    Gunsmithing WARNING DON'T TRUST CARBON SIX

    Yes, they use McGowen blanks and they're the same owner AFAIK. Was it a carbon wrapped DTA blank? I've over promised and under-delivered on that spec once before. Thankfully we have it sorted now and they're shit hot.

    Barrel Torque Ludicrocity

    Largely I agree with your statement's intent here. Shocking right? We all know you have some beef with me, but I will remind you that this particular area of expertise happens to be within my realm of study as both an engineer and a gun plumber. I also stated a summary early on in this...

    9mm Bolt Action Rifle - Looking for people with experience with the manufacturer (Curtis Tactical)

    That thing looks like a lot of fun! I have a Henry in 357 and it's lots of fun with the 38 target ammo and my 9mm suppressor.

    Barrel Torque Ludicrocity

    I covered that probably on the first, maybe 2nd page. Several of the references in the industry come from data that I gathered and provided to several action makers when I was asked my opinion on the topic. :ROFLMAO:

    Howa mini prefits

    I do them as a shouldered install, they shoot very well. I made some regular Howa 1500 barrel nuts back in 2018, 20 I think. We still have all 20. This is why I never bothered making barrel nuts for the mini actions. As far as making a shouldered prefit for it, the dimensions on the action...

    What to do with Bergara B14

    Cool deal! The Proof Sendero contour is closest to the Marksman contour in steel.

    What to do with Bergara B14

    I can handle the job and I'm happy to make you what you'd like. Since you're looking for opinions on the internet I'll throw my loose change into the conversation and then make whatever you decide. The 6mm TCU is probably the only one that has a performance value in my book. The 6.5 and 7...

    Barrel Torque Ludicrocity

    The print we have says 0.825 +/-1, where is the 822 number published? The 825 number has been standard since 2018 timeframe with the Nucleus launch and several shops, myself included, argued with Ted to make the 825 number standard and keep it for the Coups. We've never run into an issue with...

    Barrel Torque Ludicrocity

    The preload on the joint must exceed the applied load during the load cycle in order to maintain joint stability. The way to do this is to use the calculated factor T=k*F*d where T is torque k is a fitting factor that changes for the type of thread, quality, lubrication and elasticity of the...

    Barrel Torque Ludicrocity

    "The Book" being Robert Vaughn's tome on his experiments in rifle repeatability experiments? As far as thread fit... this is where pre-load comes into the question. In a threaded joint once the preload applied exceeds the load that the joint will cycle through it becomes moot for the low cycle...

    Accuracy international out of pocket calibers

    Interesting, good to know. I knew Wade was doing some stuff after starting the shop. The barrel was an easy job, getting the mags to run was more difficult. Thanks for the info! Very cool that you have those old magazines!
