    Best bag???

    I use the Protektor medium sized leather bag with the medium ears. Whatever bag you use, make sure to use a heavy sand fill. Makes it able to do fine adjustments and hold very steady.

    Gunsmithing Cracked Bell carlson stock...

    I've done the same thing only in front of the recoil lug and on the other side. I opened it up a bit then packed in some devcon and clamped together. After the devcon set up, I sanded it down then painted it. No problems, so far.

    Lucas Custom Bore Guide!!!

    Re: Lucas Custom Bore Guide!!! I have 3 and like them very much. Having said that, I wish the solvent port was either in a different location or possibly the insert shorter so that when you add any solvent, none leaks out the back. I know, I guess I may be using too much. But I'd like to...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Elite Tactical 4.5-30 x 50mm Scope

    Re: Bushnell Elite Tactical 4.5-30 x 50mm Scope I had the 4.5-30 and just sold it a couple of months ago. My problem was that although the glass is good up to about 20-24 power, after that it seemed to fall slightly out of focus. Also, it seemed after every shot with a .308 I had to...

    Gunsmithing Can't keep barrel from spinning in vise

    Re: Can't keep barrel from spinning in vise Yeah those factory barrels can be a bitch. I've used the wooden block type and the aluminum type vises. What works the best for me after cinching the barrel down is to really smack the handle of the action wrench with either a hammer or dead blow...

    Gunsmithing Question about transferring a scope & rings to new

    Re: Question about transferring a scope & rings to new I've never had to lap rings. If you have good quality base and rings, they shouldn't need it. On the other hand, I have had to bed the base to some actions. Since you did lap your rings, you should at least mount them on your new base...
