A little pet project: Miniature billet LS3 Heads...

Just cause I wanted to see if I could, lol.

I need a smaller tool for the porting portion. 3/16 was all I had with sufficient reach to make it down the runner. It left a bit of a cusp at the bowl/runner transition.

The shortages have affected my tool vendor a bit. I've had some .120 dia lollypop endmills on order now for over a month.

Pointless, but way cool to screw with and learn the ins n outs of some new toolpaths Ive not been able to mess with.

Neck tension and ES

I've recently made the switch to temp stable extruded powders. In the past I have only ran 5 rounds or so over the chrono and get pretty decent numbers...single digit SDs and teens for the ES. I started annealing after I shot through my first lot of brass and it made a very noticeable difference in seating pressure (not measured, just by feel). I decided to run 20 across the Magnetospeed both with and without my can to get better info on both velocities.

I wet tumble with pins (about 30 min) and I'm pretty sure it dings up my necks enough to where I have to do a light chamfer/deburr. If I don't chamfer good enough and it leaves a little lip, would that be adding enough bite to alter my neck tension? I was getting 20 ish SD and 60+ ES over 20 rounds. When seating the bullets, about 5 or so had a touch of resistance at first and then dropped in like normal.

I full length size all the way to SAAMI since I have reliability issues when I only bump 7K. Chamber would get dirty after about 100 rounds and bolt wouldn't fully lock up. I set neck tension with a .241 mandrel for a 6ARC gasser. My powder is dropped from an RCBS Lite and I actually have double checked them on a Dillon beam since I just got it and want to vet it for trust.

Getting overheated

I shot a midrange (300) F Class match yesterday. 30 rds in 30 minutes.
They use 2 targets of 15 each.
1st target was sub moa, score 150, 7x.
I did notice the last couple shots hitting at 6 o'clock in the 10 ring.
2nd target, shots 16 - 30, were were dropping lower & lower as the barrel got hotter & hotter. By shot #30 I was holding in the middle of the 9 ring and dropping into the 10 ring. I lost a total of 5 points from low shots dropping into the 9 ring. So I ended with a 295/300, 11x. It was good enough to win the match, but I'm confident a perfect score is possible had I figured it out sooner.

I did use all my 30 minutes, so I don't know how I could have slowed down any.

So is there something I need to learn, or is just knowing what my rifle does the best I can do?

Winchester 70 elk build.

Don’t see a lot of Winchester 70 projects so I thought I’d upload some photos of mine.
Pre 64 action from a pawn shop beater featherweight.
E.R Shaw heavy sporter barrel.
Richards exhibition stock.
Anyone that’s wondering the pre 64 action is an absolute joy to work with. Smooth and dead nuts reliable.

Remington Arms now selling direct?

I was curious as to what Remington might/might not be doing as regards rifle production- new website shows in-stock inventory, and ability to purchase direct rather than just through dealers. I thought all inventory was sold off as part of the bankruptcy sale, but some of the pricing sure seems too low to be anything but NOS?

A 783- with scope- in .300 WM for $300?? (!)
A couple of M700's as well for about six bills.

Noob reloader questions

So I have a lee precision 4 turret press kit and some dies I picked up for 150 on black fridayday on ebay thats heading my way I've done a fair share of research on the dies and tools I'm starting off cheap for now because I'm broke(spent all my money on a glass) my question comes down to components, what's the best websites to keep tabs on, because I noticed a couple of websites straight up seemed like a scam, and everything is out of stock.

Also what's a good resource for info on components I bought some ram hunter powder because it was all that was available and people online said it was usable for 6.5 cm just needs a grain or two extra of powder than most loads and I'm really nervous on mixing cheap powder with cheap cci primers(should I just bite the bullet and get the federal premium large rifle primers if anyone has any experience on this subject?)

Someone here might save me from wasting a lot of money of bullshit shipping charges and price gouging if they could tell me if anyone has large rifle primers in stock because I noticed most sites only charges 20 to 30 bucks for shipping everyone is 60+ on gb. I looked around and the couple sites I saw came up as scams on other forums. Is powdervalley safe? Lol I didn't get an email or anything for my purchase of 2lbs of powder haha 🤣

I apologize for this being something that gets posted here once a week some of my questions are very specific

Armed Agents in Round Rock, Tx. School District Arrest Concerned Parents in Their Own Homes

This is getting close to home, as in the next county over.

Williamson Co. is the Ellis Island of Texas where all the California refugees come to. The corridor north of Austin is exploding with newcomers and the stupid cocksuckers have to bring the same political viewpoints that ruined the state they're fleeing from.

Optics Swarovski SLC 15x56 binos priced to move

SLC 15x56 binos in good shape. Comes equipped with a sportsman tripod adapter stud.

These need to be sent back to swaro to have the focus recalibrated. When using the focus adjustment the two sides aren't in sync.

Pricing these to move because the buyer will need to send them in. I haven't contacted Swaro yet. If they go back, they will be listed for a bit more.

Will post pics later. Glass and body is great shape.

$1500 shipped

Would consider partial trade for a PLRF25c with cash on my end.

Thanks

Airline covid police

So what gives?


I have been all over, one state you could eat inside without a mask IF you had the government shot, every place just posted the flyer and proceeded to not give a fuck.

Airlines are super covid nazis, I mean even if you have a mask it has to be the correct one, even though a neck gater works better than the hand out masks where you can feel your breath pass out the sides

But muh federal lawz, we’ll lots of fed laws get ignored and no one gives a fuck

Lest I even get into the unsecured kids one severe turbulence away from snapping their chicken necks, or the yuuuge lady who clearly doesn’t fit in her seat.

So what being a covid cop part of getting that sweet bailout money or something?
