    Gunsmithing Shorten LOP BC Medalist - I did it today.

    Re: Shorten LOP BC Medalist Battlestick, a compond miter saw works well. First off the buttpad is glued to it, and will need to be removed, ie. pryed off. Then wrap painter's tape around where you want the cut, and mark the tape. You will then line up the line on your tape, cut, and then may...

    1000yd Slug Gun (Shotgun)?

    Re: 1000yd Slug Gun (Shotgun)? Slugster only bothered because he didn't have anything else to shoot that day, as I wasn't finished with his .338 Norma at the time. He simply came out to watch us shoot, and show us his new Savage Slug Gun, and we told him to shoot it. It started as a joke, but...

    Re: muzzle brake for 5r? I normally use a Herrell's Precision Brake, or a Holland, both are about the same, and work well. Normally on 5r's I use a 1" OD, with 5/8" 24 threads.

    Anyone use a Ghillie for hunting - did it work?

    Re: Anyone use a Ghillie for hunting - did it work? If your using one to brake up your outline, on the ground, they work great, that is, if you also pay attention to scent and movement. I've been Bow Hunting on the ground, in mine, that I made in the Army, and I've had deer get within 10...

    Re: Best sandblaster I don't know about less expensive, but I just bought a New, Bad Boy Blaster 1000XLD for the shop and I love it. It's big enough to even do .408's and .50 barrels. It has a center mounted gun, a right side mounted gun, and a blow off gun on the left side. It also loads...

    Gunsmithing Re barrel remington 700

    Re: Re barrel remington 700 I agree, without going to a larger bolt fase you are somewhat limited. Although you could go a few different ways, most cartridges in the .377 base diameter are a little small, and light weight for 600 yard shooting, due to wind drift. However if you went with a...

    Gunsmithing How to clean up old, worn out action

    Re: How to clean up old, worn out action I would also recommend blasting the action. You can pic up a cheap blasting cabinet from Harbor Freight or simular store. The benchtop models are very reasonable priced. Then I would spray it down with acetone to remove any remaining oils. Be sure not...
