Hello all, Just wanted to share some pics of my recent CZ 455 refit project. Things I've done were: 1. Changed factory thinner profile barrel for the factory varmint heavy barrel. 2. Changed factory walnut stock for Boyd's laminated wood tacticool stock. 3. Pillar and skim bedded...

Hello all, Can anyone point me to where I could possibly find a factory varmint barrel in either .22lr or .17 HMR for my CZ 455? I got the American model in .22lr last year and while it shoots great, I would like to try the varmint barrel without having to go the expense of an...

Hello all, I just got my Marvel 1911 22lr Unit 2 conversion kit, and am itching to go to the range to try it out. So far upon first inspection, this looks to be a quality kit, and finish and fit is much better than my Kimber kit I sold... Anyway, Marvel recommends running either CCI...

Starting with my Kimber 1911. Am planning to get either the Wilson Combat .22 conversion kit, or the Marvel Unit 2 conversion kit. I've had the Kimber conversion kit and it was a bag of problems and would not function reliably regardless what I fed it... Anyway, wondering if anyone here has had...

Hello all, Just got Pearce grips for my P6 and tried to put them on tonight. I find that the screws I currently have (aftermarket hex screws) were not long enough to reach the frame and screw in, have others also experienced this problem before? I read quite a bit prior to buying these...

As the title says, finally got to shoot my new Howa today at Angeles Shooting Ranch in So. Cal today. It was an overcast day with the sun peeking through at times. Almost no wind, 60 - 65F temperature. I am encouraged by the results and believe this rifle has potential as long as I do my part...

Hello all, I was loading some .308 rounds using new Winchester brass, and once fired mixed stamp brass today. After everything was finished, I chambered a few rounds just to check function (loading rounds for the first time for my new Howa .308). When I chambered the rounds, the cartridge goes...

Hi all, Just wanted to share my experience with Mike Lucas who made a bore guide for my Howa 1500 .308 rifle. I had a heck of a time trying to find a bore guide that would fit in the chamber of my Howa, after trying a couple of brands of bore guides to no avail (Possum was one, can't remember...

Hi all, Not perfect but just wanted to show some results of my first ever bedding job, done for my Howa .308 on a B&C Tactical stock. Have to give special recognition to all the informative and detailed bedding tutorials on this site, they were a great help. Special thanks to Scimitar for all...

Hello all, I'm ready to shoot some duracoat tomorrow on a barreled action, and also a pistol slide. Last time I used this same Iwata airbrush I got through the job but knew I should've added some reducer to make the flow smoother. Anyway, I have bought some reducer this time but can't find...

Wanted to share some excitement, as well as some photos with you all. I personally was searching and asking for pictures of similar setups to mine so I can see certain details, and while the ones I saw and received were helpful, they weren't what I was exactly looking for, so I hope my pics will...

Hello all, I had a first hand experience watching my smith trying to remove a blued Howa barrel from a blued action yesterday... A proper barrel bushing was used, including an almost four feet long cheater bar on a action wrench, and at the end no barrel was removed and we ended up just cut the...

Hello all, Jeff @ USO is waiting for my answer on which reticule I want since they are ready to install the erector in my new USO. Which reticule would you prefer and why? Scope is SN3 3.2-17x TPAL, 44mm objective, 35mm tube. I've had a USO in Mil-GAP and liked it for its simplicity and...

Hello all, Here are some pics of the first ever Krylon job I tried on my Howa barreled action and factory bottom metal. The bolt knob and the exposed portions of the bolt body still needs to be painted flat black, just waiting for paint to show up today. So far it has been easy to apply but the...
