    Anyone reaming dies???

    I hear you about the press but I can't bring myself to throw a pre threaded blank in the 3 jaw, insert the reamer and ignore it wobbling around.

    Question regarding Picatinny rail install

    Perry, factory actions and barrels are not straight, some are not even close. Aftermarket rails usually are. Ken Farrell makes good rails and they come in zero moa for your rem 700. By the sounds of it you need more than 20 minutes to zero at 100. If so, the barrel is likely the worst part of...

    Montana 1999 SS SA

    Boyd, I didn't hotlink thinking it was against the board rules to hotlink to a non-sponsor business. 6 years, boggles the mind. I checked the price, $6500 for an action. I'm still laughing.

    Rimfire - Marlin 782 light strike

    I should have given more detail. This model is not that simple. The bolt assembly has a striker sleeve that is held in place by a single screw. This sleeve is what the striker spring pushes on. In the pic above, the "bolt shroud", not sure what marlin calls it, is hitting the sleeve. Not a...

    Rimfire - Marlin 782 light strike

    Pressure is on, hunt camp owner sends me a 782, intemittent fire. I'm not a rimfire guy but I suspect that the rear firing pin is too short, peened where the striker is hitting it. In this pic, the tip is barely protruding and the cocking pin is a long ways from the cocking cam. There seems to...

    Quadlite ejector

    I called RPA in England, the dealer I was thinking of does not sell RPA. The rep knew what he was talking about and is sending a new ejector just in case. I will diagnose this and let him know. This action was never used. As soon as I examined the action before installing the barrel I...

    Quadlite ejector

    Blurry but the shiny object is the ejector. It floats and when the bolt is pulled back, it hits the bolt release and this moves the ejector ahead flicking out the case. Problem is, this is too large and when slid back, as shown, the diameter is too large for the action and the bolt will not...

    Action with set back lug recesses, what would you do?

    How did you measure the lug set back? You can true it like a rem700.

    there's GOT to be a better way....

    Would have to agree with 4mesh on this one. I would have sharpened the angle instead of reducing it and did less work yet kept more flat on the brake. Of course this isn't criticism just a different "artistic" method. It would be a boring world if we all did things the same.

    Does anybody have

    Let me get this straight. You use less than a 1/2 teaspoon of BN powder but you need to buy it by the gallon? Looks like a guy needs to buy some off another shooter. What is the process you use to coat a barrel?

    I have to try this, yes there are apps for levels. I wonder if I could calibrate my phone to my level?

    machinist's level

    I check mine too often I guess, I say that because I never have to adjust it anymore. Pure luck I'm sure. Mine is around 2500 lbs and has 6 jack screws. I picked up a Russian level from Enco, seems to work. Tim, this reminds me of a something I read about a Doctor, possibly here?. He told...

    Pm1440hd

    I have one. Nice design but chinese junk metal. Bearings gone almost instantly, all of them. Gears are not polished and produce metal finings so the unsealed bearings have no chance. I highly doubt any chinese lathe is different. Grizzly would be the exact same lathe with a different paint...

    Old Savage Action in New Palma Stock

    Ignore the holes in the stock. Pillar bed it making new holes in the stock. The rear screw pillar will be cut out for the sear.

    Savage Rebarrel

    The base holes are fine. They are drilled and tapped in gang tooling at the same time as the action screws. They do warp some from heat treating but never any amount you would have an issue with. The barrel, barrel nut, recoil lug and scope and mounting are the possibilities.
