Hi all, I've tried my Google fu, but I cant seem to find any pics of the T3 Summit bolt by itself, the inside of the receiver without the bolt, etc. Could someone please post some pictures of the different sides of the bolt, the straight pull mechanism, and the inside of the receiver at...

Sorry to post yet another topic asking for help, but... I did an OCW test today. Varget, 168SMK, and Winchester brass and primers. I was shooting my Savage .308 with sporter ss bbl. I loaded 41gr to 44 grains in .5gr increments (7 sets). I shot these round robin and analyzed it on OnTarget...

Was doing some work outside today and this question popped into my head... What would happen if 7.62x39 was fired in a .308 chamber? *I dont plan on doing it, just curious. Thanks in advance!

I was at the range yesterday doing load testing with .308, using the OCW method. Load: H380 45.5-46.6gr in .3gr increments (5 rounds of each 8 different charges) Hornady 150sp (I got a crapton with my press and I'm trying to make use of them) Distance: 100yds My problem was that I zeroed the...

Hey all, I acquired a Remington Model 37 Rangemaster. You know, the one with 26(?) inch HEAVY!! barrel. Old, but in good shape. It came with iron sights, but I'm interested in mounting a scope on it. I'm wondering what ideas you all have on what mount(s) would work. Thanks! Heres a couple pics...

I need help deciding between these two... 1)Falcon Menace 4-14x44 1/10Mil 2)Millet 6-24x56 1/10Mil I can get either of these for the same price... So price is not an option. Which do you think would have: Better glass? Better Adjustment tracking? If the Falcon has better glass, I'm...

Hi all. Did a search on this but didn't find much. What is the differences between the Stevens Actions and Savage Actions? Internals...? Any difference in barrel change or accuracy? What about a difference in aftermarket parts for Stevens vs Savage? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for looking. I welcome any advice. These were 55gr Hornady FMJs loaded with IMR 4064 to OAL of 2.280 I'm thinking there's a node around either 23 or around 23.6? What do you suggest I do for the next set of testing? *** Note: these were all fired round robin, and several of the...

Ok, so I'm wondering what the difference in size is of the tikka .223 action when compared to the .308 action. Why I want to know is if I can shoot .308 out of my .223 action if I do a barrel and bolt change. Also, if the answer above is no, then my next questions is: would I be able to...

Hey all, I've got a few questions about reloading. I'm trying to develop OCW loads for my tikka in .223. It's a 16 inch barrel (I cut it down) 1 in 8 twist and I'm trying to get pet loads for Nosler 69gr HPBT with AA2520 and Hornady 55 V-Max with H335. Here's where I need help... I did the...

So, it seems like the time of year to do projects, and I'm interested in shortening the factory barrel on my 10-22 and tikka .223. Have you guys done your own barrel shortening jobs? What tools/ techniques? I have a belt sander, drills, drill press, hand turn pipe cutter, scroll saw, vices...

I've been watching this section and have been considering purchasing a decent bolt action 22 lr to use for training to save money. I'm looking for something under $800. Requirements: -Detach box mag with up to 10 rounds capacity -Able to be accesorized and accurized easily (decent amount of...

I have a .22 and I'm wondering what part would be most worth the money to upgrade. I'm curious to what you guys chose to upgrade first, or what upgrade made the greatest difference for you. Please list what you voted for and what manufacturer/part you used. Thank you.

Hi all, I have a friend who has a Benelli R1 in .300 Win Mag and he has never gotten the rifle to shoot under 1.5 inches @100 yds with factory ammo. Do you have any recipes that you found worked well? Or maybe you can suggest a factory ammo that worked almost as well as handloads?

Has anyone tried machining the tikka action so that there are feed ramps which help single feed easier and load from the mag with extra long bullets easier?

Is there anywhere else besides directly from Badger Ordnance one can buy a Badger action? Is this the same way for companies like Surgeon, BAT, Stiller, ect? Anyone on here selling just the action? Thanks in advance, Shiloh

I'm curious what the age range is on here. I am especially interested how young some of the members are since I am still in high school. I am 16 to be exact, and I have been shooting since around 8 years old starting with airguns. I bought my first gun two years ago, a .223 which represented the...

I'm trying to decide between a Hornady Lock N Load Auto Index press or a RCBS Pro 2000 Auto progressive press. I currently have a Rock Chucker single stage and a RCBS Competition powder measure along with the dies I would need to reload. I would be able to use the RCBS dies with the Hornady...

I have a Tikka T3 Lite in .223 that only has about 2000 rounds thru it. It currently sits in a XLR chassis instead of the cheap factory one. I love the rifle, and it shoots great, but I have always had problems ejecting shells. I read on here some time ago something similar, but I can't refind...
