    Building an action

    I have several receivers that I made and are now built into rifles from 260 Rem to 50 BMG The last operation I would do was cut the tenon thread in the receivers due to distortions from metal removal like ejection port, magazine opening. What material are you using? What will the finished...

    Sounds like it's a rob Peter to pay Paul business.

    Case Separation

    Are you neck sizing or full length resizing with each reload?

    ACCURACY INTL 2.0 on a 30-06 long action?

    Make a tool like this to bend magazine lips, this one I made for tuning High Standard magazines, but will work on a mags. The slot is .030

    7mm RM... Marginally or significantly more capable then .260?

    The gain is closer to 7% in case capacity and velocity gains. 260 Rem. has 53.5 grains of water, the Ackley has 57.4 grains.

    7mm RM... Marginally or significantly more capable then .260?

    My receiver is a based on the Rem. 700 that I made and have no issues with feeding.

    260Rem is awesome!!

    A 260 and a 6.5mm are both the same, bullets measure .264

    7mm RM... Marginally or significantly more capable then .260?

    I am shooting a 260Ai using 123 smk's with a velocity of 3,000+ from a 27" Shilen barrel. Using 260 Lapua brass, the shell on the left in the photo is a 260 ready for fire forming, and you can see the OAL is much longer the form Ackley shell on the right.

    Anyone seen these bullets?

    These are Lapua's I had laying around for years.

    The barrel on my friends tr.net rifle which he waited 2 years for was only torqued to approximately 5-10 ft lbs. The reason why it was loose was due to the threads being .025 undersize along with the thread engagement into the receiver being 2 threads short. Instead of the 11/16" engagement...

    All you wanabe snipers only wish you could do the work that tr.net does. If Mark in Florida has someone hold his rifle while he grabs the barrel of the tr.net rifle he owns, and turns it counterclockwise with a sudden jerk there's a chance the barrel then can be unscrewed. I tried this with...

    TR.net does some outstanding machine work which you won't find anywhere else. Maybe someone can enlarge this photo so you can really see the close tolerance machining. I am not sure if it's a 60 deg. American vee thread or a 45 deg. buttress thread.

    (CLOSED) **ROUND3 !!** (100YARD+) , Bolt-Action, 6group, 30round SHOOTOUT!

    There is a Redding .259 bushing in that die and what the tool does is deprime and resize the neck for loading again. It does not full length or bump the shoulder back, as I can easily get 1/2 dozen loading before I get a bolt click and then it's time to bump the shoulder back .001

    I don't know what your throat angle is, mine is 1.5 deg. and a 8 ogive bullet will touch the lands at 2.156 oal. I load mine 2.161 (.005 into the lands) .262 neck and I run .0015 neck clearance. Are you fire forming 220 Russian cases? Get yourself a nut cracker neck sizer/de-primer die like...

    (CLOSED) **ROUND3 !!** (100YARD+) , Bolt-Action, 6group, 30round SHOOTOUT!

    Lazer, I changed barrels a Lilja to a Shilen the other day and I had to adjust my scope with another target to the left of the one I shot. After shooting target 1 I readjusted the scope 5 clicks down and 2 clicks left. Target 3 was shot into a head wind and also blowing to the east at this...

    (CLOSED) **ROUND3 !!** (100YARD+) , Bolt-Action, 6group, 30round SHOOTOUT!

    This target should agg in the .2's or close to it, missed the wind readings on my 3rd group. Load was Hollister 66 fb with 29 gr. of N133 6 PPC.

    (CLOSED) **ROUND3 !!** (100YARD+) , Bolt-Action, 6group, 30round SHOOTOUT!

    With a scale I figured it to be around .335 group. I tried shooting a 6 target group the day before, but at my age I had a hard time seeing the cross hairs. The cross hairs on a 36x Leupold scope are 1/16" at 100 yards and I had to switch scopes the next day to a 36x Sightron with 1/8" dot...

    Why no love for Shilen barrels?

    Over the years I have used several Shilen barrels with very good results, but last year 1 bought 2 6.5 cal. barrels which I chambered in 260 Rem. Both of those 6.5 barrels took about 400 rounds to settle in and were coppering like all hell. Using a bore scope you could see the copper streaking...

    Did someone say they wanted to see 6mm groups? This was shot over the weekend, wanted to agg in the 2's but the weather was not favorable. Receiver is a Hall B with a Lilja barrel in 6ppc .261 neck bullets were Euber 65 gr. fb 28.5 gr. powder VV N 133
