    Gunsmithing Savage Bolt slop fix?

    Look around your industrial supply houses, bearings, belts, etc. Try to pick up the smallest tube of open gear lube, (some call it crater grease), Use VERY sparingly. Back of bolt lugs, primary extraction ramp, and firing pin cocking ramp. It won't help the bolt stroke, but it will help the...

    Unissued Garand Eye Candy

    If you guys have any way to source the vapor paper that bearings are shipped in it really helps preserve things in the safe. Many parts, Cat Cummins, bearings, etc are shipped in the stuff. I put it on the floor and shelves, also in ammo cans. Maybe it will help. Really nice rifle.

    Hornady brass explosion

    If all the above doesn't get this resolved, do check for and clean for a carbon ring. I have had the mysterious heavy recoil before at starting loads, case separation, bad bolt lift, weird fliers. All I can figure is the carbon hangs up the bullet release from the throat/case. I had to reset...

    Savage 338 Issue - Need some help

    Check out the previously shared tips above. I would then make dang sure the chamber is squeaky (brake clean and a 12 gauge brush works for me) clean. Any sizing wax or lube from any source will cause a big issue with this cartridge. Lots of bolt thrust. I have one of these, First-hand mistake...

    Help with my Enfield

    I am wondering regardless of bore diameter, the groove diameter is what dictates bullet od, ie. 30 cal bore plus .004 on each side = .308. .303 rifle have .311-.314 grooves ( or so I understand). Point being .308 may be the bore size, but if the bullet doesn't fit or seal the bore of the...

    30-06 still relevant?

    If the brass is weight sorted +- 1 gr., you will have something. If run of the mill bulk, not so much. Lapua has stupid consistent weights for their cases, and it really shoots better at LR, ELR. My 2 cents... I use Win. brass too, sorted with the MV for that batch on the box. Remembering to...

    Ruined Kestrel by bad batteries

    I have a 4500Nv with the Horus software, Yep outdated, but it is still going. The weather data gathering is adjustable in the settings, I set it to 2 hr intervals, the batteries last a year or so. I do change batteries when the display is in the 40% range. Too expensive to run out of battery...
