    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    I have a Gen 1 in 6.5 Creedmoor, and have never had any issues with it (except when I switched to small primer brass and had to use CCI450s for the harder cup to control primer flow around the firing pin...my issue for not using large primers and not necessarily the guns shortcoming). Each...

    Homemade Induction Annealer

    What always strikes me when I look at your setup, is that the proximity of the coil to the large aluminum tool head might potentially cause issues with heat build up in the tool head itself (as well as excessively long heating times with the amount of energy being dumped into the tool head...

    Here is an 'artists rendition' of how I set mine up:

    I agree with this 100% (although I used aluminum blocks as stand offs and mounted them on the underside of my ZVS board...just worked better with the way I had components arranged)

    My advice...slow it down. Your ZVS board will last longer. If you need to keep the pace up, a large fan (100mm or 140mm) blowing across the board may help. Personally, I have an automatic case feeder, and I keep the delay between cases long enough to keep the board temp at 105-120F and just...

    Like Stugots said, 1200W is the capability of the power supply, the ZVS board can only take what it can take. In the case of your 800W supply, the ZVS board was probably trying to take more than the PS could continuously output. With regards to the amperage, it might be just changing...

    I would think you would be better served with more amperage/wattage like: https://www.amazon.com/BOSYTRO-Switching-Transformer-Security-Industrial/dp/B0C591QLNR/?th=1

    Homemade Induction Annealer

    FALex, I have been using the method I documented on another forum for a couple of years now, and it seems to work well. See: https://forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/induction-brass-annealer-redux.3908353/page-139#post-38261542 I use the flame sensor as a primary trigger to drop an annealed...

    the comb is the cheek rest, and the RPR like the AR needs a decent amount of rise in the scope mount because its basically level from the rail back to the cheek rest (not slanted down like a standard rifle stock).

    No problem. Looks like you can get a 1/4-28 tap on Amazon for less than $4...at least in the US...

    My guess is they are either 1/4-20 or 1/4-28 (I haven't dissassembled my RPR in a few years). If you have a set of calipers, measure the diameter of the bolt...it should be at or just under 0.2500" (6.35mm). If you don't have calipers, measure with a ruler...the difference from 1/4" and the...

    I'm not sure what the question was in the previous 3 posts, but on the one above that... The 1/8" rod he refers to is the one coming out of the wood block on the right side of the first attached pic in his post. The rod goes through that drop hole to hold the case in place, then it is pulled...

    If you can return the 600W to AliExpress, and get the larger supply, that would indeed be best.
