    Truth about blueprinting a Rem 700

    Most Custom rifle builders when blueprinting a Rem 700 action, they true up the receiver face, threads, and lug seats. Then the factory bolt gets face and lugs trued. If you indicate the bolt in by the firing pin hole, then the body isn`t running true...

    Other 50's

    The only other truly long range 50 is from Anzio Ironworks. It`s called the 50-20. The 50 Cheytac should push a 750gr AMAX around 2400fps. Then there`s the 50 Spotter. Not much pumpkin though. Also there is a 50-416 Barrett which basically duplicates the 50BMG with less powder. I had a 500...

    Gunsmithing Shilen Ratchet Rifling?

    I was told that Schneider makes the Ratchet rifled barrels for Shilen. Don`t know if thats true but either way I have one that Schneider made for me in 338. Great shooting barrel. I chambered mine in 338 Excaliber and hit steel with it out to 2449yds.

    Surgeon Action???

    I agree, BAT is probably the most used action in the Benchrest world which says something about precision. I just wanted to try a Surgeon. I`m not saying Defiance is bad by no means but I`m going to send my money to BAT.

    Surgeon Action???

    I understand but they could have least called and told me that if I waited until I was 90yrs old that there`s a chance I might get an action.

    375 Lapua Improved 40 Degree.

    Depending on barrel length, I doubt you will ever get 2950 fps. I can see 2800-2850. Since the 350gr Sierra has a lower BC, why not go with the 338 Yogi with 300gr Berger?

Thats fine but they could have called me alot sooner that way I could have cancelled and...

    Gunsmithing Headspacing Question on my .375 Chey Tac

    Actually the 375 Cheytac came out before the 408. Cheytac had Sierra to make around 500lbs of 350gr Matchkings for testing but since it lacked BC, the 375 was dropped. Then the 408 came out. Cheytac and Lost River combined to make the 408 bullet. The rest is history.
