    DIY Side holder fo two .308

    i think i might have put em forward of the port, so that id be able to take it out and drop it in on just a inward stroke,(like a shot shell loader on a 3g shotgun.) ((Stage Saver)) instead of back -- to pull it out--- then up / forward to load it, then back agin fro the bolt handle but that...

    Have you tried to approach SWFA and have them sell your kits as an "add on" directly through their site? you might loose some revenue / per - as apposed to a direct to consumer model, but it seems that you would make a killing if they carried your product. anyway, thx Tim, my rifle is...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Educate me on the 10mm...

    Thanks for the clarification and further explanation SIR! I forgot about the reloading/brass issue, and didn't know that the 10mm was already in production. and if you ever want to sell that 1076 let me know! although an old sig 220 in 10mm wins my heart too. ( i do love the feel of an all...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Educate me on the 10mm...

    as far as i know, the history of the 10mm began back in the 90's after that fatal FBI shootout in florida. The FBI was looking for a new caliber to replace the 9mm. 45 was already out of the question. so manufactures made up a 10mm. the ballistics are great especially with +P type...

    Trimmers: Next best thing to Giraud?

    https://ads.midwayusa.com/product/41...r-65-creedmoor now they do have holes on the side that will kick out shavings - but a little tape will plug em - i do take the tape off then apply more after maybe 40-50 cases. and then just put it into a baggie and spin it to get the rest out. i have...

    What press/presses are you using?

    forester co-ax, the only thing i don't really like about how it loads primers, (granted it loads them to a good repeatable depth, its just kinda slow, and you have to handle each individual primer)

    Gunsmithing Stock refinishing Quesiton

    I was thinking about glass bedding it because i want to practice and see the outcome before i decide to do it on my 700 or just pay a smith to bed it. Figure its a cheaper way to find out if i suck at it or not. I've read and watched videos but the majority of work comes in the prep.

    Bullet drop table for .308?

    i like the JBM ballistic calc you can get as an APP on your phone, while pretty accurate, it will defiantly help you get on target and find the actual dope for your rifle/round combo. if you didn't have any dope before.

    Gunsmithing Stock refinishing Quesiton

    updated photos after stripping, and light sanding, its getting there. Im convinced to go with Tru Oil at this point, especially because its more forgiving to a newbie like me, just need to keep sanding it. you can see in the second photo there where the barrel was wearing into the wood after...

    Gunsmithing Stock refinishing Quesiton

    I read that people have trouble with BLO especially when they put to much on at one time. and then it not drying. From what I've seen and read, its a drop at a time and then rubbing it in so that your hand get hot. I know its more work. But its kind of a remembrance thing for me, i don't...

    Gunsmithing Stock refinishing Quesiton

    I had already taken the bottom metal and action out before i remembered to take a photo. I'm thinking this thing must have been painted at some time, there seemed to be spots of paint or stained poly or whatever on the underside of the action,

    Gunsmithing Stock refinishing Quesiton

    with the CiritiStrip is there something i should use for an After Wash? i looked at their website and the After Wash is discontinued. is it necessary or will subsequent sanding take care of all that anyway?
