    Any recommendations to re-finish the coating of a rifle

    I shipped a rifle to the end user and two large documents inside the rifle covered in plastic rubbed the receiver of the rifle and this resulted in cosmetic damage to the finish. The rifle was shipped in a Pelican case. Any idea who may be able to refinish the receiver of the rifle. Looking...

    Reloading 12.7x108mm

    Total newbie re-loader. RCC has brass but it is real expensive. Domestically it is very difficult to find any ammo. The two domestic suppliers are in no rush to sell any. I have not yet purchased any dies for this. The dies are expensive and it may not even be worth it to buy the dies...

    Cz52 remove barrel assembly from stock

    I am attempting to remove the barrel assembly with receiver from the stock. With the bayonet folded to the stock I took a nail and pushed in the hole. At the same time I pushed the sleeve (over the barrel) forward and it moved about a 1/4 of an inch forward towards the muzzle. It is...

    12.7x108mm (R)

    Ideal barrel length and twist rate. The caliber is not listed on the CIP table. The only information I found online, is with Snipex, Zvi, and Zastava Arms. Yes, it is great that school is out and I have some extra time on my hands. What is the ideal twist rate for the barrel ? Thanks for...

    Question about a .50 cal bolt face

    Does the 12.7x99 and 12.7x108 (R) have the same bolt face dimensions ? I wanted to explore options and consider a custom 12.7x108mm barrel. Yes, high school is out and kids have a lot of spare time. Thanks for your interest.

    Night Vision PVS-30 buy back or commercial AN/PVS-24

    Which is the superior product - AN/PVS-30 used buy back or new commercial AN/PVS-24. I 'assume' it is the used PVS-30 buy back. Would mount on a .308 bolt rifle with a SuB PM II 3-20x50 full size, with MSR.

    A NOOB re-loader wants to avoid damaging a bolt action rifle

    I have started buying quality reloading components a little bit at a time. Rock chucker, case cleaner, and the .338 LM Lapua brass closeout from Midway. I probably will need another year or two before I begin reloading. A gunsmith posted in some thread (can't find it) where he...

    Rifle Scopes K318i and Hensoldt 3-12x56 FF

    The Hensoldt 3-12x56 FF has excellent glass and I understand it is easy to get behind - has a forgiving eyebox. This has a clean basic Mil-dot reticle. What about the much more modern Kahles K318i with a MSR or SKMR3 reticle. I have not looked at either scopes. I have owned...

    Scope choice 50 BMG

    With a Steyr HS 50-M1 scope options. I am interested in a scope that can take the recoil from the fifty. I am not looking for a scope, to squeeze precision out of the fifty round. What about this unusual scope - the Trijicon ACOG fixed 6x with the .50BMG reticle. On the top rail...

    6.5 Creedmoor - barrel life - semi auto

    I read threads about 6.5 Creed bolt action barrel life. Typically, it appears 2,500 rounds before the barrel is relegated to hunting. Stupid question - with a semi auto 20" barrel I can expect similar barrel life ? The groups will begin to open up after 2,500 rounds ? Not looking...

    barrel life - 6.5 Creedmoor vs 300 Norma Mag

    All things being about equal - which setup will have the longer barrel life ? 300 Norma Mag 1/8 26" 6.5 Creedmoor 1/8 26" No HOT ammo. Probably just factory loads. Which spare barrel should be chosen ? No need for a new bolt with either choice.

    Simple Q - .300 Norma Mag with .338 LM action

    I 'assume' you can use a .300 Norma Mag with a .338 LM action where a quick change barrel, is an option. Same bolt face, as the .338 LM ? Just like a 6.5 Creedmoor and a .308 WIN.

    How much torque to apply to the scope mount nut

    ERA-TAC does not recommend an amount of torque to apply to the nuts. The scope I have, is a 5-25x56 Schmidt and Bender illuminated PM II. How much torque do you apply to the side nut when mounting the 34mm ERA-TAC mount, to the rifle ? What about applying torque to the screws when...
