    Distinguished Expert

    Re: Distinguished Expert Eley is some good stuff. You can spend over $100 a brick for the higher grade rimfire ammo. Have a friend who had a case of Eley. He ended up giving me 8 bricks of it when he saw me shoot some really small groups with it out of my Remington 40X and Winchester 52D...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Crossfire: Need opinions on setup

    Re: Vortex Crossfire: Need opinions on setup Put a Vortex Crossfire on my .308 Win. Remington 700 PSS the other day and under recoil the groups creep upward. I would see the elevation knob move off position after random shots. Emailed SWFA about it and hope to get it exchanged.

    Gunsmithing Remington 700 ejector stuck in bolt. *GOT IT!!*

    Re: Remington 700 ejector stuck flush in bolt. Success!!! Came home this morning thinking I should add some shock force to the bolt to encourage some additional movement on that stuck ejector. I have been soaking it with the copper remover too. I have been using a small phillips...

    Gunsmithing Remington 700 ejector stuck in bolt. *GOT IT!!*

    Re: Remington 700 ejector stuck flush in bolt. Tried kroil and that didn't seem to help. Have moved on to Hoppes copper cleaner and will give that a few days. I have been plunging it in and out (as little as it moves) with a punch, but still stuck in so far. I suppose sooner or later the...

    Gunsmithing Remington 700 ejector stuck in bolt. *GOT IT!!*

    Had a round that was too hot and got blown primer and the brass flowed into the ejector. Case came out fine but would not eject out of the chamber. I'm guessing some brass shaving must be holding the ejector in somehow. What is the best way to free it up again? I can push it in just enough...

    Rifle Scopes how are the vortex crossfire 6-24x50 for 99dollars

    Re: how are the vortex crossfire 6-24x50 for 99dollars Got to fire my CMP 40X the past week with the Vortex Crossfire on it. I like it, but the target knobs have a lot of play in them. Still nicer than the Simmons Whitetail Classic that was on it before and it cost the same. Crosshair is a...

    XL650 reloading issues

    Re: XL650 reloading issues Could be the brass is military and has crimped primers. You will need to look and separate those and get the crimp out before priming. Probably easier to chuck them if you don't have too many of them in the mix.
