    Replacement M700 bolts

    Does anyone know where I could get an M700 SA magnum bolt, other than PTG? I’m toying with getting a 6.5 PRC barrel to replace my 260 which is about 50% done. A custom action would be nice, but that’s not in cards for a year or two. Could I get the .473 bolt opened up? Thanks.

    I feel so much safer now...

    I am so glad the Mass Sate Police are helping prevent such heinous and lethal weapons from making it North to NH, and keeping MA so safe. Oh, wait - I can just go to Bass Pro in Hookset and buy it over the counter, or I could if the damn things were in stock. NH is 51 out of 52 states and...

    Use the expander, or not?

    I have a nice shiny new Redding type s bushing die. I see that it comes with both the normal expander and then what is is basically a threaded sleeve to hold the decapping pin and not touch the neck. My initial thought was to just use the neck bushing, but wouldn't you know, I dropped the...

    Issues resizing Lapua Brass

    So I decided to try some Lapua brass, and I'm having a few unexpected issues. When sizing the brass, the expander in the die is sticking and it is taking way more effort to size than I think it should. I know it's the expander because with it removed the operation is as smooth as silk. This...

    Anyone have the Eberlestock G2 GUNSLINGER II

    Looking for any real world comments on how well it fits a SA Remington in a chassis. It looks good on paper, but I wonder how a PRS style rifle with a pistol grip and a Vortex Razor Gen II will fit in the rifle scabbard. Thanks J.

    Remage prefit barrel vendors

    I'm looking for a remage prefit barrel and have been looking at vendors. Criterion via NSS was my first choice, but they never answer the phone and frankly leaving a voice mail and having NSS call back when it works for them isn't very convenient for me. I don't sit on my cell phone and...

    2 Actions, one chassis

    So I was planning to get 2 chassis for 2 rifles I have to replace the factory stocks which are now hindering me. Today life came along and whacked a chunk out of my slush fund so I can now only afford one. Bugger, but there are folks worse off than I, so I shan't complain. Since I can only...

    TAC21 Gen 2 Chassis

    So I've been looking at chassis to upgrade the factory original HS Precision stocks on my 700's, and I came across the TAC21, amongst many others. At first glance I kinda liked it, I liked the idea of the AR-10 type recoil path and the like. Then I started thinking about the totally enclosed...

    I've been reduced to this...

    So I was priming some brass today. I fumbled the primer tray dumping my primers on the bench. Some fell on the floor. I spent 15 minutes on my hands and knees with a flashlight looking for 3 primers. 3 frikken primers. All because I couldn't bear the thought of pulling another tray of 100...

    All in one, or RF & Kestrel

    So I'm looking into getting a rangefinder and doing some research, reading manuals and the like. Last time I did this, rangefinders were just that, LOS range. I've also kinda been living under rock for a decade (long story with some very, very low times in my life) and now find that...

    7.5x55 Swiss Load Data and GRT

    This started as a question, but the more I looked at it the more I figured out what was going on. I decided to post this anyway in case anyone has a similar question in the future. I found it interesting to run down the answer, but maybe that's just me... I'm using Gordons Reloading Tool to...

    Impact of cold on rimfire ammo

    So I was at the range today and was having very poor results wit my CZ-452. This has been a well behaved and well performing rifle in the past. But today I was getting serious vertical stringing with Wolf Match Extra and less serious stringing with Eley Club. Last time out in the late summer...

    Group size changes with target size using iron sights

    I experienced something odd at the range again today that I have noticed in the past but never quite realized what was happening. I was shooting a trio of C&R rifles, an M-1, an M-44 and a K-31. Each rifle is as issued other than the glass bedding on the M-44. With each rifle shooting at...

    Rifle Scopes Zero stop on USO ST-10?

    I'm looking on the USO website at the ST-10 and I can find any mention of zero stops on the ST-10. Can any of the USO owners here tell me if there are zero stops on elevation on the ST-10 (or any other USO scopes for that matter)? Thanks J.
