    How do you Primer Pocket Uniform?

    Sitting here staring at about 700 new 6.5 Creedmoor brass pieces and have my Sinclair primer pocket uniformer in a quick detach housing along with my power screwdriver. I typically do them by hand and have the brass shavings fall into white terry cloth towel while watching a movie. After going...

    Interesting problem with Surgeon 591/R action. Pics included, would like feedback.

    I am having an interesting problem with a Surgeon 591/R action that I purchased a couple of years back. In the action area where the bolt rides the action to disengage from battery, the steel seems to have a soft spot in it that has created a divot. The divot has been growing over time and is...

    6mm Creedmoor Cartridge for Quickload

    Has anybody built a 6mm Creedmoor spec for Quickload? I'm running the latest v3.8 of Quickload and the cartridge is not listed. I know that you can create custom cartridges in this but wanted to tap the SH wisdom to see if anybody has done this yet.

    Gunsmithing 6XC in an autoloading LMT MWS?

    I've been playing around with the concept of a 6mm cartridge in an LMT MWS gas gun. As I've been perusing the various cartridges for the build, the standard 243 Win seems too long, the 6x47 and 6mm Creedmoor require brass to be made from their 6.5 counterparts (a time killer), which has me...

    Gunsmithing Surgeon 591/R vs 591/WSM stock inlet?

    Need a bit of advice from those that have worked on both the Surgeon 591/R and 591/WSM actions. Are the bottoms entirely identical and have the same inlet for fitting in a McMillan stock?

    AR308 Magazine Recommendation

    The Magpul Pmag LR20's are nice, but I'm looking for some 10 round mags for my LMT MWS rifle (DPMS pattern). I see that DPMS makes a 10 round 308 Win steel magazine that is well regarded but I see that AR-Stoner seems to be making some as well that include an anti-tilt follower. Does anybody...

    7 SAUM freebore recommendations in a short action

    I'm in the process of building a 7 SAUM on a Surgeon 591R short action. I'll be shooting the 7mm Sierra 180gr Matchkings and the 7mm Berger 180gr Hybrid bullets. I am looking into a finishing reamer for the project and could really use some freebore dimension recommendations that would be...

    Geissele, Timney, and Wilson Trigger Review for AR

    I just ran through a personal comparison of the various two-stage and single stage triggers in my AR15s and LR308s. For the two stage triggers, I looked at the Geissele Hi-Speed DMR, LMT two stage, and RRA National Match. The single stages included the Timney 3lbs single stage, the Timney 4lbs...

    Ultra high AR rings with built in cant exist?

    Working on a new LMT MWS setup and was thinking through the ring setup. Does anybody make ultra high rings (~1.4" high) that are two piece setups with built in cant (20 MOA)? I know there are some one piece setups (KAC comes to mind) but was really more interested in a Seekins or Badger like...

    Opinions for Harris bipod on Picatinny Rail w QD

    I'm looking to connect a Harris bipod to a picatinny railed foreend. I'd also like QD capability to move the bipod from rifle to rifle. I'm also looking for something that doesn't add a lot of additional height to the overall setup. I've looked at the LaRue and ADM mounts but they seemed to...

    Load for 308Win with Lapua 155 & Varget or H4895

    I recently rebarreled my 308 Win rifle to a 27" Bartlein Heavy Palma and plan on continuing to shoot Lapua 155 Scenars. I've been playing around in Quickload with various powders and have been exploring switching from Varget to H4895. From the data, it looks like H4895 will provide a bit...

    Need recommendation... Soft Case/Drag Bag for 50"

    I was hoping you guys might point me in the right direction. I have a 243 Win rifle that is rather long. It has a 27" barrel with thruster brake in a McMillan A5 with adjustable LOP to 13.75". With the above, it makes the rifle 49" long. For the life of me, I can't find an adequate soft...

    Any issues loading 338 Lapua with Forster Co-Ax?

    I load using a Forster Co-Ax and have lots of experience loading 260 Ackley and 243 Win pretty long. I'm becoming interested in loading up 338 Lapua using any of the high BC bullets out there (berger 300gr, scenar 300gr, etc). Any issues using a Co-Ax to load this cartridge? I'm planning on...
