    Remington MSR / PSR bolts

    I got a chance to complete a critical step. The locating pins were successfully located and seated! Blended in nicely with the outer surface. I checked these with a couple bolt heads and everything lined up. I also finished the fixture to adjust the bolt handles for proper timing, but ran out...

    Remington MSR / PSR bolts

    It's coming along. Work seems to get in the way, as it does for all of us. I've carved out some time at the end of this month. I expect to get the locating pins set and metal prepped. Need to decide on a place for DLC coating.

    Remington MSR / PSR bolts

    Next step is to work out a fixture to correctly position and drill for the pin that correctly orients the bolt head. After that, some function testing and metal prep.

    Remington MSR / PSR bolts

    I finally worked out a fixture to cut the firing pin head ramp (not sure of the correct nomenclature of that feature). Anyway, I'm satisfied with the outcome. However the initial notch in the 3D model appears to be cut .060" deeper and possibly slightly wider. Initial test seems to suggest the...

    Remington MSR / PSR bolts

    100% agree, and I've been spending significant time making corrections. I would love any info you could share. I'm currently working up a jig to time the handle to the body. I should have some updates by the end of the weekend.

    Remington MSR / PSR bolts

    Not to hijack the original thread, but I've made some progress on getting some bolt bodies completed. I have the bolt handle, bolt knob, and bolt head retaining pin completed. I just have a few machining operations to complete on the bolt body. Essentially the helical cut where the cocking piece...

    Rifle Scopes Calling my Greek snipers...

    I appreciate all the help! I'll be heading down to Greece later this summer to visit family. One if my cousins may have a contact that could provide some insight on this super secret squirrel reticle 🤣 Another way may be to look up NSN numbers for their scopes. It may provide a description or...

    Rifle Scopes Calling my Greek snipers...

    I'm looking for some info on which specific model of Kahles scope the Hellenic Army is running on their SSG M1 sniper rifles. From some internet photos is appears to be 624i. Any specifics on which reticle is being used would be greatly appreciated!

    Here's what I found regarding the reticle. According to Kahles: "The reticle is the reticle 111 which was made solely for the US Army and for snipers. Zero in at 500 yards, one click equals ¼ MOA (minute of angle). The distance between the stadia lines are 19 inches at that particular distance...
