    Need press to be removable. What are you using?

    I use a piece of 2x12" about 18" long. Drill holes in one end and mount the press on it, lay the other end on top of a table and use two c-clamps to clamp it down. Works like a champ. I use it to load in my motel room after a day of prairie dog shooting, getting ready for the next day.

    Rifle Scopes rotary dovetail mounts...

    I've never had any trouble with them not being tight enough, either with the leupold dual dovetail versions or burris dual dovetails. Where many people mess up is by trying to separate the rings/bases and use them again. Once you twist them in they're a mated set, they're not made to take...

    Gunsmithing Timing a muzzlebrake

    Just use a crush washer unless you're worried about how it looks, it's the easiest way and costs about $2. I'd disagree that the torque will distort the bore, it takes a lot of torque to distort the bore and you'll never hit that with a crush washer unless you bottom it out, which defeats the...

    Gander Mountain Bolt gun find wow

    That's one of the benefits to us of Gander Mountain employing McDonald's fry cooks behind the gun counter. Most of the time Gander Mountain is so outrageous on their gun prices it'll make you fall over laughing just looking at them. However, most of their clerks have a hard enough time...

    Solid copper bullets

    For hunting they're great, for target shooting don't bother. They're not target bullets and aren't designed as such. On-game performance is a huge part of a hunting bullet's design criteria and gnat's azz accuracy usually takes a backseat to that. I'm not saying that hunters don't demand an...

    Concentricity Gauge how important?

    I use the sinclair model and find that it has really helped my accuracy. How much it'll help you depends upon how straight the ammo you're loading now is. If you're already loading straight ammo then the gauge will do nothing for you. If your ammo is crooked like some of mine was then it'll...

    IMR 4350 question??? Some showed up at my fishing tackle shop.

    $25 is a decent price, $35 is way too high. IMR4350 is a very versatile powder, just about right for a .260 with most bullet weights. It's one of the most popular powders out there.

    Different powders for target or hunting?

    Where did you come up with that idea? The accubond is one of the best hunting bullets made. The Berger target bullets aren't recommended for hunting because they don't expand reliably, they have a tendency to pencil through the animal without expanding which leaves a small wound channel...

    Rifle Scopes Condition of "Demo Units" From Cameraland

    I've bought two demo products from them, a Swarovski PH 2.5-10x56 scope and a pair of zen ray binos. Both were brand new for all practical purposes, there was no way you could tell they'd ever been out of the box. I wouldn't hesitate a second to buy a demo product from them. The only...

    Questions about brass (warning stupid question)

    The dent's aren't going to hurt anything, they'll blow right out next firing. The ejector swipe is kind of a pain but I'd imagine you could clean them up with a swipe of a file or some sandpaper, a bit of work but usable I'm sure. It looks like hole the ejector rides in might have a sharp edge...

    Any idea when we might see H4350 again?

    Same in my home town. The local gun shop got in about 50 lbs a couple of weeks ago. Reasonably priced too.

    Rifle Scopes New Gun New Scope, looking for rail and rings reccomendation, Savage and Sightron SIII

    I've got the same combo with a millett 20 moa rail and low burris xtreme tactical rings, there's plenty of clearance under the objective. More than I'd like actually. If you have a rail then low rings are plenty high enough for a 56mm scope.

    How close to mount scope?

    1/4" is plenty, far more than you really need. No worries.

    My Freebore brings all the boys to the yard said the Remington lawyer.

    You need to pull them and start over. Work up a new load in the new barrel, don't shoot handloads that you originally worked up in the factory barrel in your new barrel. Most custom barrels are going to be a bit tighter and have a tighter chamber than a factory barrel which means you'll have...
