    Bartlein New Barrel Material 400MODBB

    Less is better. I tried a 14-10. Wildest damn thing I ever shot. It would puke shots 16" at 1K .5-.75 gain

    Private long range backstop maintenance help

    One thing that will help spotting impacts is to cover the berm with rock dust from the local quarry. When wet sometimes it's tough to see 6MM splashes but anything bigger isn't a problem. I have not used it past 1K but anything is better than dirt.

    Gunsmithing One shot before she goes in the trash

    If you install the mag box in the action and then install the barreled action in the stock is there a gap between the BDL floor plate and the bottom of the mag box? You can check that by just opening the floor plate and taking a look. The BDL floor plate should capture and support the bottom of...

    Precision Rifle Gear McMillan

    Jesus Christ guys. Isn't there more important things in the our lives at moment than to F'n speculate about the future of McMillan. Did yesterday not put anything in focus. Words matter. Give the man a chance. The same good people are still working there. I apologize for the language.

    Help please! Remington 700 .223 Ackley Improved

    Cycle them through the action. It would be difficult for you to determine but the primer pockets maybe expanded making the brass unsuitable for reloading. If you have someone to reload for you they can determine whether the brass is useable.

    Help please! Remington 700 .223 Ackley Improved

    Make sure it fits that rifle. From the sound of it there's a chance he could of had others.

    AI AX vs Barrett MRAD: Which is better and why?

    Pressure is measured in pounds per square inch. Larger diameter pins can be problematic because of this. It can be somewhat managed by the fit of the pin in the bolt and to some degree the shape of tip. I'll add you can't fool Mother Nature. More pressure means more potential problems. If you...

    AI AX vs Barrett MRAD: Which is better and why?

    Recommending an AI over the MRAD is like picking out a girl friend for your best friend. It's a waste of time and never turns out well because it's all your fault when things go sideways. I recently had the pleasure of spinning up an MRAD 300 NM barrel. The rifle shoots extremely well. Here's...

    BAT Igniter Action..?

    It's not fancy but it's still a BAT. Buy with confidence. Sliding plate extractor which keeps the ejection angle in a good spot. Prefits are not a problem. His actions are held to very close tolerances. I don't know whether it has a screw in ignition system or the bayonet type. My BR rifle is...

    Gunsmithing Bartlein 400 moddb barrels (Gunsmiths)

    I charge the same price. In time it may or may not prove out that there is increased reamer wear and require an up charge but I doubt it will come to that in my shop. With reamer cost of $3.00-$3.50 per chamber for a HSS reamer I don't see it affecting the bottom line.

    Gunsmithing Chambering your own barrel.

    First I would recommend getting a piece of 1 1/4" 12L14 steel. I have a piece I use when starting a new projects just to make sure my programs are correct. Make a couple of trial runs turning, treading and cutting the counterbore. Get comfortable duplicating the required dimensions . Then focus...
