    PVA John Hancock Rifle Status

    So I may have missed the answer, but what’s the word on people’s JHR they’ve been waiting forever on? It’s been stated in this thread by other industry folks that the actions are readily available, you’ve stated you have a surplus of barrel blanks available, I can find every color of KRG Bravo...

    Gunsmithing Tikka T3 Tenon

    When I did my Tikka awhile back I made my tenon .980” in length. From the front of the action to the extractor on the bolt measured .988”, so there’s .008” of clearance.

    Patriot valley turn time

    The parts supply thing is pure bullshit and an outright lie. I can order an ARC Nucleus or KRG Bravo right now and have it within roughly a week. Even assuming ARC has to make the action, that doesn’t take ANYWHERE near a year. This problem isn’t with ARC. Chad Dixon at LRI doesn’t have issues...

    Gunsmithing 1976 R700 from 243 to 6.5CM

    I took off a ‘77 barrel a few months back and made it into a 450 Bushmaster for Ohio hunting. I ended up chucking it in the lathe and cutting a relief cut in the barrel and it came right off. I wasn’t equipped to get all those years of corrosion loose via the normal method. Also, the 40 year old...

    Nightforce NXS 2.5-10x42 w/ Illuminated IHR Reticle

    I would describe it as not very fine: in my opinion it’s quite easy to pick up even in heavy wooded areas.

    Patriot valley turn time

    I’m just trying to understand. Literally every reputable smith out there can make a barrel that shoots. Why deal with PVA? If I knew customers were still waiting for barrel/barreled action orders from a year ago I’d feel like a piece of shit for placing a barrel order today and receiving it...

    Gunsmithing 1st time using LRI

    I just sent a McMillan stock to LRI last week to have the barrel channel opened up to fit a Proof. McMillan said 12 weeks. LRI had it done in 4 days and it’s now on it’s way back. Why people use any place else is beyond me. I read the Patriot Valley thread and just laugh... Status updates...
