    Thumbhole or Pistol Grip for AICS Chassis?

    I bought one of the last AI chassis before they went to the AT chassis. Of course it came with the ugly thumbhole skins so I found a new set of Victor skins in the PX section and put them on before ever mounting the barrel and action. My biggest problem with the AICS was looks with the thumbhole...

    I’ve been reading some older threads on this method and think I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the info.

    Collet neck dies

    Padom I’ll consider that. My main concern is having very low runout and with the Lee Collet Dies I could eliminate runout.

    Collet neck dies

    Ive used Lee Collet Dies to neck size brass for reloading for years however they don’t make a “stock” die for many calibers and ordering a custom die is $75 so before I order one I’d like to know if there are any other collet dies out there other than Lee. Lee dies just Work but they aren’t a...

    Bipod for Vudoo?

    The Harris attaches to your sling stud. I’m used to the Harris. There may be advantages to the Atlas but the Harris works so well that I don’t see spending the extra $ for the Atlas.

    Ruger single six .22/.22mag

    From what I’ve seen it will bring the same as their non anniversary models. I’ve seen blued models used for $350-400. I bought a new one last year for $400ish. Great revolvers.

    SB Body die?

    My favorite method for sizing is to bump the shoulder with a Redding body die then, following the instructions from Lee, run the cases through the Lee Collet Dies. Takes all the runout out of the necks and gives the right amount of tension. The problem is they don’t make the collet die in the...

    Cz 455 mount ?

    The best is Murphy’s. Pricey. Mid line is EGW and works great. Dip is fine and least expensive way to go. Pick your poison. Seekins rings are my fav. I think I used lows on my Cz and found some used ones for under a hundred.

    Any problems with sizing fired brass

    Biggest reason to clean brass is to cut down on wear and tear on sizing dies and to keep from scratching them. If you’re wet tumbling your brass most guys use a de capping die to punch the primer, which it sounds like you are probably doing. It’s hard to keep from tumbling brass twice but I’d...

    Load Development in 10degF and temp sensitivity

    I use H4350 in my .260 and three years ago now I was doing load Development. H4350 is supposed to be the LEAST temperature sensitive of any powder however as the temperatures rose my load was causing pressure signs so I had to back down half a grain. I live in Kansas so temps were in the 10-30...

    Rimfire trainer optic and accuracy suggestions?

    For under a grand for a bolt gun the only choice you have IS Cz. My first .22 target rifle was a Cz 455 Varmint trainer in a Manners stock. It shot good and there’s plenty of upgrades for them out there but, as a trainer, it was too light to replicate my centerfire rifle. They shoot well enough...

    What hand or bench priming system do you use?

    A lot of shooters have a Dillon on their bench as well as their favorite single stage press. My hand primer shot craps so I started using my Dillon 550B priming system and have never looked back. Dillon priming system is first rate.

    Rimfire trainer optic and accuracy suggestions?

    I’m using the Stiller 2500 repeater action in a Manners T4 A stock and Krieger barrel. Flatland 1 built it and I talked him out of it. I really like the rifle and will keep it short of financial crisis but it would be nice to be able to use the larger mags like the Vudoo uses. But... the nice...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex choices

    There are Gen I Razors however they aren't left over in most cases. Vortex still makes the Gen I Razor with 10 mil turrets. I've owned gen I and II PST, and Gen I and II Razors. I never even unboxed the Gen II PST because I had waited for it for so long that I ended up buying a different...

    Gunsmithing Want trigger recommendation

    Two Calvin Elites and a Jewel. My favorite is the Jewel but both CEs Work great and are better than any other trigger I’ve used.

    I have Mitutoyo dial calipers I bought used off Ebay and they work great. I take care of them. We use Mitutoyo digitals at work and they go through many hands and have NOT been taken care of yet keep working and are accurate and repeatable.
