The 700 VLS is one of the nicer rifles Rem makes. I just wish the LOP was about an inch longer. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase.

uh-oh. The actual answer to post no.1. Which directly correlates to post no. 2. how refreshing.

I think the LH/RH scenerio might work. If it did, it might not require anything but the bushing. The concern would be; no slippage of the bushing while torqueing, and the holding integrity of the made up thread, after torqueing. I am not saying clocking is necessary, and am not crazy about a...

Mr Beggs, Fine job sir. But with all due respect sir, you told us that all that was required was and action wrench and a barrel vise. And you said there was no modifications to the action. respectfully, longshooter

John VM, I take it you are talking to me? I didn't notice mr stiller mentioning l.h. r.h. orientation. As far as holding the bushing, it would be a slight tight fit on the barrel tenon, rotatable with a wrench, perhaps pliars. Being the threads would counter each other, there would not be a...

Could this be a simple threaded adaptor, with a right hand outside thread, left hand inside thread, and a left hand barrel tenon?

On this exercise, I don't know if questions are in order. If they are, my question would be: are the clock positions infinitely adjustable, or are there fixed limitations? And I take it we are talking a screwed barrel assy.

Are you setting up your empty die this way. If you are, eliminate the paper, then set up for camover.

Jettmugg, My perceived explanation of cartridge case deviations is also listed above, in two posts. Our explanations do not substantially differ from one another. Perhaps you should have joined the discussion earlier, instead of joining later, for a sniping oppurtunity. The thing that...

That's nice. Are you going to contribute any more? Or are you just interested in the pissing contest?

Jetmugg, Exactly, just the thing I am showing forth when I say molecular motion. Your interpretation is no different than mine. Just substitute "molecular" for crystalline lattice structure", and we are on the same page following this, as stresses, crowding, temp variations, etc. cause the...

Jetmugg, How'd the meeting go? You know, I have heard you say that you are a metallurgical engineer. Do you know what I think? I think you don't know anything more about brass cartridge cases, than any of the rest of us do. longshooter

Steve M., Thank you for the input. Even though in the strictest sense, we cannot use the term molecule, in a broader sense, we can use it to convey a thought. The idea here is to get people to look inward of the cartridge case, instead of just looking at the outward symptoms. In other words...

Think molecules! I like to look at this from a "molecules moving" type of understanding. When we fire, or resize, the molecules in the case (are moving and) get squeezed together. Then, their natural tendency is to "unsqueeze" their selves from one another, or relieve from their crowded...

Not to mention the blood spilled, and the lives lost, to get us what we have today. Our forefathers are watching, to see if we are going to squander those hard, fought for, gains. There are many that would like to take them away from us with the stroke of a pen. longshooter

gas up fast! Don't worry, the sheiks have already called for a special meeting to raise prices (by lowering output). They have to be the greediest of the greedy. The world is in turmoil, and they are largely responsible, yet they have no concern, nor compassion, for others.

This thing keeps running thru my mind. If the hp of the bullet were not substantial, how would it be able to close the distance on the dragster? I keep thinking hp to weight ratio. I can't shake this thought.

Perhaps a poly barrel needs a certain lead hardness to prevent gas and friction deposits.

HovisKM, It's ok. No problem. Actually, if I could have read your post two years ago, I might have tried lead, and kept an eye on gun functioning, barrel leading etc. It could have helped with more shooting, for less cash. Maybe I still will. I have wondered why poly barrels wouldn't be...
