bolt

I have a Remington 5-R in .308. It has about 120 rounds through it. Using new Federal GMM ammo. When I go to pull the bolt back to eject a spent case, the bolt sticks a bit. You need to yank on it to get it out of battery. I don't know, but it feels like the resistance is about what I...

Hey guys, I know I'm new here... a buddy of mine suggested I throw out this problem here: I'll try to be as verbose as possible. I'm new to most of this and trying to learn quickly. Here is my problem: I just bought a brand new Bushmaster 16" upper. The lower is a Sabre Defense receiver with...

Just finished my Remmy 700 build the other day and Took it out shooting. After Fireing a round the bolt will stick at the very top when opening. At first I thought it could be the Sako extractor but i did some work on that and it didnt seem to help. Ive used several diffrent loads with it ( By...

What is the minumum range you would engage someone with an AR15 if all you had was a .308 bolt action? Wesley

First off, Happy Fathers Day! OK, here's the situation, I was playing around with a new stock and had the barreled action in and out of it a few times. Was checking for bolt movement, safety movement, fit, you know, playing around. So, I was cycling the bolt and firing and playing with the...

Picked up an ar from one of the members today at my FFL. Before I walked with the gun I pulled the charging handle back to check the chamber and I was not able to lock the bolt back. I stuck a mag in and still could not get the bolt to lock back. Upon closer inspection I could not pull the bolt...

I want a tactical bolt gun that is capable of a little distance. I have a 308 F class gun that I shoot regularly (semi-auto). Currently the only bolt gun I have is a 50BMG. I just took a Browning A-Bolt stainless barreled 300WSM on trade for a GSG-5 I had. It's in really good condition. Do any...

Does anyone know if there is anyone doing spiraled bolts for the savage 10fp?

What bolt action do you like best as far as manipulating the bolt handle? I am preparing to get a new rifle. It will be .308, bolt, and have a magazine. I'd like something smoother and easier than the Remington and Ruger rifles I have now. I'm open to anything, factory or custom actions...

Could someone tell me how to remove the dovetailed section of the Tikka T3's bolt handle, I plan on making a new one and threading it to accept some different bolt handles that I am going to make up. I am supposed to pick the gun up tonight, but in looking at them previously, it seems the...

Just curious. Can an AR10 outshoot a bolt action? if not, what would it take to do it.

I purchased a new LMT BCG from a friend, how can i tell if it is an LMT vs another manufacturer?

Good evening all, thanks for taking the time to read this and give me your thoughts. I have the chance to buy a M1A or to possibly get my hands on a Remington 700 ADL that I wanted to break down to just the receiver blue print it and build from there. i already have a savage 10FP that has work...

I was speaking with Krieger barrels and they said that if the bolt is chromed, there MAY be insufficient headspace with the barrel. The reasoning being that if the bolt is made to milspec, and then chromed, the chrome will eat some headspace. I have a Young Mfg National Match Chrome Bolt...

Anybody had the chance to put one of rugers new AR's through its paces??? looks like a pretty good platform... Also, what's the advantages of a chrome bolt assembly as opposed to a black matte assembly? I need to buy a new assembly for my RRA, where should I look first? lastly, I had my fair...

Can I get a GAP bolt knob put on a remmy 700 bolt? Does GAP provide this service?

Hi all. My dear wife decided that now she really has the shooting bug, and we've bought her her first bolt rifle a 700 SPS in .223. The gun is remarkably accurate for not being free floated or bedded, and she shoots it pretty well (this being the second time she used a bolt gun with a scope she...

Does anyone know where a rimfire bolt can be bought or anyone who can build a rimfire bolt for a Remington 700 short action? I would like to build a 22 trainer like I have seen here. Thanks for any help or advice.

I sent it off to Hooper Ordnance for the 700 bolt mod, which included the Badger knob and three machine screws through the handle to the bolt body. Got it back and it looks great! It's a new 700P, haven't shot it yet, will be tomorrow though. So far I've added the mod to the bolt, Seekins...

Question for anyone that this has ever happened to, but I was dry firing just a little bit ago, click, cannot for the life of me cycle the bolt again. This is a model 70 SA. The bolt lifts parallel with the floor and then she ain't budgeing. I don't know if the firing pin broke, or the saftey...
