    Lapua Testing - Midas vs Center-X

    From what I read on the website it seems Mesa is the best option right now. The Ohio location appears to be booked out solid for around the next 4-5 months.

    Carbon ring removal

    High marks from me for JB but the Iosso bore paste in the tube is even better.

    we need a crying orkan meme

    Although I knew what rifles were and had some knowledge of their use, 30 years ago I was "just a pistol" guy. Some good friends at our gun range got me interested in short-range BR, the accuracy game of games. At every match the wind flags outnumbered not only shooters but rounds fired by all...

    Lapua Testing - Midas vs Center-X

    Glad you asked that cuz I was wondering too. Surely those who have tested there know what it means.

    Carbon ring removal

    Witches Brew works well on carbon rings but I have found IOSSO Gunbrite to work the very best. It will really clean and polish out a throat.

    Carbon ring removal

    I have a bottle. First, it works. That out of the way, I don not use it "religiously" for any cleaning job. If you have a barrel that has been shot a good bit without any maintenance then Witches Brew is a go-to. It will clean out all the copper and carbon and leave you with a barrel that is...

    Lapua Testing - Midas vs Center-X

    I have both C-X and SKLR in a couple different lots. They look identical right down to the ID markings on the case head. I subjected a batch of each to rim thickness and weight sorting and they sorted out much differently. The rim thickness of C-X had less variance and the weight did as well. I...

    Bergara B14R Bolt striker spring

    Well, the real problem as I see it is that the bolt is two-piece. The Ruger 77/22 is two-piece and no matter how much you spend on tinkering with them they will never be a Vudoo. Of course, just my opinion. I have read, IIRC, that even a small amount of dry-fire will cause the B14R firing...

    Bergara B14R Bolt striker spring

    I looked at his FB page for CPR and he posted on January 6 that he had a heart attack. It gives a phone number and name of a guy to contact in the meantime. No indication of what the kit costs but watching the video makes it seem like an easy job.

    Savage QC Sucks

    QC in the mass produced firearms industry is nothing more than making sure the damn thing goes bang without blowing up. Sure, there are certain things over that but it isn't anything nearly as detailed as what you (and I) want it to be. The largest QC mark for the company I worked for was...

    What is this new UPS faggotry?

    Update on the Fedex dump in Alabama. The packages were traced back to a driver who admitted to dumping them over several trips because he was "distressed over the death of a family member". The Blount County Sheriff's office swore out a warrant for said driver after Fedex supplied the name...

    Gun ranges, Montgomery Alabama

    SAT-C and Pleasant Hill are not public ranges. I know for sure Pleasant Hill is not set up for memberships or open to anyone except by invitation. Brocks Gap is a members only range but membership is open at this time. You may apply by going to their website Brocksgap.com

    RCBS bullet puller Mod for COAX press

    As it turns out Forster offers the same die body (using the same collets) with the rod or with a nut. The later is designated Universal and states it is for use with the CoAx press. Unfortunately mine is the former but I did find the Universal in-stock at Midsouth and order one. I am pretty sure...

    Does anyone know if this same cam lever works with Forster puller? That is the one I have.

    Vudoo Mag in Bergara?

    Have only shot about 150 thru the B14R so far, as my Vudoo gets the majority of work. I will say the Vudoo I had (sold to a buddy) that I put in a Bravo functions perfectly and I understand the tolerances from action to action and mag to mag can make a difference. I like the MPA chassis mag...

    Vudoo Mag in Bergara?

    Okay, then you are GTG. KRZG states as follows: *We do not guarantee the proper function of Bergara B-14r (rimfire) mags in our chassis. That tells me I should expect it but instead be delighted if I get lucky enough for it to work.

    Vudoo Mag in Bergara?

    I bought my barreled action from A&8 but he had no mags. I did some searching and found them at Eurooptic.
