    Unusual velocity changes.

    What powder are you using and was the temperature very different between range sessions? Some powders are more temp sensitive than others.

    Gunsmith for 1911 work?

    Jim Milks was the gunsmith at EGW for many years before setting up his own shop, Innovative Custom Guns. He's done excellent work for me on Browning Hi Powers and 1911s and used to have very reasonable turn around times. I don't know if he's still working or retired now but it might be worth a...

    Defiance or American Rifle Company

    I have and really like the Nucleus, Archimedes (short action) and Mausingfield M7(long action) but ARC has stopped making them and will only be making the CDG from now on. So I ordered extra bolt heads to fit all the calibers for those actions that I might want to shoot. Might as well get the...

    Where are all the rifle barrel blanks?

    I’ll chime in with a recommendation for K&P barrrls and LRI. I have two of their barrels that LRI spun up ARC profits and they are both lasers, clean easily and the chambering and threading by LRI are top notch.

    Tikka T3 A1 / Barrel - Yuck

    That’s a lot of corrosion, usually indicative of poor maintenance practices, poor storage conditions, corrosive ammonia, etc I’d also suggest cleaning with an abrasive cleaner like JB Bore Paste and seeing how it shoots. Sometimes barrels that look bad still shoot well.

    Vortex 2025?

    I still own the 2 Vortex AMG 6-24s that I bought years ago. Still some of my favorites and one of them is on my NRL Hunter rifle. Great scopes. The only thing lacking was a 2nd turn indicator which led me to miss 10mils high on a match stage- very embarassing and a mistake I never made again.

    Remage Prefit and Piercing Primers

    I'm thinking this rifle had excessive headspace when he installed the Remage barrel (and that the Remage barrel was a barrel nut install). That would have caused the light strikes and probably caused the pierced primer. The excessive headspace caused insufficient contact with the breechface and...

    Rifle Scopes What is your favorite rifle scope?

    My main PRS scope is a Tangent Theta 5-25 with Gen 3 XR reticle, it's got the best glass, best turrets, etc. However I also own and love the 2 Vortex AMG 6-24s with EBR-7B reticle that I have on my NRL Hunter rifle and my 308 training rifle. It's glass is excellent and in many ways I like the...

    Barrrel install

    Another vote for LRI, I have two LRI sourced barrels. I bought a 308 barrel on a K&P blank (LRI stocks and sells K&P barrels) and it is outstanding, both the barrel and the threading//chambering job. My newest barrel is a 30" K&P barrel chambered in 300 Norma Magnum. I haven't shot it yet but...

    Help me pick a scope for my daughter

    It's a bit above your price but I've seen the Athlon Ares ETR UHD 3-18 on Amazon for $720. I have one and have been favorably impressed that for the price, it's a pretty good value. It has a zero stop, the turrets clicks are crisp, the APRS6 FFP IR MIL reticle is usable and good, and the glass...
