    Gunsmithing Headspace guages, easy question

    I should be able to use some 260 headspace guages to set the headspace on a 308 savage barrel correct? I see some manufacturers say you can and then some dont say at all. I was going to order some 308 guages, but i have a 260 set at home already. I think they are forster guages.

    Lefty prone shooters - RH/LH bolt?

    This is only true on a bench with solid support to free up your support hand. Otherwise, its 100% false. Put it this way, if what you said was true, all right handed shooters would be shooting left handed guns.

    Gunsmithing Cerakote, how do they do this?

    Some people use plastic wrap when the paint is wet. I'm sure there are other trick though.

    ORIGIN Orders

    Guess I will, didnt want to be that guy, but I havent even finished paying for it yet so I guess I need to do that. Totally forgot about paying the rest, but i thought they were supposed to call or email for payment. No biggie.

    ORIGIN Orders

    Anyone order a lefty with a magnum bolt face and want to trade for a 308 bolt face? Coming to the realization that my prs/match career has ended before it started so a 7saum would be better for future use.

    Rifle Scopes GAP Deal on Bushnell LRHS Scopes

    Got mine the other day. Put it on the CZ 22 for the time although itll probably go on the 700 270 for hunting season if the new rifle doesnt get finished before then.

    How many were there? I traded some work with my mom. So she got me one. Can you believe people want to charge $3500 to epoxy a garage floor in a brand new house?

    Harris ADM Mount

    Just a heads up because i was looking at the adm mount as well. The really right stuff pro mount works with both picatinny and arca rails. I don't have any arca rails, but no reason to limit yourself.

    Source for a LH 700 S/A receiver?

    GunBroker has some. There was a guy in the group buy section that had some. That being said, if you are going to pay a gunsmith to true it up and everything, you might as well just buy a bighorn origin. Unless you are getting the family discount of course. At $825, I don't think you can get a...
