    Mauser m18 6.5 Creedmoor handload accuracy?

    I have one I just figured they must be pretty crappy since the price I paid when they first came out was $699.00 and now you can get one for $399.00.

    Mauser m18 6.5 Creedmoor handload accuracy?

    Yeah, I've tried one load wasn't too impressed with it but, I'll try a few more but it's hard to even get reloading components as well as loaded ammo and I'm afraid this is going to be the worst shortage ever!

    Mauser m18 6.5 Creedmoor handload accuracy?

    Has anyone gotten one of these rifles to group really well and consistent using handloads? From what I've read, the best groups have been gotten only with match grade ammo and are very pickey. The reviews I've found state they don't produce the accuracy they have claimed. Thanks for any info! :)

    Gunsmithing Lug Lapping?

    Would something like Gun Scrubber in a spray can be good to use to flush the compound/grit out of the action and barrel? or would I be just as well and cheaper, to use Carb Cleaner in spray cans as long as there is no plastics/synthetics involved? Also, would I be better off using the silicone...

    New Remington 700

    There should, be a second pull weight adjustment screw if you remove the barreled action from the stock. They just added the external screw on the trigger but, don't mention the internal screw which was the way the first x-mark triggers were to be adjusted. Using both screws, I managed to get...
