    Tooling marks in MWS barrel

    Re: Counterboring inside the muzzle of a barrel. Have done many a piloted counterbore job on target barrels, deep as you like, get the right tool for the job, or just cut the barrel back and recrown.

    .300 win mag vs. .300 WSM once again...

    Re: bell & carlson vs mcmillan macs are much better quality than the BC's, though BC has come a long way emulating much of what HS Precision has put out the door. BC ain't quite HS for quality, and HS has it's own issues as well as the fact they don't offer the variety of Macs. But a stock...
