    375 cheytac loads?

    Gunsmithing Any do it yourself to smoothen a bolt?

    Re: Any do it yourself to smoothen a bolt? BigBro, Yes, it is perfectly safe to have a case in there while you are cycling the action. Just periodically check to see if you are getting any build up of brass shavings that need to be cleaned out in the process. Scott

    375/408 Custom question

    Re: 375/408 Custom question TB, If you do decide to use the 350 gr. solid projectile, it requires a specific bore/groove dimension. Shilen does not offer that. You would have to go to Lawton for that. Scott

    375 chey tac load questions

    375 chey tac load questions

    Re: 375 chey tac load questions BlackWidow, It has been my experience that full caliber solids like the 350 grain Jamison bullets like to have a run at the lands. You can have a significant pressure spike if the bullet is close to or touching the lands. Solids do not deform or swage like a...
