    Gunsmithing Best place to buy barrels?

    Re: Best place to bye barrels? Accuracy One in Tyrone, PA. Stocks many good blanks. I just picked up a Bartlein from him a while back I couldn't find in stock anywhere else. Nice guy and quick shipping. He does a lot of benchrest stuff and was very helpful. There are many others as well...

    Gunsmithing Lathe chucks

    Re: Lathe chucks I'm in the same boat as you. Picked up 2 Heavy 10's. Right now I have 2-6" 3 jaws. One is a Cushman and the other a no name. And a 6" 4 jaw. Not sure about the shape they are in so I think I might just buy something better. Bison is a decent chuck. If you wanna get rid of...

    Gunsmithing Release agent

    Re: Release agent Clean with alcohol or acetone first. Then Kiwi neutral. Put it on heavy, let it sit for a couple of minutes. Buff/wipe off, repeat again, good to go. Should still be able to feel it on there slightly. Has worked for me a bunch of times. That's weird. Marine Tex Grey -...

    Rifle Scopes Parallax/Ocular Adjustment Question

    I understand how to focus the ocular/diopter the correct way. I also understand how to adjust parallax and check by moving your head to make your POA doesn't move. I recently got a new scope. While fooling around with it briefly today I noticed that if I focused my image with the PA it was a...

    Gunsmithing Stock bedding compound choices?

    Re: Stock bedding compound choices? I have used Marine Tex and Devcon Steel. Both are great. Someone had mentioned MT being stronger than Devcon Steel and from what I remember I think they are right. Both are very close. After 3 years each are holding up equally well. Either way your good to...
