    Need help with medium length action build. 284/swede/260

    If you already have a long action, definitely the 6.5x55. I have had a Criterion barrel for a Savage, they call it a 6.5x55 Swedish Match chamber. I replaced it with a full build from LRI using a Winchester pre-war 70 and a Proof carbon barrel. They both shoot the same load. Lapua brass, Hornady...

    51st State

    We already had the Philippines as a territory. We gave them independence after WW2. We should have kept them and dropped PR.

    The fun of paying in CASH

    I was referring to pre 1965 coins that contained their actual weight in silver. Funny how a $.10 of silver then is now $3.00 in paper money.

    The fun of paying in CASH

    It is too bad we don’t have some kind of metallic currency. Something made of precious metals that is actually worth its own weight. I remember reading that ancient civilizations did that.

    so if a guy wanted some custom screws made.....

    I wonder if the screws from a Magnum Research BFR will work? The BFR is close in design to the Blackhawk.

    Suppressors Next 30 Cal Suppressor?

    ECCO just recored and mount converted a Surefire 762 mini for me. It is noticeably more quiet and physically lighter. It was my first suppressor and never got used much because it was so loud. I highly recommend their work.

    Direct thread keeps coming loose

    Area 419 Hellfire 5/8-24 direct thread adapter. Screw it into your direct thread can with a wrench and blue loctite then use it on a hellfire muzzle adapter. I used it on a couple of old direct thread cans and now I can use them on any barrel with a hellfire adapter.

    New Sig CROSS

    I agree. I put an Area 419 arca rail on it and I shot it even better with my bipod. I think it is just too narrow a fore end to sit flat on a bag.

    Winchester Model 54

    It was probably a 30-06 or .270. That was the rifle that introduced the .270 Winchester.

    Winchester Model 54

    If it is a standard 30-06 based receiver, I would rebarrel it to whatever you like. You can always put the old barrel back on unless you blueprint the action. The Model 70 uses the same barrel and I have seen a few 54s with 70 barrels. I did that to my most recent 54. I got lucky and it clocked...
