    Gunsmithing M16 Extractor Length?

    The women I spoke with said send it in. I just went through an out of spec bolt from those guys a couple months ago. Never spoke with Dave once, no explanation or anything. Finally got a new bolt after waiting 6 weeks. Now more problems. I've been building this rifle all winter and it's...

    Gunsmithing M16 Extractor Length?

    Thanks for the responses guys. I tried to fit a piece of brass and the go gauge in there but the extractor won't fit over the case rim. I also barreled up the receiver to see if it would extract a chambered piece of brass and it won't. I did some measuring and the hole that the extractor pin...

    Gunsmithing M16 Extractor Length?

    I have a ptg m16 extractor that I just installed in a ptg one piece bolt. It's a short action mag bolt face bolt and mag bolt face extractor. The fit is super tight so it doesn't move freely at this point, but I can work that out I think. The problem is it looks like it isn't long enough -...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    That would be awesome. I appreciate it. BTW, the weather has been incredible. Currently 65 and blue skies. Looks like some clouds over the weekend and then back to beautiful by next week. And that's your weather report from southeast utah.

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    Based on my understanding of what I have read and questions I have asked, one of the purposes of Gap 4S is to run it in a short action. You can use a long action, as have a number of people who have posted their results in this thread (some recently). It's a long cartridge for the short action...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    I've read this whole thread and reread many of the posts. I'm acquiring parts for a 4 S build. I'd like to go DBM but I'm thinking that it would be easier to track down a stock, get the build going, and do load development prior to mid september mule deer by going factory BDL. I am able to...

    So the Manners SL on the X Hunter is lighter than the standard SL? Anybody know how the SL on the X hunter compares to the EH models weight wise?

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    I'm trying to better understand which powders to look for as H1000 appears to be nonexistant at this time. My question is, based off the above charts, what makes the Ramshot Magnum look good out of the listed powders? Compared to the Ramshot Mag, for example, the 7828SCC is single base, very...

    Gunsmithing 6.5 Creedmoor in a Long Action?

    Yeah, 6.5-06 or the 6.5-284 that I was going to do would be cool. The only reason I was thinking about using the la is because it's available. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gunsmithing 6.5 Creedmoor in a Long Action?

    I have a Rem 700 long action that I originally picked up for a 6.5-284 build that I didn't end up doing. Now I'm thinking id like to do a 6.5 Creedmoor. Any reason I shouldn't do this on the LA I already have? It would be a target rifle so I'm not worried about any extra weight. AICS...
