    Gunsmithing Chambering options for Savage 110 small shank action

    My friend has a Savage small shank 110 in 270. He wants to re-barrel to a 300 WM. Will the small shank 110 action work with 300WM. I know it would need a new bolt face and follower.

    fake scout sniper?

    New guy at church claims to be a retired scout sniper with 235 kills. I think that is a bunch of crap. I know he is retired military and spent time in a VA hospital from a road side bomb, but 235 Kills, really? is there a way to see what his real service was?

    Tell me about Anschutz 64 and 1416

    What is the difference between these rifles besides about $300? I am looking for a great shooting 22 with a really nice trigger. Nice trigger = light, crisp, no takeup, creep or overtavel. I looked at a 1416 in 17 cal (can't rememer the model number mayber 1517?) and the trigger had 0 takeup...

    Would it do any good to ask Rem. or Sav. to build:

    A 22 rifle based on the 700 or a model 10. All parts possible to be interchangeable with the classic rifles but in a repeating 22 with 5 and 10 round mags. Just imagine the incredible rifles you could build off of these rifles. There is really no reason it should cost more than a 700 or model 10...

    In discussions about the neck diameter of a loaded cartridge vs. the neck diameter of a chamber, I am seeing references to “Doughnuts”. Can someone enlighten me on what these “doughnuts” are?

    Gunsmithing No turn neck size question?

    I am planning on building a 6BR Norma. I do not want to trim necks. There is a little difference in opinion about what size neck to get even if you want a no turn neck. So what I intend to do is to put together some loaded rounds to determine the neck diameter. Then I will have a starting point...

    We were at the range today shooting .22’s off the bench at 100 yards. I had the rifles zeroed pretty well. We were trying to shoot pennies off the top of a 2x4. We were managing to hit one every 4 or 5 shots. A very light rain storm rolls in and both .22’s rifles started hitting about 2” low...
