    Neck turning

    I almost bought a handheld neck turning setup a while back but then realised I had a little more accurate machine to do it already sitting in the workshop. Some new necked down Remington 7 SAUM brass below being turned for .002" clearance for the original GAP 6.5 4S reamer:

    Gunsmithing AW magazine inlet

    This is a bit of a blast from the past. I lost my old login with the changes on the forum but that was me. Yes, I got the rifle finished using the AW mags, it took a bit of work changing the shape of the mag lips so it fed spot on but it came up really well:

    MDT AICS Mags and BR Kits

    I made some insides for a 5 and 10 round MDT mag last week for my Tikka, I've been using the HRD AW kits in my other rifle with a Stiller action but obviously the AW Mags don't work in the Tikka.
