    Gunsmithing R700 serial number 239587 manufacture date?

    Re: R700 serial number 239587 manufacture date? I would say mid Oct to Dec of 66. I have a 236,XXX with a barrel date code of 9/66. However, there are a few knowitalls here who I am sure are always willing to argue just for the sake of another post and argueing with someone they don't know or...

    Gunsmithing Anyone make their own headspace gauges?

    Re: Anyone make their own headspace gauges? bohem I have found a few rounds of new factory brass up to .010 under a full length sized case. If you were referring to my comment it was in regards to NEW brass being too SHORT and not too LONG! Also not all manufacturers sell consistent new...

    Gunsmithing Anyone make their own headspace gauges?

    Re: Anyone make their own headspace gauges? Guess I just don't understand why/how people can justify the cost of a $300+ barrel blank, $140+ if they buy a piloted reamer and other expensive chit but then want a 'cheap' means of measuring CORRECT chamber depth. That measurement alone if done...

    Old Remington 700 question

    Re: Old Remington 700 question The early 700's in 264 and 7mm Mag used stainless barrels, that is why the finish looks as it does. I think even the 300 I can't remember for sure. Stainless can't be blued so a different chemical/process was used that wasn't really good on stainless or chrome...

    Old Remington 700 question

    Re: Old Remington 700 question It is the way the 721/722 and early 700's were machined on the rear bridge. Remington quit cutting the rear bridge like that in later 65 or early 66, definetly before SN 2XX,XXX. I beleive a couple of companys made a fixture that fastened to receiver with rear 2...

    Curiosity has Landed !

    Re: Curiosity has Landed ! I will call BS, they landed it in the breaks on USFS grasslands just 15 miles south of town. That is why there is a pic of a 'squatch' in the background on 1 photo! Drove down and looked it over this morning, can't believe it has Firestone 500 tires on it...

    Gunsmithing How do I remove checkering on an ADL stock?

    Re: How do I remove checkering on an ADL stock? The wood is compressed so much from the impression that steam don't do much. A small dent from bumping it against something harder doesn't compare to the pressure used from a machine. The impression also pushes the stain etc deeper into the wood...

    Bill of sale for an out of state pistol sale

    Re: Bill of sale for an out of state pistol sale They probably want something in hand to prove where they got it, however they can get a receipt of purchase through the FFL they use. That would be more legit and more credible then something from an individual I would sure think. Any issues...

    Rem 700 bolt w/ short shroud

    Re: Rem 700 bolt w/ short shroud Weellllllll, this is what I came up with using a new shroud off a spare bolt I had. Sorry it took so long I had to dig and couldn't find nothing but the short one pictured so tore a new assembly apart from a spare bolt. If it might meet your needs PM me an...
