    Gunsmithing Really dumb Brake question

    Re: Really dumb Brake question at what angle did you drill the holes in the brake?...I was taking a guess at 11 degrees, seeing as how it promises the best accuracy on a crown, but would that be sufficient to act as a brake, or would you have to go to say 30 degrees?

    Gunsmithing Really dumb Brake question

    Gunsmithing Custom rifle project

    Re: Custom rifle project i like the concept of a bull pup bolt gun, but the economics of moving my hand so far to manipulate the bolt leaves me hesitant...if you could figure out a way to improve this, you would have a winner for sure....

    Re: Any theories on tight chambering rounds ? This is a long shot, but is there any chance that the offending brass is dirty on the inside? What im thinking is maybe that the expander ball is picking up some srt of residue on it and actually streching the case mouth on the way out....ive...
