Join the contest SubscribeChad, with removing a few thousands of material off, it seems you're leaving the bare metal exposed. Is there a standard finish you apply on them? Or are these special ordered with a custom finish for your client?
I wish I would have grabbed a couple when CDNN blew them out for cheap. I was going to sell my SPR but I think I'll hang on to it and eventually rebarrel it to a more desirable caliber.Love these actions, I have 3. I consider them much superior to rem700s...

Chad, will the M70/SPR action be barreled in 6br/dasher and run reliably? I have one that I'm toying on sending to you all for a barrel(and hopefully a DBM when you get yours done) and have it narrowed down to 6br, 6x47 or 6 5x47.
Watching how you program and making people figure out why should be a part of all CNC machining programs. It looks like you have your programs streamlined to knock out high quality work at high speed. Productivity and quality often dont go hand in hand. I feel you maybe driving the industry.
The gun started out shooting groups anywhere between 5/8" and 3/4", but over time it seems to shoot better and better.
No, the lock times vary quite a lot. Snap in a little with a match 700, and then go take a few shots with a Mauser or Arisaka. The difference will be apparent.Lock time shouldn't be any different than a Rem 700 variant, they're both striker fired bolt actions right? There are fewer triggers available for the Win 70, but the stock Winchester 70 trigger is an excellent trigger- one of my main rifles I shoot in matches in an FN SPR action in 6.5 CM and I've been running the stock trigger since I got the rifle in 2010. I'll even go so far as to say I think the Win 70 factory trigger is one of the best and easiest to adjust single stage triggers out there.

Yeah, it used to be. The reason it doesn’t hold that many of our records now is because we are all shooting equally accurate rifles, but we have DBM and no bolt to run. At least for Course, it’s not even close. Sure, a REALLY good bolt gunner can keep up, but he sure as shit doesn’t have as much time to ponder sight picture, or solve the odd problem, as I do.I see your point- I forgot about the Mauser or say the Springfield 1903 having longer lock times (I've never handled an Arisaka). I don't feel like the Win 70 lock time is longer than a Rem 700. Firing pin travel is very similar and I don't think the strikers have a huge weight difference between Rem 700 and Win 70. Plus like Chad said, the Win 70 used to be the king of match rifle across the course NRA Highpower competition and I don't think they would have won so much if the lock time was terrible.

Yet the appeal of the M70 remains...
The locktime of even the fasted AR triggers is in the 4-5 ms time, which is pretty horrible, yet we shoot them pretty accurately.
Does your HAAS not track your original work origins through the rotary axes with G68.2?
Why do you probe it again once it’s rotated?
We do it all the time with G68.2 (Tilted Working Plane) for 3+2, and G43.4 (Tool Tip Point Control) for full simultaneous 5 axis.It has to do with multiple work offsets being applied to various features. Dynamic work offsets work when using a single offset with rotated planes. I'm calling stuff out individually. Haas does not have a canned cycle to self orientate a part to a particular plane. You can rotate planes all day which is how you can literally slap a vise onto a table and not even worry about indicating it in (something I still cannot bring myself to do).
To my knowledge, nobody does. That was the real work; getting the macro syntax and trig functions to work predictably and reliably.
Many, many late hours. . .
One has to understand what I'm doing is not "making a part". That is far easier because you actually get to define where things go. Here, I am working with something existing and having to "find it" and rework it with a minimalist strategy always being at the forefront.
Great question.

the machine needs to have a very good static alignment and good pitch comp tables to be accurate in doing it, but that all we use, for everything from farm equipment to aerospace parts.
