Having a 300 NM built. Sourcing reloading equipment now. Hornady will make me a modified case if I supply two fired cases; or if someone has one or can make one I'll gladly purchase one. Please send me a PM. THX.
Does anyone know of a place that sells a 300 NM modified case? If no such animal exists, any ideas of a work around or how best to measure max BOL length for the rifle?
The GAP-10 sticky has like one or two so-so pics of the new hand guard, and GAP's website still uses the old hand guard on their stock photos. Would those of you that have a GAP-10 with the new hand guard kindly post in this thread? I'm interested in seeing the hand guard from multiple views and...
So I know that 42.4gr IMR 4895 w/ win brass and 175 SMKs is a pretty good load for many rifles (OCW Overview - Dan Newberry's OCW Load Development System). I have a Rem 700 5R that absolutely loves this combo. Since I chopped my 308 Surgeon Scalpel barrel down from 24" to 16.5", I've had a...
I finally have enough to post the results of my project. About a year ago I purchased a Surgeon scalpel in 308 with a fully loaded A5 sand cammo stock and 24" MTU barrel. It hammers pretty well, but like many on this forum I am infected with a serious case of rifle ADD. My project started...
My wife doesn't really dig shooting off sand bags. She primarily just uses her hand/fist. A friend of mine has an accushot monopod on his Whiskey-3 chassis, and he had one on a manners T5 mini-chassis that he recently sold. The picatinny rail on the mini-chassis was installed by Manners...
With all the great action truing/barrel changeout services being offered, seems hard to resist giving my wife's 308 5R even more of a makeover. Since my rifle is getting worked over by Jared at APA, we've just been shooting our pistols, but today she wanted to take her rifle out. I had a...
Until this scope came out, offerings for a variable and lightweight low to mid power scope with side focus and a tactical reticle were pretty much non-existent. Nightforce discontinued its 2.5-10x24, which pretty much just left the 2.5-10x32. The Nightforce scope is pretty nice, but I refused...
My wife has a Type 2 Alpha Mag in her Manners T5 mini-chassis, and she's getting really sick of it. In particular, she can't shove 10 rounds in the magazine and fit load it in the bottom without fiddling with it for several minutes. Standard AI mags work terrific, but I can't lengthen them to...
1. The stickies are helpful, but I don't really need to see them again and again at the top of subsequent pages. If I go to page 2, my intention is that I don't want to read those posts and want to review older material. But, especially with the bolt action rifles threads, several lines of...
Unfortunately I stripped two screws removing my EGW picatinny scope rail from my Remington receiver. I would like to get a fresh set of 4. Any idea where I can get these? On Brownells I have to buy 12 of one type, which I don't need, and I'm not sure what screws I need to select. Can anyone...
After witnessing the performance of my friend's melonited barrel, I think I'm going to go for it! I have a Surgeon Rifle's built .308 Win that I want to make into a switchbarrel system with 6.5mm Creedmoor. I already have a 6.5mm Bartlein barrel on hand. I'm not really interested in having...
I'm going to take the plunge and get a switch barrel setup on my Surgeon 591/R. I'm in process of buying the tools I'll need for this right now. What thread lube do you recommend wiping on the breech end threads before fitting and torquing it to the action? I came across this, but I'm not...
<span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-weight: bold">Hi there .223 shooters, I'm in the market for a .223 and am giving serious consideration to the Remington SPS tactical with a 1/9 twist barrel. I like what I have read about the 75gr AMAX, and I like their price as well. However...
Will be in middle eastern Germany (Zwickau, near Dresden) for next three weeks? Any SH shooters? Ich reise mit meiner Familia in Mittelostern Deutschland fuer 3 Wochen, wahren Weinachtenurlaub (15DEC-04JAN). Ist jemand von SH in der neh von Zwickau, Chemniz, oder Dresden?
I would like to adjust my Jewell trigger to get a little more sear engagement. The reason is that I think that my firing pin needs to release with a tad more force. From my troubleshooting, I believe that I can rule out a dirty bolt, debris in the firing pin pocket, wrong firing pin length...
I saw that the 9th edition is out. Was wondering if it contains new load data for the following: - 195 BTHP with .300 WSM - 225 BTHP with .300 WSM - 195 BTHP with .308 Win - 208 AMAX/BTHP with .308 Win Thanks.
Equipment: I have a Surgeon 591 action with a Jewell HVR trigger (Rem 700 style w/ safety, no bolt release). The trigger was installed by Surgeon Rifles and I have not adjusted or manipulated any settings except as required to fire the rifle. The rifle is firing BHA (Winchester) brass with...
I know that 270 Winchester isn't really a precision rifle chambering, but I have one that my grandfather built on a Rem 721 action that has killed many beasts. It still shoots great. With deer season just a couple days away, I figure why not start a new thread for a popular deer rifle...
