    Gunsmithing Feed issue on 98 Mauser

    The problem with the 366 or 375 x 57 is that you start running out of shoulder for positive headspacing.

    Long range elk caliber in a s/a?

    If you provide the recommended 1500 foot pounds, you won't make 600, probably 450. If the short was the only game in town, I'd do a 7-08 with (someone's?) reloads in 150 Partition.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Why open carry?

    The last time I renewed my CPL in Detroit, the wannabe cop clerks were so surly, and fucking with peeps with their chickenshit, that I nearly said F IT right there. I don't need a permit to carry open or concealed! And nobody needs to be saying shit to me about it. Comprend eh?

    F T/R Competition Chamber setup question.

    The OP revived the thread today. My thoughts were a dummy load was not so important, as would be a representative resized load to fit the chamber.

    And how does your fire forming and resizing (die) figure into all these plans?

    Why are militaries going for .338LM instead of 300 magnums?

    As far as bullet type and weight, and their reason for preferring it in the .300 WM.

    Gunsmithing Feed issue on 98 Mauser

    Marine, Although I don't see any larger caliber as an improvement, as the 200 grain Partition kicks ass at 2700, I believe larger might be accomplished without mods to the rifle. The 338 is doable directly with the x57 case. What would you do to run 366 or 375?

    Neck Sizing Problem

    Armor, havin' a bad hair day? In reality, the OPs only problem is a weak wrist. A bolt action is not meant to be operated gingerly. By the way, where is that mean talkin' OP?

    Gunsmithing Feed issue on 98 Mauser

    Peter Paul Mauser used a formula for determining the feed lip profiles according to the dimensions of the cartridge that was to be used. It has to do with the triangular profile of the cartridges as they were stacked atop one another in the magazine. I don't have the formula handy. Do a...

    Neck Sizing Problem

    You're outta line. If anything, like usual, another OP with inadequate info. We know little about your rifle, any mods, etc. You mentioned a new extractor, and although I mentioned an extractor check, you blew past that, without indicating that you have indeed checked it. We tend to quit...
