G

    I can promise you one thing, a vfd for that lathe will be extremely expensive, compared to a roto phase set up. I have that lathe and I like mine very much. my roto phase cost me 300 bucks, motor and all. divide that by two, because I run my mill on the same unit. cheap!! The lathe you want is...

    Gunsmithing Grizzly G8689 mini-mill?

    you are going to love learning how these machines work. I would highly suggest, if you can afford it, buy something worth having. your little lathe is just about a waste of money. if its the machine I think it is. remember, you can learn these new skills on any size machine. they don't have to...

    22 Creedmoor

    I like the idea very much. I wanted one 3 years ago when the 6.5 CM came out. I worry about a couple things, but I see no real reason not to build one in 22cal. Hornady brass isn't the best, and as it seems there are a lot of guys bitching about primer pockets getting loose. that's not good...

    Del-ton uppers ?

    chrome lined might not be the best idea if accuracy only was in mind, for an ar thought you wont notice anything much. probably will be a 1moa upper at 100 yards. lee

    progressive 223 reloader??

    Anyone have any input on the best or most reliable progressive reloader for the 223/556? I have plenty of brass and bullets and powder but I don't feel like pounding out a couple thou on a single stage press. Curious as to what you fellas use? Im thinking Dillon 550B but I haven't paid the cash...

    Gunsmithing 6.5cm project

    A little scalloping wont hurt a thing. Looks good I think. I have the big Grizzly gunsmithing Lathe and its rock solid. I use a Kennametal #2 insert NTF2R to be exact and I can cut really nice threads spinning the chuck around 260. I also have a rock jag pusher but I modified mine a bit. I...

    Gunsmithing stainless action vs blued

    stainless barrels and stainless actions are quite truthfully a bad combination. Ask me how I know!! Stainless on stainless will stick and or gall, if your not extremely careful. I buy Chrome moly custom actions almost exclusively. I truly feel that the chrome moly actions are smoother, and I...

    I already have some amazingly accurate bolt rifles. several actually. I think I would like to play with something a little different this time. thanks for all the replies. I like hearing from others experiences. The new rock river X series look pretty good!! lee

    RRA Varmint vs semi custom

    I spent some time with a good dude this weekend, and he has a couple sweet varmint type AR rifles. Needless to say while shooting them I decided I want another for myself. " I currently have none." I have always liked the Rock River Predator pursuit rifles as well as the varmint rifles...
