    7mm Remington Magnum Users

    Excellent chambering. You made a good choice. Retumbo, 162 AMAXs, 168, 180 Bergers, Fed 215s are where you want to start.

    Gunsmithing My first rifle build

    Looks great!!!!! SBH, The relief by the shoulder is to remove or "lower" the radius left by the turning tool. I do the same thing, though mine are a bit smaller. As for the big thread relief, Ive had a few through my shop that were done that way. They worked fine. I generally thread one turn...

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Funny had a 700, Stiller, Surgeon, etc needed a cleaning rod to get back up and running it would have been a "failure". FACT... Awe, now it's an after market barrel to blame. Of course.

    Frank, Toss all the stupid rain pictures you want. I've shot in them too. Plenty. Had some troubles in some and none in others.

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Self, You describe a problem I've encountered with my Remingtons and alot of others. Moreover, with Engine22s account with the same AI. Blown primer + extraction failure = failure. I'd sure call it that in any rifle I built, Rem 700 or whatever.

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    You imply that the rifle was not properly cleared/ cleaned after popping primers. Wrong again. Before you say that I didn't mention that, guess I would give you the benefit of the doubt that you didn't think the the match DO, and ROs were a bunch of bumbling retards. They weren't...

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    I am exaggerating nothing. Feel free to point out where I implied that it was a common problem. I have not said a negative word about AI or salvage for that matter. I simply stated that they all can take a shit. You are putting words in my mouth and purely speculating. I was at the match...

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    It did blow primers. Several of them. Then at one point in became inoperable. I don't know what is so damn hard for you understand about that.

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Wow. The butt hurt over this is amazing. Frank, I don't care what you call it. Using the AI was part of a stage of fire at a match, it went down, the stage had to be modified to instead use our own rifle for the whole stage. Again, I didnt inspect the rifle, nor did I or do I care what...

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Wet ammo/chamber is what made the AI go down. I do no know what the actual mechanical issues that rendered it inoperable as I didn't inspect the rifle. Moral of the story is they all can take a shit at the most inopportune time. You can take your trollish comments and stuff 'em.

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Shooting matches over the years I've seen all of them puke, from Salvage to AI.

    Catastrophic Failure

    Without seeing the front half the case, its hard to say. I dont think its an ammuntion /pressure problem. I feel its an unsupported case issue; either short tenon, extremely excessive counterbore, or wrong lug during final assembly. In any of those scenarios, it concerns me that the builder...

    Gunsmithing Is this bolt toast?

    Waste of $200. Send the bolt to GreTan Rifles and have it bushed. Fix the pitting and fix the exessive firing pin to pin hole tolerance that Remington is well known for- all in one shot. I think the charge is less than $100.
