    best action wrench for a 50BMG build

    I'm building a 50 bolt gun and since none of my smaller action wrenches are suitable. I was wondering if anyone has any previous experience to share, or advice to offer on the design for a good action wrench for the build?

    PTG Rem 700 bolt extractor choices

    I'm planning to order a PTG bolt for my Rem 700 LA. I see that they offer several extractor choices. The only one I've had any experience with is the factory extractor. Could anyone give me any advice on benefits/preferences between the Sako, the M16 and the mini 16? My bolt face is .308.

    Chambering short action cartridges in long actions.

    The different 6mm/6.5mm cartridges that I've been considering are all similar in length to .308 in the 2.8"-3" coal range. So maybe I'm being overly concerned with the front back play in the mags, and the longer jump from mag to chamber. The AICS 300WM is about .700" longer than a .308 mag...

    Chambering short action cartridges in long actions.

    Thanks for the info KabarNC. That's one of my concerns with running the shorter cartridges in the long action, the front/back play of the rnds in the AICS 300WM magazine. If the Accuratemag magazine solves that issue I'll feel more confidant moving forward with the project.

    Chambering short action cartridges in long actions.

    Actually, barrel life is my greatest concern with the 6.5 X 284. I've also read that the 6mm Remington might be a suitable choice. From what I've read that's what the 6mm Crusader is based on. Another one I'm looking at is 6mm Competition Match. I'm just hoping to find someone that has first...

    Chambering short action cartridges in long actions.

    30 06 cartridges seem to feed well from the AICS 300WM magazines. So I'm wondering what 6/6.5mm cartridges with long neck and 30 shoulder are of similar length? Not sure if they're all going to be long actions. Anyone try the 6mm crusader?

    Chambering short action cartridges in long actions.

    Maybe great minds think alike. I came upon a good deal on a stock that happened to be a long action. I had already been thinking about a 6.5 X 284 build for a while and thought this stock would be a good candidate, But then I had second thoughts on it based on the reported barrel life. I've...

    Chambering short action cartridges in long actions.

    I'm collecting components for a build. I originally had in mind something like 6 X 284 or 6.5 X 284. I'd read that in order to get the best performance from that cartridge, you need to load them long, and that in order to have the longer COAL rds feed from a detachable mag you need to go long...

    Gunsmithing Badger action dimensions

    Could anyone tell me if the Badger 2013 action and the Bighorn TL3 action share the same barrel thread? I'm wondering if I can install a barrel threaded and chambered for the Badger action, on to my Bighorn action, or would it have to be remachined?

    M5 BM - Badger vs. PTG

    I installed the PTG on an FN action in an HS precision stock with the mini chassis, that I did the inletting for myself. I went with the PTG because there were only two options I could find for DBM and the other company wanted me to send my action to be milled out (which I didn't want to do)...
