    Gunsmithing Best portable gun vice

    Good bench vices aren't easily stowable. The definition of good starts with heavy.

    New Sig CROSS

    None of which use barrel extensions. Winchester WSM's haven't had 1" threads in a lot of years. There's a reason they changed.

    For the Fury or next Gen? I don't know.

    I can't answer that question. Until it is SAAMI listed I don't know what the pressure specs are. Any action that is currently capable of running a WSM or SAUM safely should be good.

    It's basically the same as a Fix. That and other reasons you'll never see a Fix with a magnum bolt face.

    So you want to run a SAUM or WSM in a barrel with a 1" diameter threaded tenon? Think about that for a moment.

    New Sig CROSS

    I don't think you will ever see a magnum bolt face. The architecture isn't large enough to handle the stresses. You can't fool Mother Nature.

    I'm sure there will be bits of pic rail that you can mount anywhere you want.

    Gunsmithing Are All Headspace Gauges Created Equal ?

    There is a +/- tolerance that is allowed by SAAMI. So to answer your question. No they probably wouldn't measure the same.

    I'll have barrel extensions soon. "Stay tuned for news", as Paul Harvey used to say. I need to amend this. "Soon" being sometime in the next couple of ......

    Gunsmithing Bighorn Origin (Still/Stuck Bolt) All of a Sudden

    Take two rounds that are causing the problem. Pull the bullet and dump the powder. Strip your bolt then start sizing the case and trying it in the rifle. I have never setup a FL die by using numbers. I take two cases, maybe three. Start with one and creep down with the sizing die until the bolt...

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    It takes time looking at a lot of barrels to be able to interpret what your seeing. Remember Kevin Costner in Robinhood? The first time he first looked through the spy glass that Morgan Freeman had.

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    Undersize wouldn't explain the hump/wave at the end of the freebore. You're talking millionths of an inch here. It could be from lapping. I see it all the time. Sometimes a crazy pattern. Uniform but crazy. Just shoot it.

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    Your barrel is not perfectly round in the groove. So the start of the lead angle is hitting the high spot. Not uncommon. I'd be more concerned with the ragged looking edge on the the land in the upper part of the picture.

    208 or 225 ELD Match for .300 Win Mag at 1 Mile

    Shoot the most accurate bullet with enough BC to get the job done. If it's not accurate high BC's will just get you closer misses.
