    Suppressors Factory velocity vs SubSonic velocity...

    In my first post on my .22 supressor it became painfully obivious that there was NO snaptic connection in my thought processes! For one reason or another the importance of Sub-sonic FAILED to imprint in my cerebral gray-matter. I had a new .22 Suppressor. Waves of 'thrill' made my trigger...

    Remington 700 factory drop mag

    Hello all, I apologize if this has been asked already... I tried search to no avail. Are the Remington 700 actions used in rifles with factory drop mag bottom metal the same as 700 ADL and BDL actions? Just wondering if another DBM system like the BO M5 or Seekins DBM can still be used with...

    Gunsmithing Hand lapping factory bore

    Another forum (6mmbr.com) brought up a point about hand lapping factory barrels. The general idea seems to be a plastic bristle brush, some 0000 steel wool and JB Bore paste. Put a plastic or wooden stopper in the muzzle so you don't pass the lapping equipment through the muzzle. Count 50...

    Rifle Scopes Mark4 Factory Zero = more ups than downs?

    Still reading and much as I can about acquiring a new sight. I read about Mark 4's and if I understand this correct; 70moa adjustment is not 35 each way but in fact internal adjustments are 50moa up and 20moa down. Correct? Is this common with other scopes or just a Leupy thing, or am I off track?
