action

Anyone know the maximun OAL that will feed in the Badger M2008 WSM action that is coming out or maybe even out by now. Would like to feed 3" or over with 7WSM using the seekings mag system. Unless there is some system that will allow longer?

I would like to build a tactical style precision trainer rifle. I would like it to be bolt action and obviously .22LR. Money is tight and would like to do the whole gun for no more then $1k (maybe a little over with optics?). This would also need to be a long term project meaning I would buy and...

has anyone here build a rifle up from the fn spr actions that cdnn has been selling i havent seen much about it and i am curios as to why the production rifles look to be second to none and the price is right on with compeditors but they dont have the popularity anyways i would like to see some...

I am looking for someone to build a bedding block for a Badger M2008 action that can be fitted into a manners or mcmillan stock similar to this http://whiddengunworks.net/beddingblock.html my usual CNC guy is laid off and now back in college

Guys, WHat actions will fit correctly into a McMillan A-5 that is inletted for a Remington 700? Additionally what actions can fit with minor gunsmith tweaking of the stock? My point is this, if you ordered a stock for a 700 are you limited to just a 700 action? Thanks, Jack

I would like to give the metal work of my stainless steel Howa a coat of matt black paint. I am nearing the end of having a rifle built on a Sako action, and once the dust settles on that, I intend upgrading the stock and the barrel of the Howa, so I don't want to spend too much on it at the...

Hey guys, Just snagged a badger action and sold my rem700 barreled action. The mcmillan stock is inletted for the SA 700. How involved is the fitting of the badger action to this stock? Any help is appreciated.

Had an attempt made to remove a factory barrel with my Surgeon action wrench. The damn thing bent under load, so while I still think and lug style wrench won't damage the action, it definately won't hold up to the removal of all factory barrels. Unfortunately this was a lesson learned...

What are the action inlets that manners stocks are available in? I can't find it listed anywhere

Hello all. I am getting a wetherby vanguard VGX in 300weatherby mag in trade for some poolcue work and want to build something out of it. I really would like a 338LM or something along that lines. I have only messed with savages,rugers and remington guns so far. I have read these have an...

I just recieved my rifle back from getting put assemble. The extractor is cutting the rim of the brass. When you close the bolt handle it feels hard to close. Then when you open to eject the brass it sticks in the extractor. I look at the brass and it is actually cutting into the rim of the...

Gonna be rounding up parts for another build and was thinking about which action to use , I've fondeled the hell out of the Badger M2008 action and realy liked it , very heavy and rubust but I've never used one on a completed gun so I can't say how whell they cycle rounds. I used a couple...

I won an auction on GunBroker for a set of (3) screws for a Remington Model 700 ADL. I sent payment and received only 2 screws. Only thing is I can't for certain verify that they even go to my gun because I haven't acquired the action yet. With that said an ADL model is just that right? I was...

Guys, Will try to keep this short. Got the Surgeon round action in the group buy, had a 6.5 Krieger I won and a Rock from the group buy. Had the gun built locally by Clarence Hammonds, shot the May Reade match w the Rock + my Shark can using 100 yard data from one range trip, was 4th after day...

I was cleaning my Tikka today and noticed some serious pitting inside the action. This gun has only had around 500 rounds through it. Is the pitting going to effect accuracy? Should I send it to the factory? What should I do? Thanks

I'm tired of this rifle constantly kicking my ass, so I'm thinking about a re-barrel. A 7 pound 375hh sounded like a good idea at first... I suppose it would be a good action to build a 338 lapua on, that's the first thing I thought of at least. Any ideas?

I want to build an M40A1 clone. I've been studying the M40A1 thread but was wondering what I should look for or watch out for while cruising the pawn shops, gun shows etc. looking for a donor rifle. I'm just worried about the action and bolt but am not sure if there are specific things to look...

Hi Guys, As always, a big thank you for helping me further my education in precision shooting. Still being a newbie, I wanted to ask about what exactly is involved with "truing an action"? Does it mean working with the threads of the barrel to archive finer headspace? And, do new rifles...

Hi I have a problem with my Stiller Tac 300 action The problem is with crated primers. The caliber is 300 WinMag Have changed the original firing pin spring with a harder Tubbs speed> lock firing pin spring and measured the dia of the firing pin hole in the bolt and as well measured the dia of...

I was thinking of getting one from the group buy here but someone there offered me a barreled action and was wondering how good their barrels were? Anybody here have a barrelled action from them. Thanks
