action

I bought this right at a year ago with plans to build on it as soon as MPA released their chassis for it. That never happend. XLR released their flagship chassis with the availability to fit the blackbear action so I was going to do that since MPA never came through. Where at nearly a year later...

Hi folks, I'm looking to build a bolt gun similar to the EDM Windrunner/Nemesis Arms Vanquish which can be seen here: https://nemesisarms.com/nemesis_vanquish.html & here: http://www.edmarms.com/products.htm Their system looks great. I love that you can quickly swap barrels and return to zero...

Got a new Dimension in 7mm08, I know its not a long range caliber or sniper rifle by any means, but I need some advice. When I first got it the bolt was incredibly stiff, not the action but just cocking it. Once you got it cocked it was nice and smooth but it just about took two guys and a mule...

do you think you would see any noticible difference in acuracy between the single shot 50bmg action compared to the box feed mcmillan action ? has any one got test data to compare? cheers

I've got a FN/Win 70 barreled action that I'm thinking of having rebarreled and I was wondering what everyone thoughts of action truing are? I'm sure truing the face of the action is a good idea, but I don't see where I'd be gaining anything with single pointing the threads, or lapping the...

I saw a post where someone said they had a 6.5 Swede built on their Rem700 short action. Are major modifactions needed or is it mainly with the feeding from the magazine? Also, would it be possible to modify the magazine such that you could still utilize the 'bdl' configuration? Thanks. Rich

trying to get some pictures of an AICS without the action in it, kinda scared to take mine apart. wondering exactly how the bedding block is made. thanks mike

I have a long action (right now in 6.5x284) Winchester 70 that is needing a new barrel. I like the ballistics of the 6.5x284, but do not like the barrel life. I have bullets for 6.5 and would like to stay in the 6.5 family with my new barrel. What caliber would you recommend for a new barrel...

We hear all the time that this rifle is a c prefix or another. Can somebody explain this whole situation to me and tell me which prefix's are premium and which should be avoided? Thanks in advance.

being from a world of glued in actions (benchrest), I have never been concerned with torquing action screws. I have recently read that even with piller bedded actions it is recommended to torque them to 65 lbs. I have torqued my rings and bases for years and thoroughly understand the value...

I suppose the best way to get a smooth action would be to buy a nice after-market bolt. Are there other ways to get a slick action that I can do on my own?

I tried searching, but my search Foo is very weak, I even slimmed it down to just FN and got nothing even though I know there are some threads. Anyway as far as footprint is there any difference between the two actions? IE I have a PBR and I found a McM that is inlett for the SPR

Weighing the options of an AIAW .308 or a custom. It seems a custom could cost less, have the potential to be more accurate, and ofcourse there is a more taliored stock choice. My question is, on a custom, how does one determine what action is best for him? I want a switch barrel rifle, so...

I replaced the original safety and installed a new low bolt safety on a mauser military 98 action. The new safety is designed to work with a scope. The original safety would rotate and lock the bolt back while cocked in the action. The new safety will not rotate and lock the bolt while it is...

I need a little help with a bed job on a Howa is there any thing I should know about the recoil lug bedding mine has pillers under the recoil lug but. it all so has a .125 space under it on 700 actions you should have .020 or so under it but on a Howa I would think it should be contacting the...

First of all, besides the Sako TRG, who makes a 60 degree short throw bolt/action? AI? Anyone else? Second: Between the action of the Sako and Accuracy International, is one considered better than the other? Why? Third: Between the action of the Sako and Accuracy International, which one is...

Anyone know the proper size hex wrench to use on the action screws in an AICS? It appears that I don't have the proper size wrench. It's always something.
