    Gunsmithing Cerakote: Blasting vs. Sanding

    Sanding marks aside, you have a high chance of the cerakote failing to adhere properly. I know this from experience with cerakote C-series high temp coatings.

    Gunsmithing Mauser K98 question

    For the Mauser smiths out there..... Does the barrel tighten on the end of the barrel on the internal shoulder of the action or does the barrel tenon shoulder tighten on the outside end face of the action?? I've had one smith say internal and another say external.

    Gunsmithing DuraCoat® Aerosol over Savage Mark II FV-SR Questions

    If you want it to last, prep it properly. If you're not worried about it coming off easily just paint it. Painting anything is 90% prep 10% painting.

    Gunsmithing Stripped Ruger 10/22 Receiver - Question about tapping.

    What he said ^^^, especially with small taps like 8-40. Remember it's a lot quicker to drill a hole than it is to remove a broken tap.

    Gunsmithing Stock painting question

    So you use the webbing agent mixed with Cerakote? How does it affect the durability of the Cerakote? I've only ever done the webbing trick the old school way using unreduced acrylic lacquer with low pressure.

    Gunsmithing Long Rifles Inc. OR Gunwerks

    Talk to Chad before buying a reamer, saw something on here about a new flush system he uses and he was gonna sell all his reamers and replace them with a different type that works better with his new system. Something like that.

    Gunsmithing Freebore on new rifle

    Measure the difference between the fire formed neck and the modified case neck, you might just have to neck size it and get a file or dremel and modify the inside of the neck so the projectile can slide

    Is it possible that the OAL modified case is not chambering fully giving you a false reading?

    Gunsmithing Should I compromise a rifle to shave weight?

    Calm down. I have no interest politics or discussing it, i just ask what the reason was for a weight limit. In New Zealand where i come from there is no such thing as a weight limit for a hunting rifle, so i was just curious what the reasoning behind it was.

    Gunsmithing Should I compromise a rifle to shave weight?

    Why is there a weight limit? I could understand caliber restriction but who cares how heavy your rifle is.

    Gunsmithing Should I compromise a rifle to shave weight?

    You asked for ANY thoughts or suggestions, my thought is you don't need a .338 Lapua for hunting. What kind of animal are you hunting that you need a .338 especially if you can shoot them with a bow? You say you don't want to compromise the value by cutting on a finished rifle, 3lb is a lot to...

    Gunsmithing Should I compromise a rifle to shave weight?

    I realize that, what i meant was if you can get close enough to use a bow does it really need to be a .338? I'm sure they'd appreciate carrying something a lot lighter around, not to mention the money you'd saving on ammo.
