    Re: Bi-Axial "suspension" Bipod Design Joining the debate late, out of my home country for a week or two with no access to my own or anyone elses firearms - forgive me. I like the quick deployment of the harris, I also like the stability of Rempel / Sinclair design - especially in...

    Gunsmithing how much to cut off barrel blank

    Re: how much to cut off barrel blank I usually take an inch off the muzzle but leave the chamber end alone as you will take the belled bore area out when you create counterbore and chamber. However, if you do this, you must ensure you get a true reading for concentricity by using a long...

    .408cheytac

    Re: .408cheytac Shot a 408 improved a couple of years ago, only stretched to 1000 mtrs but it was fun I have to admit. Been toying with the idea of building myself a large cal single shot on a Barnard Chey action.. Still undecided on 375 or 408 and of course the issue of projectile...

    Gunsmithing crowns

    Re: crowns Dial in the barrel to .0001" run out (or as near as it will go) Here are a couple of mine - all these are screw cut with thread protectors, I usually go in .050" deep with the last cuts in .0005" increments to get a real sharp edge to the crown. I think the phrase for...

    Lothar OR Kreiger

    Re: Lothar OR Kreiger I have LW, Krieger, Broughton, Bartlein, Pac Nor and a Brux on my rifles. There is no discernable difference in accuracy in any of the tubes, they all shoot good. LW are definatley harder on the tooling, but maybe they last longer as a result of being harder? Wouldnt...

    Projectiles & New Systems

    Re: Projectiles & New Systems Later thanks, I think even though the twist rate is .9" faster than what I have a few would still be worth trying with a 1-9 tube. Could you advise on availability / shipping outside US - or would you rather discuss via PM / e-mail. Thanks RM
