    Dura coat a composite stock

    I'm surprised they have never heard of air cure cerakote? Which would work excellent on the stock, Duracoat also works very well, Both are very durable finishes although neither of them are scratch and chip proof.

    Gunsmithing barrel threading question vs lathe

    Hello, This lathe can do from 8 threads per inch all the way up to 72 threads per inch, so it will do 16 threads per inch, but this lathe is way to small to do rifle barrels, You will need a 12x40 at least to do any serious rifle barreling jobs. is this the lathe? Grizzly.com

    Gunsmithing Disadvantage of a short throat 338lm?

    Re: Disadvantage of a short throat 338lm? Since its a savage, I would buy a new bolt head and be done with it, the savage bolt heads are semi floating and center themselves when the bolt is closed, so there is no need to true it up, just my .02

    Gunsmithing Consequences of putting .311 down .308 bbl?

    Re: Consequences of putting .311 down .308 bbl? Most likely absolutely nothing. The Ruger mini 30 has been launching bullets of .310 and .311 diameter from hot surplus steel cased ammo for about the last 20 years out of a .308 diameter barrel with no problems.

    Re: Anyone ever use a Arasaka type 38 action? I have built 2 rifles on jap actions, they are similar to the mauser but they cock on closing and the safetys are hard to manipulate. It is also hard these days to find good triggers. It will make a fine rifle though and they are very strong...
