    Is this another guy that the rests are a side business in his basement that he devotes 5 hours a week to, and wont put up a website? Or is he a full on legitimate U.S. business with a website and an actual building. This is important to me lol

    Barrel installation question

    It's the traditional Remington bdl blind magazine componentry. At this time, my loads haven't reached the oal that would prohibit it from loading into that mag yet. I have another round of load development coming up for it so we shall see if I have to go out longer than mag length oal.

    Barrel installation question

    I load kind of quick, but I wouldn't say it's fast at all. Shooting 6.5 creed.

    Barrel installation question

    Oh I see what you're saying; that this is only for a coned bolt. No, I have a standard issue 700 bolt-no coning. I'll try to take some pictures. Gotta get creative.

    Barrel installation question

    I tried to take pictures but it just doesn't show enough. Here's what I'm working with. See the flat that my arrow's pointing to? I have that flat, but mine's little wider there than the ratio of flat to chamfer shown in your original artwork. My rounds dont jam up in there often but they...

    Barrel installation question

    I ask because there's a little space where a loaded cartridge can sit, when I push the bolt forward that makes the tip of the bullet smash into that 'face' if you will of the barrel. Not sure how a coned bolt would help me. And there's no feel lips per se because it's a blind magazine.

    Barrel installation question

    I have a question about installing a barrel in an action. When you chamber a barrel and thread it in, I wonder why before it's threaded in, gunsmiths dont chamfer that face of the barrel so that bullets dont smash into that flat there when chambering. Is that a thing?

    Button rifled barrel question

    Would anyone know where the tooling marks that are perpendicular to the bore axis come from on a button barrel by chance? I always thought once you pulled the button through the bore was totally and completely smoothed out; is that not the case?

    McMillan benchrest record question from a history buff

    Hey guys, I'm a history nut and love reading about the ways things used to be. (I think because I admire the old school generations before me) Would anyone have any idea what rifle/barrel/stock and reloading methods were used by Mac McMillan to set his record in 1973 by chance? I can't find a...

    Front joystick rest options

    Anyone know of any intermediate quality/price front joystick rest options that are above the little Caldwell joystick rest for $235 (dont trust it) and the 3000 dollar jewel encrusted super rare aluminum models (even though aluminum is the 3rd most abundant element in the earth's crust) made in...

    Anyone Interested in Buying Benchrest.com?

    No please GOD dont put this place under that site... That site is FULL of glitches and my computer has all SORTS of problems with it, not to mention their vetting process is so unnecessarily intrusive.

    Wipeout

    Most people don't do long, thorough testing with bore chemicals because it's a boring, mundane subject. I am also surprised to still see how many people don't borescope. I can tell you this from cleaning barrels since the early 90's, that quite a few chemicals out there will produce a colored...
