you might also think about a trigger job. I have the ruger sr1911 and now shooting any other pistol is just no good.

Going to try some Sierra .311 that's what I measured the bore at. Have to find them first though. And shoot out enough ppu to get brass lol

Yes, waiting to buy a big lathe until I build my shop. I got that thing for nothing and you can do this kind of work on it just have to go slow. Actually a very precise lathe.

This is true, at least with this I can use it for cheap plinking.

I have seen a lot of people doing that, but I wanted to avoid changing the barrel if possible. For all that I would have went with a 700 build.

That's cool. I looked them up. Says you need a gunsmith to fit the extractor. I wounded if I would be able to do it

Thanks, Hopefully I can get sub moa with it, but even in a worst case. It is plenty accurate for hunting.

I really like the stock, but the one I got was inleted off to the left. It took all of extra work to correct this. Seems to be an uncommon problem, so no big deal. Fixed now

I have one that I put away as a collector. It is a "rare " Mosin in perfect condition. But other then that, is say these builds are acceptable. Thanks for checking it out

It was fun to shoot. Fun to build to. Have a buddy who wants me to help him build one. Cool project to mess with.

Well, I have been thinking about doing a build for a long time, but never knew where to start. Wanted to build a 700, but did not feel like dropping 2-3k. So I decided to go with a mosin to start. From start to finish I did the entire thing by myself. 24' barrel, 11 degree target crown, boyds...

Im in the middle of sporterizing one. should finish by the end of next week. Will post a thread with pics. I haven't shot it yet so Im not sure what ammo it likes. I will have to break out the calipers and measure the muzzle to see what it comes out to. I purchased some ppu match ammo so I will...

Want to try and load for 7.62x54. Anyone having good results? looking for some specifics. What bullet, diameter, weight, powder, primer etc.

I was going to buy the 700 from dicks sporting goods and true and rebarrel it, but I just don't feel like spending the money right now. in total to build the 700 I was going to it would have cost about 1200 or more not including glass. I love the gun to and plan to buy more. but with a rock...

Yea, waiting an extra couple weeks and spending a little more is probably the best beat. I have a Nikon on my 700 and love it. And it is going on a Mosin. After doing some research Iv come across some guys making these guns very nice shooting guns. I'm going to change the stock, trigger ...

Ok guys, I'm looking for a temporary scope. Have about $150.00. Hoping to get something with the tactical style turret. so I can dial in for a distance and know where the scope is from zero. hoping to get a 3-12 or 4-16 power. somewhere in that rang. I know the price rang sucks, but was...

In my experience IMR 4064 is very similar. It has been much easier to get ahold of as well.

Ok, I recently started myself. But had a similar budget. I ordered the cabelas case tumbler kit (am considering also getting a stainless steel set up to), good dies(don't cheap out on the dies, you get what you pay for), reloading trays if you don't find them or make them, Case lube, trimmer of...

Awesome. So right in that same rang. I shot another test with the col about .002 off the lands. It's shot ok, but the weather changed and and it got difficult to get a real idea of group size. Happy to see that muzzle velocity, I'm guessing I'm pretty similar.
