    Old Brass vs. New Brass

    I probably knew this at some point, but I have not done much long range in the last two years I got out to a Field Precision match a weekend or two ago. Three strings of fire of 20 rounds at 600 yards. String 1 and 2 were shot with brand new Lapua brass with my normal load. String 3 was...

    Gunsmithing Painting/coating the bolt ???

    Hi folks: I have a new rifle that needs to have the bolt coated. Planning to have a buddy do it in Duracoat. When one paints the bolt, do you do the whole thing, or do you tape off the lugs and bolt face? Thanks for any help.

    Suppressors Minimum length for suppressed 223?

    Is there a generally accepted minimum length for a 223 if you are going to let it wear a suppressor? For instance is it a really bad idea to put a can on a 7 inch pistol??? Thanks!
