    Brass issue

    I'm getting a ring imprinted on my brass that only goes half way around the case. This happens after firing. It is not present when it first comes out of the FL sizing die. It appears after firing leading me to think that the rifle chamber may be causing the blemish to appear. Image of sized...

    Gunsmithing Bushing a firing pin......

    Why not just machine a larger diameter firing pin to make the fit tolerances tighter as to not allow primer flow? I know I must be missing something obvious. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Pix of a recent trip to the reclaimed strip mine where my brother and I shoot long range. We can stretch it out to 1800 yds but on this day we were only shooting 1000 since the winds were so strong and crazy. My hands and body were so cold after we were done, I forgot to take pix of the...
