    Sometimes things…….

    ……….just really work as you want them to. Since the B14r heavy worked out so well I went further down the Bergara rabbit hole with this BMR. Have a particular use in mind and it’s doing exactly what I need it to do. Went ahead and did the factory trigger mod which is now set at 20oz. Bedded...

    Well gents……

    Cleaning up the leade question….

    I’ll go ahead and open myself to the seeming requisite to be ridiculed for using a bore scope. Get it out of your system, you’ll feel better…..😏 Have seen a couple posts about some rather shitty chambers produced by Bergara in the heavy barreled actions. After a couple positive range sessions I...

    So, with the new tariffs…..

    Will the forecasted price on the new Athlon chronographs be higher? Anyone know of a vendor that has them in stock yet?

    Tuners and short, stout barrels….

    Did a cursory search and came up empty… Is there a point in rifle barrel profile and length where a tuner won’t function? Having a 20” Krieger HV profile 6BR put together. Is there any point in trying a tuner?

    Alpha 6br Norma

    So, since Lapua 6br brass has become difficult to find how does the Alpha stack up next to it? Never used anything Alpha so I have no firsthand experience of the quality.

    Trauma kit advice…

    Yes, I did a search and THIS thread came up. In it, QuikClot was mentioned but all I see it offered in are some pretty large strips. I would like to know if the BleedStop powder is good for small wounds. Fucked up and managed to run a blade about an inch deep into the soft tissue between my...

    Bergara set up as a single shot…

    Looking to get into a Bergara but have zero interest in a dbm set up. Just don’t have a use or desire. Plan on buying just the barreled action. I have a McM A3 sitting here I’d like to use. I’ve seen the single shot mag replacement block and figured I could just adapt that to work with my non...

    Gifted something kinda cool….

    First off let me state that these are not for sale, I’m not fishing for PMs to sell. If they ever come up for sale I’ll have a green name and they’ll be posted below. Was given these from a dealer as he won’t sell reloads. He knows I have the facilities to pull them down for components. They...

    Primer pocket swage….Dillon 550

    Has anyone used one of these in their 550? Primer pocket swage Using this while running military crimped primer brass through the trimmer seems like a good way to kill 2 birds with one stroke of the press.

    Maggie’s SCI channel funny….

    Was watching a show this morning discussing “stolen” artwork. Screen shots of them displaying some of it…. .…..then…… …….yes, my inner 14yr old found this funny…..

    New prefix for Bear Pit threads

    If memory serves me there used to be a DIY prefix in the past. Would it be asking too much to have that back. We have multiple DIY type threads currently and it would make finding them easier. Thanks..

    Night Vision Nightforce 2.5-10x32 compact…..

    What do I need to use/have to untilize the night vision reticles. It has 2 settings on the illumination adjustment dial. I have a chance to do some after dark coyote hunting but have no idea how or if I can use this scope. I have no experience with anything night vision related so be gentle………😏

    Cerakote durability…..

    I’m looking to rehab a table saw that has a painted/coated finish on the top. Would Cerakote wear well in this application and if not what would be a better option? Powder coating is available locally too but I’m concerned with the thickness…

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Pistol smith to install sights

    Seeing as a good number of the links listed above are no longer valid I’l start this thread. Looking for a smith to install a set of Bomar style target sights on a 1911 slide. Slide will need to be machined. Possibly a re-blue after install. Who do you recommend?

    Tikka UPR stock…

    Had one of these come in for a paint job, never handled one before. The line down the middle that bisects the stock is different than anything I’ve seen before. Is this typical of Tikka / Sako composite stocks? Is it strong, stable enough? Other than the curious construction it’s pretty...

    Gunsmithing Teslong with 4.5” monitor....

    Anyone using the borescope with their monitor? I like the thought of not having to download anything into my phone to use the scope. Anything else to be concerned about?

    Savage / Magpul question...

    First off let me say that I don’t know shit of anything Savage. If this is something simple and I need a beating for asking go ahead...... Had a buddy bring this Savage 10 BAS by this afternoon to see if I could see if there was a way to shorten up the LOP. As it sits now it’s damn near...

    Scope testing fixture...

    Been intrigued with real world testing of the tracking of my scopes. Have seen several different fixtures used and decided I needed one......🙄. The base came from an old Caldwell Rock front rest. The top plate is a piece of 2” C channel. The angled braces are 1/8”x 1/2” mild steel. The...

    Suppressors Well, fuck me runnin......

    Looks like a baffle let go in my Harvestor causing a bullet strike. Difficult to get a clear pic of the internal damage.... Been nothing but happy with this thing. Hopefully SiCo can repair it and get it back in service. Anyone ever have to send one back to them for repair?
