    Any ideas on attaching a CRUSH IT timer to a bino harness?

    I made a bracket out of a light piece of red angle iron and fix mine to my sunrise tactical arm band..... I can see time remaining every time I glance down at my dope.

    Gunsmithing The No-Go Gauge Went

    You're absolutely right...... not sure what I was thinking..... the simple fact that the Op posted this question instead of doing a search and reading the dozens of similar threads leads me to believe they don't have the experience to be making the determination how to proceed. Emailing proof...

    Gunsmithing The No-Go Gauge Went

    Technically you don't have a problem. Sounds like your measurements have confirmed it's safe to me. Remember, go : no-go gauges are for chambering to +/- .004"ish. If the action will close on a field gauge +.006" then you have a problem...

    Steel Target Range Setup

    I've had a similar setup for over 10 years and gravitated through all the hanging target options and various holding methodologies. What I've learned is that eventually everything down range will catch a bullet and every strap will eventually weather and break. I'm basically down to using only...

    Seating depth, what’s acceptable variation?

    For those who fuss with minor OAL and think seating depth really matters .... What's your measured throat erosion rate? Most of mine average between .003"-.005" per 100 rds. Suppose you shoot a 200 round match, what happens to your load? I used to chase the lands as the throat eroded...

    JAE Experts

    There were a few changes over the years..... post a picture, it will help. Not a lot of material differences, mainly shaving off a few ounces, addition of the nose art, Arca rails, bag rider etc, rails..... functionally they remained the same.

    Seating depth, what’s acceptable variation?

    You're there, well within tolerance IMO...,. I prime, mandrel and seat bullets for my P.R. ammo on a Dillon 1050 and can have up to +\-.005" variation. I can't see any practical difference on performance and the reduction in time is significant!

    New RF bino from Vectronix!!! Vector X

    Swarovorski will warranty their range finding binoculars for ever, Sig and Leica will as well...... as for Vectronix, I've got a PLRF 15 I'll send you to see if you can get them to repair it. Simple drop from my tripod broke the crystal loose and even though they service military units and...

    New RF bino from Vectronix!!! Vector X

    I wonder what their warranty policy will be like? I swore off Vectronix when i needed some work on an PLRF15. Hell of a range finder but if you actually use them in the field and happen drop them you'll wind up with a $3500 brick! Ask me how I know.......

    Precision Rifle Gear Jewell Trigger Repair

    I recently tried to contact Jewell triggers myself and have been unable to get ahold of them ..... the last one I had rebuilt must have been right towards the end! I've also heard they are out of business and I can not find one anywhere for a new build so I went with another trigger...

    What causes this? (Neck "Lip")

    As your wet tumbling, this is the most likely cause, even without the pins the mouths will peen and cause the chambering issue issue your experiencing. Lots of folks confuse it with a sizing issue but it's not. The simple solution is to insert a trim/debur step right before loading and you'll...
